Danish gross gaming revenue came to DKK525m (£59.2m/€70.5m) in March, a rise of 29.6% compared to March 2021, thanks mostly to the return of land-based gaming.
However, this was down by 2.3% from February.
Online casino revenue came to DKK226m for the month. This was up 5.6% from February, but was a decrease of 7.3% year-on-year.
Sports betting accounted for DKK155m of the total revenue, a decrease of 15.7% from the previous month and 3.7% from March 2021.
Elsewhere, slot halls performed similarly to February, rising by just DKK1m to DKK110m. Due to the Covid-19 lockdowns in 2021, the sector took in no revenue in March of that year.
Land-based casino made up the remaining DKK34m in revenue, rising by 0.9% from the previous month. Again this sector was closed for all of March 2021.
