CFG Reports Super Bowl Wagers to Hit $6.4 Billion, Illegal Operators Set to Dominate
According to Yield Sec's data, the legal online industry will account for just $1.6 billion (25%) of total betting volume on the Super Bowl 2025, demonstrating the continued dominance by illegal online gambling across the U.S. Illegal operators are set to siphon nearly $5 billion of taxable wagering away from the marketplace.
This year, Yield Sec's pre-event data highlights the "Taylor Swift Effect", now in its second year across Super Bowl betting. Illegal gambling operators have been pushing Taylor Swift -themed "prop bets" and novelty bets, such as 'Will Taylor Swift be showing a pregnancy bump at the Super Bowl?' to capture audience attention and interaction through social media and chat apps.
In 2024, 21% of females bet on the Super Bowl. Yield Sec estimates that female betting engagement will increase this year and reach 25% of all engagement on the event.
