Americans wagered about $165 billion last year with the online sportsbook apps on their phones and laptops. That’s up from about $7 billion in 2018.
Roughly 1 in 5 Americans use the apps, including half of men between the ages of 18 and 49.
Are you one of them? The Enquirer would like to talk to you for a story we’re writing about the rapid growth of online sportsbooks and prediction markets. We want to hear from people who use the apps often or occasionally, who worry or don’t worry about the popularity of online gambling, and who spend a lot or a little betting on sports or prediction markets.
