Lithuanian GGR reaches €200.6m
Key Points
Lithuania's Ministry of Finance has released the nation's GGR results for the first nine months of 2025
The nation has recorded an overall revenue of €200.6m for the period
Remote revenues also rose by 19.7% year-on-year, with total land-based visitor statistics also up

Lithuania's Gaming Supervision Service under the Ministry of Finance has unveiled the latest financial results from the nation's gambling industry - with gross gaming revenues from 2025's first three quarters accumulating to a figure of €200.6m ($231.4m).

Indeed, while the Lithuanian Governmental body has not specified whether this figure represents a rise overall in comparison to results from the year prior, it has highlighted that remote gambling revenues - which account for €147m of the overall figure - rose 19.7% during the nine-month period.

The remaining GGR figure recorded in the Lithuanian market for this year-to-date was accounted for by the nation's land-based gambling sector, which generated €53.6m during the year's first three quarters. During that time, total visitor figures in the land-based sector rose by 2.4% year-on-year.

Regarding winnings, players in Lithuania enjoyed a total €67.9m in payouts during the first three quarters of 2025, with €120.6m of distributed lottery tickets also being recorded during the timeframe - up 13.7%. Moreover, industry taxation for the nine-month period amounted to €64.6m, composed of €42.4m by gambling operators and €22.1m by lottery operators.

This latest update falls behind Lithuania's phased ban on gambling advertising, which began staggered implementation in July of this year following near-unanimous governmental approval in November of 2024. In the wake of this update, the nation's Gambling Supervision Service also updated its age and safety rules last month, effective immediately banning any persons under the age of 21 from engaging with gambling.

Elsewhere, also in October the Gaming Control Authority of Lithuania officially barred four URLs from operating in its online market - including a Curaçao-based company operating globally under a Curaçao licence.
