France’s ANJ reported a 16% rise in online sports betting revenue in the first half of 2024, to €871m, alongside a 24% increase in wagers to €5,200m. During Euro 2024, French operators recorded €650m in bets, slightly below the 2021 tournament; the regulator said operators complied with its call for moderation in marketing.
