Specifically, SELAE has highlighted the “good behavior” of National Lottery, EuroMillions and Lototurf. “The consolidation of the economic recovery, as well as the strategy of innovation and development of its games, equipment or products in recent years has allowed the sales of lotteries to maintain an upward trend,” the company said.

Regarding the National Lottery, it has indicated that it remains as “the most relevant game” for the public company and sales increased by more than 3.4%. Particularly noteworthy are the results of Thursday’s raffles, with a 5.7% increase.

In addition, the most important draw of the year, the Christmas Lottery, increased its sales for the fourth consecutive year, so that turnover grew by 3.25% and almost reached 2,760 million euros.

As for the rest of lotuses, SELAE has detailed that La Primitiva experienced a decrease of 6.23%, “mainly due to the fact that the product has already reached its maturation period, so that improvements are currently being analyzed for the game”. BonoLoto maintained its sales with respect to the previous year, also with a slight decrease of 0.6%. El Gordo de la Primitiva experienced, on the other hand, a decrease of 4.3%.

For its part, the behavior produced in sports betting recorded positive data in the horse bet Lototurf, with a rise of more than 10%. The rest of the sports bets decreased: La Quiniela, 10.8%; El Quinigol, 6% and Quíntuple Plus, 14%.

Finally, SELAE has shown that online sales presented an “important” increase of 17% over the previous year and reached 135 million euros, which is 1.52% of the total sale of Lotteries.
