Eighty-five percent of visitors to Macau's casinos plan to maintain or increase their gambling budgets
The survey included 800 residents from mainland China who have experience gambling in Macau. Approximately 78% of those surveyed indicated they plan to return to the city by the first quarter of 2025, a slight decrease of 4% compared to the 2023 survey results. However, the number of respondents who intend to visit Macau at least twice in the coming year rose significantly, from 57% to 70%.
According to CLSA, the city can expect an influx of premium players next year. This demographic tends to favor high betting limits and primarily uses cash for their wagers.
The CRR survey also revealed that nearly half of the respondents do not plan to gamble anywhere other than Macau. Among those willing to consider other destinations, Singapore was the most frequently mentioned alternative.
Forty percent of participants admitted that their gambling budget exceeds $3,460 (approximately 309,946 rubles). Additionally, 97% of respondents reported feeling safe while traveling in Macau, and 65% view the city as the most attractive shopping destination.
The study found that 56% of Chinese respondents plan to visit at least two integrated resorts during their next trips to Macau. Sands China emerged as the most popular casino operator, while the Venetian Macao was identified as the most appealing gambling venue.
Notably, China has expanded the number of cities eligible for individual visas to Macau, a move that is expected to benefit local casinos.
