Paddy Power and Betfair owner Flutter Entertainment has reported a 30% rise in revenues to €1.45 billion in the third quarter of 2020.
Flutter said average daily customers grew 41% in the three months to the end of September with double-digit growth across all key regions as sports recommenced following Covid disruptions.

Flutter merged with Canada’s Stars Group, owner of Pokerstars and Skybet, in May, creating the world’s biggest betting business.
In Ireland and Britain, Paddy Power turnover rose 32% while SBG’s was up 26%. In Australia, the company recorded a 76% rise in revenues.
