Monthly revenue reports from Pennsylvania and New Jersey show record revenues from online gaming in the former and near-record revenues in the latter.
The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board reported revenue of $159.5 million from iGaming, a monthly record and a year-over-year increase of 41.5 percent. It contributed to overall revenues from all forms of gambling that totaled $476,278,004, a year-over-year increase of 6.2 percent.
Sports betting revenue in September was $36.6 million from a handle of $726.3 million, a decline of 7.2 percent from 2022.
In New Jersey, online casinos posted their second-highest revenue grossing month ever in September, narrowly missing the record set earlier this year. According to the state Division of Gaming Enforcement, New Jersey online casinos generated just under $163.8 million last month, a 21.1 percent year-over-year increase compared to September 2022.
September’s results are less than $2 million short of the $165.7 million posted in March, which is the largest monthly state online casino revenue in the 10 years of legal iGaming.
