DraftKings and FanDuel Lead the Way as NJ Online Casinos Post Second-Best Month Ever

The New Jersey online casino revenue figures are in. While they didn’t exceed March’s $197.2 million, they still notched $187.9 million, representing the second-highest monthly total in New Jersey online casino history. 

The $187.9 million, in addition to being the second-highest, also represented a year-over-year increase of 18.2%. 

Now, through four months, New Jersey has generated more than three-quarters of a billion dollars, with $750.7 million. These figures are already ahead by 21.2% compared to last year’s mark, which generated $1.92 billion. 

The $1.92 billion in 2023 is the single-year record, breaking 2022’s mark of $1.66 billion.

New Jersey is on pace for well over $2.2 billion at this rate. 

Additionally, the state collected nearly $113 million in taxes, and in April, it got $28.3 million. 

In New Jersey, the various gaming venues are taxed differently: 

  • Retail casinos (8%)
