All segments of the market – casino-hotels, iGaming, and sports betting – experienced year-over-year growth, reflecting a steady expansion through the second quarter.
Casino Revenue Rises Despite Mixed Sub-Sector Performance
Revenue from land-based casino-hotels reached $259 million in June, growing 6.1% compared to the same period last year.
While table games revenue surged 26.9% to $76.2 million, slot machine revenue—the casino sector’s largest sub-segment—declined slightly by 0.7% to $182.8 million.
Borgata led all casino properties with $76.7 million in casino win, marking a robust 19.4% increase.
Ocean Casino followed with a notable 30.1% jump to $43.5 million, and Caesars posted $20.5 million, up 7.4%.
In contrast, Hard Rock Atlantic City saw a 5.5% decline, closing June at $45.8 million.
iGaming Sector Continues to Drive Revenue Growth
Online gaming remained a major growth engine, with iGaming revenue climbing 23.5% year-on-year to $230.7 million.
“Other authorized games” contributed the vast majority at $228 million, while peer-to-peer games added $2.7 million, reflecting a 9.4% increase.

Sports Betting Booms with Online Wagers
Sports betting revenue reached $91.9 million in June, representing a 52.9% year-on-year increase.
Nearly all of it—$91.2 million—came from online platforms, while retail sportsbooks generated just $600,000, down 48.5%.
FanDuel again led the market with $35.8 million in sports betting revenue, up 22.9%.
DraftKings earned $24.3 million, marking a 69.2% surge, and BetFanatics posted a staggering 571.3% increase to $12 million in mobile revenue.

Year-to-date, New Jersey’s handle stands above $6 billion, with $558.2 million in revenue and a hold rate of 9.2%.
Outlook for Q3 Remains Strong
Although June’s revenue fell short of May’s record-breaking $614.7 million, the underlying trends remain positive.
In May, iGaming and sports betting surged by 28.5% and 30.2%, respectively, with casinos growing 10.9%.
Despite the month-over-month decline, stakeholders remain confident heading into Q3, especially with the NFL season and potential new product rollouts on the horizon.
New Jersey’s gaming market continues to benefit from regulatory innovation and consumer appetite for digital platforms, positioning the state as a leader in the U.S. gambling industry.
