The state of New Jersey revealed this week that online gaming revenues set an all-time record last month, as revenues hit $118.7 million for the month.
Total revenues across all verticals hit $450.6 million, up 74% from last year and up 14.7% from the month prior.
The numbers were stronger due to reduced Covid-19 protocols as well as the opening of land casinos and sportsbooks. Last year casinos closed in the spring and didn't reopen until July, but when they did, heavy restrictions were in place.
Sportsbetting numbers were also up, as most leagues were in play this summer, whereas last year they were heavily reduced.
It's entirely possible that the casino industry in New Jersey will be in for a rough autumn though, as the Delta variant surges throughout the country, potentially resulting in more restrictions or closures.
