Legal Sports Betting Revenue Tracker – Sportsbook Revenue By State
As state gaming commissions release their monthly reports, we keep track of the US sportsbook revenue by state. Helpful to predict future industry numbers, this legal sports betting revenue tracker offers a view into the multi-billion-dollar industry.
- The states with sports betting have different methods for distributing data. But this page is updated as needed to consolidate the data for the ease of understanding.
Don’t leave making money just up to the sportsbooks. Earn your winnings at Bovada, which is one of the highest-producing sportsbooks for US players in terms of money. And we’re not talking about poker rooms or the casino, even though Bovada has them too. Whether playing in the NFL Pick Em Tournament, filling out their March Madness Contest brackets, or taking it one game at a time, they make betting fun. Plus, they pay out players in seconds, allowing you to get your winnings instantly.

Sports Betting Revenue By State
Regulated sports betting exists in almost the entire country, though not every state reports their handle or winnings. With legal sports betting everywhere, we’ve compiled monthly revenue reports from states’ gaming commissions to show a look into how much revenue sportsbooks in the US make.
- The first year for each state may not represent an entire calendar year, as their numbers start when they launched that year.
- Even though Nevada previously had sports betting, we started compiling in June 2018 – the first full month after the repeal of PASPA.
- All states are accurate through 2024, with 2025 sports betting revenue filtering in through the summer.
