Sports wagering revenue reached $102.5m, a 30.2% increase. FanDuel again topped the list with $44.3m (+20.8%), while DraftKings earned $28.3m (+28.1%).
BetFanatics, though smaller in volume, recorded a 206.8% increase to $6.2m. The total sports betting handle for May exceeded $1bn, with $967.1m placed online.
The May results represent a sharp recovery from April 2025, when total gaming revenue rose just 5% to $536.6m.
In that month, internet gaming surged 25.2%, but both casino and sports wagering segments posted declines. May’s across-the-board gains reflect renewed momentum as the state’s iGaming and betting sectors continue to expand.
