America’s Online Casinos Produce $1 Billion in Revenue in April

America’s seven states with legal online casino gaming combined to produce more than $1 billion in revenue in April.

Market leader Pennsylvania took the top spot, although not without experiencing heavy competition from Michigan. Pennsylvania’s $311.8 million covered the top of the board, while Rhode Island brought up the rear with $6.3 million.

The combined monthly total represented a strong 15.1 percent year-over-year increase.

Breaking down the performances

America’s iGaming industry — which includes online slot machines, table games, blackjack, and other attractions — set an all-time monthly record in March with $1.06 billion in combined revenue. The previous record of $1.04 billion was set in Dec. 2025, while April marked the fourth time in the last five months that combined revenue reached 10 figures.

Pennsylvania’s $311.8 billion was 9.4 percent ahead of where it was one year ago ($285.1 million). Michigan was just behind at $303.4 million in April revenue, but its 22.3 percent YoY growth was the largest among the top markets.

New Jersey capped off the podium with $263.1 million in online casino revenue, a mark that was 11.9 percent ahead of its prior-year total for April.

Connecticut topped out at $67.5 million, up 10.6 percent YoY. West Virginia shot up 33.9 percent YoY to $38.3 million. 

Delaware, second from bottom, experienced the largest growth of all iGaming markets in April. Its 41.8 percent jump to $14.1 million in revenue beat out West Virginia for the title of the most improved state.

Rhode Island’s $6.3 million in revenue might’ve finished seventh out of seven, but it marked a 32 percent improvement on April 2025’s total.

Staring at another record

With the first third of the year now over, the country is on pace to generate $12 billion in revenue by the end of the year based on its current $4 billion total. The recent consistency in hitting totals above $1 billion also suggests that the current trajectory is sustainable.

At the same time, travel is usually up during the summer months because of the warmer weather. Potential consumers leaving their houses and getting on the move could add a natural lull to the market, which still appears headed toward a new annual record. 

For comparison, America’s online casino markets were only at $3.4 billion through four months in 2025, averaging out to $847.4 million per month. 

The year finished with $10.7 billion in iGaming revenue, a 27.6 percent YoY improvement. Another 27.6 percent growth this year would result in $13.7 billion in revenue. 

The national market could be aided in its pursuit of another national iGaming record by the arrival of Maine. 

The Pine Tree State legalized online casinos in Jan. The state is expected to launch its market later this year, although an official launch date has not been confirmed.

An analysis also recently described Virginia as an interesting but “complex” gaming market that feels as if it will inevitably legalize online casino gaming.
