New Jersey Casino Revenue Up 10.4% Compared to Last Year

The New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement released the February revenue on Thursday, March 16th. An increase of 10.4% is evident in casinos, horse tracks that accept sports bets, and online partners of gambling properties. The casinos and tracks’ revenues were more than $412 million.

However, in-person gaming hasn’t recorded such an increase. the results might not be relevant because the COVID-19 pandemic greatly impacted the whole business. 

The results are good, but the numbers aren’t precise since most of the revenue came from online betting. Online betting winnings must be shared with partners such as sports books and tech platforms, so the profit for casinos and tracks is smaller than expected.

On-site gambling brought about $215 million in revenue. It is only a slight increase compared to last year, when the revenue was 1.2% less than in 2023. However, online gambling is in expansion since it achieved $143.5 million more than the previous year.

Director of the Lloyd Levenson Institute, Stockton University, Jane Bokunewicz, studies the Atlantic City gambling industry. He claimed: “Locally, the addition of two new casino resorts to the established seven has disrupted market share. The local market pie has grown, but the way that pie is cut has changed, shifting in favor of the newest entrants to the market.”
