New Jersey’s online gaming industry continues to shatter records, with September marking another milestone in the state’s thriving iGaming market. According to data released by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement, the Garden State reported a staggering $119.4 million in total iGaming revenue for the month of September, a 1.1% increase from the previous month.
This impressive figure not only represents a new all-time high for New Jersey’s iGaming sector, but also showcases the resilience and growth potential of the state’s online gambling market. The record-breaking revenue was driven by a significant increase in online casino games, which accounted for $106.3 million in total revenue, up 1.6% from August.
One of the key drivers behind the surge in online casino revenue was the popularity of table games such as blackjack and roulette, which saw a substantial increase in player engagement and bets placed. Additionally, slot games continued to attract a large number of players, further boosting overall revenue for the state’s iGaming operators.
In addition to the steady growth in online casino revenue, New Jersey also saw a notable increase in online poker revenue, which reached $13.1 million in September, a 0.3% increase from the previous month. The increase in online poker revenue can be attributed to a rise in player traffic and tournament participation, as well as the introduction of new promotional offers and events by leading iGaming operators.
The strong performance of New Jersey’s iGaming industry in September is a testament to the state’s commitment to fostering a competitive and innovative online gambling market. With the ongoing success of online casinos and poker rooms, as well as the recent launch of sports betting in the state, New Jersey is solidifying its position as a leading hub for online gaming in the US.
As the iGaming landscape continues to evolve and expand, New Jersey is poised to remain at the forefront of the industry, setting new revenue records and attracting a growing number of players and operators. With its forward-thinking regulations, cutting-edge technology, and diverse range of gaming options, the Garden State is well positioned to continue driving growth and success in the online gambling sector for years to come.
