Breaking Down Pennsylvania Online Casino August 2025 Revenue
Pennsylvania releases its monthly data and highlights adjusted gaming revenue. That total removes promotional dollars from the gross gaming revenue total. The adjusted revenue from the state was $231.2 million.
PGCB also lists the revenue by licensee. Online casinos launched in the Keystone State in 2019, with 10 different retail casinos being granted licenses to operate iGaming. Two other operators (Bally, Golden Nugget) earned untethered licenses. Some of the licensees operate multiple online casino brands in the state. However, their revenue is reported collectively.
