Since the US state of Pennsylvania opted to expand gambling revenues in casinos, online casinos and sportsbooks have risen by $385m, according to a new report.
The figures show that tax revenues, daily fantasy sports and upfront licensing fees for casinos have netted more than $1m a day for the state since the end of 2017.
The analysis, by PlayPennsylvania.com, said: “The most notable aspect of the significant revenue that has been generated is that this is almost completely from fees, rather than tax revenue gained from gamblers,” said analyst Jessica Welman.
“Clearly there is enough interest in Pennsylvania's enormous market so far to generate the fees.”
