New Jersey Casino Revenue Continues to Grow in September 2025
New Jersey saw its online casinos thrive in September, generating more than $243 million in revenue
Revenue from real money online casinos in New Jersey continues to grow at a substantial rate, with 10 of the top 11 operators showing notable increases over last September. Though down slightly from August's $248.4 million in revenue, New Jersey's online casinos generated $243.1 million in September 2025, up nearly 17% from last year. September's total was the fourth highest in the state's history and continues a strong trend of $240 million or more in revenue in four of the last five months. FanDuel Casino led the way, with nearly $57 million in revenue from online casino games, followed by DraftKings online casino ($48M), BetMGM online casino ($30M), and Borgata ($20M).Â
Per the New Jersey Department of Gaming Enforcement, through the first nine months of 2025, New Jersey online casino revenue has exceeded $2.1 billion, up nearly 23% over 2024's figures. With more than $48 million in tax revenue generated in September, the state's yearly total now nears $354 million.Â
Atlantic City Casino Revenue Declines but Stays Strong
With the summer tourism season over, Atlantic City casinos' revenue fell nearly 27% compared to August's $312 million. The caveat is that August's total was the first time in more than 12 years that casino revenue topped $300 million in New Jersey's gambling hotspot. At $230.7 million in revenue generated in September, this was the first month since April that in-person casinos fell behind online casinos in the state. Overall, the Atlantic City casino scene is thriving, with the June through August total of $855 million in revenue up nearly six percent vs. 2024 and the best summer in over a decade.
Atlantic City casinos saw $170 million in revenue from slot machines and nearly $61 million from table games. For the year, casinos are up more than $1.6 billion on slots and $578 million from table games. Overall brick-and-mortar casino revenue is at $2.2 billion through the first nine months of 2025, up more than $53 million from 2024 (2.5%).
Borgata Leads the Way Among Atlantic City Casinos
The Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa continued to lead the way generating nearly $490 million in slot machine handle and $118 million in table and other games handle. For the month, Borgata had more than $45 million in slot revenue and nearly $16 million from table games and poker. Their overall revenue of nearly $63 million was nearly $18 million more than their nearest competitor, Hard Rock Atlantic City.
For the year, the Borgata has generated approximately $600 million in revenue, more than 70% of which came from slot machines. Despite the casino's success, the hold percentage in September was slightly lower than the other eight Atlantic City casinos at 9.3% for slot machines and 13.5% for table and other games.
Hard Rock is a solid second in revenue generated thus far in 2025 with $422 million followed by Ocean Casino at $353M. Those three are well above Harrah's ($173M), Tropicana ($169M), and Caesars ($159M). Resorts ($123M), Golden Nugget ($104M), and Bally's ($102M) round out the yearly revenue generated by the nine Atlantic City casinos this year.
