Pennsylvania Online Casino Revenue Climbs On Annual And Monthly Basis

It was another strong month for Pennsylvania’s online casinos in July, with their $249 million in revenue reflecting a 2.7% increase from June and an even stronger 9.1% boost over July 2025.

The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board, which posts those numbers based on adjusted earnings after promotions, released its July report Wednesday morning showing overall commercial gaming revenue of $591.1 million for the month, 6% higher than the prior July.

The 23 online casino sites in the state continue to claim primary responsibility for increased gaming revenue, as land-based revenue at the 18 casinos is relatively flat year to year. Retail slots and table play totaled $286.1 million in July, compared to $284.8 million a year earlier.

The iCasino revenue after promotions came to $199.2 million from slots play, $47.4 million from online tables, and $2.34 million from iPoker.

State tax revenue from online casinos amounted to $115.5 million out of the total $256.8 million in government taxes from all commercial gaming last month, which in addition to online and retail casinos includes sports betting, truck stop video gaming terminals, and fantasy sports contests.

Hollywood Casino group had rare slip

Rather than reporting revenue earned by individual iCasino sites, the Pennsylvania regulator lists the earnings by its 11 license holders, who are allowed multiple skins to take on partners.

The leader in Pennsylvania each month among licensees is Penn Entertainment’s Hollywood Casino, whose online revenue in addition to Penn’s own iCasinos comes from partnering with DraftKings, BetMGM, and Fanatics Betting & Gaming. That group’s collective revenue of $97 million was 10.5% higher than in July 2025, but it took an unusual step back from the $98.1 million this June, a shorter month by a day.

Valley Forge Casino Resort, on the strength of its partnership with FanDuel, reported revenue of $70.1 million last month, which was up 14.9% from July 2025 and also higher than June’s $65.3 million.

The other major entity among Pennsylvania’s top online tier is Rivers Casino, which has two Rush Street Interactive brands and a Borgata online casino partnership. They collectively took in $40.5 million from customers, a 7.2% increase year-over-year and also higher than the $38.4 million in June.

Notable changes among second tier

While the above three license holders claim more than 80% of the total online revenue in Pennsylvania, significant changes have been taking place within the group behind them.

Fourth-place Harrah’s, which counts online play at the Caesars, Caesars Palace, Tropicana, and Horseshoe sites, had $14.7 million in revenue last month, a 40% increase over July 2025. And Bally Bet, which reported $5.5 million in revenue, was up a still higher 65.6%.

Several other iCasino license holders have shown year-over-year declines, however, including Parx (down 12.6% to $4.8 million), Live! Casino (-67% to $1.7 million), and Wind Creek (-72.3% to $0.6 million).
