The iGaming market continued a record pace in May, generating $276.3 million in New Jersey online casino revenue, beating the previous record set in March at $272.1 million.
The Garden State’s market increased 11.9% from the $246.8 million reported in May 2025, according to figures released Tuesday by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement. Operators also improved upon April’s total of roughly $268.1 million, adding more than $8 million month over month.
Five months into 2026, New Jersey online casinos have produced $1.32 billion in revenue, up 14.4% compared to the same point last year.
FanDuel maintains commanding lead
FanDuel Casino remained the clear market leader in May.
Operating under the Golden Nugget license, FanDuel generated $64 million in revenue during the month. The operator has now surpassed $302.5 million in year-to-date revenue and remains the only online casino brand above the $300 million mark through May.
DraftKings Casino held onto second place with $47 million in revenue under the Resorts license. While DraftKings remains one of the state’s dominant operators, its May total was down 2.3% from last year.
BetMGM Casino finished in the top three with $34.6 million in revenue through Borgata, representing a 6.4% increase year over year.
Together, FanDuel, DraftKings, and BetMGM produced nearly $146 million in revenue during May, accounting for more than half of New Jersey’s entire iGaming market share.
Hard Rock Bet, BetFanatics continue surge
Hard Rock Bet generated $18.3 million in revenue, up 39.7% from May 2025. The operator has produced nearly $89.7 million through the first five months of the year, a 52% increase over the same period last year.
Fanatics Casino continued to be one of the fastest-growing brands in the market. The Bally’s partner reported $13.5 million in revenue, up 115.7% year over year. Through May, Fanatics has generated $66.2 million, a 145.6% increase from 2025.
BetRivers Casino also delivered another strong month, producing $12.4 million in revenue and increasing 54.3% compared to last year.
These operators have been refreshing game portfolios to remain competitive in the market. Hard Rock, in particular, just launched new soccer-themed slots.
Fanatics recently entered into a partnership with game developer RubyPlay to expand its gaming library.
New Jersey remains on record pace
The state’s iGaming market shows little sign of slowing down as revenue has exceeded $250 million in four of the first five months of 2026, while year-to-date revenue is already more than $166 million ahead of last year’s pace.
FanDuel leads all operators with $302.5 million in revenue through May, followed by DraftKings at $231 million and BetMGM at $166.7 million.
With revenue climbing 14.4% year over year through five months, New Jersey remains on track to set another annual iGaming record in 2026.
