The US sports betting industry is in its sixth year of regulated operations outside of Nevada, and proceeds are pouring in. Operators have so far combined to generate close to $30 billion of gross revenue from almost $350 billion in total handle.
New Jersey’s ascension was one of the main storylines of the early post-PASPA period, and it continues to sit atop the leaderboard after moving in front of Nevada for good in April 2021. New York is quickly closing the gap, though. Its online industry is relatively young, but its eye-popping start has it on pace to claim the overall top spot before the end of 2025.
Here’s the running total for sports betting handle and revenue reported to date across all active markets:

And with a couple of the largest markets still closed to legal operators (California, Texas), the biggest months of US sports betting are still on the horizon.
Here’s a timeline of nationwide handle and revenue; note that data for the most recent months may be incomplete:
Legal sports betting has spread to 38 states plus the District of Columbia since the fall of PASPA in 2018.
