A Significant Leap in Sports Betting
Delaware’s sports betting market closed December 2023 on a high note, reporting a remarkable 50% year-on-year increase in revenue, reaching $2.1m. This spike signifies a 264.1% jump from November’s $576,800, reflecting a growing interest among bettors.
The state’s betting handle followed suit, with players wagering $5.8m on sports. This figure not only surpasses December 2022’s totals by 7.3% but also represents an 8.6% increase from November’s $8.1m.
Delaware Park Leads in Sports Betting
Delaware Park emerged as the frontrunner in this growing market, generating $302,801 in revenue from a $2.1m handle. Following closely were Bally’s Dover and Harrington Raceway, with revenues of $161,432 and $65,701, respectively.
December’s success was further bolstered by the launch of Delaware’s first online sportsbook, a collaboration between Rush Street Interactive (RSI) and BetRivers. This platform, which went live towards the month’s end, signifies a new era in Delaware’s sports betting landscape.
Moreover, an additional $1.5m in revenue was contributed by $5.2m wagers placed at retail locations, highlighting the sustained appeal of in-person betting.
Online Casino Market: Consistent Performance Amidst Dips in Spending
While the sports betting sector experienced a surge, Delaware’s online casino market remained steady, with December revenues reaching $1.2m. This consistency is noteworthy, especially considering a 29.4% decline in player spending compared to the previous year.
Revenue sources for online casinos were diverse, with video lottery games contributing $968,264, table games adding $174,138, and poker rake and fees bringing in $24,191. Despite the decrease in spending, total player winnings for the month amounted to $30.2m, suggesting a healthy rate of return for consumers.
