(United States).- American sportsbooks recorded their highest monthly handle and second-highest monthly revenue total this August, according to an American Gaming Association report released Tuesday.
The eye-popping numbers reaffirmed sports betting’s momentum in the roughly 30 months since it’s been allowed to expand nationwide.
It further underscored the importance of online gaming; land-based commercial casinos, due to closures and reduced patronage, are still below last year’s revenues even as sports betting figures jumped.
Sportsbooks Set Records
Americans wagered $2.1 billion in August 2020, an all-time single-month record. Sportsbooks generated $119.4 million in revenue, trailing only the $138 million held in January 2020. The August 2020 revenue total was a 90.2 percent increase from August 2019.
