Michigan Online Gaming Revenue Hits $285.2 Million in June as Market Momentum Continues
Michigan’s online gambling market hit $285.2M in June, driven by substantial iGaming growth and sportsbook strength, cementing the state’s digital dominance.
Following record-breaking May, Michigan blurs the lines between iGaming and sportsbook with 44% growth in June 2025.
Michigan’s regulated online gambling market generated $285.2 million in gross receipts during June, securing the second-highest monthly performance since market launch.
Though short of May’s record $301.4 million, the June total still marked a 40.8% increase over the $214.1 million posted in June 2023.
The sustained momentum in Michigan online gaming revenue highlights the state’s rise as a powerhouse in the US regulated gambling market. Operators continued to drive strong growth across both online casino and sportsbook verticals.
iGaming Leads Michigan online gaming revenue growth
A big part of Michigan’s sustained success comes down to operator dominance — and no one’s doing it better than FanDuel and MotorCity Casino. That strategic partnership maintained market leadership with $62.3 million in gross receipts and $58.6 million in adjusted revenue.
Their dominance stems from aggressive promotional campaigns and a comprehensive game portfolio integrated on some of the best betting sites that resonates with Michigan players. Even after a red-hot May, they remained firmly in control.
While their lead was slightly slimmer than the month before, FanDuel Michigan and MotorCity continue to set the pace in a market seeing consistent iGaming expansion. Gross revenue from online casino gaming alone hit $240.6 million — a 31.3% year-on-year jump, underlining just how quickly digital casino play is growing in a regulated betting market like Michigan.
Other key players held their ground. DraftKings, partnered with the Bay Mills Indian Community, stayed third with $38.7 million gross and $36.4 million adjusted.
That consistency at the top end of the market suggests not just growth, but a maturing ecosystem with clearly defined power players. And that’s a good thing for Michigan — proof that the Great Lake State can attract and retain big-name operators, further cementing its status as a serious force in the U.S. online gambling landscape.
Sportsbook revenue continues to climb
Home to some of the most loyal fans in American sports, Detroit’s passion fuels its betting culture. Whether it’s the Red Wings chasing another Stanley Cup long-suffering Lions fans daring to dream, local pride plays a key role in sportsbook engagement.
That connection shows in the numbers. Michigan sportsbooks brought in $44.6 million in gross revenue for June — a 44.3% year-on-year rise. With over $302 million wagered, it’s clear that punters are showing up in big numbers. And it’s Detroit-backed operators that are leading the charge.
The state’s loyal fanbase drives engagement across major leagues, with summer baseball and basketball playoffs providing consistent opportunities for fans to place bets on sportsbooks. Detroit’s sporting heritage translates directly into sportsbook performance.
FanDuel and MotorCity Casino remain the ones to beat, topping the market again with $18.5 million in gross revenue from a $103.4 million handle — a strong hold of 17.89%. DraftKings and the Bay Mills Indian Community followed with $13.1 million from $95 million, while BetMGM rounded out the top three.
While Detroit’s land-based casinos still draw significant revenue — with $101 million generated in June alone — the story of Michigan’s gambling market is increasingly being written online. Table games and slots made up $100.4 million of that total, with just $665,435 coming from in-person sports betting. MGM Grand Detroit maintained its dominance with a 48% market share, followed by MotorCity at 31% and Hollywood Casino at 21%.
These figures show that there’s still a loyal base for in-person play, but the sharp contrast in growth between physical and digital revenue signals where the momentum truly lies. Online casinos and sportsbooks are not just catching up — they’re setting the pace.
June’s combined digital haul of $285.2 million proves that iGaming and sportsbook platforms are now the heartbeat of Michigan’s gambling industry.
The momentum is now firmly with iGaming and sportsbooks. Big-name operators are thriving, and Detroit is at the heart of it — both physically and digitally. Michigan isn’t just growing; it’s showing how online gambling can power a state’s gaming economy.
