Michigan’s online casinos nearly surpassed their annual revenue record in September. The current record stands at $263.3 million, set in August 2023, according to the Michigan Gaming Control Board. In September 2025, the state reported $259.1 million in revenue, just $4.2 million shy of the record.

Chasing records: Michigan’s online casino boom

The year 2025 has been exceptional for Michigan’s online casinos compared to previous years. For instance, September 2024 generated $202.6 million, the second-highest monthly total at that time. By September 2025, revenue had surged 27.9% year-over-year.

Ten Michigan online casinos posted significant revenue gains in September 2025 compared to September 2024. The data is as follows:

Online casino revenue poised to surpass 2024 in October

Michigan’s online casino revenue growth shows no signs of slowing. The industry is on track to set a new annual revenue record in October. As of September 2025, total yearly revenue for Michigan’s online casinos reached $2.24 billion.

In comparison, the full-year revenue for 2024 was $2.44 billion, a record at the time. To surpass this, casinos need approximately $200 million in October—a feasible target, given that monthly revenues in 2025 have consistently exceeded $240 million, except in February.

It’s likely that Michigan has already set a new annual revenue record, pending final October figures.

Unstoppable growth: Michigan’s casino revenue soars

Michigan’s online casinos have seen consistent year-over-year revenue increases, with no indication of a slowdown. Based on September data from the past five years, revenue has grown by at least 21% annually:

YearSeptember MI Online Casino RevenueGrowth From Previous Year
2021$102,380,222N/A
2022$128,734,44725.7%
2023$166,424,46829.3%
2024$202,591,67021.7%
2025$259,123,96127.9%

Despite the peak percentage growth occurring in 2023, the dollar amount increase has remained steady. For example, September 2025 revenue rose by $56.5 million compared to September 2024.

If this growth rate continues, Michigan’s online casinos could reach $300 million in monthly revenue, a milestone no other state has achieved. Additionally, rising casino revenues are boosting state and local coffers. In September 2025, Michigan collected $50.8 million in state tax revenue and an additional $19.1 million for city and local authorities.
