The Empire State was provided an all-time treat in October as official mobile sports betting monthly figures were announced by the New York State Gaming Commission (NYSGC) on Thursday.
For the first time since four mobile providers launched New York betting apps on Jan. 8, 2022, the state has gone over the $2 billion mark in handle, generating $2.007 billion in handle (mobile only), a solid 14.1% jump from September’s $1.759 billion and a significant 29.9% increase from October 2022 ($1.543 billion).
The previous record of $1.788 billion was recorded in January. Today’s historic announcement was more than $217.83 million over the old mark.
