New Jersey Sports Betting Nears $1 Billion in November

New Jersey has become the first state in history to post a legal sports betting handle of more than $900 million. NJ sportsbooks generated $931 million in wagers in November, breaking the previous record of $803.1 million set in October and marking the fourth consecutive month the state has set an all-jurisdiction record for handle.
November’s bets produced $6.2 million in state taxes on $50.6 million in revenue, falling short of the record $58.5 million in gross operator revenue set just last month.
“Even if New Jersey can’t quite reach $1 billion in a month before the end of the NFL season, the mere possibility so soon after the industry launched in 2018 would have been close to inconceivable until just a few months ago. The restart of the U.S. sports world after the shutdowns of spring and early summer has fueled online sports betting in ways that would have been hard to predict before this year,” Dustin Gouker, lead analyst for PlayNJ.com, said.
“When the traditional major betting sports went quiet, most of the major online sportsbooks were really good at engaging their customers with an array of offerings, from golf to table tennis. What is surprising is that those efforts continue to pay dividends even as the major sports have returned,” Eric Ramsey, analyst for PlayNJ.com, said.

This hands-on session will feature live demonstrations, showcasing how the solution boosts engagement and drives business performance for operators in regulated markets.
Alongside MEGA, Soft2Bet will present powerful turnkey solutions with new updates and strong PAM, front-end and sportsbook solutions tailored for LATAM operators. With extensive experience in localisation and personalisation, Soft2Bet has successfully launched B2C brands across multiple highly competitive markets. As one of Soft2Bet’s leading brands, Campobet MX, officially launched in Q4 of 2024, is a prime example of how the company’s platform delivers high-performance, localised gaming experiences for operators looking to expand in the region. Soft2Bet’s products personalise the casino and sports betting experience, delivering an engaging user experience.
