A big month for our best sports betting sites in the Grand Canyon State.

Arizona sports betting generated $43.4 million in revenue after approximately $746 million was wagered by residents in April this year, according to the state’s gambling regulator, the Arizona Department of Gaming.

This represents an almost 14% increase in wagers year-on-year, with last April seeing just under $655 million in bets placed. While wagers increased, revenues did not see the same rise, with only a 0.2% increase recorded in April. 

The Arizona sports betting app that received the highest wagers was DraftKings, with $2 million generated through retail betting and an additional $237.5 million through mobile platforms, totalling just under $240 million. FanDuel came in second, with a total of $228.1 million in wagers, just over $900,000 from retail betting, and $227.1 million from mobile wagers. 

Other operators with high wagers include Fanatics Sportsbook, which raised a total of $63.3 million, and BetMGM, which raised just under $86.7 million. 

Bally Interactive saw a significant increase in total wagers, with a total of $703,458 placed by bettors in 2024, and just over $3.3 million raised in 2025, an increase of 373.2%. 

Golden Nugget online gaming generated the fewest wagers, with $23,718 raised from its mobile platform. Plannatech came in second, with a total of $250,299 generated in April from sports betting wagers. 

FanDuel and DraftKings were also the top revenue earners in Arizona state sports betting, with FanDuel totaling just under $15.9 million and DraftKings bringing in just under $14 million. Offering some of the best Arizona sportsbook promos helps.

The lowest reported revenue came from Desert Diamond Mobile, which raised $52,285, and Bally Interactive, which reported a total revenue of $152,897 in April. 

New York and Pennsylvania see revenues rise; North Carolina declines
