The Maryland Lottery and Gaming reported $45.6 million in gross operator revenue for sports wagering in September as the betting public eagerly snapped up promotional offers that came with mobile betting being available for the first time in the state at the start of a football season.

The state’s 12 mobile operators lavished close to $24 million worth of credits for September, the most since an outlay of $71 million last December in the second month mobile wagering was available in the Old Line State. Four operators — DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, and Fanatics Sportsbook — accounted for all but $1.4 million of that amount, with DraftKings leading the way with more than $8.8 million.
