A million here, a million there, and before you know it, you have a billion.
FanDuel became the first mobile sports wagering operator in New York to surpass $1 billion in revenue after the state’s Gaming Commission reported Friday that the online titan generated $19.8 million in winnings for the week ending May 28. That lifted FanDuel’s overall running total to $1,007,415,901 through 73 weeks of reporting by the NYSGC since mobile wagering launched in the Empire State on Jan. 8, 2022.
To put that figure in perspective, there are only five other states — New Jersey, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Indiana — that have topped $1 billion in total operator revenue.
