Wyoming skill-based amusement games generated $12.5 million in revenue in December, an increase from November’s revenues of $10 million.

The Wyoming Gaming Commission reported payouts totaling $9.4 million in the Cowboy State, an increase of $1.8 million compared to November, which reported $7.6 million. Net proceeds also increased month-over-month, from $2.3 million in November to more than $3 million in December.

Wyoming Amusement Svc. produced the highest revenue for the month at $2.26 million, an increase of $453,486 from November’s revenue of $1.8 million. Wyoming Amusement Inc. generated the second-highest amount in December, reporting $2.25 million in revenue, also up from November.

The four other vendors that generated revenue above $1 million for December include Jenkins Music, which reported $2 million, Entertainment Experts at $1.7 million, Jul Box at $1.6 million and S&C Vending LLC at $1.4 million. Each vendor reported revenue growth from November.

Skill-based amusement revenue may soon be joined by online casino revenue with the introduction of online casinos to the Cowboy State. Lawmakers introduced HB 162 to legalize online casinos in the 2025 legislative session.

Last September, legislators in Wyoming were investigating the possibility of introducing online casinos, with industry sources claiming that the state could be a prime candidate for the legalization of online gaming.
