Iowa’s sports betting revenue increased year-on-year in March, despite the US state posting a slight decline in monthly handle.
Player spending on sports wagering in March across online and retail amounted to $232.6m, down marginally from $233.5m in March 2022. However, this figure was 20.0% higher than the $193.9m bet by consumers in February this year.
Of this total, $209.0m was wagered with online sportsbooks, while the remaining $23.6m was spent at retail locations.
