Here’s three takeaways from June’s revenue report and what operator are making news in the state.

The $301.2 million in revenue generated from online casinos was the fifth-highest monthly total ever for Michigan. It was also a 25.2% increase from last June’s $240.6 million.
Here’s how the revenue looked by operator.

Michigan Nears Pennsylvania for Most Revenue in June
The biggest headline for Michigan iGaming in June was it nearly caught Pennsylvania for the most online casino revenue for a state in the month.
Pennsylvania has long had a grip on being the most productive iGaming revenue state in the US, but Michigan’s $301.2 million was just $1.9 million shy of Pennsylvania’s $303.1 million total.
Michigan had been starting to get closer to PA in recent months. It was within $9 million in both March and April before falling over $15 million behind in May.
June is typically a down month for iGaming states, but Michigan bucked that trend.
While the Wolverine State was up 25% year-over-year, Pennsylvania was only up 14.3% last month compared to June 2025.
Battle for Fourth, Fifth Place Very Tight
While the top three online casinos in terms of revenue have been established in Michigan, the battle for fourth is as close as ever.
FanDuel, BetMGM, and DraftKings have separated themselves from the field for the top three spots, but BetRivers, Hard Rock, and Fanatics are in a tight battle for the last two spots in the top five.
BetRivers has been able to hold down the fourth spot for a while, but Hard Rock has been able to apply some pressure.
When it debuted in December, Hard Rock Casino Michigan brought in $35.7 million in its first month, a record for a debuting MI online casino. It flew past BetRivers ($22.3 million) that month, and edged it again in January ($23.1 million to $22.1 million), but BetRivers has taken back the position the last four months.
Hard Rock is now feeling the heat of Fanatics, which has been on a steady incline for the last two years. Fanatics has been within $1.5 million of Hard Rock the last four months and the matchup is closer to a coin flip as of late.
Bet365 Michigan Sees Dip in Second Full Month
Mid-April saw bet365 Casino Michigan makes its debut in the state.
May was the first full month of the new operator’s presence in Michigan and bet365 brought in $11.1 million in revenue for the month, a solid debut showing that landed it eighth among the 15 online casino operators in Michigan.
June was going to be a real litmus test for bet365, to see if would be able to retain some of the business it drew in through its bet365 Michigan bonus offer.
While a dip was predictable, it wasn’t too severe. The $8.4 million in June for bet365 landed it ninth among the 15 operators.
While bet365 saw a 24.1% drop in revenue from May to June, that wasn’t as big of a percentage dip as what Hard Rock experience over its first two months. Hard Rock Bet saw its $35.7 million December debut fall back by 35.2% to $23.1 million in January.
