Kansas Casino Revenue Tops $38M In March, Up From February And Year-Over-Year
March was a relatively successful month for Kansas casinos, which have been making steady progress since the beginning of the year.
According to data from the Kansas Lottery, four casinos in the state won $38.67 million in revenue last month. Here’s how March revenue compares to previous months of the year:
- Kansas casino revenue for January 2024: $30,311,619
- Win for Kansas casinos in February 2024: $34,298,725
- Kansas casino revenue for March 2024: $38,669,189
March’s figure represents a 2.23% increase from March 2023‘s $37.82 million, showing a 12.74% progress from February 2024.
Meanwhile, Kansas retail and online sportsbooks won $7.15 million, resulting from $252.90 million in total bets. The revenue figure is an increase from February 2024 but a drop from March 2023.
After success with retail casinos and sports betting, online casinos would be the next logical step in Kansas’ gambling evolution. However, it remains to be seen whether Kansas online casinos will gain regulation. While some lawmakers showed interest, there have been no attempts to make Kansas online casinos legal so far.
