$1 Billion in Handle For Second Time
The $1,024,326,837 in November sports betting handle is only the second month Ohio sports betting had eclipsed the $1 billion mark. The last time the state did so was during its first month of operation, January 2023, which saw $1,113,591,970 in total handle.
In addition to the massive amount of handle activity, the Ohio Casino Control Commission reported $117,044,624 in taxable sports betting revenue for November, the second most lucrative month in the state’s sports betting history.
At the state’s 20% tax rate, Ohio took in more than $23.4 million in sports betting tax revenue for November. While the total was the second most ever, it paled in comparison to January 2023 when Ohio reported a whopping $208,518,576 in taxable revenue.
Through November, the state has reported $847,149,368 in total taxable sports betting revenue in 2024. This has led to $169,429,873 in sports betting tax revenue through the first 11 months of the year.
