Pennsylvania online casino betting is on the rise according to a recent study funded by the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (PGCB).<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2023, participation in online casinos rose by a sizable 16 per cent. This is a 5 per cent increase compared to the two years previous.<\/p>\n

The study’s results were also clear – Pennsylvanians spend much more time and money gambling online than in person at brick-and-mortar casinos.<\/p>\n

Pennsylvania Online Casino Betting<\/h2>\n

According to data from the PGCB, online casinos generated approximately $2.1Billion last year. This was up around $800Million over 2022 and 2021.<\/p>\n

The growth in online casino betting is due to a number of factors. Operators have put much more emphasis on attracting new players to their sites offering stronger welcome bonuses.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, BetMGM Casino introduced a number of new games by Play’n Go across Penn state. At the start of the year, Fanatics launched an online casino as well.<\/p>\n\"onlinegaming\"\n

 <\/p>\n

The study also found that those who gamble online spend around $708 per month. Bettors who prefer brick-and-mortar casinos spent around $103 on average.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose that gamble both online and offline (dual-mode) gambled most often, gambling about once a week. Online-exclusive gamblers gambled 2-3 times per month and offline-exclusive gamblers only gambled about once a month,” the study confirmed.<\/p>\n

Young Males In Pennsylvania Gamble The Most<\/h2>\n

According to the study, the average age of an online casino gambler was 33 years-old. Furthermore, three out of every four of those gamblers are male.<\/p>\n

Around 65% of those who were part of the study are currently single and have never been married. These results will suggest that Pennsylvania-based operators will continue to target young, single males.<\/p>\n

The idea of attracting younger, millennial bettors is certainly paying off. They appear more than happy to embrace Pennsylvania online casino betting.<\/p>\n

In contrast, the average age of a brick-and-mortar casino bettor is 52 years-old. Almost two decades older than online casino players.
