West Virginia’s online casino market generated $40.9 million in August 2026, up 23% year over year and good for the second-highest monthly total on record, according to Poker Industry PRO market data.
A notable development in the August figures was Wheeling reporting online casino revenue for the first time in the last week of the month. Neither the regulator nor the site identified the brand on Wheeling’s license, although Poker Industry PRO said it believes the operator is bet365.
Charles Town remained the market leader
Charles Town led the state in August with $13.4 million in online casino revenue, accounting for roughly one-third of the market. Poker Industry PRO reported that most of Charles Town’s online casino revenue came from DraftKings.
The other three main licenses — Mountaineer, Greenbrier, and Mardi Gras — were each at just over $9 million for the month. Each of those licenses represented about 22% to 23% of the market, based on the source report.
The source also listed the current operator alignments across the state’s casino licenses:
- Charles Town: DraftKings and PointsBet
- Mountaineer: BetRivers and Caesars
- Greenbrier: BetMGM and Golden Nugget
- Mardi Gras: FanDuel and Ember, formerly Betly
- Wheeling: brand not publicly confirmed in the report
Wheeling’s first reported figures add a new market variable
Wheeling’s launch date was listed as August 2026, making it the newest online casino license to appear in West Virginia revenue reporting.
While the exact contribution from Wheeling was not broken out in the source summary, its arrival gives the state another active online casino skin to watch in future monthly reports. The source did not report any regulatory announcement confirming the brand tied to Wheeling’s license.
For now, the August data shows a West Virginia market that continues to grow, with Charles Town still out front and the rest of the field clustered closely behind.
