How Much Money Michigan Receives From Online Gambling

By law, the state receives 70 percent of the total tax from the commercial operators, 80 percent of the total payment from tribal operators for retail betting. Operators pay anywhere from 20-28 percent to the tax pool.

For those internet operators, commercial operators pay 70 percent of the 8.4 percent tax to the state and 30 percent within the city of Detroit. By contrast, tribal operators pay 8.4 percent payment to the state on adjusted gross sports betting receipts. This is in contrast to new states legalizing like Arizona online sports betting which will be even less at 8 percent for tribal operators.
