Macau GGR reaches highest monthly total since the pandemic
Gross gaming revenue amounted to MOP22.13bn (US$2.73bn) in the seventh month of the year.
Macau.- The Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau (DICJ) has reported that Macau’s gross gaming revenue (GGR) was MOP22.13bn (US$2.73bn) in July. That’s an increase of 19 per cent in year-on-year terms and a 5 per cent rise compared to June’s MOP21.06bn (US$2.60bn). It was the best monthly performance since January 2020, just before the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Cumulatively, Macau’s GGR for the first seven months of 2025 was MOP140.8bn (US$17.4bn), up 6.46 per cent year-on-year. The figure was 19 per cent below pre-pandemic levels (MOP173.95bn / US$21.5bn).
Last month, the Legislative Assembly passed the 2025 fiscal budget amendment bill, which estimates gaming tax revenue of MOP79.8bn (US$9.87bn), 5 per cent lower than previously expected. The government cut its GGR estimate from MOP240bn ($29.69bn) to MOP228bn ($28.2bn). At the time of the revised forecast, Ho In Mui, deputy director of the Financial Services Bureau, cited global economic conditions and changes in tourist consumption patterns as factors.
