New Hampshire breaks sports betting record in November
5 Jan 2026
“We continue to raise the bar for sports betting in the Northeast,” said Charlie McIntyre, Executive Director, New Hampshire Lottery. “Together with DraftKings, we have built a world-class sports betting system that is setting new records, engaging our players and delivering unprecedented funding for New Hampshire public schools. Maximizing funding for the students, teacher and schools of the Granite State remains at the heart of everything we do.”
NFL games led all sports betting activity in November, with bettors placing more than 1 million bets totaling nearly $30 million in handle. Thanksgiving Day matchups fueled much of that action, accounting for three of the four most-bet games of the month.
The November revenue record follows what was a record-breaking Fiscal Year 2025, during which the New Hampshire Lottery broke its all-time record in money delivered to New Hampshire public education from sports betting with a total of $39 million. Players placed more than 27 million wagers, totaling more than $818 million, last fiscal year.
Since the inception of sports betting in New Hampshire on 30 December 2019, Granite Staters have wagered nearly $4.5 billion, which has generated $172 million to support public education.
New Hampshire residents can download the DraftKings Sportsbook app to place wagers through DraftKings, the exclusive digital operator in New Hampshire. Sports fans can place bets on the DraftKings Sportsbook app via iOS and Android or online at Sportsbook.DraftKings.com.
Together, DraftKings and the New Hampshire Lottery take responsible gaming seriously and the state-of-the-art DraftKings app offers consumers a number of responsible gaming tools, including My Stats Sheet, a gaming tool that gives players the ability to assess, track and interact with their personal gaming states, as well as limit setting, cooling-off periods, and self-exclusion.
