Macau casino gross gaming revenue (GGR) for January was just over MOP22.63 billion (US$2.81 billion), showed government data issued on Sunday.
The figure was up 24.0 percent compared to January 2025’s MOP18.25 billion. Judged month-on-month, it was an 8.4-percent increase on December’s MOP20.89 billion.
That is according to figures disclosed by Macau’s casino regulator, the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau.
In a January 26 memo, banking group JP Morgan said Macau GGR had been “steady and solid” for the first 25 days of the month, at an average of MOP712 million per day.
In November, the local government’s 2026 fiscal budget plan estimated that this year the city’s casino GGR will reach MOP236 billion.
Shortly after, at Macau’s Legislative Assembly, Tai Kin Ip, the city’s Secretary for Economy and Finance, described the forecast as “prudent”, as Macau was susceptible to events in “international economies”. He didn’t elaborate.
The city’s calendar-year 2025 GGR totalled MOP247.40 billion. It was the highest annual GGR tally since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic in early 2020.
Full-year 2019 GGR for Macau had been just under MOP292.46 billion.
