PAGCOR Q2 GGR hits PHP88B; integrated resorts carry the market

PAGCOR reported total industry GGR of PHP88.13 billion for Q2 2026. Licensed casinos, which include integrated resorts, generated PHP45.37 billion, equal to 51.49 percent of the quarterly total. In Q1 2026, casinos produced PHP44.52 billion, or 50.83 percent of total GGR. The casino segment has held a majority share across both quarters of the year so far.

PAGCOR publicly tied IR performance to tourism growth, job creation, and public healthcare funding. That framing appeared in official communications at the same time legislators are pressing for advertising restrictions on online gaming operators.

The majority-share position of licensed casinos is a structural shift in how the Philippine gaming market is weighted. Online and other segments now collectively account for less than half of GGR, and that share is under pressure from regulatory and fee changes.
