Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment, Not Income

Sports betting and online gaming should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. It is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. Always bet within your means and only with money you can afford to lose. Remember: the house always has an advantage, and outcomes are based on chance.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your province) to participate in sports betting and online gaming in Canada. By using this website, you confirm that you meet the legal age requirement in your jurisdiction.

We are committed to preventing underage gambling. If you are under the legal age, please do not participate in any betting activities.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you experience any of the following, you may be developing a problem with gambling:

• Gambling more frequently or with larger amounts than intended
• Chasing losses by continuing to gamble to recover money lost
• Hiding your gambling activity from family, friends, or loved ones
• Experiencing anxiety, irritability, or mood changes related to gambling
• Neglecting personal, work, or family responsibilities due to gambling
• Using gambling as a way to escape from problems or stress
• Borrowing money or going into debt to fund gambling activities
• Lying about how much time or money you spend gambling
• Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
• Feeling a constant urge to gamble with increasing amounts

If any of these signs resonate with you, please reach out for support immediately.

Self-Help Tools and Controls

Most licensed Canadian sportsbooks and gaming platforms offer responsible gaming tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount of losses you are willing to accept over a specific period
• Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders of how long you've been gambling and how much you've wagered
• Session Time Limits: Automatically log out after a set period of gambling activity
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing betting platforms
• Account Closure: Permanently close your account with a sportsbook

Use these tools to maintain control of your gambling habits and protect your wellbeing.
