Responsible Gaming

Gambling should be a form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Never bet more than you can afford to lose, and keep gambling a fun, controlled activity.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years old to gamble online, or the legal age in your province or territory if it is higher. In Canada, the legal age is 18 in Alberta, Manitoba, and Quebec, and 19 in most other provinces and territories. It is illegal for anyone under the legal age to open an account or wager.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

• Chasing losses — trying to win back money you have lost
• Hiding gambling activity from family and friends
• Gambling longer or spending more than you planned
• Neglecting work, school, relationships, or responsibilities
• Borrowing money or selling possessions to gamble
• Feeling anxious, guilty, or irritable when trying to cut back
• Lying about how much time or money you spend gambling
• Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or depression
• Repeated unsuccessful attempts to stop or control gambling

Self-Help Tools

Many online casinos offer practical tools to help you stay in control:

• Deposit limits — cap how much you can deposit daily, weekly, or monthly
• Loss limits — set a maximum amount you are willing to lose
• Reality checks — receive reminders of how long you have been playing
• Self-exclusion — block yourself from gambling for a set period
