Responsible Gaming
Gambling should always be a form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. No betting system or strategy can guarantee winnings, and the odds are always in favour of the house. Please play responsibly and within your means.
Age Verification
You must be 18 years of age or older (or the legal gambling age in your province or territory, which is 19 in some parts of Canada) to gamble online or at land-based casinos. Underage gambling is illegal and can lead to serious personal and legal consequences. We encourage all users to verify their age and identity when signing up with any casino.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you care about, it may be time to seek help:
- Chasing losses by continuing to gamble to win back money you have lost.
- Hiding your gambling activity from family or friends.
- Spending more money or time on gambling than you can afford.
- Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities because of gambling.
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling.
- Feeling restless or irritable when trying to cut down or stop gambling.
- Lying about how much you gamble or how much you have lost.
- Gambling to escape from stress, anxiety, or other problems.
Self-Help Tools
Most reputable online casinos offer a range of tools to help you stay in control. We strongly recommend using these features from the moment you create an account:
- Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly caps on how much you can deposit.
- Loss Limits: Limit the amount you are willing to lose over a set period.
- Reality Checks: Receive reminders of how long you have been playing, with the option to log out.
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently block yourself from accessing a casino account, either through the casino itself or through provincial/territorial self-exclusion programs.
