Casinos in Canada: 2026 guide
Regulated market: licences are issued by Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario / iGaming Ontario. Operators holding one work legally; the rest accept players from abroad.
Regulation
In Canada gambling is regulated at the provincial level, so there is no single market. The flagship of online regulation is Ontario, where an open licensing model has operated since 2022 under iGaming Ontario and the Alcohol and Gaming Commission (AGCO): private online casino and betting operators work legally. In other provinces online gambling is offered by state platforms (each province has its own operator), while foreign sites remain in a grey area with no direct ban on players. Land-based casinos are widespread across the country. The currency is the Canadian dollar; Interac, bank cards and e-wallets are popular. Gambling winnings are generally untaxed for recreational players. Players should choose operators licensed in their own province.
