Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

Sports betting should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. It's important to understand that the odds are always in favor of the sportsbook, and there is no guaranteed way to win.

Please gamble responsibly and only with money you can afford to lose.

Age Verification

Sports betting in Canada is restricted to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (19+ in some provinces). By using this website, you confirm that you are of legal age to participate in sports betting in your province or territory.

If you are under the legal age, we encourage you not to engage in any gambling activities and to seek guidance from a trusted adult.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone. If you recognize any of the following signs in your own behavior, it may be time to seek help:

• Gambling more often or with larger amounts than intended
• Constantly thinking about gambling or past gambling experiences
• Feeling anxious or irritable when trying to cut down or stop gambling
• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover lost money
• Hiding gambling activities or lying to family and friends about how much you gamble
• Using gambling as a way to escape problems or negative emotions
• Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
• Jeopardizing relationships, education, or employment opportunities due to gambling
• Failed attempts to control or stop gambling
• Gambling with money needed for essentials like rent, food, or bills
