Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
We are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Online casino games are designed purely for entertainment purposes. They should never be viewed as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Always gamble within your means and only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
In Canada, you must be 18 years of age or older (or the legal age of majority in your province) to participate in online gambling activities. We take age verification seriously and will verify your identity before allowing access to any gambling services.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognize any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may indicate a problem with gambling:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Gambling with money intended for bills, rent, or essential expenses
- Hiding gambling activities from family, friends, or partners
- Feeling anxious or irritable when unable to gamble
- Lying about the amount of time or money spent gambling
- Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
- Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling
- Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or other emotional problems
- Experiencing financial difficulties due to gambling
