This launch marks the culmination of nearly three years of work following the province&#8217;s government declaration in 2019 to end the lottery&#8217;s online gambling monopoly. The government passed legislation in 2020 to establish a licensing system.<\/p>\n<p>Last fall, the province released its final standards for online gambling and gaming. The rules for online gaming include a prohibition on automatic play and a minimum spin speed of 2.5 seconds for slot machines.<\/p>\n<p>Ontario iGaming, a subsidiary of the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), will be responsible for overseeing the new market, as well as issuing licenses to operators and suppliers.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to the market opening, Ontario iGaming issued a number of licenses, with many major brands receiving authorization to operate in the province.<\/p>\n<p>PointsBet, theScore, Rivalry, Rush Street Interactive, Bet365, FanDuel, and 888 have all been granted licenses to offer online gambling in Ontario, while suppliers such as Inspired Entertainment, Play&#8217;n Go, and High 5 Games have also been approved to partner with licensed operators. <\/p>\n<p>The Ontario Alcohol and Gaming Commission (AGCO) cautioned businesses seeking permits to halt operations before the market opened, or their applications would be denied.<\/p>\n<p>The AGCO detailed plans to collaborate with law enforcement to &#8220;take decisive action to address any remaining unauthorized Ontario market activity&#8221; in its &#8220;Assisting Internet Gaming Operators with Registration&#8221; instructions.<\/p>\n<p>All companies that applied for registration before April 4th were obligated to stop operating in Ontario the moment the AGCO approved their registration.<\/p>\n<p>Among the operators that went live on the day of Ontario&#8217;s launch was PointsBet, which initiated online casino and online sports betting operations through its subsidiary PointsBet Canada.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Just after midnight this morning, PointsBet Canada became one of the first private sports betting firms to accept legal wagers,&#8221; said Scott Vanderwel, CEO of PointsBet Canada.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;On behalf of the entire PointsBet Canada team, we are incredibly enthusiastic about the official opening of the Ontario sports betting market.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Before the launch, FanDuel Group, owned by Flutter Entertainment, stated they would also be accepting bets starting today, after receiving a permit to offer sports betting and online casino in Ontario.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are delighted to establish an office in Canada and bring FanDuel&#8217;s top-tier sports betting and casino to Canada&#8217;s passionate sports enthusiasts,&#8221; said Amy Howe, CEO of FanDuel. <\/p>\n<p>Its a momentous occasion for the Canadian gaming sector. We&#8217;re thrilled to provide Canadians with amusement and secure sports wagering experiences.<\/p>\n<p>High 5 Games, a content provider, affirmed that its games are live with numerous operators on the inaugural day of authorized online gambling in Ontario.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our games have been featured in numerous Canadian land-based casinos for years, and now Ontario players can engage in them online at secure gaming platforms they recognize and trust,&#8221; stated Tony Singer, Chief Executive Officer of High 5 Games.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The potential for growth within the Canadian market is substantial, and we&#8217;re enthusiastic about expanding our presence in Ontario and beyond.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gambling.com Group, an affiliate firm, also declared that it will be providing marketing services to licensed online sports betting and online casino operators in Ontario commencing today.<\/p>\n<p>In preparation for this launch, the group established OntarioBets.com in November 2021, a complimentary website that enables players in the province to compare authorized online sportsbooks and casinos.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The commencement of regulated online sports betting and online casinos is a significant event for the Ontario gaming industry,&#8221; remarked Charles Gillespie, Chief Executive Officer of Gambling.com Group.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The province has effectively facilitated entry for companies into the market. This will foster competition, which is advantageous for consumers as the most exceptional companies will ascend to prominence.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>The company is truly adept at assisting operators and clients in achieving success within this fresh and thrilling marketplace.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Subscribe to the online gaming newsletter. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Canadian province of Ontario has officially opened its regulated online gambling marketplace.
