Responsible Gaming
1. Introduction
Gambling should be a form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose, and decide how much time and money you will spend before you start.
2. Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years old, or the legal gambling age in your Canadian province or territory — whichever is higher. In several provinces and territories the legal age is 19. Underage gambling is illegal. If you share a device, use parental controls and keep your login details secure.
3. Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
