Online Play Beyond Shorelines Peterborough

Since April 4, 2022, a private online casino may serve Ontario only under two conditions. It must be registered with the AGCO, the regulator. It must also hold an operating agreement with iGaming Ontario. Both conditions apply to every private site, however large or familiar its name.

iGaming Ontario keeps the public directory of those sites at igamingontario.ca. Checking a site's name there before any play is a simple habit to keep. Players must be 19 or older, the same age line the Gaming Control Act, 1992, draws for casinos. They must also be physically inside Ontario.

OLG.ca is the online casino of the Ontario government. OLG runs it, the same body that conducts and manages casino gaming in the province. Play there is open to people 19 and over who are in Ontario. It is not a private operator's site, and it is not the partner behind this guide's Ad links.

BetGuard, at betguard.ca, is iGaming Ontario's single opt-out from every regulated gambling website in Ontario, OLG.ca included. A person picks 6 months, 1 year, 5 years or a period of their own choosing.

It does not reach land-based casinos, the one on Fisher Drive among them. Those fall under My PlayBreak, OLG's self-exclusion programme, with breaks of 3 or 6 months or from 1 to 5 years. Enrolment goes through the OLG Support Centre at 1-800-387-0098, casino staff or a PlaySmart Centre coordinator.

The home page is the only place with paid links, each labelled Ad. Three exist: a header button, a block placed directly after the card check at the top, and a block near the end. Every one of them points to a single partner, a private online casino. That partner gives the guide a commission and could change over time. Inner pages, including this one, have no paid links.

The partner is not OLG.ca. It has nothing to do with the casino on Fisher Drive, its operator or Kawartha Downs. Any site, the partner included, can be checked by name in the iGaming Ontario directory at igamingontario.ca.
