Published

Reading Time: 3 minutes

 

The new project casinozeus.net, created by gambling expert Olexiy Ivanov, is directed at users from Canada. All articles with reviews of various Internet sites on Casino Zeus are written in English. Gamblers can find a lot of useful information about playing at online casinos in Canada, find out about the main payment methods, review the ratings of the best sites and choose the best platform to play for real money. The author talks about the specifics of registration, shares a list of current bonuses and constantly updates information about new clubs.

How Can I Tell if a Canadian Casino Is Licensed?

Canada is known for its tolerant attitude in dealing with many matters, including gambling. The market was legalized in 1999, at which time a bill came into force, and the Kahnawake Gaming Commission was founded to oversee compliance with the established rules. As of today, there are 114 online casinos registered in Canada, one official betting house and eight slot machine rooms. 

There are four types of licences that can be obtained through the Gambling Commission:

  • IGC — the first type of licence that allows you to register for hosting in Kahnawake; no action on another hosting system is permitted;
  • Key Persons Licence — a licence for a key entity to carry out the management activities of the CPA licence holder;
  • Inter-Jurisdictional Authorization — a type of secondary licence that allows you to organize gambling activities in Kahnawake territory;
  • Client Provider Authorization — the licence proving the identity of the club owner who plans to provide services on the gambling market.

Olexiy Ivanov shared with our correspondent information about his new site, casinozeus.net, and shared his vision about the regulation of the gambling industry: “In the Canadian legislation, articles 201-206 prohibit gambling activities in the country, but smart entertainment organizers have carefully studied what is written and saw in article 204 that lotteries, horse races and betting are allowed as legal activities. Each province establishes its own regulations that allow the gambling industry to change and open new clubs without problems.”

What Are the Best Online Casinos in Canada?

Olexiy Ivanov has researched all the online casino sites in Canada and has highlighted the best ones that offer generous bonuses and quality software. Each operator pays out winnings in a timely manner and does not cheat users out of their money. Some of the best sites to play at are:

Name Welcome Bonuses for Signing Up
Kosmonaut 100% deposit bonus + 100 free spins
Kaiser Slots 150 free spins
Lucky Nugget 100% + 100 free spins
GoldenStar 150% but not more than 500 EUR
PlayAmo 25 free spins + $2,000
Wild Fortune 200% + 150 free spins

Criteria for Choosing Trusted Casino Sites in Canada

The Casino Zeus site offers a large number of reviews on Canadian online casinos. Olexiy Ivanov tells readers what criteria he looks for when writing his reviews:

  • valid licence;
  • reviews from real players and a positive reputation on sites such as Reddit and Trustpilot;
  • quality software from trusted developers;
  • wide range of games, including live dealer games and roulette;
  • work of the support team and the promptness with which they deal with gamblers’ questions.

What Are the Most Popular Payment Methods at Casinos in Canada?

The currency in Canadian casinos is the Canadian dollar, so all payment transactions will be made in CAD. Players are advised to deposit via payment systems that support this currency. This will allow them to avoid additional conversion fees. The main payment methods of web casinos in Canada include:

  • Visa and MasterCard bank cards;
  • PayPal, Payeer, Instadebit, and Paysafecard e-wallets;
  • Skrill, Neteller, and Bitcoin cryptocurrency wallets.

Rules for Playing Responsibly at Canadian Online Casinos

The situation in the gambling industry is quite complex, with many users being unable to control their own gambling habits. Because of this, more and more players are facing problems with gambling addiction. Olexiy Ivanov wrote in his article about how casinos fight gambling addiction. The basic rules of responsible gambling require operators to:

  • control the registration procedure for new players in the casino, no one under the age of 18 is allowed to play;
  • notify users of possible risks in the games;
  • working with organizations such as GamStop, and GamblersAnonymous to help treat affected players;
  • setting gambling limits.

What Are the Alternatives to Online Clubs?

Online users can also visit land-based venues in Canada and try their luck offline. The advantages of playing in land-based clubs are:

  • total immersion in the world of gambling;
  • option of betting in cash;
  • opportunities to find new friends based on a shared interest.

Khalid Ali, CEO of IBIA, said: “I am delighted to welcome Glitnor Group as IBIA’s latest member in Ontario. Glitnor and IBIA share a common goal to maintain the integrity of the sports betting marketplace and to protecting consumers and sports from match-fixing. Ensuring product integrity is paramount to our approach and we look forward to integrating Glitnor within our leading global sports betting integrity monitoring system.”

IBIA is a not-for-profit body that has no competing conflicts with the delivery of commercial services to other sectors and is run by operators for operators to protect regulated sports betting markets from match-fixing.

IBIA members have over $300bn per annum in betting turnover (handle), accounting for approximately 50% of the global commercial regulated land-based and online sports betting sector, and in excess of 50% for online alone.

IBIA recently released a report on the Availability of Sports Betting Products which highlighted Ontario as a leading regulated gambling jurisdiction, with an expected onshore channelisation for sports betting of 92% in 2024 forecast to rise to 97% in 2028. IBIA currently represents over 60% of the private sports betting operators licensed in the province. All online sports betting operators licensed in Ontario are required to be part of a betting integrity monitoring body.

IBIA’s 2023 annual integrity report detailed 184 alerts reported in the year, which represents a decrease of 101 (or 35%) on the revised 2022 figure of 285 alerts. IBIA alerts contributed to the investigations and subsequent successful sanctioning of 21 clubs, players and officials in 2023, an increase on the 15 sanctioned in 2022.
