Launch guide series
Start here if you're new to what's changing on July 13.
Alberta becomes the fourth Canadian jurisdiction to regulate online gambling, following Ontario's 2022 launch. The province runs a two-body model: the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Commission (AGLC) handles licensing and enforcement, while the Alberta iGaming Corporation (AiGC) manages the commercial side, including the province's centralised self-exclusion programme. Every operator listed below has cleared AGLC's registration requirements before appearing on this site.
Operator reviews
In-depth reviews of every major operator launching July 13.
Each review is scored against a published vetting methodology covering licensing status, regulatory enforcement history, responsible gambling infrastructure, advertising conduct, and payment transparency — the same criteria applied consistently across every operator, with sources cited for any enforcement findings.
Comparisons & pillar guide
Where the individual reviews come together.
These pages answer a narrower question than a single review can: not just whether an operator is compliant, but how it compares to the others on the specific factor that matters most for a given decision, whether that's payout speed, welcome offer structure, or sportsbook depth.
