Ontario legally and lawfully regulated the online gambling market for the gaming lovers and gaming hubs.

Toronto, Canada, May 23, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ontario opens a legal online gambling market. The provincial government of the province of Canada-Ontario, after a deep analysis, introduces legislation allowing online gambling to be legal and lawful. The rights were passed in September last year when the provincial government decided to allow online betting. After a keen analysis of the global situation, the provincial government introduces the rules and rights for online gaming. By banning auto play, the provincial government standardizes rules and regulations for playing. A slot of 2.5 seconds is the minimum time for the spin speed.

According to Playit.ca, iGaming Ontario, the subsidiary of the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), holds the rights and responsibility for regulating the new online market. The Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) is in charge of issuing licenses to operators and suppliers. Since the news broke out in the market, AGCO has received a ton of applications from brands and gaming lovers for the approval of online gaming betting. A lot of big names in the town accredited the approval from AGCO, such as Inspired Entertainment, Play ’n Go, and High 5 Games, Points Bet, the Score, Rivalry, Rush Street Interactive, Bet365, Fan Duel, and 888 are on the list of brands to enjoy online gambling in Ontario. Points Bet Canada was one of the first private sportsbooks to take legal wagers.

Where the AGCO — Alcohol and Gaming Commission — regulates and legalizes the brands for online gaming and betting, at the same time, the AGCO holds the rights to ban any of the gaming brands. AGCO has a very strict policy of taking strong action to address any remaining unregulated Ontario market activity in partnership with law enforcement.

Play it The opening ceremony kicked off in Ontario. Brand owners such as Flutter Entertainment-owned Fan Duel Group, High 5 Games, and the Gambling.com Group participated in the opening ceremony. With the initiation of legalizing online gaming and betting, it opens new gates for the world of casinos and sports betting to come to Ontario.

Pablo Puertas, Marketing Director of Kaizen Gaming said: “The past year has been a defining one for Betano. We didn’t just refresh our visual identity; we reinforced Betano as a modern, premium and trusted brand, radiating confidence, playfulness, and artistic flair. Through bold 360° campaigns and landmark sponsorships we connected with millions of people in meaningful, localized ways.

But this is more than branding. It reflects our broader commitment to delivering the best, most innovative, and most responsible gaming experiences possible. Winning ‘Best Native App’ once again, as well as ‘Innovation in Sports Betting’ shows that we are pretty successful at it. We are now at a stage where we can confidently say that Betano is a truly premium global player, able to compete for leadership in any given market. A big thank you to the award organizers, but more importantly to the ‘Kaizeners’, who are the driving force behind our success”.

Building on last year’s momentum, the first half of 2025 has been a remarkable period for Kaizen Gaming and Betano, highlighted by multiple high-profile global sponsorships – including the most recent partnership with FIFA for the FIFA Club World Cup 2025™ for South America and the long-term principal and front-of-shirt partnership with Club Atlético River Plate.

This year’s ceremony took place at The Mermaid, London, on 19th June 2025, and was hosted by Greek comedian George Zach.
