Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment
At BetMGM Sports Betting Canada, we believe that gambling should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Sports betting should only be done with money you can afford to lose, and it should never interfere with your essential expenses, relationships, or mental health.
Please gamble responsibly and within your means.
Age Verification
Sports betting in Canada is only available to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (or the legal age of majority in your province, whichever is higher). We are committed to preventing underage gambling and verify the age of all users before allowing participation.
If you are under the legal age to gamble, please do not create an account or place bets on our platform.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Please monitor your gambling behavior. Problem gambling can develop gradually. If you experience any of the following warning signs, it may be time to seek help:
- Spending more time and money on gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by betting more to recover money lost
- Hiding your gambling activities from family or friends
- Gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
- Neglecting work, school, family, or social responsibilities
- Borrowing money or going into debt to gamble
- Unable to cut back or stop gambling despite wanting to
- Experiencing anxiety, depression, or irritability when not gambling
- Lying to others about the extent of your gambling
- Jeopardizing relationships, education, or career opportunities
If you recognize yourself in any of these signs, help is available.
