REGISTRATION OPEN – Ontario’s iGaming Market Turns 1!

Published

on

 

CGA is inviting industry professionals to mark the 1st anniversary of Ontario’s regulated iGaming market on April 4, 2023. Our one-day program will examine both the success and progress of the market, critical and emerging issues, and celebrate first-year achievements.

Program Preview

Opening Remarks

Ontario’s gaming agencies will open our day sharing their organization’s unique experiences and successes from the first year of Ontario’s regulated iGaming market.

  • Martha Otton, Executive Director, iGaming Ontario
  • Dave Phillips, Chief Operating Officer Alcohol & Gaming Commission of Ontario
  • David Pridmore, Chief Gaming Officer, Ontario Lottery & Gaming (OLG)

Using Technology to Set New Standards for Fair and Responsible Gaming

The responsible gaming (RG) standards in Ontario’s iGaming market are some of the most robust in North America. Our panel will discuss the requirements for operators to actively monitor players, assess risk, interact with players, and the technology and tools available to assist. Offering insight on what the industry has learned to date and how it can focus on future practices.

  • Moderator: Shelley White, Responsible Gambling Council
  • Brent McCurdy, Deputy COO, Alcohol & Gaming Commission of Ontario

Advertising is a Shared Responsibility

The gaming industry, broadcasters, and professional sports leagues have a shared responsibility in promoting sports betting. Our panel will examine the work these sectors are undertaking to encourage responsible betting, the data on advertising metrics and volumes, and how stakeholders are working together to build a sustainable, cooperative ecosystem.

  • Moderator: Catherine MacLeod, President & CEO, ThinkTV
  • Dale Hooper, General Manager Canada, FanDuel 
  • Scott Woodgate, Vice President, Bet MGM  
  • David Thomson, Managing Director, NFL Canada

Guiding and Educating Customers in Ontario 

Affiliates play an important role in helping guide and educate players. Given the ban on the public offering of bonuses and promotions, affiliates must find new ways to attract customers that don’t involve dollar figures, and customers have lots of questions about this newly regulated industry. This panel will discuss key learnings from other jurisdictions and offer opinions on what a “made in Ontario” framework could look like.

  • Moderator: JD McNamara, Country Director, Better Collective
  • Andrew Garven, Head of Marketing, Covers
  • Nic Sulsky, COO, PointsBet Canada

Keynote Session: Ontario Industry Leaders on Ontario’s First Year 

Join leaders from Ontario igaming operators as they look back on the first year of Ontario’s iGaming market: overall impressions, the Ontario consumer, and what it was like establishing a footprint in what is arguably North America’s most competitive market when so much is still evolving.

  • Moderator: Jeff Harris, National Leader, Sport Business Advisory, Deloitte Canada 
  • Scott Vanderwel, CEO, PointsBet Canada 
  • Benjie Levy, Head of Penn Interactive & COO, theScore

Closing Remarks

Closing remarks will be delivered by Hon. Doug Downey, Attorney General of Ontario.

Gaming Corps goes live with bet365 in Alberta on day one of regulated market

Gaming Corps has launched its online casino content with bet365 in Alberta on the first day of the province’s regulated market opening on 13 July 2026, while also expanding its content distribution with the operator in Ontario and Spain.

The Sweden-based game developer said it is among the first wave of studios fully certified for Alberta’s newly regulated market. Gaming Corps will support bet365’s Alberta entry with more than 50 games at launch, spanning Slots, Table, Plinko, Mine Games and Instant Blitz.

As part of the expanded partnership, Gaming Corps said bet365 will also gain access to its football-themed titles, including Penalty Champion: Goals to Glory, and its 3 Pigs franchise, including 3 Pigs of Olympus, 3 Pigs of Olympus 2: Rise of the DemiHog, and 3 Pigs of the Caribbean.

The rollout also includes Gaming Corps’ Low RTP Blackjack titles, which the company said are designed around 93.57% RTP and approximately 6% operator hold, with flexible branding options and side-bet mechanics.

Graham Greensmith, Chief Commercial Officer at Gaming Corps, said: “Extending our partnership with bet365 across Spain, Ontario and Alberta is a major moment for Gaming Corps, but Alberta is the real statement here. Going live with bet365 from day one reflects the work our teams have put into certification, onboarding and ensuring we can move quickly and confidently with major operator partners.

“As one of the earliest studios ready for Alberta, we’ll be bringing more than 50 titles to the province. That breadth matters, because it gives operators like bet365 a single partner across multiple verticals, with content designed to support acquisition, engagement and retention across different player segments. Spain and Ontario are also important regulated markets for us and expanding with a global operator of this scale highlights how far Gaming Corps has come in a short period of time.”

Richard Graham, Associate VP of Gaming at bet365at bet365 said: “Gaming Corps has become a valuable content partner, combining recognisable game identities with formats that add variety across our casino offering. We are pleased to extend the partnership into Spain, Ontario and Alberta, with the Alberta launch particularly important as part of our day-one commitment to the market.

“Expanding the relationship across multiple territories in a relatively short period reflects the strength of the collaboration, as well as the Gaming Corps team’s clear product direction, commitment and continued development as a game vendor. We look forward to giving players access to a wide-ranging portfolio from the moment the market opens.”
