Online slot maker ready to entertain players in province of nearly 15 million

High 5 Games announced that it has been granted a Gaming-Related Supplier License by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO). The license authorizes High 5 Games to offer its games to AGCO-approved operators serving the province of Ontario.

Tony Singer, CEO of High 5 Games, commented: “Big things are happening in Ontario, and we couldn’t be more excited to be a major part of the newly regulated iGaming market. For several decades, players in Ontario have been enjoying our games at land-based casinos across the province. We can’t wait to bring those games online and entertain players in a whole new environment.”

Ontario’s iGaming market officially opens to licensed operators on April 4th, 2022. As one of the first licensed suppliers, High 5 Games is ready to hit the ground running with operators hoping to capitalize on the new frontier in North America’s iGaming sector.

While new to Ontario iGaming, High 5 Games already has a major presence in Canada. In February 2022, High 5 Games launched several titles on Lotto Quebec’s online casino platform. The online slot company also has several partnerships in many regulated markets south of the border, including New Jersey, Michigan, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Connecticut. The company plans to extend those partnerships in Ontario and join forces with new operators as the market expands and grows.

High 5 Games is the industry’s largest independent casino games provider. With over 200 games in its slot library, the company is focused on developing content for the online, mobile, land-based, and social markets. High 5 Games also offers its own proprietary casino platform called Opus, which allows operators to integrate games from other suppliers.

AGCO Removes Cap on Seller Commission for Charitable Lottery Products

The Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) has updated several lottery policies to remove the cap on seller commission for Paper Raffles and Media Bingo, along with removing the prohibition on Catch the Ace paper lotteries, to align with other charitable lottery products.

Licensed charities may now negotiate commissions directly with sellers and determine commissions, provided they are reasonable and tied to the cost of service provided by the seller.

These updates further the AGCO’s commitment to adopt an outcomes-based regulatory approach and reduce burden for the charitable gaming sector. Local charitable organizations will have greater flexibility to make decisions that best serve their fundraising objectives.

Important Reminders

• Charities must still receive approval for other expenses incurred under their licence and retain receipts for seller commission paid.

• Licensing authorities will not require documentation to be submitted as part of the application process, however, charities are still subject to audit to determine compliance.

• Charities are reminded of their legal requirement to meet their obligations under the Criminal Code and with respect to conducting and managing a charitable gaming scheme.

• As with all licensed charitable lottery events, charities must take the necessary steps to ensure that they are conducting and managing the lottery event within Ontario.

For charitable gaming-related inquiries, email an AGCO Eligibility Officer at [email protected] or call AGCO Customer Service at 1-800-522-2876, Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
