GamblingGuy.com Is Ready Ontario Online Gambling Launch

March 28, 2022

GamblingGuy.com has announced its readiness to embrace the forthcoming Ontario gambling market, with a raft of new content introduced in anticipation of the measure.

With online gambling opening up in the Canadian province on April 4th, residents with an interest in igaming will find themselves in a new world – and in need of guidance from the experienced team behind GamblingGuy.com. While some form of online betting has been legal since August of 2021, the expansion in April 2022 allows big-name companies to enter the market after obtaining a licence to operate.

The introduction of these operators – which includes international names such as 888, PointsBet, and BetMGM, with the list growing almost daily –, bettors in Ontario will be able to turn to GamblingGuy to help provide clarity amidst the newly-bustling marketplace. GamblingGuy.com has long provided a service to bettors across a number of regions, including Australia, the US, and Germany. Ontarian visitors will be able to make use of the site’s Ontario-focused operator reviews, betting guides, and coverage of bonuses and special offers right from the outset.

GamblingGuy Product Owner, Peter Rostowski, explained: “We at GamblingGuy have taken considerable time to ensure we are prepped and ready for the launch of Ontario’s new igaming legislation. We are hugely excited about the potential in the market, and are looking forward to providing our customary high-quality igaming content to our new Ontario readership.”

GamblingGuy’s Ontario focus is considerable, with concerted efforts to cater to its readership in Ontario through to April 4th and further beyond. .
