Visit Sports Interaction →Sports Interaction welcome bonus in Canada
Context for Canada: Canada regulates gambling province by province, so what is lawful depends on where you are. Ontario runs the country's open market: private operators register with the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) and operate under an agreement with iGaming Ontario, alongside the provincial operator OLG. Most other provinces keep online gambling with their own provincial operator. ONE ONTARIO RULE AFFECTS WHAT YOU SEE HERE: the Registrar's Standards for Internet Gaming prohibit advertising or marketing that communicates gambling inducements, bonuses or credits to the public - operators may still OFFER them, but may only advertise them on their own gaming site or by direct marketing to players who have actively consented. Permitted advertising must disclose material conditions up front, must not call an offer free unless it truly is, and must not call it risk-free where you stake your own money. If you are in Ontario, expect to find the current terms of any offer on the operator's own site rather than anywhere else, and treat a headline figure quoted elsewhere - including here - as something to verify at source.
Here is the current Sports Interaction welcome offer for players in Canada. Bonus terms change and are set by Sports Interaction for each market — always confirm the live offer on its own site. See every licensed betting site in Canada →
