• What is the best way to deposit into an casino online in Canada?

  We at online-casino.ca believe that the best way to make a deposit at an casino online is via credit card or bank account using INTERAC or Instadebit. We definitely recommend that you go with whatever payment method that you are most comfortable with.

• What is the best way to withdraw from an online casino in Canada?

  We believe that the best way is to use a debit card (INTERAC) or a check in the mail, since that is the easiest way to have your winnings go directly into your bank account. However, a credit card is a viable option for withdraws too. Know that your financial institution might charge a fee if the withdrawal amount is more than you owe on your credit card. Online casino in Canada do not calculate any foreign currency fees when your account is set to Canadian dollars. Always check that the casino supports deposit and withdrawal methods in CAD.

• Is gambling online legal in Canada?

  The short answer is yes. The legislation on online gambling is pretty grey, and is often dependent on the province. That grey area really only applies to being a licensed online gambling operator, not being a player. It simply sais that operating a casino in canada is not allowed, but offshore sites are not regulated by the Canadian government. Because of this, the best online casinos for Canadian players are located offshore (Meilleurs Casinos En Ligne for French Canadians). That doesn't mean they are not aproved by any Canadian regulators like Kahnawake gaming commission.

  ou must be at least 18 to gamble in Alberta, Manitoba, and Quebec. In all other Canadian provinces, you must be at least 19. This is pretty low compared to New Zealand for example.
