Gaming stream (Sportsbook / Casino / Both) is AlbertaBookies' editorial classification of each brand's publicly advertised products. AGLC's registry lists every entry under the single 'iGaming - Operator' category.
Live status: tracking started , market opening day. Updated as evidence appears; status reflects public evidence, not operator confirmation. No public signal means no public evidence either way — not that the operator is offline. Definitions, per-row evidence links and the downloadable CSV/JSON live on the dataset page.
How I track this
AGLC published the official iGaming registrant list as a weekly PDF until July 2026; it is now a searchable registrants database. That database is the definitive source for registration — this page mirrors it (I diff its CSV export on each refresh) in a faster, citable, embeddable format. Live status comes from a separate first-party source, the AiGC approved-sites directory.
The three AGLC stages
Per the AGLC iGaming Application Guide, every operator who wants to take real-money bets from Alberta residents must complete a three-stage process, then sign a commercial agreement with the Alberta iGaming Corporation (AiGC).
- Due Diligence — initial eligibility check with AGLC
- Compliance review — operational and technical standards
- Final registration + AiGC contract — signed commercial agreement before going live
How I assign each status badge
- Live — confirmed live for Alberta players per the AiGC approved-sites directory (or equivalent first-party evidence), sourced per row.
- AGLC-registered — on AGLC's registrants list but not yet confirmed live for Alberta players.
- Pending AGLC (historical) — used before the July 13, 2026 launch for operators known to be in process but not yet on the published list; no longer assigned now that the market is open.
- Offshore — operator is licensed elsewhere (Curacao, MGA, etc.) and has not applied for AGLC.
- Not registered — operator publicly declined or did not file with AGLC.
- Not in Alberta — operator does not serve Alberta residents.
How updates happen
Daily, I diff AGLC's registrants-database CSV export and check the AiGC approved-sites directory for live-status changes. Any change is applied here the same day, logged in the changelog, and reflected in the dateModified field on the Dataset structured data. Each row carries its verified date as a <time> element and a direct link to the AGLC source. No silent revisions.
Caveats and limits
- I do not open accounts or play with real money at the operators tracked. This is a desk-research mirror of public AGLC data plus operator-published material.
- Operator-reported figures (payout speeds, deposit minimums) on operator review pages are labelled as such — not independently verified.
- If you spot an error, email me and I will correct it and note the change at the top of the affected page. No silent revisions.
Cite or embed this data

Changelog
Every AGLC status change is logged here with date and source. No retroactive edits — only timestamped additions.
Nine operator ratings re-based to the evidence actually on record.
Operators with strong claims I could not verify were lowered; two operators whose Alberta evidence is stronger than their old rating were raised. Two commercial partners (BetVictor, DAZN Bet) were not changed. As a result BetVictor moved from #8 to #5 and DAZN Bet stayed at #9 in the numbered ranking; neither rating changed. Sports Interaction and Play Alberta were raised to 4.0 the same day: both are live with licensing verified and no verified weakness on record; the earlier numbers had no evidence behind them. Bally’s was raised to 4.0 as well after its only recorded weakness, having no track record in Alberta, was retired as stale: the operator has been live since August 5. Nothing was removed from the record: every rating history is in the page’s audit notes. Full diagnosis: rating-scale-diagnosis-2026-09-06.md.
Live-status refresh against the AiGC directory — live confirmed 25 → 26 (Royal Vegas).
The AiGC approved-sites directory now lists 30 operator cards, up from 29 at the 2026-08-29 check, and the one new card is Royal Vegas, an online casino brand of Cadtree Limited. That entity was already registered — it carries the class iGaming - Operator with expiry July 13, 2027 in every archived gaming-registrants database export held here, back to 2026-07-14 — so this is a launch, not a new registration, and the registry stays at 53. Cadtree carries four brands in the registry (JackpotCity, Royal Vegas, Ruby Fortune, Spin Casino) and this is the first of them to go live in Alberta. The same day’s registrants export moved by two first registrations, both iGaming - Critical Gaming Systems Provider rather than operator class — Incentive Games (US) Ltd. and Random State AB — plus one class backfill on a raffle licensee; the 39 operator rows are unchanged field for field, so no registration event accompanies this launch. Royal Vegas has no review on this site, so it is tracked in the live-status layer only and takes no ranking position; no rating, badge or registry data changed. New split: 26 live confirmed, 4 launch announced (PointsBet, Betnova, Betway, PowerPlay), 1 stated later, 22 no signal across the 53-row registry. CSV/JSON regenerated with the refreshed live-status columns.
Live-status refresh against the AiGC directory — live confirmed 23 → 25 (Casino Time, Vegas Club Casino).
The AiGC approved-sites directory now lists 29 operator cards (up from 27 at the 2026-08-22 check). The two new cards are Casino Time (alberta.casinotime.ca), the online brand of CasinoTime Inc., and Vegas Club Casino (ab.playvegasclub.ca), the online brand of G2 Digital AB, LLC. Both entities were already registered — each carries the class iGaming - Operator with expiry July 13, 2027 in every archived gaming-registrants database export held here, back to 2026-07-14 — so these are launches, not new registrations, and the registry stays at 53. They are the first new directory cards since Pure Casino on 2026-08-06, and the first day with two brands going live at once since the Bally's Canada pair on 2026-08-05. Both are casino-only brands. Neither has a review on this site, so they are tracked in the live-status layer only and take no ranking position; no rating, badge or registry data changed. New split: 25 live confirmed, 4 launch announced (PointsBet, Betnova, Betway, PowerPlay), 1 stated later, 23 no signal across the 53-row registry. CSV/JSON regenerated with the refreshed live-status columns.
Registry refreshed to the 2026-08-13 AGLC registrants-database export — total 52 → 53 (one in, none out).
Blueberry (Alberta) Ltd. now carries the class iGaming - Operator in AGLC's gaming-registrants database, with a registration expiry of August 13, 2027 — a one-year term dated the day of this check, so the registration was granted today. It is the third new Alberta iGaming operator registered since the market opened on July 13, 2026, after TWHG Inc. on August 4 and GG International Limited yesterday: 35 of the 39 operator rows still carry the original July 13, 2027 launch-cohort expiry. AGLC publishes no operating-as name for this entity and no public source ties it to a gambling brand, so the brand and stream columns are left empty rather than guessed — the same handling as TWHG Inc. and Ellipse Entertainment Limited. Blueberry holds no AiGC approved-sites card and no live-status entry, so it is registered but not known to be taking Alberta bets, and it takes no ranking position and carries no rating. Split is now 22 sportsbook-capable / 27 casino-only / 4 unclassified, across 39 registered legal entities. One further iGaming-class addition carries no registry impact — Playson Limited (iGaming - Critical Gaming Systems Provider, expiry July 29, 2027), a business-to-business supplier class, not an operator. Dataset CSV + JSON regenerated at the new snapshot date; archived snapshots are untouched, and the raw export is archived per the every-refresh convention.
Registry refreshed to the 2026-08-12 AGLC registrants-database export — total 51 → 52 (one in, none out).
GG International Limited, which AGLC's gaming-registrants database lists operating as GG Poker, now carries the class iGaming - Operator with a registration expiry of August 12, 2027 — a one-year term dated the day of this check, so the registration was granted today. It is the second new Alberta iGaming operator registered since the market opened on July 13, 2026, after TWHG Inc. on August 4: 35 of the 38 operator rows still carry the original July 13, 2027 launch-cohort expiry. Unlike TWHG, this entity does publish an operating-as name, so the brand column is filled from the source rather than left empty. The stream column stays empty: this site classifies streams as Sportsbook / Casino / Both from a brand's publicly advertised products, and there is no Alberta product to read yet — the classification is left unmade rather than inferred from what the name trades under elsewhere. AGLC's own field_stream is also blank on this row, the only one of the 38 operator rows where it is; every other row reads iGaming. That is a metadata gap on AGLC's side of the same kind it has backfilled before, not a statement about the registration. GG Poker holds no AiGC approved-sites card and no live-status entry, so it is registered but not known to be taking Alberta bets, and it takes no ranking position and carries no rating. Split is now 22 sportsbook-capable / 27 casino-only / 3 unclassified, across 38 registered legal entities. Dataset CSV + JSON regenerated at the new snapshot date; archived snapshots are untouched, and the raw export is archived per the every-refresh convention.
Correction: the ★ score is an editorial judgement, not a computation.
This site described its ★ ratings as produced by a "five-factor rubric" and as "computed" — on the homepage methodology block, on the ranking pages, and in five operator reviews. That wording claimed arithmetic that does not exist: no weighting, per-factor scale or formula has ever been published anywhere on this site, so no reader could reproduce a rating and no rating was ever derived from one. An internal evidence inventory also found that four of the five factors carry no fully sourced value for any operator — only licensing and compliance does. The wording is corrected today across the homepage methodology, both ranking pages, every operator review page and five review bodies: the score is my editorial judgement; the five factors are what it considers; credit is given only where a source exists; and where there is no Alberta evidence the factor is recorded as not verified rather than estimated. No rating, rank, badge, registry or live-status value changed — this is a correction to a claim about how the numbers are made, not to the numbers. Earlier entries below keep their original wording under the no-retroactive-edits rule; where they say "rubric" or "computed", this entry supersedes them. Whether the ratings themselves should rest on published arithmetic is a separate open question with a decision point of 2026-08-31.
Live-status refresh against the AiGC directory — live confirmed 22 → 23 (Pure Casino).
The AiGC approved-sites directory now lists 27 operator cards (up from 26 at the 2026-08-05 check). The new card is PureCasino.ca (purecasino.ca), the online brand of Pure Casino Entertainment Limited Partnership. The entity was already registered — it carries the class iGaming - Operator with expiry July 13, 2027 in every archived gaming-registrants database export held here, back to 2026-07-14 — so this is a launch, not a new registration, and the registry stays at 51. It is the second brand to go live after the July 13 market open rather than on day one, following both Bally's Canada brands on 2026-08-05. The same partnership separately holds a land-based Casino-class registration in the AGLC database, which is a different stream and does not affect this registry. Pure Casino has no review on this site, so it is tracked in the live-status layer only and takes no ranking position; no rating, badge or registry data changed. New split: 23 live confirmed, 4 launch announced (PointsBet, Betnova, Betway, PowerPlay), 1 stated later, 23 no signal across the 51-row registry. CSV/JSON regenerated with the refreshed live-status columns.
Editorial correction: fabricated first-person experience removed site-wide; unverifiable local facts cut.
An external audit found that early AI-assisted review drafts opened in a persona this site does not have — "as an avid sports bettor", "having personally used", "based on my experience" — and that several pages promised future re-reviews using "first-hand Alberta data". That contradicts the published methodology: this is desk research, no accounts are opened and no real bets are placed. Those passages are rewritten in evidence language across 8 operator reviews and the comparison, ranking and homepage copy, and the "we/our review" team voice is replaced with the single named reviewer it has always been. Where a review's prose contradicted its own strengths/weaknesses list — 24/7 support asserted alongside a "limited support hours" weakness, live streaming both praised and listed as limited — neither side was sourced for Alberta, so both are now recorded as not verified rather than estimated. On the city guides, FC Edmonton is removed as a current team (the Canadian Premier League terminated Fath Sports' right to operate the club in November 2022, and Edmonton has had no CPL side since); Commonwealth Stadium is corrected to the McCauley neighbourhood; the Red Deer Rebels' arena is corrected to the Marchant Crane Centrium in Westerner Park; and the "where to watch" bar listings are removed entirely, since none of it could be verified from a primary source and the sections wrongly implied you can place bets at a venue. Internal editorial notes that were rendering publicly have been moved out of the published fields. No rating, ranking, badge, registry or live-status data changed.
Live-status refresh against the AiGC directory — live confirmed 20 → 22 (both Bally's Canada brands).
The AiGC approved-sites directory now lists 26 operator cards (up from 24 at the 2026-08-04 check). Both new cards belong to the same registrant, Bally's Canada, Inc.: Bally Bet Sportsbook & Casino (play.ballybet.ca) and Monopoly Casino & Sportsbook (play.monopolycasino.ca). Both were already in the AGLC registration layer, so this is a launch, not a new registration — the registry stays at 51. These are the first brands to go live after the July 13 market open rather than on day one. BallyBet is a reviewed operator, so its review, ranking and comparison pages flip from "registered — not yet live" to Live in Alberta, and it enters the numbered ranking; Monopoly Casino has no review here and is tracked in the live-status layer only. Alberta banking, support and app terms for Bally's are recorded as not verified rather than carried across from its Ontario product. New split: 22 live confirmed, 4 launch announced (PointsBet, Betnova, Betway, PowerPlay), 1 stated later. CSV/JSON regenerated with the refreshed live-status columns.
Registry refreshed to the 2026-08-04 AGLC registrants-database export — total 50 → 51 (one in, none out).
TWHG Inc. appears on AGLC's gaming-registrants database carrying the class iGaming - Operator, stream iGaming, registration expiry July 29, 2027. It is the first new Alberta iGaming operator registered since the market opened on July 13, 2026 — every entity before it was on the list at launch. AGLC publishes no operating-as name for it, and I could find no public source tying the entity to a gambling brand, so the brand and stream columns are left empty rather than guessed, exactly as for Ellipse Entertainment Limited. It is not in the live-status layer and holds no AiGC approved-sites card, so it is registered but not known to be taking Alberta bets. Split is now 22 sportsbook-capable / 27 casino-only / 2 unclassified, across 37 registered legal entities. Dataset CSV + JSON regenerated at the new snapshot date; archived snapshots are untouched, and the raw export is archived per the every-refresh convention.
BetVictor review published (4.1/5); registry row linked; first affiliate link on the site wired.
BetVictor has been recorded live confirmed in the live-status layer since 2026-07-14 but had no review, so it held no ranking position. Its review is now published and the registry row for BV (Canada) Limited links to it, which places BetVictor in the numbered ranking by its rating (homepage and best sports betting sites: 10 → 11 numbered). The 4.1 rating was fixed by the published five-factor rubric before any commercial terms were agreed: full marks on licensing and compliance, partial credit for a regulated operating history verified in the UK Gambling Commission register and the iGaming Ontario directory, and no credit for market depth, payments or support, which are geo-restricted from where this site is maintained and are recorded "Not verified". This page also carries the site's first affiliate link, on the BetVictor review only, routed through
/go/betvictorand markedrel="sponsored nofollow"with a disclosure line next to the button. No rating, badge or sort order changed for any other operator, and no registry or live-status data changed.Numbered rankings are now live-operators-only; registered-but-not-live operators move to an unnumbered "awaiting Alberta launch" section.
A rank number is a recommendation an Alberta reader should be able to act on today, so only operators recorded live confirmed in the live-status layer hold one. The four AGLC-registered sportsbooks that have not launched in Alberta yet (PointsBet, Betway, BET99, Bally's) keep their star ratings and their "Registered — not live" badges, but are now listed unnumbered below the ranking on the same page, under "Registered — awaiting Alberta launch". They take their computed position the day the live-status layer confirms them live. Affected surfaces: the homepage ranking (14 → 10 numbered) and best sports betting sites (same split; the page's
ItemListschema now carries the 10 numbered entries only). Extension of the 2026-07-27 operator-compliance separation, prompted by the same channel: registration decides who appears on a page, live status decides who gets a number. No rating, badge or sort order changed anywhere, and no registry or live-status data changed — the split predicate reads live-status.json through the registry's ownreview_slugcolumn, so it follows the data with no hardcoded brand list. This table is deliberately unchanged: it is a status table covering all 16 reviewed AGLC-registered operators, not a recommendation ranking, and its "AGLC status" column already states live vs not-live per row. The/aglc-tracker.jsonendpoint is unchanged in shape and content.Non-registered brands separated onto their own page — no listing now mixes AGLC-registered and non-registered operators.
Following an operator compliance request, the four brands tracked without AGLC registration (Pinnacle, Proline+, NorthStar Bets, Coolbet) no longer appear on any page that lists or ranks AGLC-registered operators. Their profiles moved unchanged to not-aglc-registered — same "Not rated — not AGLC-registered" policy, no rankings, no sign-up links — and the homepage watchdog block and the "operators we review" table on this page were replaced with a one-line pointer to it. Pinnacle was also removed from the payment-method support lists, which now cover AGLC-registered operators only. Their individual review pages stay live and unchanged. The
/aglc-tracker.jsonendpoint splits the same way:operatorsnow carries AGLC-registered brands only, with the rest under a newnot_aglc_registeredkey. No registry or live-status data changed; counters across the site were re-derived so no number blends the two sets.Live-status refresh against the AiGC directory — live confirmed 18 → 20 (PartyCasino, Sports Interaction).
The AiGC approved-sites directory now lists 24 operator cards (up from 21 on the 2026-07-14 check). Two brands previously recorded as launch announced on industry-press evidence now have their own AiGC directory cards and are upgraded to live confirmed, re-sourced to the directory: PartyCasino (ab.partycasino.ca) and Sports Interaction (ab.sportsinteraction.com). Sports Interaction is a reviewed sportsbook, so its review, ranking and comparison pages flip from "registered — not yet live" to Live in Alberta to match. New split: 20 live confirmed, 4 launch announced (PointsBet, Betnova, Betway, PowerPlay), 1 stated later. No new brands entered the AGLC registration layer; CSV/JSON regenerated with the refreshed live-status columns.
Tonybet review added; ranking now lists AGLC operators only, non-registered operators moved to an unnumbered watchdog block.
Tonybet (Tonybet Northpoint Limited) — AGLC-registered on the 2026-07-10 registrant list and live per the AiGC approved-sites directory (re-checked 2026-07-23) — now has a full review and enters the ranking at its computed rating, 4.0/5. Its Alberta player pages are geo-restricted to Canada, so payments, support and market depth are recorded as unverified rather than estimated. Separately, the four brands tracked without AGLC registration (Pinnacle, Proline+, NorthStar Bets, Coolbet) are removed from the numbered ranking and listed below it as "Also tracked — not AGLC-registered": holding rank positions while labelled "Not rated" was self-contradictory, and no unregistered brand should sit above a live AGLC operator. Their profile pages are unchanged and still linked. Counts across the site are derived from the data — 18 sportsbooks reviewed, 14 of them AGLC-registered and ranked. No registry or live-status data changed.
Editorial correction: non-AGLC watchdog pages rewritten; ratings removed per methodology.
The review pages for Pinnacle, Proline+, NorthStar Bets and Coolbet — operators that are NOT in the AGLC registry — previously carried early AI-assisted drafts that wrongly implied pending AGLC licences and Alberta launch dates, contradicting the pages' own status badges. Those texts are replaced with short factual profiles (regulatory standing, source and date, why the brand is tracked), and their ★ scores are removed everywhere per the published methodology ("I rate only AGLC-registered operators") — they now show "Not rated (not AGLC-registered)". No registry or live-status data changed.
Post-launch content refresh: review layer synced to the AiGC directory — 7 reviewed operators flipped to Live.
BetMGM, FanDuel, DraftKings, bet365, theScore Bet, BetRivers and Caesars are marked Live in Alberta across their review, comparison and ranking pages, verified against the AiGC approved-sites directory (2026-07-14 check). Pre-launch copy site-wide updated to post-launch wording (market opened 2026-07-13); launch-alert signup removed; ratings remain research-based and are being revisited with real Alberta data as operators launch. Registration and live-status data layers unchanged.
AiGC publishes the official approved-sites directory — live confirmed 5 → 18 operators.
The Alberta iGaming Corporation now lists approved iGaming sites (21 site cards as of today) — the first-party regulator source this dataset was waiting for. All matching registry rows re-checked against it: 8 operators upgraded from launch announced to live confirmed (FanDuel, BetMGM, bet365 sportsbook + casino, Golden Nugget, betty, Tonybet, DAZN Bet), 5 first-time entries added straight to live confirmed (BetVictor, CasinoDays, Delta Casino, Lucky Days, Stardust Casino), and the 4 rows previously confirmed via industry press re-sourced to the AiGC directory. New split: 18 live confirmed, 6 launch announced, 1 stated later, 25 no public signal. Registration layer (2026-07-10 AGLC snapshot) unchanged; CSV/JSON regenerated.
Market opening day: live-status layer added to the registry (3 new dataset columns, non-breaking).
Alberta's regulated iGaming market opened today. Since no official day-one operator list has been published, the registry now tracks public live evidence per operator (
live_status,live_source,live_asof): 5 live confirmed (Play Alberta, DraftKings, BetRivers, Caesars, theScore Bet), 14 launch announced, 1 stated later (River Cree), 30 with no public signal — recorded honestly rather than guessed. Definitions and per-row evidence links on the dataset page; CSV/JSON regenerated with the new columns. Registration layer (2026-07-10 AGLC snapshot) unchanged; archived snapshots untouched.Registry refreshed to the 2026-07-10 AGLC PDF — total 49 → 50 (one in, none out).
Re-verified the full iGaming Operator list against AGLC's 2026-07-10 registrant PDF. Added Betano (Kaizen Gaming Canada Inc., sportsbook + casino). No removals; no operating-as brand changes on existing rows. Split is now 22 sportsbook-capable / 27 casino-only / 1 unclassified. Dataset CSV + JSON regenerated with the new snapshot date; archived snapshots are untouched, and the raw AGLC source PDF is archived per the every-refresh convention.
Registry refreshed to the 2026-07-03 AGLC PDF — total 47 → 49 (two in, none out).
Re-verified the full iGaming Operator list against AGLC's 2026-07-03 registrant PDF. Added Tonybet (Tonybet Northpoint Limited, sportsbook + casino) and Ellipse Entertainment Limited (registered with no operating-as brand listed — shown as unclassified rather than guessed). No removals. Split is now 21 sportsbook-capable / 27 casino-only / 1 unclassified. Also corrected our own normalization for three multi-brand registrations the PDF has always listed in full but earlier snapshots collapsed to a single brand: American Wagering (Caesars Sportsbook, Horseshoe Online Casino, Caesars Palace Online), Score Media & Gaming (theScoreBet; theScoreCasino, HollywoodCasino(PENN)) and PointsBet Canada (PointsBet, PointsBet Canada) — a normalization fix on our side, not an AGLC change; archived snapshots are untouched. Dataset CSV + JSON regenerated with the new snapshot date, and the raw AGLC source PDF is now archived with every refresh (AGLC has already changed its file path format twice).
Dataset extended with an ultimate parent / group layer (3 new columns, non-breaking).
The downloadable CSV/JSON now records each brand's ultimate corporate parent or group per public corporate sources (
ultimate_parent,ultimate_parent_source,parent_asof), alongside — not replacing — the AGLC-registered legal entity, which remains the canonical layer. Attributions are filled only where a verifiable public source exists (20 of 47 rows; e.g. Super Group, Entain, DraftKings, Flutter, PENN, MIXI); the rest are intentionally left empty rather than guessed. Registry data itself is unchanged (still the 2026-06-26 AGLC snapshot); archived snapshots are untouched.Registry refreshed to the 2026-06-26 AGLC PDF — total holds at 47 (one in, one out).
Re-verified the full iGaming Operator list against AGLC's 2026-06-26 registrant PDF. Added CasinoDays (Golden Nebula Limited, casino); removed Grizzly's Quest (Cadtree Limited) as it no longer appears on the list. Split is unchanged at 20 sportsbook-capable / 27 casino-only. Dataset CSV + JSON regenerated with the new snapshot date. Registration is not day-one availability: operators also need an AiGC agreement and technical checks, and AGLC's full approved launch list publishes July 13.
Published the full AGLC iGaming Operator registry — all 47 registered operators (2026-06-12 PDF).
Added a complete factual table of every operator on AGLC's registrant list (20 sportsbook-capable, 27 casino-only), each classified Sportsbook / Casino / Both, with the 13 sportsbooks we review linking through. Registry facts only — no ratings on brands we have not reviewed. Also corrected operator license labels to match the registry (4 offshore/Ontario brands were mislabelled "AGLC (pending)"; 7 registered sportsbooks were mislabelled "pending").
