Next month, Ontario launches an internet gambling market named iGaming. It will allow legal single-game betting and online gambling. The market will be regulated by the government. Operators must register with the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario and obtain an operating agreement with igaming Ontario. They also need to enter revenue-sharing agreements with province. Some operators are more ready to launch their services on day one, while others will expand the market in the weeks and months following the launch.

There are 30 approved sportsbook operators in Ontario. The list does not include major brands such as DraftKings Ontario, Caesars, Betway and BallyBet. The full list of authorized operators will be available on the iGaming website come April 4. Every site fully registered and authorized will have i gaming's logo displayed. Online gambling in Canada could grow to close to $28 billion within five years. igaming says the new regulated market will ensure operators have met rigorous standards of game integrity, fairness, player protections and social responsibility.

The new internet gambling market opens in Ontario on April 4.
