Ontario eligibility context

Ontario location checks: what the official directory says

Last substantively reviewed: 2026-07-11

Key fact

iGaming Ontario's directory uses physical location, not residency, in its current player-facing wording. The statement on this page is limited to the directory and is not a conclusion about any partner or unlisted domain.

Practical device checks

If a website or app presents a location-check message, start with ordinary device and network settings. These steps do not bypass eligibility controls and do not confirm a site's status.

Check device settings

Confirm that location services are enabled for the browser or app you are using. Review any recent privacy or permission changes before retrying.

Check network settings

Turn off a VPN, proxy, or privacy relay if you intentionally enabled one, then retry using a stable network. Do not use location workarounds to defeat a check.
