Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Interac Casino Canada, we believe that online gaming should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. While we strive to provide an enjoyable gaming experience, it's important to understand the risks involved and to play responsibly.
Remember: the house always has a mathematical advantage. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose.
Age Verification
Online gaming in Canada is restricted to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (or the legal age of majority in your province, whichever is higher). By accessing our services, you confirm that you meet this age requirement.
We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.
