Online Poker in Canada

It is possible to find many poker tables across Canadian Casinos, as well as online poker rooms. In fact, some of the most successful players worldwide are Canadians, such as Daniel Negreanu or Jonathan Duhamel. And the Canadian Poker Federation is a member of the International Federation of Match Poker, organizing regular tournaments around the country.

Online Poker Laws in Canada

Similarly to most games, online poker in Canada is not defined in the Criminal Code (R.S.C.,1985, c.C-46). However, and because it is considered a game of mixed chance and skill, it is illegal at a federal level unless no consideration is paid to enter. Nevertheless, each province is entitled to regulate its own online gambling market. For instance, in Saskatchewan, online poker is restricted to charitable games, with only Texas Hold’em being allowed. But other provinces such as British Columbia, Manitoba or Québec have licensed online poker sites in Canada. Furthermore, the law doesn’t stop Canadian players from playing in offshore platforms and some, such as Party Poker, even have specific pages for Canadian residents, offering challenging tournaments for experienced players, but also a Poker School for those who are just beginning.

Online Poker Payment Methods in Canada

Operators want to provide players with safe and fair environments. This means that all money transactions are done through transparent methods. In this way, the credit and debit cards of VISA and MasterCard are commonly accepted by online poker sites. But there are alternatives available as well, such as Instadebit, Skrill, Neteller or PaySafeCard.

Online Poker Sites Accepting CAD

Poker is widely popular in the country, which is why international operators are interested in targeting the Canadian market. This means that there are several online poker sites accepting CAD, allowing gamblers to be exempt from paying any conversion fees.
