Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Interac Casino Canada, we believe that online gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only, 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 that the odds are always in favor of the house.
Remember: Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and never view gambling as an investment or income source.
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 their province, whichever is higher. We are committed to preventing underage gambling and require all users to verify their age before accessing our platform.
If you are under the legal age, please do not attempt to register or gamble on our site.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please review the following checklist and seek help if you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know:
- Gambling more frequently or with larger amounts than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding gambling activity or lying about time spent gaming
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Neglecting family, work, school, or other responsibilities
- Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
- Borrowing money or accumulating debt to fund gambling
- Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling
- Experiencing relationship conflicts due to gambling
- Physical symptoms such as sleep disturbances or stress-related illness
If you experience any of these warning signs, professional help is available.
