Unibet betting in Ontario: the sportsbook that closed.

Unibet took bets in Ontario from April 4, 2022 until March 26, 2024. There is no Unibet sportsbook for Ontario today, on the web or in an app. Here is what it was, what the closure means, and how sports betting works in Ontario now.

What Unibet offered Ontario bettors

Kindred's launch release in March 2022 described a sportsbook and an igaming offer under the Unibet brand, on the web at on.unibet.ca and in mobile apps. It was Unibet's seventh licence in North America and its first in Canada.

We don't describe its odds, markets or promotions here. They no longer exist for Ontario, and rebuilding them from old affiliate pages would mean repeating claims nobody can check now.

What the closure meant for bets and balances

Kindred announced its North American exit on November 29, 2023, planning to be out by the end of the second quarter of 2024. Reporting at the time said Ontario customers were emailed ahead of the closure and asked to withdraw remaining funds before March 26, 2024.

We haven't seen Unibet's own settlement terms for open bets, so we won't guess how they were handled. What is certain is the end state: Unibet's notice says Ontario accounts can no longer be accessed.

Think you still had money on Unibet Ontario?

Contact Unibet's customer service through its main international site and keep your records: account email, transaction history, bank or card statements. The AGCO says plainly that a complaint to it won't get money back, so the operator is the first stop. Our login page has the full checklist.

Sports betting in Ontario today

Single-event betting has been legal in Canada since August 27, 2021. In Ontario you have two kinds of legal option.

Registered private sportsbooks

Every one is on iGaming Ontario's directory. If a sportsbook isn't on it, it isn't regulated in Ontario.

OLG PROLINE

The sports betting product of the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation, the province's own lottery agency. Its app is published by OLG on the Canadian App Store.

Ontario rules that shape what you see

Since February 28, 2024, active and retired athletes can't appear in Ontario igaming ads except to promote responsible gambling, and celebrities likely to appeal to minors are restricted too. Bonuses can only be promoted on an operator's own site or in marketing you've agreed to receive.

So a public page pushing a “Unibet betting promo” to Ontarians fails twice: Unibet isn't here, and that kind of ad wouldn't be allowed if it were.

Before you install any betting app

  • Find the operator on iGaming Ontario's directory first, then install from the operator's own site or its official store listing.
  • Check that the publisher named on the store page matches the operator.
  • Expect identity and location checks. A sportsbook that skips them isn't regulated here.
  • Set deposit and time limits in your account before the first bet.
  • Never type your login into a page you reached from an ad, a text or a social post.
