The voluntary rules ban youth-oriented imagery, campus ads and risk-free claims, and feed into a new certification programme.
The bookmaker’s launch comes as the province opens to private competition and leans on live betting, early payouts and a CFL partnership.

The brand has AGLC approval and is aiming to be ready when the province’s regulated market goes live.
