Olg Sports Betting

Nov 24, 2017 “OLG sports offering will include new products that will provide more betting options on a wider variety of events, including all major North American sports leagues and major international. Unlike Vegas sportsbooks or online betting websites, OLG odds are fixed. That means that once they are set, they don’t change. With so many sports and events available for wager, this simplifies the process. Sports betting is, for the most part, illegal in Canada. Operators are not permitted to run retail betting shops or on-location kiosks. This is quite ironic, as Canada is a sports-loving nation. As a result, Canadian players have had to rely on international online operators for all of their sports-wagering needs.

The purpose of the OLG’s licensing process is to ensure that those seeking to do business in the District’s sports wagering industry meet the statutory requirements.

Licensing falls into four categories: Operator, Management Services Provider, Supplier and Occupational.

Applicants in each licensed category will be asked to submit substantial information and documentation that will assist the OLG in determining their overall suitability. Each Applicant and its qualifiers will undergo thorough background investigations to ensure they meet high standards for good character, honesty, integrity and financial suitability.

The investigations for qualifiers – those individuals who are officers, board members or key investors of the Applicant – cover their employment history, criminal record, education, stock holdings and financial suitability, among other areas.

The OLG is using the International Association of Gaming Regulators’ (IAGR) Multi-Jurisdictional Business Form as the basis for information collected from an Applicant, along with addendums requesting information specific to an Applicant’s proposed sports wagering operations in the District.
