Where the money comes from

Notebook kept and checked by Sloane CarrickChecked October 7, 2026

One online casino partner pays the guide a commission; its link appears on the home page alone, marked Ad. Everything else on the site is unpaid.

What the province says

In B.C., PlayNow.com, operated by BCLC, is the one legal online gambling site. On August 28, 2026, the IGCO declared that apart from PlayNow.com, no regulated commercial online gambling website may operate in BC. The same statement described every other online gambling site that accepts BC players as operating illegally in the province.

The partner behind the Ad links is not PlayNow. A resident of BC who plays on that site keeps none of the province's protections. Limits set through Game Break or PlayNow carry no weight there, and complaints about that site fall outside what the IGCO can take.

Links that are never paid

Venues, BC Ferries, BC Transit, BCLC, PlayNow and help services pay this site nothing. No link to them is paid, and links to government pages are unpaid as well.

Readers get no rewards from the guide. Each fact was compared with official sources and the venues' own pages on October 7, 2026.
