Online casinos in New Brunswick

Updated
21.10.2026

This page is for players in New Brunswick. It covers who runs legal gambling in the province, where offshore casinos fit, how to check one before you sign up, and where to get help. It does not cover Ontario or Alberta, which run their own regulated online markets.

36 of the 42 casinos on our Canadian list are on this page. Our rule: a casino is listed only if we read the restricted-territories list in its own terms and New Brunswick is not on it. We checked the official sources and the casinos' terms on October 20 and 21, 2026. A casino on this list is not licensed by New Brunswick or by any other province.

Who runs legal gambling in New Brunswick

Gambling in Canada is set by the Criminal Code, and the Code leaves it to the provinces. Section 207(1)(a) allows the government of a province, alone or with another province, to "conduct and manage" lottery schemes in that province. Under section 207(4)(c), charities, fairs and other licensees may not run games on or through a computer, so online gambling under the Code is for the province itself to conduct and manage.

In New Brunswick, the New Brunswick Lotteries and Gaming Corporation (NBLGC), a Crown corporation under the Gaming Control Act (S.N.B. 2008, c. G-1.5), is responsible for developing, organizing, conducting and managing all provincial gaming. Its lines of business are video lottery, ticket lottery, iLottery and casino gaming. Casino New Brunswick in Moncton and Grey Rock Casino near Edmundston operate under agreements with NBLGC.

Online gaming goes through Atlantic Lottery, jointly owned by the four Atlantic provinces, which operates video lottery, ticket lottery and iLottery on behalf of NBLGC. NBLGC's 2023-24 annual report lists the online games at ALC.ca: PRO•LINE sports betting, iBingo, digital instant games and iCasino. Atlantic Lottery's 2024-25 annual report calls it the region's only regulated provider of online gambling and sports betting. alc.ca itself blocked our automated reads on October 21, 2026.

The Gaming Control Act set up a Gaming Control Branch, headed by a Registrar of Gaming Control, in what is now the Department of Justice and Public Safety. NBLGC's latest annual report refers to the department's Gaming Regulatory Enforcement Unit, which monitors compliance with the Act. The province's own pages did not load for us, so we do not give the branch's current name.

Where offshore casinos fit

The casinos on our list are not run or licensed by New Brunswick. They operate from outside Canada, with a licence issued elsewhere, for example in Curaçao or Anjouan, or with no licence we could verify. The province's gaming regulator does not license or supervise them, and they have no link to the New Brunswick Lotteries and Gaming Corporation. If something goes wrong, a provincial regulator cannot resolve a dispute you have with one of them; your route is the casino's own complaints process and, where there is one, the body that issued its licence.

Whether federal or provincial law reaches an individual who plays at an offshore site is a legal question this page does not answer. We are not lawyers, and nothing here is legal advice. What we can do is show what each casino publishes about itself, and what we could and could not check.

Alternatives to alc.ca: what to compare

Atlantic Lottery's alc.ca is the option New Brunswick runs under its own rules, with the province's limits and self-exclusion. If you are looking at an offshore casino instead, compare it on points you can check yourself, not on its advertising:

  • A licence in a public register. Find the licence number on the casino's site, then look for the same number, company and website in the regulator's own register. A seal or a number on its own proves little. Our guide to casino licences shows how to check.
  • Interac on the casino's own pages. Look for Interac e-Transfer in the footer, on the payments page or in the cashier, and check whether it is offered for withdrawals as well as deposits. Our Interac casinos page lists the casinos that show it on their own site.
  • Canadian dollars. An account in CAD saves a currency conversion on every deposit and withdrawal.
  • Published terms you can read. The restricted-territories clause, withdrawal limits, verification rules and the games blocked for Canada should all be in the terms before you sign up. If the terms do not load, count that against the casino.
  • Tools you can set yourself. Deposit limits, time-outs, self-exclusion and reality checks in your account, not only by email to support.
  • Complaints. A pattern of delayed withdrawals or ignored self-exclusion requests on public complaint sites tells you more than a single review.

Our top-rated casinos page and each casino's review apply these checks, and how we rate casinos explains the scoring. Offers are left out of this page on purpose; each casino's current offer and its terms are on its page on our site.

Which casinos on our list accept players from New Brunswick

Our rule is strict. A casino is on this page only if we read the restricted-territories list in its own terms and conditions, and New Brunswick is not on it. Review sites do not count, however many of them say a casino accepts New Brunswick players. We read the terms on October 20 and 21, 2026.

36 of the 42 casinos pass that test: Art Casino, BEEF, Betrepublic, Casabet, Casinia, Casinostars, Cleobetra, Flagman, FS Casino, HitnSpin, Irwin, iWild, Kingmaker, Lollyspins, Malina, Mino Casino, MyEmpire, Needforspin, Neon54, Pistolo, Pribet, Rabona, Real Spin, RioAce, Rolling Slots, RTBET, Slotoro, Slots Palace, Snatch, Spinanga, Spinbara, Spinit, Spinlander, Thor, Verde and Winmega.

Slotoro: two sites trade as Slotoro with different terms. The one we list, slotoro.bet, names no province in its restricted list. The other, slotoro.casino, refuses New Brunswick, so check which site you sign up on.

Four are left out because their terms refuse New Brunswick. FUGU, GGBet, Martin and Pandido name the Canadian Province of New Brunswick in their restricted list.

Two more are left out because we could not read their lists: Tonybet and Vavada. Tonybet's Canadian terms did not load for us, and Vavada's site refused our request. That does not mean they refuse New Brunswick, only that we could not confirm it from their own terms.

Games blocked for Canada: many casinos here block NetEnt games and a few other titles for Canada as a whole. That limits the games, not the account.

Being on this list means only that a casino's terms do not refuse New Brunswick. It does not mean the casino is licensed in New Brunswick or in Canada. Some terms also let the casino refuse players from other places at its own discretion, or bar players where gambling is prohibited, so the sign-up form and the cashier have the final word. Every casino we cover is on our all casinos page.

Age, help and self-exclusion in New Brunswick

The legal age is 19. Atlantic Lottery says you must be 19 or older to buy, play or redeem its products. An offshore casino sets its own minimum age in its terms, which may be lower; SpinsPilot's rule for New Brunswick is 19+.

Help line: the Department of Health's Gambling Information Line gives free, confidential information at 1-800-461-1234. We could not read its hours on an official page, so we do not state them.

Self-exclusion: there are two separate programs.

  • Casino New Brunswick: the casino runs a voluntary self-exclusion program, and NBLGC's Responsible Gaming Information Centre at the casino covers it. The province's pages with the terms and durations did not load for us, so ask at the centre.
  • alc.ca: Atlantic Lottery's account self-exclusion suspends your account for 6, 12, 24 or 36 months, and you must complete an education program before it reopens. There is also a 24-hour pause and a mandatory weekly deposit limit.

No source we read says that one program covers the other, so treat them as separate.

Self-exclusion at an offshore casino is separate from the province's programs: excluding yourself from alc.ca does not block you at the casinos on this page, and the other way round. At an offshore casino, ask support in writing and keep the confirmation. Our self-exclusion guide covers each province, and our responsible gambling page covers the warning signs and how to set limits. Free, confidential help lines for every province and territory are in the footer of this page.

Taxes on winnings: the general rule

This is general information, not tax advice. The Canada Revenue Agency lists lottery winnings among the amounts that are not reported or taxed, unless the prize can be considered income from employment, a business or property. Its income tax folio on lottery winnings and gambling says that gambling, even when frequent, is not generally regarded as a commercial activity except under very exceptional circumstances. Interest you earn on winnings you invest must be reported. The same federal rules apply in New Brunswick. Our guide to tax on gambling winnings explains the rule in more detail; for your own situation, the CRA pages are the source.

Paying from New Brunswick

Interac e-Transfer from your own Canadian bank account is the first method to look for in a casino's cashier. You start the deposit in the casino's cashier and approve it in your bank's app, and your bank's sending limit applies. Interac Online was retired in 2024 and InstaDebit closed in 2026, so a casino that still lists them is out of date. Our Interac e-Transfer guide covers deposits, withdrawals and bank blocks step by step.

Other provinces and territories

Each province runs its own legal gambling, so the rules, the age and the help line change at the border. Our other province pages: Quebec, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Nova Scotia, British Columbia, Newfoundland and Labrador and Prince Edward Island, and our territory pages: Yukon, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut. Ontario and Alberta run their own regulated online markets, and this site does not serve them.

Frequently asked questions

Is online gambling legal in New Brunswick?

Under the Criminal Code, provinces conduct and manage gambling. In New Brunswick, that is the New Brunswick Lotteries and Gaming Corporation, and Atlantic Lottery runs its online games at alc.ca. The casinos on our list are based outside Canada and are not licensed by New Brunswick. Whether the law reaches an individual player at an offshore site is a legal question we do not answer; this is not legal advice.

What is the legal gambling age in New Brunswick?

The legal gambling age in New Brunswick is 19, as in most provinces; only Quebec and Manitoba set 18. Atlantic Lottery applies it to all its products. Offshore casinos set their own minimum age in their terms, sometimes 18. SpinsPilot's rule for New Brunswick is 19+.

Which casinos on your list accept players from New Brunswick?

36 of the 42 casinos on our list, because their own terms list restricted territories that we read, and New Brunswick is not among them. FUGU, GGBet, Martin and Pandido are left out because their terms refuse New Brunswick. Slotoro is listed for slotoro.bet, whose terms do not refuse New Brunswick; its second site, slotoro.casino, does. Tonybet and Vavada are left out because we could not read their terms. Being listed does not mean a casino is licensed in New Brunswick.

How do I self-exclude in New Brunswick?

Casino New Brunswick runs its own voluntary self-exclusion; ask at the Responsible Gaming Information Centre in the casino. Your alc.ca account has a self-exclusion for 6, 12, 24 or 36 months and a 24-hour pause. Neither reaches offshore casinos: at those, ask support for a self-exclusion and keep the written confirmation. The Gambling Information Line is 1-800-461-1234.

Do I pay tax on casino winnings in New Brunswick?

As a general rule, no. The Canada Revenue Agency lists lottery winnings among amounts that are not taxed, unless the prize can be considered income from employment, a business or property, and its folio on gambling says it is not generally a commercial activity except under very exceptional circumstances. Interest you earn on winnings is taxable. This is general information for New Brunswick readers, not tax advice; see the CRA page and our guide to tax on winnings.
