PointsBet review: the short version
PointsBet is a provincially registered online casino founded in 2022. In our review, its main strengths are C$5 minimum deposit, PayPal and Interac and easy navigation, while the weak points are small game selection and only two studios.
With a score of 7.7/10 it sits in the top half of our ranking. Its strongest area is licence and its weakest is extras, on the same licence, wagering, payout, games, payments and extras model we use for every casino. The rest of this PointsBet review covers safety, login, registration, the bonus, games, deposits and withdrawals, mobile play and where it is available.
Is PointsBet legit and safe in Canada?
Yes. PointsBet is registered in Ontario and Alberta, which means it is approved by iGaming Ontario, the AGCO and the AGLC and must follow provincial rules on fair games, identity checks, advertising and complaints. Registered sites are the safest choice for players in those provinces.
The operator is not named in the data we hold. Licence listed: AGCO. Before you deposit, check that the licence number in the site's footer matches the regulator's public register; our legit online casinos guide shows how. On our safety scale PointsBet rates Good.
See casino licences explained for how provincial registration compares with other regulators, and how to complain about a casino if a withdrawal is refused.
PointsBet login and official site
The official site is pointsbet.ca. Logging in takes the email or username you signed up with and your password; the Log in button is at the top of every page. If you forget the password, use the reset link on the login form; it is sent to your registered email.
Bookmark pointsbet.ca and log in from the bookmark; fake login pages that copy casino sites are the most common account theft. A provincially registered site only uses its approved domain. Use two-factor authentication if PointsBet offers it.
How to sign up at PointsBet
- Open pointsbet.ca and choose Join now.
- Enter your details: email, password, full name, date of birth, address and phone, exactly as they appear on your ID.
- Confirm your email or phone with the code PointsBet sends.
- Set a deposit limit before your first deposit; it can be lowered at any time.
- Make your first deposit (minimum C$5).
- Verify your identity with photo ID and proof of address, which registered sites require before you can play.
You must be 19 or older to play in most provinces, or 18 in Alberta, Manitoba and Quebec. See our gambling age by province guide and the KYC verification guide for the documents casinos ask for.
PointsBet bonus and promotions
PointsBet is a registered site for Ontario and Alberta only, and provincial rules ban public advertising of casino bonuses there. That is why we do not list a welcome amount: registered operators can show you their offers only after you open an account. Once registered, check the promotions page and your account inbox for the current deal.
When you see an offer, judge it the same way as any bonus: the wagering multiplier, whether it applies to the bonus only, the maximum bet and the expiry. Our wagering calculator turns any offer into a total you need to bet. Players outside Ontario and Alberta can compare offshore offers on our casino bonuses page.
PointsBet games and software providers
PointsBet does not publish a game count. The lobby covers slots, blackjack, roulette, baccarat and live dealer games.
PointsBet deposits and withdrawals
PointsBet lists 5 payment methods, including Interac e-Transfer, the easiest option for most Canadians.
| Method | Type | Typical payout once approved | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Interac e-Transfer | Bank transfer | Same day to 1 day | The most used method in Canada |
| PayPal | E-wallet | Hours to 1 day | Mainly at Ontario-registered sites |
| Visa | Card | 3 to 5 banking days | Some banks decline gambling payments |
| Mastercard | Card | 3 to 5 banking days | Withdrawals to card not always offered |
| Bank transfer | Bank wire | 2 to 5 banking days | Used for large withdrawals |
Times in the table are typical for each method in Canada, not promises from PointsBet. Card, e-wallet and voucher deposits arrive instantly; bank transfers take longer.
PointsBet withdrawal time
PointsBet states withdrawals take 0–2 days with the fastest methods, which we class as average (better than the median of 72 hours across our list). The minimum withdrawal is not stated, and no withdrawal cap is stated in the data we hold.
How to withdraw from PointsBet
- Verify your account with ID and proof of address.
- Finish or cancel any active bonus.
- Open the PointsBet cashier, choose Withdraw and pick the method you deposited with; Interac e-Transfer is usually the quickest here.
- Enter the amount and confirm.
- Wait for approval, then for the payment method's transfer time.
Canada does not tax recreational gambling winnings (more on tax). If a payout stalls, our withdrawal guide lists the usual reasons.
PointsBet app and mobile casino
PointsBet offers an app for iOS and Android, as well as the mobile site. On iPhone it is downloaded from the App Store; on Android, check whether the app is on Google Play in your province or offered as a download from the official site. Only install apps from the store or the casino's official domain. Compare more casino apps.
Is PointsBet available in Ontario and the rest of Canada?
PointsBet is available only in Ontario and Alberta, where it is a registered operator. Players in other provinces cannot open an account; they can use their provincial lottery site or an offshore casino.
