The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation has lauded the passage of legislation that will permit single event sports wagering in Canada, and has detailed the imminent launch of Proline+.
Set to be launched on August 27, the same day which the sports betting legislation comes into force in Canada, Proline+ will enable Ontario-based players to place a legal bet on a single event from their mobile device, tablet, or desktop device.
“OLG has been looking forward to offering single event sports wagering to adult Ontarians for many years,” commented Duncan Hannay, OLG President and CEO.
“We’re thrilled that we’ll be able to incorporate this exciting feature that bettors have been anxiously awaiting into Ontario’s only legal online sportsbook.
“In fact, OLG is imminently launching a new digital sports betting platform Proline+, which will provide the same security and trust that has been established by OLG’s sports products over the last thirty years.”
OLG is currently accepting early registrations for Proline+, which includes thousands of new betting options that will be available at any time across all major North American sports leagues and major international sports.
Active OLG.ca users will be able to use their existing accounts to log in and bet when Proline+ goes live. New players can sign up now at proline.ca to be eligible for a $50 sports bonus offer.
The OLG says that Proline+ will promote responsible gambling and features player tools and educational materials from OLG’s globally PlaySmart program, which it adds “received the highest level of certification from the World Lottery Association”.
An active OLG.ca account is required to play Proline+ and players must be 19 years of age or older and located in Ontario.
OLG returns all its profit to the Ontario government for reinvestment in strong communities, health care, and other provincial priorities.
