Is sports betting legal in the Northwest Territories?

Yes, sports betting is legal in the Northwest Territories. You must be 19 to gamble, yet the minimum age is 18 for some offshore sportsbooks. Single-game wagering was allowed in Canada in 2021, thanks to Bill C-218. NT residents can make a single bet offline using Sport Select, a Western Canada Lottery Corporation product. However, the choice of betting markets is very modest, with only game-winner, over/under, and point spread on offer. There’s no chance to bet on Esports or non-sports events in the Northwest Territories.

Is online sports betting legal in the Northwest Territories?

Pic about is online sports betting legal in the Northwest Territories?

No, there are no licensed online bookmakers in the area. However, Northwest Territories online sports betting still exists, as many locals use offshore sportsbooks. There are no signs of a licensed online sportsbook evolving soon.

Where can I bet on sports in the Northwest Territories?

You can bet offline, attending one of 40+ licensed retail places, usually at gas stations, grocery stores, or convenience stores. Get a Sport Select ticket, a Western Canada Lottery Corporation product, make your selections and pay for the wage. Keep the ticket because otherwise, you won’t be able to collect your winnings if the bet wins.

As there are no licensed betting sites in the Northwest Territories (N.W.T.), the only other option would be to use the services of one of the offshore sportsbooks. Bookies can’t technically operate in Canada without a license, but country residents are not prohibited from placing bets there.
