Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At FanDuel Sports Betting Canada, we believe that sports betting and gaming should be fun, exciting entertainment—never a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If you find yourself betting more than you can afford to lose, it's time to seek help.

Age Verification & Legal Requirements

FanDuel Sports Betting is only available to individuals who are 18 years of age or older in Canada. In some provinces, the legal age may be 19. It is your responsibility to comply with all applicable laws and regulations in your province or territory.

By using FanDuel, you confirm that you meet the legal age requirement in your jurisdiction.
