Stake Dominates Canadian Market, Rainbet Shows Explosive Growth

The Canadian market's Competitive Earning Baseline (CEB) between April 2025 and March 2026 reached an impressive $11.37 billion, placing it third globally, behind the USA and the UK.

A significant 65% of this volume is generated by offshore brands, with only 84 out of 271 monitored operators holding a licence in at least one Canadian province.

Unmatched Leadership By Stake

Stake emerges as the clear leader, boasting a CEB of $2.49 billion. It surpasses its closest competitor, Roobet, by a remarkable 3.6 times, with Roobet posting $687.6 million. Offshore crypto casinos such as Stake, Roobet, and Rainbet dominate the top of the list.

Rainbet's Impressive Surge

Rainbet has shown extraordinary growth, with a staggering +1890% year-on-year increase, the highest among the top 10. This mirrors trends seen in the US market, driven by influencer marketing and crypto, and a clientele not restricted by regulations.

Provincial Monopolies And Market Shifts

PlayNow, Loto-Québec, and PlayAlberta represent the provincial monopolies within the top 10, although PlayAlberta saw a decline of -11.57% year-on-year. This is linked to Alberta's plans to welcome private operators in July 2026, signaling a probable migration of players to new platforms.

The Rise Of Betty In Ontario

Betty is noteworthy for its exclusive operations in Ontario, positioning itself as an inclusive entity specifically catering to female players. Their strategy leans on in-house marketing rather than affiliate networks. Notably, Betty has become the leader in Ontario, with nearly double the CEB of its nearest rival, Bet365.
