About this business
About theScore Bet
theScore Bet, the betting arm of Canada's dominant sports app and now Penn Entertainment's continental flagship, is registered with AGLC for Alberta's regulated online market opening July 13, 2026 — one of three Penn-registered brands in the province. Alberta play is conducted and managed by the Alberta iGaming Corporation (AiGC), and the brand will be available to players from Calgary province-wide once live.
Expect one-tap integration with the scores app, deep table benches and ten banking methods. AGLC registration is the first regulatory step, not a day-one guarantee — the operator still needs its AiGC agreement and go-live testing, so confirm the brand on AGLC's current list.
theScore Bet and Alberta's regulated market
Alberta becomes Canada's second competitive regulated iGaming market when it opens on July 13, 2026. Reaching launch is a two-step process: an operator first registers with Alberta Gaming, Liquor & Cannabis (AGLC), then signs a commercial agreement with the Alberta iGaming Corporation (AiGC), which conducts and manages the market — the same structure Ontario has used with iGaming Ontario since 2022. theScore Bet has cleared the first step; a firm go-live still depends on that AiGC agreement plus technical and self-exclusion testing. Registered is not the same as live, so the reliable check is AGLC's current list of registered operators.
What to expect from theScore Bet
One-tap integration with the scores app, deep table benches and ten banking methods. Exact game availability, payment methods and any Alberta welcome offer will be confirmed when the province goes live.
