About this business
About DraftKings Casino
DraftKings arrived in Ontario in May 2022 carrying a brand built somewhere unusual: daily fantasy sports. The Boston company founded in 2012 turned a DFS empire into a sportsbook and then a casino, and that heritage shows everywhere in the product, from the gamified rewards to an in-house game studio.
It holds an iGaming Ontario registration under AGCO oversight (licence OPIG1238029, verified active). The reported payout is a strong 97%, with per-game RTP published and demo play available on almost everything — an unusually transparent, try-before-you-bet setup. More than 125 exclusive in-house games include the crash title Rocket, card withdrawals often clear in under a day, and the entry is a $5 deposit. A Dynasty Rewards program spans casino and sportsbook with Crowns, tiers and missions. The soft spots: support chat is bot-first and reaching a human took about ten minutes in testing, the live-dealer room is mid-sized, and the operator drew an early-market AGCO penalty over bonus advertising.
DraftKings Casino in Ontario's regulated market

The market is conducted and managed by iGaming Ontario, a subsidiary of the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), which registers and regulates every operator. DraftKings Casino holds AGCO registration OPIG1238029, listed as Active — you can confirm it on the AGCO's public registrant list.
