About TheScore Bet
theScore Bet is what happens when the sports app on millions of North American phones — a third of them Canadian — grows a sportsbook and casino. Built by a Toronto family from a 1990s television channel into the country's dominant scores app, the company was acquired by Penn Entertainment for roughly US$2 billion in 2021 and launched betting on the first day of Ontario's market. In late 2025 it became Penn's flagship brand across the continent.
It holds an iGaming Ontario registration under AGCO oversight (licence OPIG1294141, verified active) with zero player complaints on file. The integration with the scores app is genuinely one-tap, the table benches are among Ontario's deepest (230-plus virtual, 180-plus live), banking spans ten methods including Interac, PayPal, Trustly and Apple Pay, and a Blue Jays partnership brings an exclusive Blue Jays Blackjack table. The candid caveats: a 2025 AGCO fine for responsible-gambling monitoring failures, a dormant-account clause that can void balances after 12–18 months (among the shortest windows we have seen), and a thin progressive-jackpot bench.
TheScore Bet in Ontario's regulated market
TheScore Bet operates legally in Ontario's regulated online gambling market, which opened on April 4, 2022. 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. TheScore Bet holds AGCO registration OPIG1294141, listed as Active — you can confirm it on the AGCO's public registrant list. Only operators that clear this registration may legally offer real-money play to players in Ontario, and all play must go through the operator's official Ontario site, thescore.bet.
