Reviewed by Alex Savelle, Casino reviews editor · reviewed June 17, 2026
Our verdict

BetNova is a properly AGCO and iGaming Ontario regulated launch from Goldrush Canada, with a Delasport-powered lobby of around 1,800 games from name studios like Evolution, Pragmatic Play, and Play'n GO, plus Interac that works both ways and pays out same day after your first cashout. The real catch is how new and unproven it is: it went live in April 2026 with no published welcome bonus or VIP program, a thin banking menu, and almost no review history to judge it by. Treat it as a credible but early option that still has to prove its payouts and support over time.

BetNova launched April 9, 2026, so several data points (game-type breakdown, bonus terms, aggregator ratings) are not yet publicly available for this new operator. A separate offshore 'Betnova Casino' (Isla Roja Limited, Anjouan licence) reviewed on Casino Guru is a different company and was excluded throughout. Alberta market is pending the July 13, 2026 competitive go-live.
