Our verdict

PointsBet pays out fast, with Interac in one to two hours, and offers demo play, which is rare in Ontario. The serious caveat is its compliance record: two AGCO monetary actions, plus a proposed five-day suspension in February 2026 over alleged reporting failures tied to the Jontay Porter betting scandal. There is also no loyalty program.
