Our verdict

theScore Casino is built around its app and ties neatly into theScore's sports coverage, with games exclusive to PENN Entertainment's Ontario sites, such as Blue Jays Blackjack. Its Ontario lobby now holds just over 3,000 games, and the 7.8/10 safety rating is above average rather than top tier. In 2025, the AGCO issued Score Media and Gaming Inc. a C$105,000 monetary penalty over alleged responsible-gambling failures. The action names theScore but does not distinguish the casino from the sportsbook.

Structure: Deposit at least C$10 and wager C$5 in cash on casino games to get 30 Bonus Spins, then opt in daily for nine more days to collect 30 a day, 300 spins in total at C$0.20 each. Net cash losses on eligible games in the 24 hours after the first eligible cash wager also come back at 100% as theScore Bet Credits, up to C$500.

Eligibility: New players aged 19 or older who are physically in Ontario. The spins are for accounts with no wager on theScore Bet, theScore Casino or Hollywood Casino before July 13, 2026. Each offer is limited to one per account.

Game weighting: Losses on live games, craps, roulette, baccarat, War, First Person Dragon Tiger and Red Baron do not count toward the loss-back.

Claim window

  • ·Use each batch of Bonus Spins within 3 days
  • ·The loss-back covers the 24 hours after the first eligible cash wager
  • ·Use theScore Bet Credits within 7 days of receipt

The 1x requirement applies to the loss-back theScore Bet Credits, which also work on theScore Bet's sportsbook. Credits can't be cashed out: a winning slot bet pays the win in cash without the stake, and a winning table-game bet returns the stake and the win in cash. Bonus Spin winnings go straight to the cash balance.

Relationship: Operated by the subject at the time: Direct theScore brand link; affected product undisclosed.

The action does not distinguish theScore sportsbook from the casino. Hollywood Casino launched later and is not implicated.
