Our verdict

theScore Casino is built around its app and ties neatly into theScore's sports coverage, with local exclusives like Blue Jays Blackjack. It is smaller than the big multi-brand casinos, with a game count near 1,200, and the safety rating is only above average rather than top tier. AGCO issued a 105,000 CAD monetary penalty in 2025 over alleged responsible gambling failures.
