“The launch of online games and single-event sports betting opens up new casino entertainment options for residents,” said Susan Flett, President and CEO of Sask Gaming. “The launch is also ideal with Saskatchewan hosting the Grey Cup of the Year in November.”

“Residents will be happy to know that the proceeds are invested back into the week when they play games on the PlayNow site,” said Hansen, unlike other gray market sites. “Similar to traditional offline casinos in the state, all the net proceeds from the PlayNow site are invested back into Saskatchewan,” he said.

PlayNow also partnered with Saskatchewan Roughriders to sign a PlayNow sponsorship deal. Riders will promote new online games and sports betting sites by attaching PlayNow logos to their uniforms, starting with a home game against the Calgary Stampeders on Saturday, October 22.

“We are excited to welcome PlayNow as a valued partner and new member of the powerful Ryder Nation,” said Craig Reynolds, president and CEO of the Saskatchewan Roughrider Football Club.

PlayNow in Saskatchewan is provided by BCLC, based on British Columbia’s successful PlayNow business model, and features many of the same entertainment casinos and sports betting products supported by global vendors and strategic partnerships with BCLC.파워볼실시간

Saskatchewan will be the only gambling website in North America and the third state to use BCLC’s PlayNow.com platform, one of the few worldwide, and has dedicated gaming experts (known as GameSense Advisors) available via live chat to support safer games online. PlayNow meets high standards for safety, security, technological integrity, age verification and accountability gambling.

The Sovereign Indigenous Nations Alliance and the state signed an innovative agreement in September 2021, allowing SIGA to introduce PlayNow in Saskatchewan. The agreement is the first in Canada and further strengthens the partnership between FSIN and the state government in Saskatchewan’s gaming sector.
