On Monday (November 20), the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation released a Request for Proposals to select a service provider to enhance and expand sports betting in Ontario.

OLG’s new sports offering is a key part of its vision to develop world class gaming entertainment for Ontario. New technology will bring innovation and variety to new sports products that will be available at retail locations, as well as online and through mobile devices.

Responsible Gambling is a priority for OLG. The new sports offering will include PlaySmart content for both online and retail channels and RG tools and resources will be available to online customers.

Ontario will be joining four other Canadian jurisdictions that offer sports products online and on mobile platforms, as well as at retail locations: Atlantic Canada, Quebec, Manitoba and British Columbia.

The OLG expects to select a service provider for a sports betting solution in fall 2018.

At more than $2.3 billion annually, OLG provides the Ontario government with its largest source of non-tax revenue.
