Online poker in Ontario

Updated By the Ontario.gg Editorial Team

Six sites carry the Poker label in iGaming Ontario's catalogue, and five of them have a review of their own here. PokerStars has no listing of its own: in Ontario it runs as PokerStars on FanDuel, the site listed as FanDuel Poker. Bwin is the only one also listed under Sports Betting, and has no review here. Like every site in the catalogue, they accept only players who are physically in Ontario.

Where PokerStars stands in Ontario

PokerStars has no listing of its own in iGaming Ontario's catalogue (listing of September 1, 2026). As of November 5, 2026, the AGCO register files poker.fanduel.ca, the address the catalogue gives for FanDuel Poker, under the brand name “PokerStars on FanDuel” within FanDuel Canada ULC's registration, and the PokerStars On FanDuel app has been on the Canadian App Store since June 4, 2026. So the name reaches regulated Ontario players only through FanDuel. Rake, apps and what we couldn't confirm are on our FanDuel Poker review.

The court case over shared player pools

A case at the Supreme Court of Canada could change who Ontario players meet at the tables. On February 2, 2024 Ontario asked its Court of Appeal whether legal online gaming and sports betting would stay lawful under the Criminal Code if players could take part in games and betting with people outside Canada, under a model the province attached to its order.

On November 12, 2025 a majority of that court answered yes for the proposed model (2025 ONCA 770). One judge, van Rensburg J.A., dissented and would have answered no. Atlantic Lottery Corporation, the British Columbia Lottery Corporation and Manitoba Liquor and Lotteries Corporation, and Loto-Québec appealed. The Supreme Court heard the case on October 7, 2026 and had not ruled as of November 5, 2026 (file 42141).

If the majority's answer stands, iGaming Ontario's 2026–2029 business plan says the agency can pursue “international liquidity for peer-to-peer (P2P) games including poker.” Our page on international poker liquidity in Ontario sets out the model, both courts' answers and what a ruling would change.
