Read our full BetMGM Ontario review

What you see in BetMGM’s online casino app is exactly what you get from its extravagant brand identity. Greeted by a robust gaming selection, the app’s homepage is essentially a one-stop shop for everything the site has to offer. A simple swipe down will reveal BetMGM’s abundant catalogue of games, all organized under easy-to-decipher headings. The horizontal scroll bar at the top of the homepage allows users to filter their game search down to specifically what they’re looking for. With eight available deposit methods and an extensive selection of responsible gaming tools, there is a reason BetMGM Casino ranks number one.

What we like

✅ Insiders look at game trends
✅ Prominent focus on responsible gambling

What we don’t like

❌ Slower playback speed and responsiveness

Read our full SlotsMagic Ontario review

At first glance, the SlotsMagic online casino app doesn’t appear to have the cleanest layout. However, it makes up for it with smartly crafted and well-defined filter tabs. Here, the site’s game portfolio is easily accessible at the click of a button. On top of having traditional wares such as slots, live casino, jackpots, etc., SlotsMagic also has video bingo and scratch cards. The operator’s most interesting feature, though, is the “Hot/Cold” page. When in this section, players can see which games currently have the highest (hot) and lowest (cold) payouts.

What we like

✅ Organized layout is very user-friendly
✅ Activity summaries pop up during gaming sessions

What we don’t like

❌ Moving banner showcasing other users’ wins can be misleading

New promos can be very beneficial for users, but a barrage of them can also be off-putting. BetRivers, which has an option to disable promo boosts for 24 hours, understands that. Once past the promo parade, users advance to the BetRivers homepage, which closely resembles that of its sportsbook. In fact, the slider at the top of the screen is identical, but with casino icons as opposed to professional sports league icons. Highlighted by a strong selection of table games, BetRivers’ gaming catalogue is diverse and very easily accessible. Overall, the games load pretty quickly and are presented in an organized fashion.

What we like

✅ Extensive slot selection
✅ Smooth sign-up with straightforward ID verification

What we don’t like

❌ Acclimation period

Read our full Caesars Palace Ontario Online Casino review

Upon your first foray into Caesars Palace, it may take a moment to find your bearings. For instance, the animated thumbnails posted up in the middle of the home screen can distract from the site’s impressive array of gaming options. But after settling in, perhaps using the helpful filters and search bar to point you in the right direction, it soon becomes clear that Caesars Palace Ontario has what you need. A seamless sign-up process makes for a pleasant experience that goes beyond what’s just available in the app.

What we like

✅ Clean layout with no clutter
✅ Extensive live casino offering

What we don’t like

❌ App can become fidgety after long stays

Read our full PlayOJO Casino review

Another member of the “Hot/Cold” club, PlayOJO Casino boasts a very clean layout with strong contrast between headings and the background. The game filter icons on the home screen are very pronounced and equally responsive, making for a smooth transition between library items. That said, the home screen, by comparison, has fewer gaming options than other platforms. However, clicking the hamburger menu located at the bottom of the page will unlock PlayOJO’s full catalogue. The app also requires two-factor authentication at sign-up with a simple code sent to a mobile device, which brings peace of mind considering how little effort is needed.

What we like

✅ Beginners guide + multilingual live support
✅ Strong catalogue of slot options

What we don’t like

❌ Responsible gaming resources need to be more prominently featured

Read our full Wildz Ontario review

Despite not having a traditional app, Wildz Casino’s mobile site is very responsive and intuitive. The home screen is not overly abundant but enough so that players can get a feel for what the site has to offer. From there, the high-hanging menu bar provides a clear picture of Wildz overall selection. Between slots, live casino, and table games, users can search for individual games, providers, and tags to narrow down their search. This comes in handy, especially for new players, who are looking to find which games appeal most to them. Wildz beginners casino guide, found at the bottom of the homepage, is an excellent resource for those new to the online casino space.

What we like

✅ Superb selection of traditional and exclusive games
✅ Personalized suggestions based on gaming activity

What we don’t like

❌ Deposit options are limited

Read our full DraftKings Online Casino Ontario review

Although the DraftKings Casino app doesn’t feature sportsbook integration, its layout closely mirrors that of its partner site. A simple black and white colour scheme immediately puts any visibility concerns to rest, while allowing DraftKing’s rich library of games to shine. This is especially true when scanning the individual tabs that house the unique games you’re looking for. Headlined by 450+ slot games, DraftKings casino features an exciting mix of jackpots, live dealer, table games, and DK exclusives that all run very smoothly during play. But to that point, the elaborate selection of games can cause the screen to lag if you scroll too quickly. A double-edged sword, if you will.

What we like

✅ Impressive number and style of gaming choices
✅ Straightforward sign-up process

What we don’t like

❌ Limited slot titles

Read our full PokerStars Casino Ontario review

Thanks to a smooth sign-up process, the barriers between you and PokerStars’ bounteous game portfolio are virtually non-existent. Complete with sportsbook integration, PokerStars online casino also features an incredible live casino selection of 80+ games. In addition to boasting a solid gaming catalogue, the site does an excellent job of spotlighting popular and new games through its ‘Game of the Week’ heading on the casino page. PokerStars also runs tournaments throughout the day, varying in buy-in size, number of players, and prize pool. Capping off the impressive offering is a well-executed responsible gambling section, which is reassuring when playing in a high-volume environment like PokerStars.
