Is sports betting legal in Newfoundland and Labrador?

Yes, legal sports betting exists in Newfoundland and Labrador. What’s more, single-game wagering is now available on Pro•Line Stadium. Although the Atlantic Lottery Corporation product is the only game in the easternmost province, bettors can still place real money wagers with any of the top offshore sports betting Canada sites legally operating today.

But don't expect big names like FanDuel Ontario, PointsBet, or BetRivers Ontario to touch down on The Rock any time soon. Unlike Ontario, no Atlantic province has shown interest in offering sports betting licences to third-party gaming operators.

N.L. sports betting updates

Single-game sports betting arrived in Newfoundland and Labrador and six other Canadian provinces on Aug. 27, 2021. The Safe and Regulated Sports Betting Act (Bill C-218) put the wheels in motion for legal single-event wagering in Newfoundland and Labrador.

The timeline below outlines key events in N.L.’s sports betting journey:

Jan. 6, 2025: The resignation of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau derails progress for Canada's sports betting bills. 

Aug. 27, 2021: The Atlantic Lottery Corporation announces that single-game sports betting has arrived in Newfoundland and Labrador, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island. Pro•Line players in these three provinces can place single-event wagers from anywhere in Atlantic Canada.

Aug. 12, 2021: Minister of Justice and Attorney General David Lametti reveals that single-event wagers will be legal nationwide effective Aug. 27, 2021.

June 29, 2021: Bill C-218 receives royal assent from Chief Justice of Canada Richard Wagner. Provincial lottery corporations await the announcement of when they can legally offer single-game sports betting.

June 22, 2021: In its third reading, the Senate approves C-218 by a convincing vote of 57-20.

April 22, 2021: Bill C-218 receives all-party support in the House of Commons.

Feb. 25, 2020: A private member’s bill, C-218, is introduced by Saskatoon-Greenwood Conservative MP Kevin Waugh. The bill aims to lift the federal ban on single-game sports betting in Canada.

August 2004: The Atlantic Lottery launches ‘PlaySphere’ — the first online lottery product in North America. PlaySphere’s parlay sports betting section allows gamblers in Newfoundland and Labrador to place wagers online. The online platform would later become alc.ca.

Who can bet on sports in Newfoundland and Labrador?

Newfoundland and Labrador legal online sports betting is for Atlantic Canadians aged 19 and older. Residents of N.L., New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island are all permitted to bet on sports with Pro•Line Stadium.

19plus Legal age

You must be 19 years of age to place a legal sports bet in Newfoundland and Labrador.

21plus Mobile betting

Newfoundland and Labrador sports betting is fully mobile. Atlantic Canadians in N.L. can place wagers on Pro•Line Stadium via the Atlantic Lottery mobile app, access the website from an internet browser, or opt to try out one of the best sports betting apps in Canada.

21plus Remote registration

N.L. bettors can register with Pro•Line Stadium, or another offshore betting sites, from anywhere in Atlantic Canada. Registration, deposits, and wagers do not need to be confirmed in person.

bank Retail sportsbooks

percent Taxable winnings

Lottery winnings are not considered taxable income in Newfoundland and Labrador (or any other Canadian province).

Latest N.L. betting news

The pros and cons of N.L. sports betting

With both mobile and single-game betting, bettors on The Rock have the foundation of a solid Canadian sports betting market to build on.

But betting restrictions and a lack of competition holds the province back. Until the top online sportsbooks are licensed to operate alongside the Atlantic Lottery Corporation, N.L. bettors will continue to place the majority of their bets with offshore websites.

How to start betting in Newfoundland and Labrador

N.L. sports bettors have a wide range of sportsbook options and wagering opportunities. Now that single-game sports betting has arrived, residents can place more reasonable wagers with the provincially regulated Pro•Line Stadium.

1

Select a sportsbook

Newfoundlanders and Labradorians can stick with Pro•Line Stadium or choose to try some of the top sportsbooks available to Canadian bettors. 

When making this decision, there’s much to consider, so take a look at betting lines, sign-up bonuses, banking options, and the level of customer support each sportsbook offers.

2

Register online

Once you’ve scoped out the top sportsbooks available and zoned in on the platform that best suits your betting style, you’ll be ready to register. Signing up with your chosen sportsbook should take just a few minutes. Fill in your personal information, confirm your identity, and don’t forget to enter a strong password.

When registering with Pro•Line Stadium, users must first create an alc.ca account.

3

Claim a bonus

Pro•Line offers small welcome bonuses to N.L. sports bettors, but offshore sportsbooks will give much more bang for your buck. Significant deposit matches and risk-free bets are the norms with Canada’s top online sportsbooks.

4

Deposit funds

Pro•Line Stadium accepts several deposit methods, including credit and debit cards, electronic bill payments, Interac e-Transfer, PayPal, WebCash, and promo codes. The top offshore sportsbooks also give N.L. bettors plenty of deposit options.

5

Choose your bet types

Popular bets in Newfoundland and Labrador include the point spread, moneyline, Over/Unders (totals), parlay bets, futures, live bets, and more.

6

Start betting

Always be sure to do your due diligence before confirming a wager. Not all sportsbooks will offer you the same betting lines, so shop around to find the most favourable betting opportunities out there. 

Check out our how to bet guides for a primer on how to get started.

7

Withdraw funds

Unlike deposits, withdrawals are not processed immediately. It can take up to five days to withdraw funds from most of the top offshore sportsbooks. N.L. bettors can access their winnings via methods like credit cards, e-Transfer, ecoPayz, and bank transfers on these websites.

Canadian bettors wagering with Pro•Line Stadium are limited to bank transfers only. 

Reading the odds

Decimal Odds are the default option for most sportsbooks in Canada. When odds are displayed as decimals, bettors can quickly identify favourites, underdogs, and their potential payout.

For example, let’s say the Boston Bruins (2.70) are playing against their rivals, the Toronto Maple Leafs (1.65). Since the Leafs have the lower decimal, they are considered the favourites. A bet on the underdog Bruins, while the riskier pick, could lead to a more significant payday. An $80 wager, for instance, would net you a total return of $216 ($80 x 2.70 odds) and $136 in profit ($216 - your $80 bet). Placing the same $80 wager on the Leafs ($80 x 1.65 odds) would give you $132 payout for a net gain of $52 ($132 - $80).

Our odds converter allows you to switch between the three main types of sports betting odds — American, decimal, and fractional odds.

What else can you bet on in Newfoundland and Labrador?

Now that single-game betting has come to The Rock and The Big Land via Pro•Line, there are very few restrictions when it comes to sports betting in N.L.

Covers hit icon

Awards ceremonies

Bettors in N.L. can legally wager on the outcome of popular awards shows like the Emmy Awards and Oscars.

Covers hit icon

Politics

Illegal in the United States, Canadians are allowed to bet on politics. Offshore political betting sites in Canada offer the most action, but Pro•Line will serve up betting lines on non-Canadian politics.

Covers hit icon

esports

Newfoundland and Labrador bettors can legally bet on virtual sports on Pro•Line Stadium or other offshore esports betting sites.

What about New Brunswick university sports?

U Sports in Canada don’t attract the same betting attention as NCAA does south of the border. For that reason, sportsbooks don’t offer much in the way of university betting action.

Home team advantage: Newfoundland and Labrador sports

N.L.'s sports landscape is dotted with fans, but no major professional franchise from the top leagues in North America. Hockey checks in as the most popular sport, as fans of the Montreal Canadiens and Toronto Maple Leafs fill the George Street pubs to cheer on their squads.

Other types of gambling

The Atlantic Lottery Corporation owns a monopoly on all commercial provincial gambling in Newfoundland and Labrador — but few brick-and-mortar gambling facilities exist on the Rock. Beyond VLTs (video lottery terminals), there’s not much to satisfy the appetite of the local bettor.

There are no land-based casinos in Newfoundland and Labrador. In fact, N.L. is the only Canadian province that has yet to legalize casino-style forms of gambling.

Online gamblers can opt to gamble with offshore online casinos, however. These online gambling platforms offer table games, slots, live casino experiences, and more.

poker Poker

It is legal for religious and charitable organizations to organize poker games and tournaments in N.L. A Games of Chance Licence needs to be obtained by poker tournament organizers, and there is a hard cap of $500 on total payouts in a tournament.

Horse and jockey Horse racing

Horse racing had been a popular sport in Newfoundland and Labrador for more than 50 years. However, racing within the province has been shuttered due to financial difficulties.

Online sportsbooks provide a much richer schedule for horse racing. Here, you can find lines and schedules for top horse racing events across the globe.
