About Casinos Toronto — Our Mission & Methodology | Casinos Toronto

About Casinos Toronto

Our mission, methodology, and commitment to Ontario players.

Who We Are

Casinos Toronto is an independent, Toronto-based guide to gambling in Ontario. We are not affiliated with any casino operator, gaming company, or the Ontario government. Our goal is to provide accurate, trustworthy information for Ontario residents who enjoy gambling as entertainment.

Our team includes writers and researchers based in the Greater Toronto Area with direct experience visiting the venues and testing the online platforms we cover.

Our Mission

To be the most trusted, locally-relevant gambling guide in the Greater Toronto Area — covering both local casino venues and the regulated online gaming market, with a strong emphasis on player safety and responsible gambling.

Editorial Independence

While we earn revenue through Google AdSense display ads and affiliate commissions from casino operators, our editorial reviews and recommendations are written independently. We do not accept payment to change a casino rating or to suppress negative information. Casino operators have no editorial control over our content.

If we discover an operator has worsened in quality after our initial review, we update the review promptly — including lowering ratings or removing listings entirely.

How We Rate Ontario Online Casinos

Every online casino listed on CasinosToronto.com must first be registered with iGaming Ontario (iGO). We then evaluate on five criteria:

Affiliate Disclosure

We participate in affiliate programs with licensed Ontario casino operators. When you click a casino link and sign up, we may earn a commission. This comes at no cost to you — casinos pay affiliates from their marketing budgets. All affiliate links are labelled with rel="nofollow sponsored" and are visually distinguished in our content. We only partner with iGO-registered operators.

Responsible Gambling Commitment

We take problem gambling seriously and include responsible gambling information on every page of this site. We link to Ontario-specific resources including ConnexOntario, OLG PlaySmart, and the iGO self-exclusion portal on every page. We refuse to use predatory marketing language or create urgency around gambling.

If you or someone you know is struggling with gambling, help is available free and confidentially at 1-866-531-2600 (ConnexOntario, 24/7).
