The Westio Sportsbook
Plenty of casino-first operators tack a sportsbook on as an afterthought. This one is a real part of the product: more than 40 sports, a live in-play section, a bet builder, cash out and a dedicated esports area, all running on the same account and wallet as the casino. You log in once, deposit once, and move between the slot floor and a Leafs, Oilers or Canucks game without transferring funds.
The layout is clean. The left rail lists sports in order of popularity with Canadian bettors, the centre shows today's events and the bet slip sits on the right (or slides up from the bottom on mobile). Odds can be displayed in decimal or American format, and the slip handles singles, parlays, round robins and system bets. For a 2026 launch, the depth of markets on the NHL and NFL is better than we expected.
Sports Covered
Here are the eight sports that matter most to Canadian bettors and how each one is covered.
Hockey
The centre of the book. Every NHL regular-season and playoff game is priced, along with the AHL, the major junior leagues and international events such as the World Juniors. Big games carry well over a hundred markets, including puck line, period betting, player points, shots on goal and the bet builder.
Football
Full NFL coverage from preseason to the Super Bowl, plus every CFL game through to the Grey Cup and the main NCAA conferences. Markets include spreads, totals, touchdown scorers, passing yards and same-game combinations.
Basketball
The NBA leads, followed by the EuroLeague and NCAA basketball. Point spreads, totals and player points are all available pre-game and live.
Baseball
Every MLB game across the season, with run line, totals, first-five-innings markets and pitcher props, plus futures on division winners and the World Series.
Soccer
MLS and the Canadian Premier League sit alongside the Premier League, the other major European leagues, the Champions League and international tournaments, with player props, cards and corners on the bigger matches.
Tennis
ATP, WTA and Challenger events, including the National Bank Open in Toronto and Montreal, with match, set and game betting. Tennis is one of the busiest in-play sports on the site, as prices move point by point.
Golf
Outright winner, each-way, top-10 finishes and head-to-head matchups on the PGA Tour and DP World Tour, with expanded markets for the four majors and the RBC Canadian Open.
Esports
A dedicated section for Counter-Strike 2, Dota 2, League of Legends and Valorant, with map winners, totals and live markets on the main tournaments.
Beyond these eight you will find MMA, boxing, lacrosse, curling, rugby, cricket, darts, motor sport and more — over 40 sports in total.
Live In-Play Betting
The in-play section lists every event currently running, grouped by sport, with a count of live markets on each. Prices update in real time and the slip confirms any odds change before you place the bet, so you are never accepted at a price you did not see.
Most live NHL and NFL games show an animated tracker with shots, possession and field position; tennis shows a point-by-point scoreboard. Cash out is offered on most singles and many parlays, in full and, on selected bets, as a partial cash out. Bet acceptance was quick in our testing, with only a short delay on goal- and touchdown-sensitive markets — standard across the industry and designed to stop bets being placed after the action has already happened.
The in-play view also handles several events at once. You can pin multiple games to a watchlist and follow their prices side by side, which helps on a packed Saturday night when every Canadian NHL team can be on the ice, or on an NFL Sunday with games stacked from 1 p.m. Eastern. Live hockey markets include next goal, period winner and total shots; football adds next scoring play and drive result; baseball offers runs in the next inning. Accepted bets are confirmed on screen and appear in your open bets right away, with settlement normally within minutes of the market closing.
Welcome Sports Bonus
New Canadian customers who pick the sports offer get a simple deal: bet C$15, get a C$15 free bet. Place a qualifying C$15 bet on any sport once your first deposit has cleared, and the free bet is credited after the qualifying bet settles.
- The free bet stake is not returned with any winnings — only the profit is paid.
- Minimum odds and the free bet's expiry date are listed in the offer terms.
- Deposits by Visa, Mastercard, Interac e-Transfer, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafecard, crypto or bank transfer all qualify.
The sports offer is separate from the casino welcome package of 150% up to C$750 + 200 Free Spins, so check which one you are opting into at sign-up. The full rules for both are on the bonuses page, and the payments guide explains deposit and withdrawal times.
Mobile Sportsbook
There is no App Store or Google Play app, but the sportsbook runs as a progressive web app from Safari or Chrome and can be added to your home screen in a couple of taps. On a phone the bet slip slides up from the bottom of the screen, the in-play list loads quickly over LTE, and the bet builder works with simple tap-to-add selections.
Notifications for settled bets and cash-out offers can be switched on in the browser. Because the casino and sportsbook share one wallet, you can check a live score between hands at the live tables without logging in twice. Our mobile experience score for the whole site was 9.0.
The PWA uses little storage and updates itself automatically, so there is nothing to download when new features arrive. Deposit limits, bet history and self-exclusion tools are all in the mobile account menu, not tucked away in the desktop version.
Responsible Sports Betting
Sports betting can feel like a game of skill, and that makes it easy to chase losses or bet more often than planned, especially with in-play markets open around the clock. The site provides a standard set of tools:
- Deposit limits by day, week or month, which also cover casino play.
- Reality checks, time-outs and account self-exclusion.
- A full bet history, so you can see what you have actually staked and won.
Bet only what you can afford to lose, and treat any free bet as a bonus rather than a reason to stake more. Free, confidential help is available from the Responsible Gambling Council and, in Ontario, ConnexOntario at 1-866-531-2600. You must be of legal age in your province — 19+, or 18+ in Alberta, Manitoba and Quebec — and identity checks are completed before your first withdrawal.
What's Next
The Westio sportsbook is a genuinely useful second half of the site rather than a token add-on: deep NHL and NFL coverage, full CFL and MLB slates, a solid in-play section with cash out, a bet builder and a proper esports area, all in one wallet with the casino. The welcome offer is easy to understand, with its terms set out in plain English.
If you want the casino side too, browse the slots and the live casino, or compare offers on the bonuses page. Ready to place a bet? Open the sportsbook and claim your C$15 free bet. 19+ (18+ in AB, MB, QC). responsiblegambling.org.
