PowerPlay has launched its online sportsbook in Alberta after securing approvals from provincial authorities, Yogonet reported on Wednesday, 1 October. Alberta's regulated iGaming market opened in July 2026, and the province becomes PowerPlay's second Canadian market after Ontario.

The Alberta platform carries Canadian payment options including Interac, locally targeted promotions and what the operator describes as community-focused customer support.

Thomas Vermeulen, PowerPlay's marketing director, said: "Ontario gave us valuable insight into operating successfully within Canada's regulated gaming environment."

Alberta fills up

Three months after opening, Alberta's market is still adding brands, and each new entrant means another welcome offer in front of the same pool of players. For readers in the province the practical test is the same as anywhere: confirm the operator's provincial licence first and read the bonus terms second.

Key takeaways

  1. PowerPlay's online sportsbook is live in Alberta after approvals from provincial authorities.
  2. Alberta's regulated market opened in July 2026; it is PowerPlay's second Canadian province after Ontario.
  3. The platform offers Canadian payment methods including Interac.
