Hard Rock Digital Expands into Ontario with New iGaming License

Hard Rock Digital has received a license to launch its prominent sports and casino digital brand in Ontario. The AGCO-granted license has a validity date through May 13, 2027, and may be extended. This marks an important expansion of the company’s efforts in North America, and especially following a land-based project in the province that opened in 2025.

Hard Rock Digital obtained a license from the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) on May 14, 2026. The license will have a validity period of a year through May 13, 2027, giving Hard Rock Digital a foothold in one of the most lucrative North American online casino markets. Hard Rock Bet joins dozens of available brands in Ontario, Canada.

Hard Rock Digital has a $350m Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Ottawa. The property was introduced in 2025, and it features a 150-room hotel, sizeable gaming floors, dedicated high-limit areas, live table games, and other wine & dine amenities and entertainment options, including the flagship facility - Hard Rock Live. Hard Rock Bet, the user-facing platform the company runs, is also available in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee, and Virginia, where it offers sports betting.
