Ontario has recently lost another platform, with Maverick Games confirming the closure of its sportsbook and online casino on November 2, 2026.
The betting platform announced a phased shutdown throughout October, with new registrations, deposits, and wagering gradually being disabled ahead of its final closure.
Maverick Games' departure comes less than 17 months after the company launched its sportsbook in Ontario in June 2025.
Maverick Games Ontario Shuts Down
Maverick Games, operated by Shelgeyr Ontario Limited, was an Isle of Man-registered company with Canadian headquarters in Waterloo, Ontario.
They officially announced the departure from Ontario through a notice published on their website, confirming that it would cease all operations on November 2, 2026.
Maverick proceeded to stop accepting new player registrations on October 1, followed by deposits on October 9. All sports betting and online casino wagering ended on October 16, leaving existing customers until November 2 to withdraw their remaining balances.
The operator entered Ontario's regulated market in 2025, launching its sportsbook on June 12. However, after less than a year and a half in the market, the operator has now closed both its sports betting and casino services.
