Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Vibrant Casino, we believe gambling should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. It should never be considered as a way to earn money, pay bills, or solve financial problems. If you find yourself gambling to make money or recover losses, it may be time to reassess your relationship with gaming.
Please gamble responsibly and within your means. The outcome of games of chance is always unpredictable, and the house always has a mathematical advantage.
Age Verification
You must be 18 years of age or older to participate in online gambling in Canada, or the legal gambling age in your province, whichever is higher. Some provinces have higher age requirements:
- Alberta: 18+
- British Columbia: 19+
- Manitoba: 18+
- New Brunswick: 19+
- Newfoundland and Labrador: 19+
- Nova Scotia: 19+
- Ontario: 19+
- Prince Edward Island: 19+
- Quebec: 18+
- Saskatchewan: 18+
We verify all players' ages during account registration. If you are underage, you cannot and should not access our platform.
