Interac e-Transfer at registered sportsbooks: where it works and what is published
As of 2026-11-13 the payments snapshot is still being built, so the count of registered sportsbooks that accept Interac e-Transfer is not published. PlayNow in British Columbia lists it on its official payment page. Ontario's standards 5.69 and 5.74 shape how deposits work there. The method is a transfer between bank accounts, which a card payment is not.

How to read this table
"Not published" means the figure is not yet in our records. The full table of methods, limits and fees is on the payments snapshot, and this page does not repeat it.
Bottom line: one operator is confirmed so far, and the rest of the column awaits dated readings.
What the method is
Interac e-Transfer is an Interac service that moves money between bank accounts. The rules and limits of the method are set on Interac's own page, which we read before a figure is published here. Each sportsbook then sets its own minimum and maximum.
Deposit and withdrawal are separate questions. Withdrawal times are on the Interac withdrawal page.
Bottom line: two sets of limits apply, the method's and the operator's, and both must be read.
What Ontario's rules say
In Ontario (ON), two AGCO standards bear on payments.
- Standard 5.69: a deposit has to be authorized by a financial services provider, and cryptocurrency is not accepted.
- Standard 5.74: operators must not extend credit or direct players to lenders.
The exact wording is re-checked against the AGCO text before this page states more. For crypto, see the crypto page.
Bottom line: in Ontario the deposit has to come through a financial services provider, and the operator cannot lend you the money.
Against a card payment
A card deposit runs on a card network, while Interac e-Transfer runs between bank accounts. Which cards sportsbooks accept, and what the rules say about credit, is on the card deposits page.
Whether banks block either method for gambling is not confirmed, so we make no claim. Before your first deposit, read the eight deposit checks.
Gambling involves risk. Play responsibly. 19+ in Ontario and British Columbia; 18+ in Alberta, Manitoba and Québec. Help lines are on the responsible gambling page.
Bottom line: the payment method changes how money moves, not the risk of losing it.

FAQ
Which registered sportsbooks accept Interac e-Transfer?
PlayNow in British Columbia lists it on its official payment page. For other operators the count is not published yet, because the payments table is still being built.
What are the limits for Interac e-Transfer deposits?
Interac's own page sets the rules and limits of the method, and each operator sets its own minimum and maximum. We have not recorded either yet, so this page states no figure.
What does Ontario require for deposits?
AGCO standard 5.69 has a deposit authorized by a financial services provider, and crypto is not accepted. Standard 5.74 prohibits operators from extending credit or directing players to lenders.
How is Interac e-Transfer different from a card?
It is a transfer between bank accounts and not a card payment. Whether a deposit is a credit card payment matters in Ontario because of standard 5.74, whose wording we re-check.
How long does an Interac withdrawal take?
Only the operator's own statement counts, and it is covered on a separate page. This page is about deposits.
