  How to read this table

The AiGC list shows which sites are registered on the reading date. It carries no date of its own, so every reading is dated here.

**Bottom line:** in Alberta, AGLC registers operators and AiGC manages the market, so the AiGC list is the gate.

The list gives brand names without legal entities. The ranking is on [the Alberta standings page](https://reviewstandings.com/alberta-sportsbook-standings/). To check a name yourself, follow [the five-step registration check](https://reviewstandings.com/check-sportsbook-registration-ontario-alberta/).

**Bottom line:** a name on the list on the reading date is a candidate, never a recommendation.

## What changed on 2026-07-13

The regulated market opened on 2026-07-13, and the page about [the opening](https://reviewstandings.com/alberta-regulated-market-opens-2026-07-13/) describes what it changed. The Government of Alberta published fact sheets on 2026-01-13 and 2026-07-14.

The fact sheets also describe reminders about tools and a "fit to play" confirmation for players. This site publishes no bonus, promo code or boosted odds for Alberta.

**Bottom line:** the market is months old, so lists and rules can still change.

## Self-exclusion and help

Self-exclusion in Alberta runs through selfexclusion.ca, the central AGLC program. It covers the registered iGaming sites. For support, call 211, or text INFO to 211. The fact sheet also names GameSense and Recovery Alberta.

Gambling involves risk. Play responsibly. 18+ in Alberta. See [help lines by province](https://reviewstandings.com/responsible-gambling/).

## What is not confirmed

- The date of the AiGC list: not shown on the page.
- Alberta's limits on advertising: reported only by a secondary source, so unconfirmed.
- AGLC's "Gaming Registrants" register: it did not open on 2026-11-06.
- A phone number from a search excerpt for an addiction help line: not found on the AiGC or fact-sheet pages, so it is not published.

Compare with other provinces on [the province rules page](https://reviewstandings.com/betting-rules-by-province/) and [the province snapshot](https://reviewstandings.com/province-rules-snapshot/).

## How we check

1. Open the AiGC registered sites list on a stated date.
2. Search each brand and record found or not found.
3. Read the fact sheets for age, tools and help lines.
4. Repeat weekly; a brand without an entry is removed at once.
