CanPlay casino free slots, the CanPlay lobby and its Ontario app have gone: CanPlay was an Ontario-regulated online casino in 2023, and later that year its address began redirecting to Stardust Casino. When we checked on 28 October 2026, on.canplaycasino.com did not resolve at all.
This page covers what CanPlay was, the dated evidence for what changed, and what that means for anyone who held an account. It carries no score, because there is no CanPlay site left to rate. Our review method explains how open casinos are scored.
What CanPlay Casino was
Archived copies of on.canplaycasino.com from 7 February to 26 March 2023 show a working casino titled "CanPlay Online Casino | Online Casino Games in Ontario". The site used GeoComply location checks, the mark of a build made for Ontario's regulated market. An archived copy of iGaming Ontario's directory from April 2023 lists CanPlay among the regulated sites, which means it then held an AGCO registration and an iGaming Ontario operating agreement.
No CanPlay-era terms page survives in the archive, so the company that held that registration is not confirmed. The evidence points to Pala Interactive. The iOS app CanPlay used carries the identifier com.palainteractive.canplaycasino.ontario, and the terms of Stardust Casino Ontario, the site that took over the address, name Pala Interactive Canada Inc. as licensed provider. Pala Interactive belongs to Boyd Gaming, which now publishes that app. CanPlay's licence number and launch date were never published in any source we found.
What changed, and when
| Date | What the record shows | Source |
|---|---|---|
| 27 October 2022 | First release of the iOS app that carries CanPlay's Ontario identifier and is now the Stardust Ontario app | Apple App Store listing |
| 7 February to 26 March 2023 | on.canplaycasino.com live as an Ontario casino | Archived copies of the site |
| 19 April 2023 | CanPlay listed in iGaming Ontario's regulated-market directory | iGaming Ontario directory (archived copy) |
| 25 September 2023 | CanPlay no longer in the directory | iGaming Ontario directory (archived copy) |
| 19 October 2023 | on.canplaycasino.com sends visitors on (HTTP 307) to on.stardustcasino.com, a page titled "Stardust Casino" | Archived copy of the site |
| 28 October 2026 | on.canplaycasino.com does not resolve at all; CanPlay absent from the live directory | Our check and the live directory |
No announcement of the switch was found. The change happened at some point between the last CanPlay capture on 26 March 2023 and the first redirect on 19 October 2023.
CanPlay casino slots and free slots: still available?
No. CanPlay casino slots sat on on.canplaycasino.com and inside the CanPlay app, and neither exists under that name any more. There is therefore no official place left to play CanPlay casino free slots. We hold no record of CanPlay's game list, and there is no CanPlay bonus or free-spins offer for Canadians as of October 2026.
Be careful with sites that still use the name. www.canplaycasino.com, for example, is a separate affiliate and blog site that was never the casino, and any page asking for a deposit under the CanPlay brand should be treated as unverified.
The casino publishes no game counts or provider list we could source.
What happened to CanPlay accounts
We found no notice from CanPlay or Pala Interactive telling former players what became of their accounts or balances, and no source says whether accounts moved across to Stardust. The record shows only that the company and the app carried on under the new name. If you believe money was left in a CanPlay account:
- Collect any emails, statements and bank records from the time you played.
- Put the question in writing to Pala Interactive Canada Inc., the provider named in the Stardust Ontario terms; our Stardust Casino review lists that site's support routes.
- Ignore anyone who asks for a fee to recover a CanPlay balance.
Is CanPlay legal in Ontario? Options for Canadians now
CanPlay is not part of Ontario's regulated market today: it left the iGaming Ontario directory in 2023, and we found no CanPlay site for any other province. How online casinos are regulated across Canada:
- Ontario: sites registered with the AGCO that hold an iGaming Ontario operating agreement, listed in iGaming Ontario's directory.
- Alberta: since 13 July 2026, sites registered with the AGLC under an Alberta iGaming Corporation agreement.
- Other provinces: each province's own site.
- Minimum age: 19, or 18 in Alberta, Manitoba and Quebec.
