Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At mycapis.ca, we believe that sports betting should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Please gamble responsibly and only bet what you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
Sports betting in Canada is only available to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (or the legal age in your province, whichever is higher). By accessing mycapis.ca, you confirm that you meet the legal age requirement in your jurisdiction.
If you are under the legal gambling age, please do not use our services.
