Hard Rock Bet Enters Ontario as Company's First International Online Gaming Market

Hard Rock Digital has expanded its online gaming operations beyond the United States for the first time, launching Hard Rock Bet in Ontario. The integrated platform features a sportsbook and an online casino stocked with more than 3,000 games, including slots, table games, and live dealer content.

Ontario, Canada’s largest regulated iGaming market, was chosen as the initial international target. The digital launch complements the existing Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Ottawa property, leveraging the brand’s physical presence in the province.

Marlon Goldstein, Executive Managing Director & CEO of Hard Rock Digital, said the move “marks the first time we’ve brought our platform to an audience outside the U.S.” He added that the company invested in local talent, partnerships, and customer support to tailor the experience specifically for Ontario players, aiming to reflect the energy and service associated with the Hard Rock brand.

Christine Crump, President of Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Ottawa, commented: “we’re excited to see that spirit extend into the digital space.” She described the launch as a natural next step for the brand in Ontario, building on the connection developed with guests and players through the physical venue.
