Not to be confused with Stake.com. "Stake Canada Ltd." on Alberta's registrant list belongs to a different company. Stakes, with an s, is not that.
Our 2023 review named a Curaçao licence and the companies Mountberg B.V. and Flavidus Limited. The current site confirms none of it.
Why we don't list it
Simple rule: if a casino won't tell you who it is, we won't send you there.
A licence and a named company are the minimum. They tell you whose terms you're agreeing to, who holds your balance and where to complain. Without them, a dispute has nowhere to go. That's not a judgement on how the site plays. It may pay perfectly well. We just can't show you any evidence either way, and the Canadian-looking setup (French, Interac) makes the gap more serious, not less, because it suggests Canadians are the target.
What Stakes was in 2023
Our old review described a casino that entered Canada in 2016, with a Curaçao licence, around 3,000 games from studios like Betsoft, NetEnt and Evolution, and wagering it called low. It read like a fairly typical offshore casino of its time. The web archive shows the site responding normally through May 2026, so it never really went away; it just stopped telling visitors who runs it.
Why would a casino drop that information? We don't know, and we won't speculate about a specific company. In general, a missing licence line is either sloppiness or something the operator prefers you not to look up. Neither is a good sign at a place that holds your money.
If Stakes adds a verifiable licence and operator to its footer, we'll look again and update this page with the date.
How to check a casino licence yourself
Five minutes, any casino:
- Scroll to the footer. Look for a company name, a registration number and a regulator. All three, not one.
- Check the regulator's own list. For Kahnawake, the permit-holder page. In Ontario, the iGO operator directory. In Alberta, the AGLC registrant list.
- Match the domain, not only the brand name. Copycats exist.
- Read the terms for the same company name. If the footer and the terms disagree, ask why.
A badge picture in the footer is not a licence. Click it; a genuine seal usually opens a verification page on the regulator's own domain. Like checking the expiry date at the dépanneur: takes a second, saves a bad surprise.
