Registration is a form, and forms are dull. But three of the choices in ours are awkward to undo, and one of them quietly costs you the whole welcome bonus if you skip it. Those are the parts to slow down for. The rest is name, email, password, done.
The three that matter
Currency — pick CAD unless you have a real reason not to. Changing it later means a support ticket and usually an empty balance. Name and date of birth — these have to match the ID you'll send us, exactly, middle names included. Bonus opt-in — select the welcome offer at the cashier before your first deposit confirms. There's no reliable way to add it afterwards.
What should you have to hand?
Gather these first and the whole thing runs without a pause.
- An email address you actually read. Activation links, withdrawal confirmations, free-spin notices and password resets all land there. An abandoned inbox will cost you a bonus tranche eventually.
- Your legal name as your ID prints it. Not a shortened version. Mismatches between account and document are the top cause of verification delays we see.
- Your date of birth and province. Legal age is 18 in Alberta, Manitoba and Quebec, and 19 across the rest of Canada.
- A payment method in your own name. We reject third-party payments, so the card, bank account or wallet has to be yours.
- A password you use nowhere else, ideally generated and stored by a password manager.
You don't need to send documents to register. Verification is separate and only becomes compulsory before your first withdrawal — though there's a strong case for doing it on day one, which we come back to below.
How does registration go, step by step?
-
Open oxibet.com and tap Sign Up
The button sits beside Login at the top-right. Check the address bar reads oxibet.com before you type anything — registration forms on lookalike domains exist to collect personal data.
-
Enter your email and set a password
Your email becomes your username; there's no separate handle to remember. Passwords are case-sensitive and should be unique to us. Let a manager generate a long random string if you'd rather not think about it.
-
Choose CAD as your account currency
We offer CAD, USD and EUR. Take CAD. Interac deposits then arrive at face value, withdrawals return without a conversion spread, and every figure you read on this site matches what your cashier shows.
-
Fill in your details exactly as your ID reads
First name, last name, date of birth, address, province. Copy from the document you'll upload rather than from memory. If your licence says Jonathan, don't register as Jon. That one habit prevents most rejections.
-
Confirm your age and accept our terms
You'll confirm you're of legal age where you live and accept our terms and privacy policy. Ontario is blocked at this point by IP address and postal code — we don't hold an iGaming Ontario registration.
-
Activate your email address
Our confirmation email lands within a minute or two. Click the link to activate. If it hasn't shown up, check spam and promotions before requesting a resend — repeated resends can trip rate limiting and slow things down.
-
Opt into the welcome offer at the cashier
This is the step people skip. Select the welcome bonus in the cashier or promotions section before your first deposit confirms. Deposit without it and we generally can't add it back once you've played a game.
-
Make your first deposit
C$10 minimum on every method. If you want the whole offer, C$375 is the deposit that fills the C$1,500 cap exactly — above that earns nothing extra. Deposit what fits your bankroll, not what fills a cap.
-
Set a deposit limit before you play
One minute in account settings, and the most effective control we offer, because you're choosing it while nothing is at stake. Lower a limit any time; raising one takes effect only after a cooling period.
-
Send your verification documents now
Optional today, and we'd still ask you to do it. Verification runs in the background and takes about 24 hours. Handle it in week one and your first withdrawal goes straight into processing.
Why does the currency box deserve a paragraph?
Because it looks like a formality and isn't. Every figure we publish for Canada — the C$10 minimum deposit, the C$50 minimum withdrawal, the C$1,500 bonus cap, the C$5 max bet during wagering, the C$1,500 daily withdrawal ceiling — is in Canadian dollars. Hold your account in USD and each of those becomes an approximation that drifts with the exchange rate, and you pay a spread going in and again coming out. Interac e-Transfer is a CAD rail by design. Our payments page has the method-by-method detail.
Changing currency afterwards means contacting us, and it normally needs a zero balance. Two minutes of attention now saves all of that.
What will we ask you to verify?
Know Your Customer checks are a condition of our licence, not a preference. The Anjouan framework we operate under carries explicit anti-money-laundering and identity obligations, so every player goes through this once.
| Document | What counts | Why it usually bounces |
|---|---|---|
| Photo ID | Passport, provincial driving licence, or provincial photo ID card | Cropped corners, glare across the photo, or an expired document |
| Proof of address | Utility bill, bank statement or government letter dated within three months | Too old, or an address that doesn't match your account |
| Payment method | Card photo with the middle digits covered, or a bank or wallet screenshot | The name on the method isn't the account holder's |
Four habits prevent almost every rejection: photograph documents flat on a plain surface in daylight, include all four corners, send colour rather than black and white, and use the original photo instead of a screenshot of one. A clean upload usually clears in about 24 hours.
How do you claim the welcome offer properly?
The offer is 400% of your first deposit up to C$1,500 in bonus funds, plus 240 free spins at C$0.20 each. One per player, household and IP address, first qualifying deposit only, opted into before that deposit confirms.
| You deposit | We add | You start with |
|---|---|---|
| C$10 | C$40 | C$50 — our minimum qualifying deposit |
| C$100 | C$400 | C$500 |
| C$375 | C$1,500 | C$1,875 — the cap, exactly |
| C$500 | C$1,500 | C$2,000 — C$125 earned no extra bonus |
Bonus funds carry 25–35× wagering depending on the terms live when you claim, with a C$5 maximum bet while any wagering is outstanding and a 20-day expiry from credit. Slots contribute in full; tables and live dealer contribute at a heavily reduced rate or not at all. Our welcome bonus page works the arithmetic through in full, including the roughly C$450 a C$1,500 bonus is realistically worth after wagering. Once it's cleared, our promotions page covers what runs next.
Why would we turn a registration down?
Four reasons cover nearly all of them.
| Cause | What's happening | Your next step |
|---|---|---|
| You're in Ontario | We block Ontario IP addresses and postal codes, having no iGO registration | Use an AGCO-registered operator; there's no workaround |
| An account already exists | One account per person, household and IP address is a hard rule | Ask us to recover the old account rather than opening a new one |
| Details fail validation | Usually formatting — a postal code without its space, or a date in the wrong order | Re-enter carefully before assuming you're blocked |
| A self-exclusion is on file | Self-exclusion blocks new registrations for its full term, deliberately | Wait it out; we can confirm it without disclosing anything else |
If your registration goes through and a later sign-in doesn't, that's a different problem — our login page covers the eight causes and their fixes.
Set your limits on day one
Deposit limits, loss limits, session timers and reality checks are live in your account from the moment it opens. Setting them before your first session, while there's no result to react to, is the difference between a limit that works and one you reach for too late. Our responsible gambling page explains each tool and lists free, confidential helplines in every province and territory.
Registration questions
How long does it take to open an Oxibet account?
About five minutes for the form, plus a minute or two for our confirmation email. You can deposit and play as soon as that email is verified. Identity verification is separate and only compulsory before your first withdrawal, though we'd rather you handled it in your first day or two.
Which currency should I pick?
CAD, unless you have a specific reason not to. Every limit and bonus figure we publish for Canada is in Canadian dollars, Interac e-Transfer runs on a CAD rail, and a CAD account avoids a conversion spread on every deposit and withdrawal. Changing later means a support ticket and usually a zero balance.
Do I have to upload ID to register?
No. Registration only needs your details. Identity verification is a separate step that becomes compulsory before your first withdrawal. Doing it early is still the better move: it takes us about 24 hours, so clearing it in week one means a withdrawal request later goes straight into processing rather than waiting on documents.
What if I forget to opt into the welcome bonus?
Start a live chat immediately, and before you play anything. We can sometimes apply the bonus to a deposit that has only just processed, but it isn't guaranteed, and any gameplay on the account rules it out. The dependable route is selecting the offer in the cashier before that first deposit confirms.
Can I open a second account?
No. One account per person, household and IP address. We close duplicates when we find them and forfeit any bonus-derived winnings on them. If you've lost access to an existing account, contact us to recover it rather than registering again — that route keeps your balance and your loyalty points intact.
Can I deposit with someone else's card?
No. Like every licensed operator, we require the payment method to belong to the account holder. Third-party deposits are rejected, and a name mismatch found during verification holds up withdrawals until it's resolved. The card, bank account or wallet must be in the same name as the account.
Do I need a separate account for the sportsbook?
No. One registration covers casino and sportsbook on a single balance and a single sign-in. Keep one thing in mind: the welcome offer is a casino bonus, so sports bets don't contribute toward its wagering and bonus funds can't be staked on sport while wagering is outstanding.
