Experts project that the gambling market across Canada will soon grow to generate $25 billion<\/a> worth of revenue annually. These same knowledgeable professionals believe that 80% of this money will come from online sports betting. Since using online casino websites is legal in all 10 Canadian provinces, this seems a likely outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re passionate about sports and business, becoming a Canadian bookie might be a good choice for you. It’s fun, lucrative, and lets you thrive in a fast-growing market. Read on to learn how you can set up a successful sportsbook and start reeling in both bettors and fast cash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Understand Canadian Regulations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As of August 27th, 2021, single-game sports betting is officially legal throughout the whole of Canada. Private sportsbooks are expected to grow in the Canadian online sports betting market throughout 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s critical that you’re clear on the definition of single-game sports betting<\/a> and don’t cross the line into multi-game betting. If you do, you will be subject to fines from the Canadian government and may be forced to shut down your sportsbook. Luckily, since single-game sports betting is by far the most popular form of sports betting, you likely have nothing to worry about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taxation is another important thing to understand prior to opening a sportsbook. Private sportsbooks need to pay a flat 20% tax rate. This may sound high, but US bookies need to pay 51% in some situations!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Create Business Goals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At its core, your bookie business is just that- a business. It’s important that you set some business goals before moving forward and actually opening your sportsbook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Determine how much you want to make within your first business quarter. You can come up with this number by looking into what other new bookies<\/a> are making. Talk with them on forums, read posts about it online, and consider the ways that your sportsbook can rake in as much cash as them (or more)!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of considering how much money you want to make, you can consider the number of bettors that you want to sign on. This is easier to project than actual funds since you don’t know how much people are going to bet. Deciding on a number of players is a good initial goal- you can decide how much you want to make when you have more information about specific betting numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember that you can adapt plans as you go along. You’ll have a better idea of what to do after seeing how your sportsbook runs after a few weeks. This will let you use concrete information to make more goals in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regardless of what you do, come up with<\/a> a simple vision and a more specific mission statement. This will give you something to work towards both in the long-term and the short-term. Every decision that you make can be in an effort to achieve your vision and mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have a Concrete Plan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Okay, so you now have goals, a vision, and a mission. It’s now time to think about concrete, actionable items that will help you meet these goals. Ask yourself:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
