CoolBet Ontario Review 2024: Register at CoolBet Sportsbook Ontario

CoolBet was one of the first gambling sites to get that all-important licensing and regulation from iGaming Ontario. This makes CoolBet perfectly legal in hosting an online sportsbook and casino in the province. All of which means that you won’t have to risk your online safety at any offshore gambling sites anymore.

Usability, look & feel – Easy to navigate with good features

The look of the CoolBet website is certainly unique. The color combination of grays, blues, oranges and lime greens is boldly unexpected, but it does make the design distinctive.

Thankfully, the CoolBet website is nicely functional and players will find it simple to navigate between the sportsbook and casino. Both of these sections benefit from handy search tools, and the casino area has plenty of filters that’ll help you find your preferred gaming option. All of which made for a fast and stress-free online wagering platform.

All about the CoolBet Ontario app

Unfortunately, there is nothing in the way of a CoolBet Ontario app to report on. This isn’t to say that there won’t be a CoolBet Ontario app being released sooner or later. But for now, if you want to play at CoolBet, you will have to do so via the browser of your computer, smartphone or tablet.

Opening an account at the CoolBet Ontario online casino

We found it fast and simple to register our first CoolBet account. All we had to do was to tap on the green Register button at the top-right of the screen and then fill in a few personal details like our email address and mobile number. The mobile number was used to verify our accounts and once we had proved that we were over 19 years old, we could simply make a deposit in Canadian dollars and start playing. Easy!

You can make deposits from a minimum of $10 at a time at CoolBet. These deposits will be free and they should go through either instantly or take under an hour. The deposit methods include Visa and Mastercard cards, as well as Interac and MuchBetter.

All of the above payment methods can be used for making withdrawals. Again, these withdrawals will be free, but you will have to withdraw a minimum of $20 at a time. CoolBet states that it will take around three hours to process any withdrawal requests. After this, you can look forward to instant withdrawals via MuchBetter and the other payment methods take between one and three banking days for withdrawals.

We found that CoolBet has excellent customer support that can be accessed either via the handy live chat icon, the dedicated email address or the telephone support. CoolBet states that you shouldn’t have to wait longer than 15 seconds in the live chat line and it rarely takes longer than two hours to get an email answered. We decided to try a phone call and found that the customer care was friendly and professional.

It’s also worth noting that there’s a pretty good FAQ on the CoolBet site which is handy as the live chat service is only open between 2am and 7pm, while the phone support only functions between 2am and 5pm.

We’ve already spoken about how CoolBet is licensed and regulated by iGaming Ontario. There are plenty more trust features all over the CoolBet site. These include a Privacy Policy that details how the brand will look after each player’s personal data on the encrypted site.

Plus we liked the fact that CoolBet gave customers access to a good range of responsible gambling tools. These allow people to do things like set their own limits or even try out a self-assessment test to see if their wagering is getting out of hand.

We have to admit that we were a bit disappointed to learn that CoolBet doesn’t have any kind of reward program, in addition to no CoolBet sports Ontario app. Plenty of other Ontario gambling sites have some kind of loyalty scheme. So we’re hoping that CoolBet is planning to implement a reward program as well as a CoolBet Ontario app at some point in the near future.
