Apps you can install in Alberta
The province legislated toward a private market. Until that is actually live, what you install is the crown app or something operating on an international licence.
WHAT IS ON THE SHELF HERE
Counted as the operators that take accounts outside Ontario: the rest-of-Canada rooms and the internationally licensed ones. Brands that only run inside the Ontario market, the provincial products among them, are counted on the Ontario page instead. The same rule runs on all 13 of these pages.
THE LEGAL LINE, ONCE
Regulated by Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis. The provincial option is PlayAlberta.ca. Run by the AGLC. Alberta legislated toward a private-operator market; check whether that has actually opened before assuming an app is licensed here. The age here is 18.
Two different lists, depending on the week
Alberta has been moving toward a private operator market for a while. The practical advice is to check whether that has actually opened before assuming an app is licensed here rather than serving you from offshore.
The distinction matters mostly at complaint time. A domestic regulator reads a complaint in weeks; an international one is a much longer road.
Eighteen, and the store knows
Alberta is one of three places in Canada where the age is eighteen rather than nineteen. Apps enforce it at registration and again at verification, and the second one is where a mismatch locks a balance.
Coverage is good along the corridor between Calgary and Edmonton and thins out fast on the secondary highways, which is worth knowing if your install plan is to download something in a car park.
WHICH OF THESE TAKE A SPORTS BET
6 of the 26 operators an account in Alberta can reach run a sportsbook alongside the casino, 5 of them inside an app. Same availability rule as the rest of this page, so treat the number as a floor: a book that serves the province and is not on this file is not counted here either.

What a download costs out here
We treat LTE, Calgary ring road as typical for this region. On that connection a 100 MB package takes about 38 seconds, the 115 MB board median takes roughly 44, and the heaviest builds on this board run several times longer again.
That is the argument for the small packages, and it is the reason install size sits on the front of every teardown rather than buried in a specification list.
Fewest taps to your money, available here
The install button on these rows pays Loon Picks a commission. The sort is taps to a submitted withdrawal, and no arrangement changes a tap count.
Sorted on taps from a lobby to a submitted withdrawal, which is the only ranking this site does on a province page. The full board is at app teardowns.
