Betfair No Longer Accepting Canadian Customers
Folks living in Canada can no longer bet with Betfair.com, the world’s largest wagering exchange.
The company alerted its customers this week following a merger with Irish bookmaker Paddy Power, which had previously severed ties to Canada.
We are sorry to inform you that as of 14th January 2016, Betfair's products will no longer be available to residents of Canada.
On 14th January 2016 Canadian residents will no longer be able to place bets and Betfair shall close it's website. All outstanding Sportsbook bets will be cancelled, you will no longer be able to place new exchange bets and all gaming products will be blocked. Please note that all outstanding Exchange bets will remain in place until 14th January 2016, so please ensure you manage any positions you have open in advance of this date.
Please also ensure you withdraw any funds you have in advance of 14th January 2016. You will only be able to withdraw any winnings, or leftover funds after 14th January by contacting our helpdesk.
Thanks,
Betfair
