DraftKings has an Alberta registration for Crown DK CAN Ltd. in the class iGaming - Operator. Ontario has a separate record involving the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario and iGaming Ontario, with Crown DK CAN Ltd. as the operator. These public register records were checked on October 12, 2026.

DraftKings records by province

Alberta and Ontario must be read separately because each province has its own record and regulatory arrangement. The Alberta record identifies the registrant and class directly. The Ontario record identifies the regulator and operator.

Product	Legal entity	Register field and value	Status	Scope
iGaming - Operator	Crown DK CAN Ltd.	Class: iGaming - Operator; Registrant: Crown DK CAN Ltd.	AGLC registration	Alberta
	Crown DK CAN Ltd.	Regulator: AGCO with iGaming Ontario	—	Ontario

The Alberta entry is an AGLC registration, not a Canada-wide licence. The Ontario record relates to the AGCO and iGaming Ontario, with Crown DK CAN Ltd. named as the operator.

Match the domain and company

For Ontario, the public record names draftkings.com as the official website. The same Ontario record names Crown DK CAN Ltd. as the operator. This gives you two details to compare: the domain shown in the brand experience and the legal entity attached to the provincial record.

Domain: draftkings.com is the official website named for Ontario.
Company: Crown DK CAN Ltd. is the operator named for Ontario and the registrant in the Alberta AGLC entry.
Province: Alberta and Ontario records remain separate, even though they name the same company.

Use the province shown beside the record, then compare the product or class named there with the service you intend to use.

If the name or domain differs

A different company name or domain deserves a fresh comparison before you rely on the record. Start with the exact details displayed by the brand. Then match those details against the relevant provincial entry, keeping Alberta’s AGLC class apart from Ontario’s AGCO and iGaming Ontario reference.

1
Record the exact company name and domain shown by DraftKings.
2
Compare the company name with Crown DK CAN Ltd., the operator named in the Ontario record and registrant in the Alberta entry.
3
Match the province: use the Alberta record for Alberta and the AGCO with iGaming Ontario record for Ontario.
4
Compare the service details with the product or class stated in the applicable record, without treating one province’s entry as coverage for Canada.

If the details do not match, do not substitute another province’s record. Recheck the entity, domain, province and register field together. The useful result is the record that matches the province and company details you are examining.
