You can deposit at OLG from C$15 using Visa Debit, Debit Mastercard, INTERAC e-Transfer, Visa, Mastercard, American Express or Apple Pay. Your OLG balance is held in CAD, so choose a method you can use in that currency and check possible credit card fees before proceeding.


Which OLG deposit method can you use?

OLG offers several ways to fund an account, while withdrawals use electronic bank transfer. That gives you more choice when depositing than when withdrawing. You can compare the available deposit methods in the table, then see the broader OLG payment methods guide or OLG review.

What should you check before depositing?

Check your credit card issuer's fees before depositing, because an issuer may treat funding a Player Account as a cash advance and charge a fee for each credit card transaction. Any cash advance fee or other fee connected with your chosen payment method is your responsibility, so credit card funding is less suitable if you want to avoid that possible cost.

  1. Choose an accepted deposit method from the table.
  2. Check that the amount is at least C$15.
  3. Check whether your payment method could create a fee, especially if you use a credit card.
  4. On OLG, proceed with the chosen method and amount. For safer play, see the guide to limits, breaks and help to stop.
  • Minimum: Your deposit must meet the C$15 minimum shown above.
  • Possible fee: A credit card issuer may apply a cash advance fee, and payment-method fees are your responsibility.

Who can you contact about a deposit?

In Ontario, support is available through Chat and Call. For online gaming, you can use LiveChat 24/7; if you want French chat services, the hours are Weekdays 8 AM to 4 PM (ET). Phone hours run from 8 AM to Midnight. Use the channel and language schedule that fits your situation.

If a transfer is not credited, contact an available Ontario Chat or Call channel rather than assuming a processing time.
