Terms & Conditions

Last Updated: May 2024.

Welcome to SpinFin (spin-fin.co). These Terms and Conditions ("Terms," "Agreement") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User," "Player," "You") and SpinFin ("SpinFin," "We," "Us," "Our"). By accessing our website, creating an account, or participating in any gaming activities, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms.

SpinFin provides a premier online gaming platform tailored for the Canadian market, offering a variety of casino games, sports betting, and interactive entertainment. We are committed to maintaining a fair, secure, and transparent environment for all our players from coast to coast.

1. Legal Compliance and Jurisdiction

1.1 Canadian Regulatory Landscape

The legal landscape of online gambling in Canada is governed by both federal law (the Criminal Code) and provincial regulations. By using SpinFin, you acknowledge that you are responsible for complying with the laws of the province or territory in which you reside.

  • Ontario Residents: Players located in Ontario are subject to the regulations set forth by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) and iGaming Ontario. Specific rules regarding bonus visibility and marketing apply to Ontario residents.
  • Other Provinces: For players in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Quebec, the Atlantic provinces, and the Territories, your participation is governed by your local provincial gaming authorities (such as BCLC, AGLC, or Loto-Québec) or the offshore licensing under which SpinFin operates.

1.2 Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Canada. Any legal action or proceeding related to your access to, or use of, the website shall be instituted in a court of competent jurisdiction in Canada.

2. Eligibility and Account Registration

2.1 Age Requirements

To use SpinFin, you must be of legal gambling age in your specific Canadian jurisdiction. In most provinces (including British Columbia, Ontario, and others), the legal age is 19+. In Alberta, Manitoba, and Quebec, the legal age is 18+. It is your responsibility to ensure you meet the minimum age requirement of your province.

2.2 Geographic Restrictions

Our services are intended for residents of Canada. While we strive to be accessible nationwide, certain games or features may be restricted in specific provinces due to local licensing agreements. You must be physically located within a permitted Canadian jurisdiction when placing bets.

2.3 Account Creation

When registering an account, you must provide accurate and complete information, including:

  • Full Legal Name (as it appears on your government-issued ID).
  • Date of Birth.
  • Current Residential Address in Canada.
  • Valid Email Address ([email protected]).
  • Phone Number.

2.4 Single Account Policy

Each player is permitted only one (1) account. The creation of multiple accounts (multi-accounting) to exploit bonuses or bypass limits is strictly prohibited. If we discover a player with multiple accounts, all accounts may be closed immediately, and any winnings or "loonies" in the balance will be forfeited.

3. Verification and KYC (Know Your Customer)

3.1 Verification Process

In compliance with Anti-Money Laundering (AML) laws and Canadian gaming standards, SpinFin requires all users to undergo a verification process. We may request:

  • A copy of a valid government-issued photo ID (Passport, Driver’s License).
  • Proof of residence (Utility bill or bank statement showing your Canadian address).
  • Proof of ownership for payment methods used (e.g, a screenshot of your Interac e-Transfer profile or a redacted credit card statement).

3.2 Withdrawal Verification is mandatory prior to your first withdrawal. Failure to provide requested documentation within 30 days may lead to the suspension of your account and the voiding of any pending "pucks" or winnings.

4. Deposits and Financial Terms

4.1 Currency

All transactions on SpinFin are processed in Canadian Dollars (CAD / CA$). If you deposit in another currency or crypto, the funds will be converted to CAD at the prevailing market rate, which may include a small conversion fee.

4.2 Payment Methods

We offer a variety of payment options trusted by Canadians:

  • Interac e-Transfer: Our most recommended and trusted method for both deposits and withdrawals.
  • Interac Online: Direct bank-to-site transfers.
  • Credit/Debit Cards: Visa and Mastercard.
  • E-wallets: iDebit and InstaDebit (optimized for Canadian bank accounts).
  • Cryptocurrency: Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other supported digital assets.

4.3 Deposit Limits

The minimum deposit is typically CA$20 (four "fivers" or a handful of "toonies"). Maximum deposit limits depend on your verification status and chosen payment method.

4.4 Withdrawals must be sent back to the same method used for the deposit whenever possible. Due to Canadian banking regulations, Interac e-Transfer is the preferred method for fast payouts.

  • Withdrawal requests are processed within 24–72 hours.
  • We reserve the right to charge administrative fees for excessive withdrawal requests or for withdrawing funds that have not been wagered at least once (1x turnover).

5. Bonuses and Promotions

5.1 General Bonus Terms

SpinFin offers various "match bonuses" (often 100% to 200%) and free spins to enhance your play. All bonuses are subject to specific Wagering Requirements (WR).

5.2 Wagering Requirements

Unless otherwise stated, bonuses carry a standard wagering requirement of 30x to 40x the bonus amount. For example, if you receive a CA100bonuswitha35xrequirement,youmustplacebetstotalingCA3,500 before the bonus funds and associated winnings can be withdrawn as cash.

5.3 Game Weighting

Not all games contribute equally toward wagering requirements:

  • Slots: 100% (some excluded titles apply).
  • Table Games: 10%–20%.
  • Video Poker: 5%.
  • Live Casino: 0%–10% (unless a specific Live Bonus is active).

5.4 Maximum Bet

While a bonus is active, the maximum bet permitted is CA$5 (one "fiver") per spin or "puck" drop. Exceeding this limit may result in the forfeiture of the bonus and all accumulated winnings.

5.5 Ontario Specifics

For our players in Ontario, please note that in accordance with AGCO standards, bonus marketing is restricted on public-facing pages. You must opt-in via your account dashboard to view and receive specific promotional offers.

6. Responsible Gambling

6.1 Our Commitment

SpinFin promotes gambling as a form of entertainment, not a way to make money. We provide tools to help you stay in control of your "loonies" and "toonies."

For high-volume players, we may require a "Source of Wealth" declaration and supporting documentation to ensure the funds used for gambling are from legitimate sources.

8. Rules of Play and Fair Gaming

8.1 Game Fairness

All games on SpinFin are powered by certified Random Number Generators (RNG) to ensure that every spin, card deal, or "puck" slide is completely random and fair. We only partner with reputable software providers who undergo regular audits.

8.2 Prohibited Practices

The following activities are strictly prohibited and will result in account closure:

  • Using automated bots or software to place bets.
  • Collusion with other players.
  • Exploiting software glitches or "bugs."
  • "Bonus Abusing" by strategically placing low-risk bets to clear wagering.

8.3 Errors and Omissions

In the event of a technical error (e.g, a game "hanging" or a miscalculated payout), SpinFin reserves the right to void any wagers affected by the error. We will attempt to restore your balance to the state it was in prior to the error.
