Policy Amendment – Table Game Progressive Jackpots

Casino Bulletin

January 24, 2023

This bulletin is to advise all casino facility licensees and registered gaming workers of IMPORTANT AMENDMENTS to the Casino Terms & Conditions and Operating Guidelines(CTCOG). The following policy is effective January 24, 2023.

  • AGLC has identified the need to clarify the intent of policy related to table game progressive jackpots. As a result, the following policy amendments have been made to Sections 1.1 and 9.17 of the CTCOG:
    • 1.1.1 kk): Defining “table game progressive jackpots” reduces the risk of misinterpretation and ensures casino facility licensees understand the premise of the prize structure.
    • 9.17.2 b): A minor terminology amendment clarifies that table game progressive jackpots (both electronic and manual) can be won based on other qualifying criteria, not necessarily just a qualifying hand.
    • 9.17.2 d): A policy amendment clarifies that casino facility licensees cannot revoke seeded funds from any pool included in a progressive jackpot, whether it is the main pool or additional reserve pools.

The amended CTCOG may be accessed on AGLC’s website at aglc.ca. Additional information regarding AGLC’s commitment to a modern regulatory environment that supports consumer choice, innovation and economic growth can be found on AGLC’s website at aglc.ca/modernization.

Please familiarize yourself with the amended policies, update your CTCOG as required and ensure all affected staff are notified of the new requirements.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact AGLC’s Regulatory Division or call AGLC Hotline at 1-800-561-4415.
