Ontario has seen a number of sports betting sites enter the Ontario betting scene over the past year. Gambling revenue in Ontario has steadily grown, according to iGaming Ontario, so it may come as a surprise to some to see a sportsbook close its Ontario website. This is the situation for iGaming operator Coolbet. 

Coolbet announced it will no longer offer its services to people in Ontario after April 3, the sportsbook revealed on Wednesday. On April 3, Coolbet plans to shut down its website and mobile app. Coolbet will undergo a transition process before its services are shut down. The sportsbook has urged its players to withdraw their money as soon as possible.
