About 24Strong

An independent review site for Canadian players who want to know which Interac casinos actually pay out fast — not which ones pay the largest affiliate commission.

Who we are

24Strong is a small, Canadian-focused editorial team. We test online casinos that accept Interac and rank them based on what actually matters to Canadian players: how fast the deposit clears, how fast the withdrawal lands, and whether the bonus terms hold up after you read the fine print. We aren’t owned by a casino group, we aren’t a comparison-aggregator dressed up as editorial, and we aren’t writing from a template. Every casino in our toplist has been deposit-tested by a member of our team with our own money.

The site was founded in 2024 to fill what we saw as a gap in Canadian iGaming coverage: most of the “top Interac casinos” pages floating around the SERP are either outdated, written by SEO contractors with no banking-product experience, or quietly ordered by commission rate. We started 24Strong because we wanted a guide we’d trust ourselves.

How we work

Every casino on this site has been through three independent checks before it makes our toplist:

  1. Licensing verification. We confirm the operator’s regulatory licence (Kahnawake, MGA, UKGC, Curaçao, or iGaming Ontario / AGCO) directly with the regulator’s public register. If a casino claims a licence we can’t verify, it doesn’t run.
  2. Real-money Interac deposit and withdrawal test. Our senior reviewer, Daniel Beaulieu, deposits and withdraws with his own funds. Deposits at three sizes ($20, $100, $500). Withdrawals through RBC, TD, and Scotiabank, staggered across banking-hour and after-hour requests to capture variance.
  3. Bonus and terms read-through. We read every bonus T&C in full, including the excluded games list, the wagering contribution rates, and (critically) whether Interac deposits qualify for the welcome match. Bonuses with traps go in the notes; bonuses with disqualifying terms cost the casino position.

The full criteria, weighting, and conflict disclosures are published on the methodology page.

How we’re funded

We accept affiliate commission from the casinos we link to. This means that when a reader clicks through one of our affiliate links and signs up at an operator, that operator pays 24Strong a commission. Affiliate funding is the standard model for Canadian iGaming review sites and it is how 24Strong covers staff, hosting, deposit-test funds, and the ongoing cost of the casinos we evaluate.

The non-negotiable: commission rate does not influence ranking. Daniel sets the order based on his test scores; the commercial team has no editorial input. If a casino offers us a higher commission to move up the list, the answer is no — that has happened, and it will happen again. If you ever see a ranking that looks like it was bought, please flag it via the contact route below; we’ll publish the dispute and the resolution.

Editorial team

24Strong is led day-to-day by Daniel Beaulieu, who has covered Canadian retail payments and the iGaming industry since 2013. Daniel deposits and withdraws on every site we rank, writes the review copy, and signs off on every change to the homepage toplist. Read his full bio and credentials on the author page.

The site also benefits from occasional input from external contributors on niche topics (Quebec-specific licensing, French-language player support, mobile-first casino product reviews). Where a contributor has written or substantially edited a section, they’re credited in line on the relevant article.

Responsible gambling commitment

Online casino games are entertainment. They are not an income strategy, an investment, or a way out of financial trouble. Every casino we rank is required to offer deposit limits, loss limits, session timers, and self-exclusion as a baseline; we score sites that go beyond the minimum higher. If you’d like to talk to someone, the resources we trust are listed on our Responsible Gaming page — ConnexOntario (1-866-531-2600), Gamblers Anonymous Canada, and the Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Addiction (CCSA) are good starting points.

The age of legal online gambling in Canada is 18 or 19 depending on the province. We don’t market to players below the legal age, and we link to self-exclusion tools wherever the operator provides them.

Contact us

For editorial corrections, factual disputes, business enquiries, or compliance questions, please email editorial[at]24strong.ca with a clear subject line. We aim to respond to factual-correction requests within 48 hours during weekdays.

For takedown or legal requests (DMCA, privacy, defamation, or rights matters), please email legal[at]24strong.ca and include the URL, the specific text or image at issue, and the legal basis for the request. We log every request and respond within five business days.

For player complaints about a casino we list, we will pass your case to the operator’s player-protection team and follow up with the regulator named on their licence if necessary. We can’t act as an arbitrator, but we can amplify your case to people who can.

Corrections policy

If we publish something that turns out to be wrong, we fix it visibly. Material factual corrections are flagged at the top of the page where they were made, with the date of the correction and a short note explaining what changed. We don’t ghost-edit; we don’t quietly rewrite history. The corrections log lives below this paragraph as we accumulate it.

Current corrections log: no published corrections to date (page first published April 2, 2026; last reviewed May 26, 2026).
