Four checks before you register
- Read the domain in the terms. The first clause of most terms names the website, for example "www.spinjo.com". The address bar should match it.
- Look the domain up in the register. The Anjouan and Curaçao registers list the domains each licence covers. Tobique's list does not show domains, so there the terms are the only link. Our licence guide shows where each register is.
- Click the licence seal. It should open a page on the regulator's site that names the same company and domain.
- Do not trust the search result title. "Official site" in a title is written by whoever runs the page.
What we found
Searches on Google from Canada (gl=ca), November 2026. A lookalike here means a domain using the brand's name that is not where the casino publishes its terms and is not in its register record. We have not checked who runs these sites, so we do not call them scams; we only say they are not the casino's own.

4 casinos with lookalikes, 4 with separate provincial sites. Results change from week to week; a site missing from this table may simply be new.
Why it matters
The bonus on a lookalike is often bigger than the casino's own. lucky-vibe.ca and reviews quoting it advertise "$5,000 + 300 free spins"; LuckyVibe's own bonus terms give 100% up to C$1,000 and 100 free spins. If the site is not the casino's, its terms, licence and complaint route do not apply to you, and your ID documents end up with an unknown party.
The provincial sites are a different case. jackpotcity.ca, spincasino.ca, rubyfortune.ca and ab.stake.ca are real sites of those brands for Ontario or Alberta players. Reviews often mix them up with the .com versions, so a game count, bonus or withdrawal limit you read may belong to the other site. Our casino pages always say which site they describe.
Questions
Is the first Google result always the casino's real site?
No. When we searched for "lucky vibe casino" from Canada, the first result was lucky-vibe.ca with the title "Official Casino Site". LuckyVibe's own terms name luckyvibe.com, and lucky-vibe.ca is not in the licence register's domain list.
Is a .ca version of a casino a fake?
Not always. Jackpot City, Spin Casino, Ruby Fortune and Stake run separate sites for Ontario or Alberta under different terms. They are real, but they are different sites from the .com versions we describe, with different bonuses and rules.
What is a mirror domain?
A second address for the same casino, often with a number in it, used when the main domain is blocked. Wazamba.com redirected us to wazamba-0225.com. A mirror is only covered by the licence if the register or the casino's terms list it.
What should I do if I signed up on a lookalike site?
Stop depositing and do not upload ID documents. Contact the casino through the domain named in its terms and ask whether the site belongs to it. If you paid money, contact your bank or payment provider as soon as possible.
