The Winner's Edge card
Winner's Edge is AGLC's province-wide loyalty program, used at many Alberta casinos, and Great Northern Casino's site links to it. The card is picked up at Guest Services with government ID, and members must be 18 or older. Members can set spending and time limits and alerts with the GameSense My Activity and Budgeting Tools, at the Winner's Edge kiosk in any Alberta casino or online. People enrolled in self-exclusion cannot hold a card. The casino's "VIP CLUB" is an email newsletter, not a players club.

Online play in Alberta
Alberta's regulated online gaming market launched on July 13, 2026. The Alberta iGaming Corporation (AiGC) manages it, and AGLC regulates it. To operate legally, an operator needs AGLC registration and an operating agreement with AiGC. Play Alberta (PlayAlberta.ca) is the province's own site, run by AGLC. Any operator can be checked in AiGC's directory at abigaming.ca, and one missing from it is not regulated.
The legal gambling age in Alberta is 18. Paid links on the Record's home page are marked Ad. They lead to a private online casino partner, not to Play Alberta, and the Record earns a commission. The partner can change.
