BetGuard is a province-wide self-exclusion program available to eligible players in Ontario. It allows you to voluntarily block access to all participating regulated online gambling sites through a single enrolment process.
BetGuard is designed to support players who wish to take a break from gambling or stop gambling altogether.

What is the difference between DAZN BetSelf-Exclusion and BetGuard?
Both options help you take a break from gambling, but they cover different scopes. Self-Exclusion restricts access to your DAZN BET account only. During the exclusion period, you will not be able to log in or gamble with us.
BetGuard is a province-wide self-exclusion program that can restrict access to multiple participating regulated gambling operators within your province, providing broader protection than a site-specific exclusion
