New 'E supplier' class created for small online gaming distributors, with $5,000 application fee

B.C. Reg. 209/2025 – Gaming Control Regulation, effective April 13, 2026 — under the Gaming Control Act

Plain-language summary · AI-assisted · not legal advice

The Gaming Control Regulation has been amended to insert a new class of registered gaming services provider called the 'E supplier class.' This class covers providers authorized to distribute gaming supplies to the lottery corporation for use in online gaming schemes where projected gross annual revenue from that distribution is less than $1 million. The previously existing 'E supplier' class has been renamed 'F supplier' throughout the regulation. A new application fee of $5,000 applies to the new E supplier class, listed in the fee table alongside existing classes. Separately, the existing D supplier class threshold has been clarified to cover revenues of $1 million or more but less than $5 million. Businesses or individuals distributing gaming supplies for online gaming schemes should review which supplier class now applies to them and ensure they apply under the correct class and pay the associated fee.
