How to Use PROLINE In‑Store: A Simple, Step‑by‑Step Guide for Ontario

If you like the feel of a paper ticket and a quick chat with your retailer, PROLINE in‑store is built for you. Here’s exactly how to use it—from picking your games to cashing out—plus a pro tip to skip the line.

What is PROLINE In‑Store?

PROLINE in‑store is Ontario’s retail sports betting product offered by OLG at participating retailers. You mark your picks on a selection slip (or generate a barcode on your phone), hand it to the clerk, pay, and receive a printed ticket. No online account is required to play in‑store, and winnings under $1,000 can usually be collected the same day at a retailer.

Before You Go: Know the Basics

• You must be 19+ and physically in Ontario to place a bet.
• Bet types: Single bets and parlays across Moneyline (ML), Point Spread (PS), and Over/Under (OU). Cross‑sport parlays are allowed.
• Wager limits: $1 minimum up to $100 maximum per bet.
• Payouts: Prizes under $1,000 are typically paid at retailers shortly after the last event ends, during store hours.

Step 1 — Choose Your Events

In store, you’ll use a paper selection slip. Events are numbered; you indicate the event number by marking the corresponding boxes (for example, to pick Event #215, mark 200 + 10 + 5).

Pro move: Build your bet ahead of time on PROLINE.ca or the PROLINE app using the “IN‑STORE” option, then save a barcode to your phone. At the counter, the clerk scans it and prints your ticket—no manual marking needed.

Step 2 — Pick Your Market for Each Event

For every event you select, choose one market:

• ML (Moneyline): Pick the winner.
• PS (Point Spread): Pick a team to cover the spread.
• OU (Over/Under): Pick whether the total goes over or under the line.

You can mix sports and markets on the same slip (cross‑sport wagering).

Step 3 — Mark Your Predicted Outcomes

Clearly mark the outcome for each event (e.g., Team 1 or Team 2, Over or Under). Double‑check that each pick lines up with the correct event number and market.

Step 4 — Set Your Wager and Get Your Ticket

• Enter your stake per bet ($1–$100).
• Hand the completed slip (or your saved barcode) to the retailer and pay the total.
• You’ll receive a printed ticket—keep it safe; it’s required to claim winnings.

Quick odds math: To estimate potential payout, multiply the odds of each selected outcome, then multiply by your wager.

After the Game: Checking Results and Cashing Out

You have three easy ways to check results:

• Scan your ticket’s barcode at a participating retailer’s ticket checker.
• Ask a retailer to scan it on the lottery terminal.
• Scan it in the PROLINE app.

Cashing out:

• Under $1,000: Collect at a participating OLG retailer after the last event on your ticket (subject to store hours).
• $1,000 and over: Follow OLG’s claims process for larger prizes.

Pro Tips for a Smoother In‑Store Experience

• Use the app/website barcode: Build your betslip at home, save the barcode, and scan in‑store to avoid marking errors and save time.
• Bring ID: Retailers may ask for ID to confirm you’re 19+.
• Know store hours: Same‑day payout depends on retailer hours and the under‑$1,000 cash limit.
• Play smart: Set a budget, know the game rules, and remember that no bet is guaranteed.

That’s it—pick your games, mark your markets (or scan your barcode), place your wager, and enjoy the game with a ticket in hand.
