Getting Started

SocialRoot is Canada's leading social casino platform where you can play authentic casino games without any real money involved. Think of it as a video game version of a casino – all the excitement and fun, but with zero financial risk.

Here's how it works:

  • You play with virtual coins that have no real money value
  • You can't deposit real money or cash out winnings
  • New players get 50,000 free coins to start
  • You earn more free coins through daily bonuses, achievements, and gameplay
  • It's 100% legal across Canada because it's entertainment, not gambling

We offer over 200 games including slots, blackjack, roulette, video poker, and more. Everything runs in your web browser – no downloads needed!

Yes! SocialRoot is 100% legal in every Canadian province and territory, including:

  • Ontario
  • Quebec
  • British Columbia
  • Alberta
  • Manitoba
  • Saskatchewan
  • Nova Scotia
  • New Brunswick
  • Newfoundland and Labrador
  • Prince Edward Island
  • Northwest Territories
  • Yukon
  • Nunavut

We're legal because we're not a gambling site. Since you can't win or lose real money, we're classified as an entertainment/gaming platform, similar to mobile games like Candy Crush or Angry Birds.

We comply with all Canadian federal and provincial regulations, maintain proper business licenses, and work with legal teams in each province to ensure full compliance. You must be 19+ to play (18+ in Alberta, Manitoba, and Quebec).

Creating an account takes less than 60 seconds! Here's how:

  1. Click the "Sign Up" button in the top right corner of any page
  2. Choose your sign-up method:
    • Email address (most common)
    • Google account (fastest)
    • Facebook account
    • Apple ID (on supported devices)
  3. If using email, create a password (at least 8 characters)
  4. Enter your date of birth to confirm you're 19+
  5. Choose your province (for proper regulatory compliance)
  6. Accept the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy
  7. Click "Create Account"

That's it! You'll instantly receive 50,000 free coins and can start playing immediately. We'll send a verification email, but you don't need to verify to start playing.

Pro tip: Use a real email address so you can recover your account if you forget your password. We never spam – you'll only get important account updates and optional promotional emails (which you can unsubscribe from).

No downloads required! SocialRoot runs entirely in your web browser using HTML5 technology. This means:

  • Works on any device with a modern web browser
  • No storage space needed on your device
  • Always playing the latest version (no updates needed)
  • Your progress saves automatically to the cloud
  • Switch between devices seamlessly

Supported browsers:

  • Chrome (recommended) - version 80 or newer
  • Safari - version 13 or newer
  • Firefox - version 75 or newer
  • Edge - version 80 or newer
  • Opera - version 67 or newer

For the best experience, we recommend using Chrome on desktop or Safari on iOS devices. Make sure JavaScript is enabled and you have a stable internet connection (at least 1 Mbps).

Account & Coins

No, you cannot win or lose real money on SocialRoot. This is very important to understand:

  • Virtual coins have NO cash value
  • Coins cannot be exchanged for money, prizes, or anything of value
  • You cannot "cash out" your coin balance
  • We do not offer any real money gambling
  • There are no hidden ways to convert coins to money

This is what makes SocialRoot legal and safe. You're playing for entertainment only, just like any other video game. The coins are simply a way to keep score and extend your playtime.

  • Contact support if still having issues

Security tip: Choose a password you haven't used elsewhere. We recommend using a combination of letters, numbers, and symbols. Consider using a password manager to keep track of your login.

No, each person is allowed only ONE account. Here's why:

  • It ensures fair play for all users
  • Prevents abuse of welcome bonuses and promotions
  • Keeps tournaments and leaderboards fair
  • Helps us maintain account security
  • Required for regulatory compliance

What happens if you create multiple accounts?

  • Duplicate accounts will be closed
  • Coin balances won't be transferred
  • You may lose access to all accounts
  • Tournament winnings may be forfeited

Legitimate reasons for a new account:

  • Lost access to your email address
  • Account was hacked or compromised
  • Technical issues preventing access

If you need a new account for legitimate reasons, contact support first. We can often recover your original account or transfer your progress.

Good news – your coins NEVER expire! Here's our inactivity policy:

Your coin balance:

Remains exactly the same whether you're gone for a day, month, or year. Log back in anytime and pick up right where you left off.

Daily login streak:

Resets to Day 1 if you miss a day, but you can start building it up again immediately.

Account status:

  • 0-6 months inactive: No changes
  • 6-12 months: We'll send a "we miss you" email with bonus coins
  • 12+ months: Account remains active, may need to reset password
  • We NEVER delete accounts for inactivity

Welcome back bonuses:

Players returning after 30+ days often receive special "welcome back" bonuses of 5,000-25,000 coins!

Pro tip: Even if you can't play, try to log in once a week to collect your daily bonus. It only takes 10 seconds and keeps your coin balance growing!

Games & Gameplay

Yes, all our games are 100% fair and regularly tested! Here's how we ensure fairness:

eCOGRA Certification

We're certified by eCOGRA (eCommerce Online Gaming Regulation and Assurance), the same organization that certifies major online casinos. They test our games monthly to ensure:

  • Random Number Generators (RNG) work correctly
  • Advertised RTPs match actual returns
  • Games can't be manipulated
  • Results are truly random

Published RTPs

Every game shows its Return to Player (RTP) percentage. For example:

  • Mega Fortune Dreams: 96.4% RTP
  • Blackjack (with basic strategy): 99.5% RTP
  • European Roulette: 97.3% RTP

This means over millions of spins/hands, the game returns that percentage of coins wagered.

Same Odds for Everyone

Your coin balance, play history, or account status NEVER affects game odds. A player with 100 coins has the exact same chance of winning as someone with 10 million coins.

Transparency Reports

We publish monthly reports showing:

  • Total coins wagered vs. paid out
  • Biggest wins of the month
  • Actual RTP vs. theoretical RTP
  • Number of jackpots hit

Remember: Even with fair games, the house always has a small edge (that's how casinos work). But since you're playing with free coins, you can enjoy the games without worrying about losing money!

We offer both regular (free) games and premium games. Here's the breakdown:

Regular Games (150+)

  • ✓ Free for all players
  • ✓ Full game features
  • ✓ Normal RTPs (94-97%)
  • ✓ Standard graphics
  • ✓ Regular bonus features
  • ✓ Tournament eligible

Premium Games (50+)

  • ★ Premium members only
  • ★ Enhanced features
  • ★ Higher RTPs (96-98%)
  • ★ 4K graphics
  • ★ Exclusive bonus rounds
  • ★ Bigger max wins

Premium Membership Benefits:

  • Access to all 50+ premium games
  • Double daily login bonus
  • No ads between games
  • Priority customer support
  • Exclusive tournaments
  • Monthly bonus of 100,000 coins

Cost: $9.99/month or $79.99/year (save 33%)

Note: Premium membership is completely optional. You can enjoy SocialRoot forever without paying anything. Premium just adds extra features for players who want the ultimate experience.

Tournaments are competitive events where players compete for huge coin prizes! Here's everything you need to know:

Types of Tournaments

  • Daily Tournaments: Run every 24 hours, 100-500 players
  • Weekend Warriors: Friday-Sunday, bigger prizes
  • Slot Specific: Play designated slot games only
  • All Games: Any game counts toward your score
  • Buy-in Events: Cost coins to enter, massive prizes
  • Freerolls: Free entry, smaller prizes

How Scoring Works

Most tournaments use one of these formats:

  • Total Win: Highest total coins won
  • Win Multiplier: Biggest win relative to bet
  • Points System: Earn points for different achievements
  • Survival: Last player with coins wins

Prize Distribution (typical daily tournament)

  • 1st Place: 50,000 coins
  • 2nd Place: 30,000 coins
  • 3rd Place: 20,000 coins
  • 4th-10th: 10,000 coins
  • 11th-25th: 5,000 coins
  • 26th-50th: 2,500 coins

Tournament Strategy Tips

  • Check the scoring format before playing
  • For multiplier tournaments, vary your bet sizes
  • Play consistently throughout the tournament period
  • Monitor the leaderboard to adjust strategy
  • Save coins for final push in last hour

Pro tip: Start with freeroll tournaments to learn the format before entering buy-in events. Even finishing in the top 50 usually returns more than your entry fee!

RTP stands for "Return to Player" – it's the theoretical percentage of all wagered coins that a game pays back to players over time.

Example: A slot with 96% RTP means:

  • For every 100 coins wagered, it returns 96 coins on average
  • The house edge is 4% (100% - 96%)
  • Over millions of spins, total payouts equal 96% of total bets

Important things to understand:

  • It's theoretical: Based on millions of plays. Your session might be way above or below this.
  • Not a guarantee: You could lose 1,000 coins or win 10,000 coins in any session.
  • Long-term average: The more you play, the closer your results get to the RTP.
  • Volatility matters too: High volatility = bigger wins but less often.

RTP ranges by game type:

  • Blackjack (optimal play): 99.5%
  • Video Poker: 97-99%
  • European Roulette: 97.3%
  • Slots: 92-98% (varies widely)
  • American Roulette: 94.74%
  • Keno: 75-90%

Why you should care: Higher RTP = better odds = coins last longer. If you want maximum playtime, choose games with 96%+ RTP. But remember, lower RTP games often have bigger jackpots!

Technical Issues

Here's a step-by-step troubleshooting guide:

1. Check Your Internet Connection

  • Run a speed test (need at least 1 Mbps)
  • Try loading other websites
  • Restart your router/modem
  • Switch from WiFi to mobile data (or vice versa)

2. Clear Browser Cache

Chrome/Edge:

  • Press Ctrl+Shift+Delete (Cmd+Shift+Delete on Mac)
  • Select "Cached images and files"
  • Choose "All time" for time range
  • Click "Clear data"

Then refresh the page (F5 or Ctrl+R)

3. Disable Browser Extensions

  • Ad blockers can interfere with games
  • Try incognito/private mode (extensions disabled)
  • Temporarily disable all extensions

4. Update Your Browser

  • Chrome: Settings → About Chrome
  • Firefox: Help → About Firefox
  • Safari: Safari → About Safari
  • Edge: Settings → About Microsoft Edge

5. Try a Different Browser

If issues persist, try:

  • Chrome (recommended)
  • Firefox
  • Edge
  • Safari (Mac/iOS)

6. Check Device Resources

  • Close unnecessary tabs/programs
  • Restart your device
  • Check available storage (need 100MB free)
  • Disable hardware acceleration if laggy

Still having issues?

  • Note your device type and browser version
  • Take a screenshot of any error messages
  • Contact support with this information
  • We typically respond within 2 hours

Don't worry – your coins are safe! Here's what might be happening:

Common Reasons:

  • Visual delay: Balance updates can take 2-3 seconds after a win
  • Connection interrupted: If you lost connection during the spin, the win is saved but might not display immediately
  • Browser cache: Old balance showing due to cached data
  • Feature games: Some bonuses pay at the end of the feature, not immediately

What to Do:

  1. Wait 30 seconds – Most delays resolve themselves
  2. Refresh the page (F5 or Ctrl+R) – This forces a balance update
  3. Check game history – Click your avatar → Game History to see all transactions
  4. Log out and back in – This syncs your account with our servers
  5. Clear browser cache – Instructions in previous FAQ

Our System Protections:

  • Every spin is logged with a unique ID
  • Wins are recorded before showing on screen
  • Daily backups ensure no data loss
  • Audit trail tracks every coin movement

Important: We've NEVER had a case of coins actually disappearing. In 100% of reports, the coins were there – just not displaying correctly. If you still don't see your coins after these steps, contact support with your Game ID (shown in game history).
