Our commitment
Novibet operates under strict social responsibility obligations imposed by the UK Gambling Commission, Malta Gaming Authority and other regulators. We take those obligations seriously because gambling is only sustainable when it stays entertaining. Every real-money account has a full suite of protection tools built in from the first login — you do not need to ask, request or wait for anything to activate them.
Player protection tools
Deposit limits
Set a maximum you can deposit per day, per week or per month. Decreases apply instantly. Increases require a 24-hour cooling-off period, giving you time to reconsider.
Reality checks
Choose to receive an on-screen alert every 30, 60 or 90 minutes of active play, showing your session length, total wagered and net position.
Time out
Take a short break — 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days or 6 weeks — during which you cannot deposit, wager or open the sportsbook and casino.
Self-exclusion
Exclude yourself for 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years or permanently. UK players are strongly encouraged to also register with GamStop, which blocks access across every UK-licensed operator.
Loss limits
Cap the net amount you can lose over a defined period. Once the limit is hit, further wagering is blocked until the period resets.
Warning signs to watch for
- Spending more time or money on gambling than you originally intended
- Chasing losses by increasing stake sizes to try to recover
- Borrowing money, using credit cards or dipping into savings to fund play
- Hiding gambling activity or lying to friends and family about it
- Feeling anxious, irritable or restless when you are not gambling
- Missing work, family commitments or social plans because of gambling
- Gambling to escape stress, low mood or relationship problems
If any of these resonate, please pause. The support organisations below offer free, confidential help — you do not need to have hit rock bottom to reach out.
Protecting minors
Novibet is strictly 18+. Every account undergoes electronic identity and age verification before any withdrawal is processed, and randomly during play. Anyone attempting to gamble under age will have their account closed and funds returned. Parents and guardians who share devices with children should consider filtering software such as Net Nanny, CyberPatrol or Gamban to block gambling sites entirely.
