Age verification and player protection
NetBet requires that all players are at least 18 years old. When you register your account and every time you log in, your data is checked against the national OASIS blocking database to ensure that excluded players cannot play.
Verification also takes place before bonuses and discounts are awarded and before personalised advertising is sent. After five failed login attempts, your account will be temporarily locked for security reasons and NetBet requires proof of identity before the account is reactivated.
Deposit and stake limits
You can control your gaming behaviour by setting limits on your spending. NetBet gives you the option to set monthly deposit limits and set loss limits and stake limits.
Under German gambling law (GlüStV 2021) the default limit for deposits is 1.000 euros per calendar month. The minimum stake per spin is 1,00 euros. You can adjust and lower these limits at any time in your account settings.
- Monthly deposit limit of up to 1.000 euros
- Set personal loss limits
- Stake limit of 1,00 euros per spin
- Reduce or tighten limits at any time
Self-exclusion and account options
If you notice that your gaming behaviour is becoming problematic, you can self-exclude. Self-exclusion is an effective way to prevent access to your account for a set period of time.
NetBet can also restrict or block your account if you log in and the OASIS blocking database finds an entry. In this case, bonuses will not be granted and your access will remain limited.
- Activate self-exclusion for a flexible period
- Temporarily restrict account
- Set waiting periods before regaining access
- Close account permanently if needed
