  2. Fill in the registration form with your personal details – name, date of birth, address, and contact information.
  3. Create a username and a strong password. Use a mix of upper‑ and lower‑case letters, numbers, and symbols.
  4. Agree to the terms and conditions and confirm you are of legal age.

Maximising Your Bonus

The welcome offer at Pointsbet typically gives new players a 100% match on their first deposit up to a certain amount. To decide whether the bonus is worthwhile, you need to understand the wagering requirements and calculate your expected return. Here is a worked example using realistic figures.

Example: Deposit $50. The bonus is 100% up to $100, so you receive a $50 bonus. The combined balance becomes $100. The wagering requirement is 30x the deposit plus bonus amount. That means you must wager 30 × ($50 + $50) = 30 × $100 = $3,000 before any winnings from the bonus become withdrawable.

Formula: Wagering requirement = multiplier × (deposit + bonus).

Numbers: $3,000 total wagers needed. If you play a slot with a 96% RTP, the expected loss over $3,000 in bets is $3,000 × (1 – 0.96) = $120. Since you only received a $50 bonus, your net expected loss is $120 – $50 = $70. This means the bonus is negative value in this scenario if you only consider the base RTP. However, you can improve the value by choosing games that contribute 100% to wagering and have a higher RTP (e.g., blackjack with 99.5% RTP, if allowed). Always check the game contribution table in the bonus terms.

Mobile App

Pointsbet does not currently offer a native app on the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Instead, you can access the full site through any mobile browser. The website is fully responsive and works like a progressive web app (PWA). To add it to your home screen for quick access:

  • On iOS: Open Safari, visit the Pointsbet site, tap the Share icon, and select “Add to Home Screen”.
  • On Android: Open Chrome, tap the three‑dot menu, and choose “Add to Home Screen”.

Once added, the icon launches the site in a full‑screen mode, and you can log in just as you would on desktop. All features – betting, casino games, live dealer, and withdrawals – are available on mobile.

Quick Answers

What documents do I need to verify my account?

You will need a colour copy of a valid passport, driver’s licence, or national ID card, plus a recent utility bill or bank statement showing your name and address. Upload them in the “Account Verification” section of your profile.

Can I use the same account on multiple devices?

Yes, your login credentials work on any device. You can switch between your phone, tablet, and computer without any issues. However, you can only be logged in on one device at a time for security reasons.

How long do withdrawals take?

Withdrawal times depend on the method. E‑wallets like PayPal typically process within 24 hours, bank transfers take 2–5 business days, and card withdrawals can take 3–7 business days. Your first withdrawal may take longer due to initial KYC checks.

What happens if I forget my password?

Click the “Forgot password” link on the login page. Enter your registered email address, and you will receive a reset link. Follow the instructions to create a new password. Make sure to check your spam folder if the email does not arrive within a few minutes.

Are there any country restrictions?

Pointsbet accepts players from many countries, but residents of the USA, UK, Australia, and a few other jurisdictions may be restricted. Check the terms and conditions for the full list of prohibited countries.

Extra Tips

Responsible gambling tools are available in your account settings. You can set deposit limits (daily, weekly, or monthly), session time limits, and loss limits. If you feel the need to take a break, use the self‑exclusion option. Self‑exclusion can be temporary (e.g., 24 hours, 7 days) or permanent. For permanent exclusion, you must contact customer support. These tools help you stay in control of your gambling and prevent problem behaviour.

Note: If you are playing under a Curacao license, remember that winnings may be subject to local income tax depending on your country of residence. Consult a tax professional if you are unsure about your obligations.

By following this guide, you can navigate the initial steps with confidence, make an informed decision about the welcome bonus, and use the mobile experience to play wherever you are. Always gamble responsibly and never chase losses.
