FAQs

Troubleshooting

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

If you're having issues and nothing else seems to help, try logging out of your account and logging back in. If that doesn’t work, delete the app and reinstall it. You’d be surprised how often these two quick steps solve the problem.


I'm not recieving a verification code?

If you're experiencing trouble receiving verification codes for account recovery or password resets, try these additional steps:

  1. Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data to improve connectivity.

  2. Delete old verification codes from SMS or email before requesting a new one.

  3. Wait about 10 minutes before entering new verification codes to ensure the most recent one is used.

These steps can help resolve common verification code issues.

How do I change my Odds Format?

To change the Odds Format, tap the gear icon (⚙️) in the top-right corner next to your balance to access Settings. Scroll to the bottom of the page, and you'll see the option to switch between 'Fractional' (E.G 5/1) or 'Decimal' (E.G $6.00) odds formats. Easy!



Verification & Sign-Up

Why do I need to verify my identity?

Dabble is required to verify all our customer accounts before allowing any real money activity. This forms part of our KYC (Know Your Customer) and Anti-Money Laundering obligation and can be completed within our app in just a few minutes.

Please be aware that Dabble permits only one account per user. If you’re experiencing trouble accessing your existing Dabble account, kindly contact our team at [email protected], and we’ll gladly assist you.

You’ll find more details on account verification in our Help Centre here.


​Why was my verification document rejected?

Verification documents may be rejected if the full document is not visible, the image is unclear, or important details can’t be read. Following the tips here can help avoid delays.

Why is my selfie not matching my ID?

This can happen if the selfie image isn’t clear, lighting is poor, or your appearance doesn’t closely match the photo on your ID.

To improve your chances of success:

  • Make sure nothing is covering your face (such as hats or glasses)

  • Use good lighting, ideally in a bright, natural environment

  • Use a plain, clear background

  • Hold the camera closer so your full face is clearly visible


What should I do if my verification keeps failing?

If verification doesn’t succeed on the first attempt, try the following:

  • Make sure you’re using the latest version of the app

  • Log out and back in, then retry verification

  • Retake your selfie following the guidance above

  • Upload a valid, clear photo of your ID

If issues persist, you may be asked to provide additional information for review.



What if my details don’t match my ID?

If the information on your account doesn’t match your ID (for example, name or date of birth), verification may fail.

Please check that your details are entered correctly in the app.
If your ID shows a different name (such as a previous or maiden name), you may be asked to provide supporting documentation to confirm the change.



What if my appearance has changed since my ID photo was taken?

If your appearance has changed significantly since your ID photo was issued, automated checks may not succeed.

In this case:

  • Take a clear selfie that accurately reflects your current appearance

  • You may be asked to submit your ID and selfie for manual review



Why am I being asked for additional verification?

In some situations, we may request further verification to meet regulatory or security requirements. This can happen during withdrawals, account changes, or if additional checks are required.

If this applies, we’ll contact you by email with clear instructions on what’s needed.

What happens if verification fails multiple times?

If verification attempts are unsuccessful, access to certain features may be temporarily restricted until verification is completed.

If this happens, please contact our Support Team, who can help review your documents and advise on next steps.

How do I contact Support about verification?

If you’re unable to complete verification after following the steps above:

  • Contact our Support Team via Live Chat or email

  • Make sure you have your ID and any requested documents ready, as this can help speed things up



​What does the message “A signup attempt was made using this phone number” mean?


This message indicates that a Dabble account has already been started or registered using the mobile number entered.

Each mobile number can only be associated with one account. If you already have an account, you’ll need to sign in rather than create a new one.


If your account was not fully completed, you can return to the sign-in page and enter your mobile number along with the password you originally set.


If you no longer remember your password, select “Forgot password” to reset it and continue with your account setup.

How do I update my personal details?


To update personal details such as your email address or mobile number, you’ll need to contact our Support Team.

You can get in touch with us via Live Chat during our operational hours, or by emailing [email protected].

For security reasons, personal details cannot be changed directly within the app. Our Support Team will guide you through the update process and advise if any verification is required.

Account holders are expected to keep their account information accurate and up to date, including letting us know if any details change.

You can view our current operational hours here.


Banking

Why can’t I action any Deposit or Withdrawals over the phone?

We don’t process deposits or withdrawals over the phone. Instead, you can easily manage all payments directly through the Dabble app. It’s faster, more secure, and gives you full control.

To make a deposit or withdrawal, just log into the app. From there, you can:

  • Add or update your credit/debit card

  • Set up your nominated bank account for withdrawals

  • Make deposits and withdraw funds anytime

Everything is designed to be simple, transparent, and in your hands.



Deposits

What deposit methods are available?

UK customers can deposit using:

  • Apple Pay (Apple)

  • Debit card (Visa or Mastercard)

  • Google Pay (Android)

For more info, check out our How To Deposit Article

What is the minimum amount I can deposit?

The minimum deposit amount is £5.

Why didn’t my deposit go through?

Some UK banks may block online payments to wagering companies. If you're using a card from banks like TSB, Virgin Money, Co-operative Bank, Monzo, or American Express, and the transaction fails, it might be due to their restrictions.

Try using a card from a different bank or contact your bank directly for clarification.

Insufficient funds
Make sure you have enough available funds in your account before attempting to deposit.


Incorrect CVV
Double-check that the 3-digit CVV on the back of your card matches what you’ve entered. A mismatch will cause the deposit to be declined.


Expired card
Ensure your card is still valid and hasn’t expired.


Card reported lost or stolen
If your card has been flagged as lost or stolen, your bank will automatically block any transactions made with it.


Still can’t deposit funds?
You may have reached your deposit limit cap. Check your account settings or get in touch with us for more info.

What should I do if my deposit keeps failing?

If you’re experiencing repeated deposit failures, there are a few common reasons and steps you can try.

Repeated failed attempts

Multiple unsuccessful deposit attempts in a short period may result in temporary restrictions from your bank or payment provider.

  • Wait 24–48 hours before trying again

  • Avoid making repeated attempts in quick succession

  • If available, try using a different card or payment method

Bank-related issues

Deposits may be declined by your bank for security or authorisation reasons.

  • Contact your bank to check why the payment was declined

  • Ask whether there are any temporary blocks or restrictions on your card

  • Some bank blocks can take 24 hours or longer to clear

App troubleshooting

If the issue doesn’t appear to be bank-related, try the following:

  • Log out of the Dabble app and log back in

  • Close and reopen the app

  • If the issue persists, uninstall and reinstall the app to refresh your session

If you’re still unable to make a deposit after trying the steps above, please contact our Support Team for further assistance.



​​Why am I being asked to approve my deposit?

Some banks require additional approval for online transactions.
You may be asked to confirm the deposit using a one-time code, banking app prompt, Face ID, or fingerprint.


Follow the on-screen instructions from your bank to complete the deposit.

Where can I see my deposit history?


You can view your deposit history in the app by going to Settings ⚙️ → Transaction History and filtering by Deposits.




Withdrawals


​What is the minimum amount I can withdraw?

The minimum withdrawal amount is £5.



​Do you offer fast withdrawals?

Customers may be eligible for fast withdrawals, which can allow withdrawals to a verified UK bank account or Card to be processed within minutes once your details are verified. Fast withdrawals are not guaranteed for every request.

Why is my withdrawal still pending?


A withdrawal may be pending due to routine review, additional verification requirements, bank checks, submission after 3:00pm, weekends/public holidays, or unsupported payment methods.

If you’ve received an email from us requesting more information, please follow the instructions to avoid delays.

For a full breakdown of withdrawal statuses and processing times, see How to Withdraw.

How long will the review take?

Withdrawals from Dabble accounts may be subject to manual reviews , which could result in longer processing times. This might take a little longer, but it’s an important step to keep your account secure.

After that, withdrawals are typically sent to your bank within a few minutes using our Fast Bank Transfer, provided your bank supports faster payments. In some cases, especially with certain banks or larger amounts - it may take up to 24 hours to clear.

If you make a withdrawal request before 3:00PM (BST), it should be processed the same day.

Why might some withdrawals take longer?

  • Bank processing times: Some banks may hold funds and process them as standard transfers, especially for higher amounts.

  • Manual reviews: Occasionally, we may need to manually review a withdrawal. Even in those cases, we process payments at least twice a day, including weekends, so most users receive funds shortly after making a request.

Where can I check my withdrawal status?

You can check your withdrawal status in the app at Settings ⚙️ → ⚡ Withdraw Funds → Withdrawal History.

Withdrawal statuses you may see:

  • Pending - Under review or requiring more info

  • Approved - Reviewed and queued for processing (no action needed)

  • Paid - Released from our end and subject to bank processing times


Can I cancel my withdrawal?

Once a withdrawal request has been submitted, it cannot be cancelled or reversed back into your account.

The withdrawal will continue to be processed as requested. If you have any questions about the status of a pending withdrawal, please contact our Support Team, who can help provide an update.

Can I withdraw funds to my card?

Yes! In most cases, withdrawals can be returned to the same payment method used to make your deposit. This is part of our closed-loop withdrawal process.

If your card supports withdrawals, your funds will be sent back to that card. Some card types do not support withdrawals. If this applies, your withdrawal will instead be processed to your verified UK bank account.

In these cases, we may need to request documents to confirm account ownership before the withdrawal can be completed.

Why can’t I remove my bank account?

At this stage, you can only have one bank account linked to your Dabble account at a time.

If you need to edit or remove your bank details, just reach out to our Support Team via Live Chat, and they’ll help get it sorted.

I've been asked to verify my bank account, can I do this over Live-Chat?

No, for security and privacy reasons, account verification documents cannot be submitted through Live Chat.

To complete bank account verification, we require a PDF copy of a bank statement, which should be sent directly to our Support Team by return email.

Sending your documents by email ensures they are received by the correct team and handled in line with our verification procedures.

Why do I need to verify my account before withdrawing?

Verification ensures your withdrawal is sent to the correct payment method and meets regulatory and compliance requirements. Verification may be needed for first withdrawals, recent payment updates, or if a bank account hasn’t been linked with TrueLayer.

If you’ve been asked to provide documents, see How to upload verification documents successfully for guidance.

What documents might be required for verification?

We may ask for a PDF copy of a bank statement or other documentation if verification is required. Any request will come with clear instructions by email.

Can I redact information on my documents?

Yes. You can redact non-required information, as long as all details requested in the verification email remain clearly visible.


Betting

Do you offer in-play betting?

Yes! In-play betting is available on Dabble for football.

You can place in-play bets on live football matches as they happen. For full details on how it works and the rules that apply, see our Football – In Play Betting Rules article.

Why isn’t my Free Bet option available?

If the Free Bet option isn’t available, there are a few common reasons this may happen.

  • Check your Free Bet balance

  1. Go to Settings ⚙️ or check your Balance 💲 to confirm whether you have any Free Bets available

  2. If your balance has recently updated, closing and reopening the app may help refresh it

  • Applying a Free Bet

To use a Free Bet, you’ll need to:

  1. Add your selection to the betslip

  2. Open the betslip and switch the Free Bets option on

  3. Enter the amount you’d like to use from your Free Bet balance

  • Eligibility or Account Restrictions

In some cases, Free Bets may be unavailable due to promotion eligibility conditions or account-level restrictions. If this applies, the Free Bet option will not be selectable.

If you can see Free Bets in your balance and the option is still unavailable after following the steps above, please contact our Support Team for further assistance.

For more information, you can also refer to our Free Bets help article.

What happens if one leg of my bet is voided?

What happens depends on the type of bet you placed.

Same Game Bet Builder

If your bet is a Same Game Bet Builder and one of the selections is voided, the entire bet is void & the stake will be refunded.

Accumulator (Acca)

If your bet is an Accumulator (Acca), the bet will continue with the remaining selections, and the voided leg will be removed.

Pick’em

If your bet is a Pick’em, the bet will continue at a reduced multiplier with the remaining selections as long as at least two selections involving different teams remain after any voided legs are removed.

If fewer than two eligible selections remain, the stake will be refunded.


Example A — Bet continues (Still 2+ different teams remain)

You place a 4-leg Pick’em involving:

  • Player A (Team 1)

  • Player B (Team 2)

  • Player C (Team 3)

  • Player D (Team 3)

If the Team 1 selection is voided, the remaining legs include Team 2 and Team 3.

Because there are still selections involving at least two different teams, the Pick’em continues at a reduced multiplier.

Example B — Stake refunded (no longer 2 different teams remain)

You place a 4-leg Pick’em involving:

  • Player A (Team 1)

  • Player B (Team 2)

  • Player C (Team 2)

  • Player D (Team 2)

If the Team 1 selection is voided, all remaining selections are from Team 2.

Because the remaining legs no longer involve two different teams, the Pick’em is void and the stake is refunded.

What happens if my bet is voided and I’ve used a £10 Free Bet?


​If a bet is voided and a Free Bet was used as the stake, the Free Bet stake will be re-credited to your account.

Once re-credited, the Free Bet will be available to use again for 7 days, subject to the original Free Bet Terms and Conditions.

Example

If you place a £10 Free Bet on a Football BetBuilder and one of the selections in that BetBuilder is later voided, causing the entire bet to be void, the £10 Free Bet stake will be returned to your Free Bet balance. You will then have 7 days from the date it is re-credited to use it again.


Passwords

How do I make my account more secure with passwords?

Keeping your account secure is essential. One of the most effective ways to protect it is by using strong, regularly updated passwords. Avoid using easily guessed information like birthdays or names, as these make your account more vulnerable.

Here are some tips for creating strong passwords:

  • Avoid personal information: Don’t use names, birthdays, or anything easily guessed.

  • Mix it up: Use a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols.

  • Use unique passwords: Don’t reuse the same password across multiple accounts or systems.

  • Update regularly: Change your passwords frequently to enhance your security.

Stay vigilant and make your account security a habit.

How do I reset my password?

Have you forgotten your username or do you want to change your password?

To reset your password, follow the steps below:

  1. Tap Sign In, then select Forgotten Password.

  2. Enter the mobile number linked to your account and tap Enter.

  3. Enter your Date of Birth, then select Send verification code.

  4. You’ll receive a text message containing a verification code. This is usually sent quickly but may take a few minutes. Enter the code when prompted and tap Next.

  5. Once the code has been verified, you’ll be able to set a new password and regain access to your account.

If you forget your username, remember Dabble offers a mobile ID.
