How to use this FAQ page

This page brings together answers to the most common questions from 12bets players in Brazil. We've organized everything into categories — registration and account, deposits and payments, withdrawals, bonuses, Sports Betting, casino, and Responsible Gambling — so you can find what you need without having to contact support for every detail. That said, our support team is available 24/7 in Portuguese for anything not covered here.

Use the search bar at the top of the page to quickly find a specific question, or browse by clicking on the category tabs above. Each question is in accordion format — click to expand the answer. If you find what you were looking for, great. If not, the live chat in the bottom corner of the screen connects you with an agent in under 5 minutes on average.

12bets updates this FAQ section regularly to reflect platform changes, new features and questions that come up frequently among Brazilian players. If you think an important question is missing, let us know at suporte@12bets.world — we take all feedback seriously.

Registration & Account

Registration & Account at 12bets

Access 12bets.world/register and fill out the form with your full name, CPF, date of birth, email and phone number. Create a password, accept the Terms and Conditions and confirm that you are 18 or older. After submitting, you'll receive a confirmation email — click the link to activate your account. The whole process takes under 2 minutes and registration is free.

No. As a matter of security policy and regulatory compliance, each CPF may only have one active account at 12bets. Creating multiple accounts to claim the welcome bonus more than once is prohibited and results in all accounts involved being closed, including any accumulated balances and bonuses. If you've forgotten your login credentials, use the "Forgot password" option on the login page — do not create a new account.

KYC (Know Your Customer) is the identity verification process required by regulation to release withdrawals. You don't need to submit documents when registering — you can deposit and bet right away. When you request your first withdrawal, 12bets will ask for a photo of your RG, CNH, or passport, along with a recent proof of address. The review period is up to 24 hours in most cases. Once approved, withdrawals are fully unlocked.

To update your email or phone number, log in, go to account settings, and navigate to the personal details section. Changes to this information require identity verification for security purposes — a confirmation code will be sent to your current contact before the new one is applied. If you no longer have access to your original contact, reach out to 24/7 support via live chat or at suporte@12bets.world.

On the login, click "Forgot my password". Enter your registered email and you'll receive a reset link within a few minutes. If it doesn't appear in your inbox, check your spam folder. The link expires in 30 minutes — if you need a new one, simply repeat the process. If you can't remember which email you used to register, contact support with your CPF and full name.

Yes. The 12bets platform runs directly in your mobile browser — Chrome on Android or Safari on iPhone — with no app download required. The interface is fully responsive. For quicker access, save a shortcut to your home screen using the "Add to Home Screen" option in your browser menu. Every feature available on desktop is also accessible on mobile.
Deposits & Payments

Deposits & Payments at 12bets

12bets accepts Pix, boleto bancário, major credit and debit cards, PicPay, Mercado Pago, and TED bank transfers. All methods work with Brazilian bank accounts — Nubank, Itaú, Bradesco, Banco do Brasil, Caixa, and more. Pix is the fastest and most popular option among Brazilian players, offering instant transfers available 24 hours a day.

The minimum deposit is R$ 20.00 via Pix. For other methods such as boleto bancário and card, the minimum amount may vary — check the Cashier section of your account for the current minimum per method. There is no separate minimum deposit required to activate the welcome bonus: any deposit of R$ 20.00 or more automatically activates the 100% match bonus on the deposited amount.

Deposits via Pix, PicPay and Mercado Pago are processed instantly — the balance appears in your account within seconds. For boleto bancário, funds are available within 1 business day after payment is confirmed by the bank. Credit and debit card deposits typically go through in minutes. TED transfers may take up to 1 business day depending on the time of the transaction. If a Pix deposit doesn't appear within 5 minutes, contact support with your payment receipt.

No. 12bets does not charge any additional fees on deposits. The amount you deposit — whether R$ 50.00 or R$ 500.00 — is credited to your account in full. Any bank charges from your bank or digital wallet (such as a TED fee charged by your bank) are the user's responsibility, but Pix carries no cost at any Brazilian bank.

No. As a regulatory requirement, all deposits must come from a bank account registered under the CPF of the 12bets account holder. Deposits originating from a different CPF are declined and the amount is automatically returned. This applies to all payment methods — Pix, boleto, card, and TED. This rule exists to prevent fraud and protect your account.

To deposit via Pix, go to the Cashier section of your account, select Pix as your method, enter the amount, and generate the QR code or copy the Pix key. Open your banking app (Nubank, Itaú, Bradesco, Banco do Brasil, Caixa, or any other), complete the transfer, and the balance appears in your account within seconds. Pix is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — including weekends and public holidays — with no extra fees.
Withdrawals

Withdrawals at 12bets

Go to the Cashier section of your account, select "Withdraw", choose your method (Pix is the fastest), enter the amount, and confirm. Before your first withdrawal, you'll need to complete identity verification (KYC) by submitting your RG or CNH and a proof of address. Once KYC is approved, withdrawals are processed normally. Pix withdrawals are credited within 5 minutes in most cases.

The minimum withdrawal amount is R$ 20.00 via Pix. For other available withdrawal methods, the minimum may vary — check the Cashier section of your account for up-to-date figures. There is no default maximum withdrawal limit, though withdrawals above certain amounts may go through an additional security review before being processed.

Pix withdrawals are processed within 5 minutes in most cases after internal approval — which typically happens in under 1 hour on business days. During peak hours or for larger withdrawal amounts, processing may take up to 24 hours. If the funds haven't reached your bank account within 24 hours of the confirmation showing in your 12bets dashboard, contact support with your withdrawal request number.

The most common reasons for a withdrawal rejection are: incomplete or failed KYC verification, an active bonus rollover that hasn't been met, a Pix key registered under a CPF different from the account holder's, or suspected irregular activity. In all cases, you'll receive a notification explaining the reason. To dispute a rejection or clarify the situation, contact 24/7 support via live chat or at suporte@12bets.world.

No. For security and regulatory compliance, all withdrawals must be made to a bank account registered under the CPF of the 12bets account holder. This includes Pix keys — the key used for the withdrawal must be linked to your CPF at any Brazilian bank. Withdrawal attempts to third-party accounts are automatically declined.

Not directly. Bonus balance must be converted into real balance by completing the rollover — which is 30x the bonus amount within 30 days. For example: if you received R$ 100.00 in bonus funds, you need to accumulate R$ 3,000.00 in eligible bets to convert that bonus into withdrawable real balance. Any real balance earned through betting can be withdrawn at any time, regardless of the bonus.
Bonuses & Promotions

Bonuses & Promotions at 12bets

The 12bets welcome bonus is a 100% match on your first deposit, up to R$ 500.00. If you deposit R$ 100.00 via Pix, you get an extra R$ 100.00 in bonus funds — giving you R$ 200.00 to play with. To claim the maximum R$ 500.00 bonus, deposit at least R$ 500.00 on your first deposit. The bonus is credited automatically — no promo code needed. The standard rollover requirement is 30x the bonus amount, with a 30-day deadline.

Rollover is the number of times you need to wager your bonus amount before it converts into withdrawable real balance. With a 30x rollover on a R$ 100.00 bonus, you need to accumulate R$ 3,000.00 in eligible bets within 30 days. Bets on sports markets with minimum odds of 1.50 and bets on eligible casino games count toward the rollover. Cancelled, voided or bets placed on excluded markets do not count. Check the Terms and Conditions for the full list of eligible games and markets.

Yes. 12bets offers weekly cashback for members — a percentage of the week's net losses is returned as bonus balance every Monday. The cashback percentage and conditions vary by account level and may change depending on active promotions. To check whether cashback is available for your account and what the current percentage is, go to the Promotions section in your dashboard after logging in.

Free bets are complimentary wagers credited to your account as part of special promotions — typically tied to Brasileirão, Copa do Brasil, Libertadores, or special e-sports rounds. To use a free bet, go to the market of your choice, select your odds, open your bet slip, and choose the available free bet as your payment method. Winnings from free bets usually exclude the original stake — you receive only the net profit as real balance.

Yes. If you'd prefer to play without the rollover conditions tied to the welcome bonus, you can opt out before making your first deposit. The option is available in the Promotions section, or you can disable it by contacting support before depositing. Once the bonus is automatically credited after the deposit, it cannot be reversed — the opt-out must be done beforehand.

Yes. If the rollover is not completed within the 30-day period, any remaining bonus balance is automatically cancelled. Real balance accumulated through wagers during that period is not affected — only the unconverted bonus balance is removed. Keep an eye on the deadline and your rollover progress in the Active Bonuses section of your account. If you have questions about your progress, our 24/7 support team can check that for you.
Sports Betting

Sports Betting at 12bets

12bets offers betting on dozens of sports. In football, you can bet on the Brasileirão Série A, Copa do Brasil, Libertadores, Sul-Americana, and major European leagues. Other available sports include volleyball, basketball (NBB and NBA), MMA/UFC, tennis, e-sports (CS2, League of Legends, Valorant, Dota 2), Formula 1, and more. Odds are updated in real time for live markets.

Cash-out is the option to settle a bet before the event ends, receiving a partial amount calculated based on the current odds. If your bet is winning, cash-out locks in part of the profit even if the result changes. If it's losing, it lets you recover part of your stake. To use it, go to "My Bets" during the event, find the active bet, and click "Cash-out" if the option is available — not all markets support cash-out.

If an event is cancelled, postponed or suspended before completion, bets are generally voided and the wagered amount is returned in full as real balance. For parlay bets, the selection from the cancelled event is removed and the ticket is recalculated using the remaining selections. Specific rules for situations such as football matches played for fewer than 90 minutes or interrupted events are detailed in 12bets' Terms and Conditions.

Live betting lets you wager on events that are already in progress, with odds updated in real time based on the score, match time, and other variables. In the Brasileirão, for example, you can bet on the next goal, the half-time result, second-half corners, or dozens of other markets while the match is playing. The live interface is available on both mobile and desktop, with automatic updates — no page refresh needed.

The minimum bet at 12bets is R$ 1.00 per slip. The maximum bet per wager varies by market, sport, and event — popular markets like the Brasileirão full-time result have higher limits, while niche markets may have lower ones. Each market's limit is shown on the bet slip when you enter an amount above the allowed maximum. For specific limits, contact support.

An accumulator combines two or more selections from different events into a single bet slip. The odds of each selection are multiplied together, producing a higher combined odd — and a greater potential return. To win, every selection on the slip must be correct. You can mix markets from football, volleyball, e-sports, and other sports. To build an accumulator, simply add your selections to the bet slip and the system will automatically calculate the total odds and potential payout.
Casino & Games

Casino & Games at 12bets

12bets offers hundreds of options in its online casino: slots with progressive jackpots, live roulette with real dealers in Portuguese, blackjack, baccarat, live poker, crash games like Aviator and Spaceman, and instant-win games. The catalog is regularly updated with new releases from certified providers. All casino games use an RNG (Random Number Generator) certified by independent laboratories, ensuring 100% random and auditable results.

RTP (Return to Player) is the theoretical percentage of total wagers that a game returns to players over time. A slot with 96% RTP returns, on average, R$ 96.00 for every R$ 100.00 wagered in the long run — though individual results can vary widely. At 12bets, the RTP for each game is available in the title's information panel, accessible via the info icon (i) on the game screen or on the slot's detail page. Progressive jackpot slots generally have a slightly lower base RTP because a portion of each bet contributes to the jackpot pool.

Progressive jackpots are accumulated prizes that grow with every bet placed on eligible slots — a small percentage of each wager feeds into the jackpot pool. When a player hits the winning combination, they take the entire jackpot and the counter resets to a base value to start accumulating again. At 12bets, the current value of progressive jackpots is displayed in real time within the games themselves and in the Jackpot section of the platform. Any bet placed on the slot, even the minimum, qualifies you for a chance at the jackpot.

Crash games are casino games where a multiplier starts at 1x and climbs continuously until it "crashes" at a random point. The goal is to cash out — collect your winnings — before the crash happens. If you cash out in time, you win your stake multiplied by the multiplier at the moment of withdrawal. If the game crashes before you cash out, you lose your stake. Popular titles at 12bets include Aviator and Spaceman. Results are determined by a certified RNG algorithm.

12bets offers live casino tables with real dealers via high-quality streaming. Some available tables feature Portuguese-speaking dealers, particularly from providers that develop content for the Brazilian market. The betting interface is also fully in Portuguese. To find tables with Portuguese-speaking dealers, use the language filter in the Live Casino section of the platform.

Yes, with conditions. Bonus funds can be used on eligible casino games to meet the rollover requirement. However, not all casino games count toward rollover — slots typically contribute 100%, while roulette and blackjack may contribute a lower percentage or nothing at all, depending on the bonus type. Check the Terms and Conditions of the specific bonus for the list of eligible games and the contribution percentage for each category.
Responsible Gambling

Responsible Gambling at 12bets

After logging in, go to the profile menu and select "Responsible Gambling". Choose "Deposit Limit", select the period (daily, weekly, or monthly), and enter the maximum amount in BRL (R$). The limit takes effect immediately. Any request to increase a limit only takes effect after 7 days — a mandatory cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decisions. Limit reductions take effect immediately. For more information, visit the Responsible Gambling.

In the "Responsible Gambling" section of your account dashboard, select "Voluntary Break" and choose the duration: 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or 6 months. Once confirmed, access to your account is suspended immediately for the chosen period — with no option for early cancellation. During the break, new deposits and bets are blocked. To withdraw your available real balance during a break, contact support at suporte@12bets.world.

Permanent self-exclusion closes your 12bets account irreversibly. Once activated, your CPF and email are added to the exclusion list — any new registration attempts using the same details will be automatically blocked. This measure should be used when other tools (limits, voluntary breaks) are no longer sufficient. Self-exclusion is available in the "Responsible Gambling" section of your account dashboard. Once activated, it cannot be undone.

No. 12bets is intended exclusively for users aged 18 and over. Age verification is carried out at registration via CPF and reinforced during the KYC process through document submission. Accounts belonging to minors are closed immediately upon identification. If you suspect a minor is using the platform with your details or has created their own account, contact us immediately at suporte@12bets.world with the subject line "Underage Access".

Our support team is available 24/7 in Portuguese to talk without judgment about gambling behavior and guide you through the available tools. Reach us via live chat on the platform or at suporte@12bets.world. In addition to 12bets support, CVV (Centro de Valorização da Vida) offers emotional support by phone at 188 or at cvv.org.br.
