New BIT Study Recommends Greater Flexibility in Setting Deposit Limits
Behavioural Insights Team (BIT) has published the findings of its latest study on deposit limit settings.
The study, commissioned by GambleAware, tested different deposit limit settings for Bet365 customers. This saw a number of the operator’s customers, that had not yet set a deposit limit, sent prompts reminding them to set limits on their spending.
The 1731 customers that followed the prompt were then shown three different versions of the deposit limit page. Of this number, 604 customers were directed to Bet365’s standard page, with a dropdown menu allowing them to set limits in denominations from £5 to £100,00, or to continue gambling without a limit. The second, shown to 571 customers, suggested a range of deposit limits up to £250, as well as the “no limit” option. Finally, 556 were shown a text box where they could enter any sum they chose.
This showed that those shown the operator’s standard deposit limit options tended to give themselves more leeway to spend. Median limit among those 604 customers was £14.30 per day, above the £8.30 set by those given the option to choose figure up to £250.
Players directed to the text box with no set options, meanwhile, set a median deposit limit of £7.10.
Mean limits, despite being much higher in all three groups, also followed this trend. The original deposit limit page recorded a mean limit of £1,601.10, compared with £230.81 for those given the option of up to £250.
For the players shown the text box, their mean limit came to £308.78, slightly higher than that of the customers shown options up to £250, which the BIT said was mostly due to some “outliers.”
Because of these differences, the BIT recommended that all operators present limits using the free text box format and that this format be required in the British Gambling Commission’s Licence Conditions and Codes of Practice (LCCP).
“In place of LCCP provisions we alternatively recommend that the Gambling Commission regularly updates the public regarding which operators have yet to remove high anchors from their tools,” the authors added. “This approach would not only address recent calls on the Commission to utilise reputational incentives, but also give the industry scope to demonstrate proactive progress in lieu of active regulation.”
The authors added that further study should be undertaken into deposit limit best practices.
“Much more work is needed to test robustly and independently the impacts of various facets of online gambling using randomised controlled trials in live business environments,” the Behavioural Insights Team said. “Only then will robust, independent evidence exist to inform policies, practices and procedures.”

18th Federal Civil Court of the Federal District blocks enforcement of Brazilian registration No. 501759803 after action by Aviator Studio Brazil.
A Federal Court in Brazil has ordered the suspension of Spribe’s trademark registration for “Aviator,” preventing the company from relying on exclusivity rights tied to Brazilian trademark registration No. 501759803 until a final judgment is issued.
The decision was issued by the 18th Federal Civil Court of the Federal District, following legal action brought by Aviator Studio Brazil. Aviator Studio said the court recognized the strength of its claims on the grounds of invalidation of Spribe’s trademarks.
According to Aviator Studio, the case centers on evidence that the Aviator trademark was created and used years before Spribe obtained trademark protection in Brazil. The company said the court acknowledged evidence that the Aviator brand originated in Georgia in 2016 and was formally registered there in 2018.
The court also took note of prior judicial decisions in Georgia that, according to Aviator Studio, invalidated Spribe’s registration of the Aviator trademark and confirmed the rights of the original trademark owner.
“This decision represents an important step in protecting the Aviator brand and enforcing intellectual property rights internationally. In practical terms, this means that, until the final resolution of the Spribe’s trademark invalidation proceedings, Spribe will no longer be able to continue it’s disruptive practices against operators, including sending threatening letters or initiating legal actions related to the use of Aviator Studio’s trademark.” comments George Pruidze, CEO of Aviator Studio. “We remain committed to defending the integrity of the Aviator brand and ensuring that its legitimate ownership is recognized across all jurisdictions.”

Aviator Studio Secures Significant Legal Victory in Brazil as Federal Court Suspends Spribe’s Aviator Trademark Rights
Aviator Studio has achieved a significant legal victory in Brazil after a Federal Court ordered the suspension of Spribe’s trademark registration for “Aviator,” recognizing the strength of Aviator Studio’s claims related to the grounds of invalidation of Spribe’s trademarks.
The decision, issued by the 18th Federal Civil Court of the Federal District, prevents Spribe from relying on the exclusivity rights arising from Brazilian trademark registration No. 501759803 until a final judgment is rendered.
The ruling follows legal action brought by Aviator Studio Brazil, which demonstrated that the Aviator trademark had been created and used years before Spribe obtained trademark protection in Brazil. The court acknowledged evidence showing that the Aviator brand originated in Georgia in 2016 and was formally registered there in 2018, years before Spribe’s Brazilian registration.
Importantly, the court also took note of previous judicial decisions in Georgia that invalidated Spribe’s registration of the Aviator trademark and confirmed the rights of the original trademark owner.
“This decision represents an important step in protecting the Aviator brand and enforcing intellectual property rights internationally.

Aviator Studio will continue pursuing all available legal measures to safeguard its intellectual property rights and protect the integrity of the Aviator trademark worldwide.

Esportes da Sorte aired a World Cup-themed activation on Times Square’s large-format screens in New York on 13 and 14 June 2026, following Brazil’s opening match of the tournament. The campaign ran in two continuous five-minute slots and prompted passers-by to sing the chant: “I am Brazilian, with great pride and great love”.
The Times Square creative featured singer Léo Santana and a group of brand ambassadors and influencers named by the company as Carlinhos Maia, Bruno Formiga, Luisinho Freitas and Raul Erlich, who are producing tournament coverage from the US.
The activation was placed by Esportes Gaming Brasil, the holding group behind Esportes da Sorte, Lottu and Onabet. The company said the New York placement formed part of a wider multi-platform World Cup strategy spanning advertising, live activations and real-time content.
