How DawBets notifies you
Notifications & alerts · Web & iOS · Last updated August 28, 2026
Quick answer
DawBets reaches you three ways: push notifications in the iPhone app, which carry bet alerts and settlement results; email, for account, billing and trial matters; and banners inside the app itself. Push notifications are iPhone-only today — the web Settings page shows a Push Notifications card badged Coming Soon, and no browser asks you for permission.
The three channels
| Channel | What it carries | Where it works |
|---|---|---|
| Push notification | Bet alerts, settlement results, trial reminders | The iPhone app only |
| Receipts, payment problems, trial and cancellation notices, feedback confirmations | Any account with a confirmed address | |
| In-app banner | Billing and trial states | Both |
| Announcement banner | Product announcements | The web app |
Nothing DawBets sends is a prediction about who wins. A bet alert tells you a price moved; an email tells you something happened to your account.
Push is the iPhone app, not your browser
If you use DawBets on a laptop, there is no notification switch to find. The Push Notifications card on Settings is badged Coming Soon and has no toggle, no browser permission prompt exists anywhere in the app, and nothing on the server sends a browser push on a schedule. Push today means the iPhone app and only the iPhone app.
The iPhone app is not on the App Store yet. It is built and this page describes how it works, but there is nothing to install today — everything here also works in the browser at dawbets.com, which you can add to your home screen from Safari's Share menu.
On the web: On desktop, keep the bet feed open in a tab — it refreshes on its own. See DawBets on iPhone if you want alerts on the go.
Bet alerts and settlement notifications
The push types behave very differently, on purpose. A bet alert fires when a pre-game price moves into positive expected value that clears the rules you set. (Expected value, or EV, is the gap between your sportsbook’s price and the fair price DawBets works out from the wider market — see Expected value and fair price.)
- Bet alerts are sent time-sensitive, so they can break through Focus and Do Not Disturb. Each run sends one — the strongest qualifying bet — and counts the rest on its last line. How bet alerts are chosen is the full account of what fires one.
- Settlement notifications are quiet reports on bets you already tracked, sent individually or as one roundup when several settle together. They use the normal alert level and respect silence — see Settlement notifications.
- Trial reminders land at most twice before a trial ends: one sent from DawBets in the daytime, a day or two out, and one your phone schedules for itself in the final hours. Both stop once you subscribe. The two trial reminder emails are a separate thing and can still land if you upgrade mid-trial — see Emails DawBets sends you.
Quiet hours treat the two differently too: a bet alert inside your window is discarded, while a settlement is held and delivered once the window ends. Quiet hours and daily alert limits covers that and the daily cap on alerts.
An alert is a price, not a tip
A sportsbook can shorten or pull an alerted line within seconds, so check the price in the app before you stake anything — a vanished edge is normal, not a delivery fault. Sports betting is 21+ and legal only in some states, and an edge is not income; if it has stopped being fun, read our responsible-gambling resources.
Who gets what
Bet alerts and settlement notifications need Plus or Pro. An active trial counts, and entitlement is re-checked at the moment of sending — an account that has lapsed back to Free receives nothing, including anything queued for it. Account email and in-app banners reach every account regardless of plan.

Where the controls live
On iOS: Every notification control is in the iPhone app under Settings → Alerts, which holds two rows: Notifications (the account’s master switch, settlement notifications, quiet hours and a test send) and Bet alerts (its own switch, and the rules behind it). The web app has no notification settings at all.
Setting them up, in order, including what to do if you tapped Don’t Allow on the iOS prompt: Turn on notifications on iPhone. If they are on and nothing arrives, Not getting bet alerts is the checklist.
Banners inside the app
The strip above the app carries one billing banner at a time, in priority order: a failed payment first, then a trial countdown, then a cancellation grace period. That band is on both the web and the iPhone app. Product announcements are separate and web-only: they appear below the header, targeted by plan and by the sportsbooks you follow, each with a dismiss control.
Tip
A dismissed announcement is remembered in that browser only. The same banner reappears on another device, in another browser, or in a private window — that is expected, not a bug.
Billing email is triggered by events, not a schedule — receipts, declined cards, cancellations and plan changes. Trial and win-back emails are scheduled to land in the morning in your account’s timezone, and they only ever go to an address that was confirmed at signup. Emails DawBets sends you is the full list; Unsubscribe from DawBets emails covers what you can switch off.
Common questions
Can I get DawBets notifications in my web browser?
Not yet. The Push Notifications card in Settings is badged Coming Soon, no browser permission prompt exists, and nothing sends browser push. Push notifications are delivered through the iPhone app today.
Do I need a subscription to get notifications?
Bet alerts and settlement notifications require Plus or Pro, and an active trial counts. Account email and in-app banners reach every account, including Free.
How do I get notified when a good bet appears?
Bet alerts are a push notification, so they come from the iPhone app — [DawBets on iPhone](/help/dawbets-for-iphone) covers where that stands. In the app: allow notifications when iOS asks, turn on Notifications under Settings → Alerts → Notifications, then turn on Bet alerts and set your minimum EV and filters under Settings → Alerts → Bet alerts → Bet alert rules.
Can I get alerts on my desktop?
No. There is no desktop or browser push. Keep the bet feed open in a tab on a laptop — it refreshes itself. Push runs through the iPhone app, and [DawBets on iPhone](/help/dawbets-for-iphone) is where to check what you can use today.
Will bet alerts wake me up at night?
They can — bet alerts are time-sensitive and break through Focus and Do Not Disturb. Set Quiet hours on the Notifications screen to stop that. Alerts inside the window are dropped, not delivered later.
