1.1 About Sbarter
Sbarter is a competitive gaming platform that allows players to challenge each other in supported video games with real stakes. Players can create or accept Challenges, agree on a pledge amount, play the match on their preferred gaming platform, and submit the result through the Sbarter app. Sbarter does not host the games themselves. Instead, it manages the Challenge, the pledge and the payout while you continue playing on your chosen platform.
Sbarter is designed for anyone who enjoys competitive gaming. Whether you play casually with friends or compete regularly, Sbarter provides a secure and fair way to create Challenges, join Tournaments and compete for real stakes. You do not need to be a professional gamer to use Sbarter.
Sbarter enhances the games you already enjoy by providing a trusted platform for creating Challenges and Tournaments with secure pledges and automated payouts. Through player verification, responsible gaming measures and blockchain technology, Sbarter delivers a transparent, secure and fair competitive experience without changing how you play your favourite games. On a growing selection of supported games, Sbarter also provides automated results, making competition even more seamless and eliminating the need for manual score reporting.
Sbarter is an international platform. Availability depends on local regulations, publisher requirements and regional availability.
Sbarter adds a competitive layer to the games you already play. You can challenge friends or other players, enter organised tournaments, compete for real stakes and track your progress over time. The platform is designed to make competitive gaming simple, secure and fair.
No, Sbarter is built for players of all skill levels.
No, Sbarter uses blockchain technology behind the scenes. You do not need any prior knowledge of blockchain or cryptocurrency to use the platform.
Some information may be available without signing in. However, you will need a Sbarter account to create or join Challenges, enter Tournaments, manage your Wallet and access player features.
Available games depend on publisher participation, platform support and your location. Browse the current list in the app to find out on the currently available games.
Sbarter continually expands its library of supported games. Keep your app updated and check back regularly.
Yes, you must own or otherwise have legitimate access to the required game and platform.
Sbarter currently offers Challenges (head-to-head matches) and Tournaments (organised competitions involving multiple players).
1.2 Getting Started
Download the Sbarter app, register using your email address or another supported sign-in method, then follow the on-screen instructions. Depending on your country and how you intend to use the platform, you may also be asked to complete identity verification.
No, every Sbarter account must be registered and used by the individual player. You should not create an account on behalf of someone else or share your account credentials.
No, players are expected to maintain a single personal account. Creating multiple accounts may result in restrictions if it breaches Sbarter's Terms of Use.
If your country's dialling code is not listed, update the app to the latest version and try again. If the problem continues, contact Sbarter Support before creating another account.
Open the app and select your profile from the main navigation menu. From there, you can manage your personal information, linked games, security settings and account preferences.
Your Sbarter User ID is displayed in your profile. It is a unique identifier that Sbarter Support may request when assisting you with your account or transactions.
You can update your nickname and avatar from your profile settings. Some profile changes may require confirmation or additional verification.
You can update your email address from your account settings. For security reasons, you may be asked to verify your new email address before the change takes effect.
You can change your password at any time from your account settings. If you have forgotten your password, use the password recovery option available on the sign-in screen.
Your date of birth is collected during registration or identity verification. If it cannot be edited, or if it has been entered incorrectly, please contact Sbarter Support for assistance.
A phone number may be optional in some regions and mandatory in others. If your country's dialling code is unavailable, contact Sbarter Support for assistance.
Go to My Games in your profile, select a supported game, and enter your in-game name. Linking your game allows Sbarter to associate your in-game identity with your Sbarter account.
Linking your in-game name confirms your in-game identity, supports match result validation and allows you to participate in supported Challenges and Tournaments.
If supported, you can manage linked games through your profile settings. Some games cannot be unlinked after they have been used in competitive events. If you require assistance, please contact Sbarter Support.
Know Your Customer (KYC) verification helps Sbarter comply with legal and regulatory requirements, prevent fraud and protect players. Certain platform features are only available after verification has been completed.
Yes, depending on your country and account status. However, paid Challenges, withdrawals and certain Wallet features may not be available until your identity has been verified.
Accepted documents typically include a valid government-issued passport, national identity card or driving licence. Requirements may vary depending on your country of residence.
Most verifications are completed quickly. Processing times may vary depending on demand or if additional verification checks are required.
Expired, damaged or unreadable documents cannot be accepted. You will be asked to upload valid documents before your verification can be completed.
Verification may fail if your documents are expired, unclear or do not match your account information. In most cases, you can submit new documents. If you believe the decision is incorrect, please contact Sbarter Support.
Verified personal information generally cannot be changed directly within the app. If your circumstances change or an error has been made, contact Sbarter Support for assistance.
Update your account details where possible and contact Sbarter Support. Your new country of residence may affect game availability, identity verification requirements and access to certain platform features.
1.3 Wallet & Payments
SBT is the digital token used throughout the Sbarter platform. It is used to enter paid Challenges and Tournaments, receive your rewards, and carry out Wallet transactions.
Using a single digital token allows Sbarter to process transactions securely and consistently across different regions and supported games.
SBT operates on Solana, the most efficient blockchain selected based on Sbarter's needs (speed, scalability, low cost).
SBT can be held in compatible wallets and, where supported, transferred outside the app. Availability may vary depending on your region and the supported services.
Your Sbarter Wallet is created automatically when you register. It stores your SBT balance and allows you to buy, receive, send and withdraw tokens, subject to any applicable verification requirements.
The Wallet records your SBT balance, transaction history and wallet address. It is also used to lock pledges for active Challenges and receive earnings once events have been completed.
Your Wallet displays: your SBT balance; an estimated fiat currency equivalent; your wallet address; transaction history; pending transactions; and blockchain transaction references (where available).
Support for external wallets depends on the current version of the platform. Where available, you can transfer supported tokens between your Sbarter Wallet and a compatible external wallet.
Because your Wallet is linked to your Sbarter account, you should first attempt to recover access to your account. If you are unable to do so, contact Sbarter Support for assistance.
You can purchase SBT through your Sbarter Wallet or receive supported transfers from another compatible wallet, where available.
Available payment methods depend on your country and the payment provider. The supported options will be displayed during the purchase process.
The Swap feature allows supported digital assets to be exchanged for SBT. Before confirming a swap, you will see the exchange rate and the estimated amount of SBT you will receive.
Withdrawal options depend on the services available in your region. Where supported, you may first need to transfer your SBT to a compatible wallet or cryptocurrency exchange before converting it to local currency.
Withdrawals transfer SBT from your Sbarter Wallet to a compatible external wallet. Your account will normally need to complete KYC verification before withdrawals become available.
Common reasons include: your identity verification has not been completed; your funds are currently locked in active events; your withdrawal is still awaiting confirmation; or temporary security or compliance checks are being carried out. If the issue persists, contact Sbarter Support.
Most withdrawals are completed after the required blockchain confirmations have been received. Processing times may vary depending on network activity.
Once a blockchain transaction has been submitted, it usually cannot be cancelled.
Open your Wallet to view your complete transaction history, including deposits, withdrawals, transfers, Challenge activity, Tournament activity and other Wallet transactions.
Yes, where available, transaction records include blockchain references or links that allow you to verify them independently.
Any applicable platform or event fees are displayed before you confirm your participation.
Fees may apply depending on the payment provider, blockchain network or swap service being used. Any applicable fees will be shown before you confirm the transaction.
Yes, standard blockchain network fees may apply when transferring SBT to another wallet.
Refresh the app and check your Wallet transaction history. If the transaction is still missing after allowing sufficient time for confirmation, contact Sbarter Support and provide any relevant transaction details.
Transactions are confirmed on the blockchain and may occasionally take longer than expected during periods of high network activity.
Pending transactions are typically waiting for blockchain confirmation. In most cases, they will complete automatically once the network has processed them.
Blockchain transactions generally cannot be reversed. Always verify the destination wallet address carefully before confirming a transfer.
Refund eligibility depends on the payment method used and the circumstances of the transaction. If you believe a payment was made in error, please contact Sbarter Support.
Payment information is processed securely by authorised payment providers. Sbarter only stores the information necessary to provide its services and does not retain your complete banking or payment credentials.
Sbarter uses secure Wallet technology and platform security measures to help protect your funds. Players should also keep their account credentials secure and follow recommended security practices.
The USD value is provided as an estimated reference based on the current value of SBT. All transactions within the platform are processed using SBT.
1.4 Playing on Sbarter
A Challenge is a head-to-head match between two players. One player creates the Challenge by selecting the game, match settings and pledge amount. Another player accepts it, both players compete in the game itself, then submit the result through the Sbarter app.
Yes, simply create a private challenge and share the invitation link with your friend.
A private challenge is only available to players who receive an invitation link from the creator. Unlike public challenges, it does not appear in the public challenge list.
Go to the home screen, select your game, choose the match settings, set the pledge amount and publish the Challenge. Once another eligible player accepts it, you can begin the match.
A pledge is the amount each player commits when entering a Challenge. It is securely locked until the Challenge has been completed, cancelled or declared void.
This depends on the game and event settings. Some Challenges may allow zero-pledge play, while others require both players to commit a pledge.
No, once a Challenge has been published, the pledge amount cannot normally be changed. If the Challenge has not yet been accepted, you can cancel it and create a new one.
Yes, public challenges are listed when you click on the controller icon within the app, where you can browse available events and join those you are eligible for.
Yes, the Sbarter app includes filters to help you find challenges based on the game, pledge amount, or other available criteria.
Minimum and maximum pledge amounts vary depending on the game, your region and the platform rules that apply to that event.
Players can set personal spending limits. In addition, certain games or regions may enforce minimum or maximum pledge limits.
Your pledge remains locked until the Challenge has been completed, cancelled or voided. This ensures both players compete under the agreed conditions before funds are released.
Open the Challenge, review the details and select 'Accept'. The app will verify your eligibility and available balance before locking your pledge and confirming your participation.
Common reasons include: insufficient Wallet balance; spending limits have been reached; regional restrictions; the Challenge has already been accepted; or the Challenge has expired.
Provided you have sufficient available funds and can complete each Challenge within its required time limit, you can accept or create multiple Challenges at once. However, you cannot play one Challenge while you are currently competing in another.
Players can accept multiple challenges, but they can only play one challenge at a time. There is no limit to the number of challenges a player can have against the same opponent.
No, once a Challenge has started, it should be completed according to the event rules and within the specified time limits.
You can normally cancel a Challenge before it has been accepted. Once another player has accepted, cancellation is only possible before both players confirm they are ready to begin, where permitted by the event rules.
Some settings may be editable before another player accepts the Challenge. Once the Challenge is ready to begin, it can no longer be modified.
The Challenge will automatically expire once its availability period ends, and any locked pledge will be returned to your Wallet.
Spectator features depend on the supported game and platform. Where available, you may be able to watch matches using the game's built-in spectator or viewing tools, but not in the actual Sbarter app.
A Tournament is a structured competition involving multiple players competing across one or more rounds until a winner is determined.
Tournament formats, schedules, entry requirements and prize structures vary depending on the organiser and the game being played. Details are displayed on each Tournament page before you register.
Official Tournaments may be created by approved Tournament Organizers or participating game publishers, depending on the platform configuration.
Open the Tournament page, review the eligibility requirements and register before the registration deadline.
Yes, some tournaments are free to enter, while others require an entry fee or pledge.
Minimum and maximum pledge or entry amounts vary depending on the game, event type and your region.

Supported formats currently include Single Elimination Bracket and may soon include Double Elimination Bracket, Round Robin, and other competition structures supported by Sbarter.
Yes, every Tournament displays its own registration deadline.
Where required, the Tournament page will display the check-in period before matches begin.
Brackets are usually published after registration closes and the Tournament is ready to begin.

Round time limits vary by Tournament and are displayed in the event details.
This depends on the Tournament format, the number of participants and the scheduling chosen by the organiser.
Yes, tournament organisers can customize supported tournament settings, including rules, formats and prize structures within the options available on the platform.
If you fail to play within the required time, you may forfeit the match in accordance with the Tournament rules.

Tournament prizes are distributed after the Tournament has been completed and the results have been confirmed.

Once both players are ready, launch the game using the agreed platform, play the match according to the Challenge rules, then return to the Sbarter app to submit the result.
Yes, individual games may have their own rules, match settings and restrictions. Always review the Challenge details before starting your match.
Once the match ends, both players submit their results independently through the Sbarter app. If both submissions match, the Challenge is completed automatically and any earnings are processed.
Results are determined using both players' submissions together with any validation methods that apply to the event.
Once the result has been confirmed and any required validation or processing has been completed, your earnings will be credited to your Wallet.
After the result has been confirmed, the winner receives the combined pledges, minus any applicable protocol fees.
Payouts may temporarily show as pending while the underlying blockchain transaction or internal processing is being completed.
1.5 Results & Disputes
Once your match has finished, return to the Challenge Lobby and record the outcome. Both players submit their results independently. If both submissions match, the Challenge is completed automatically and any earnings are processed.
If both players submit different outcomes, Sbarter allows them to review and resubmit the result where applicable. If an agreement cannot be reached, the match may proceed to the dispute process or be declared void in accordance with the event rules.
If the submission can still be edited, follow the in-app instructions to correct it. If the result has already been finalised, contact Sbarter Support as soon as possible.
For supported games, Sbarter can retrieve match results automatically through game integrated systems. When an automated result is available, it will be displayed in the Challenge Lobby and used to complete the Challenge. If the result cannot be retrieved automatically or requires verification, players may be asked to submit or confirm the outcome manually.
If requested, upload any relevant evidence such as screenshots, gameplay recordings, or other supporting material through the dispute process in the app or as instructed by Sbarter Support.
Disputes are reviewed according to Sbarter's dispute procedures. Decisions are based on the available evidence, platform records and the applicable event rules.
The dispute window depends on the event rules. If you believe a result is incorrect, you should submit your dispute as soon as possible before the dispute period expires.
In exceptional circumstances, a completed result may be reviewed if there is compelling evidence that it was recorded incorrectly or obtained unfairly.
If the event rules allow a replay, both players may be instructed to replay the match. Otherwise, the dispute will continue through Sbarter's standard review process.
A Non-Validated Event is one where the match result cannot be confirmed automatically and requires additional review before it can be finalised.
Report the issue immediately through the app and provide any supporting evidence you have available. Sbarter will review the evidence before confirming the final result.
Wait for the result submission period to end or follow the dispute process if prompted. Avoid contacting your opponent outside the platform to resolve the issue.
Use the in-app dispute process and submit any evidence that supports your claim. With the help of the Community Dispute Management system, the available information will be reviewed before making a final decision.
Contact Sbarter Support immediately and provide the match details together with any evidence showing the correct result.
If your opponent fails to play within the required timeframe, they may forfeit the match in accordance with the Challenge or Tournament rules.
If neither player completes the required actions within the permitted time, the event may be cancelled or declared void. Any locked pledges will then be handled according to the applicable event rules.
You may be able to cancel your participation before the Challenge officially begins, depending on the event rules. Once the match has started, the standard cancellation rules apply.
Try to reconnect and continue the match where possible. If the issue prevents the match from being completed, follow the instructions provided in the app or contact Sbarter Support.
The outcome depends on the event rules. A player who disconnects may forfeit the match, or the event may be cancelled or replayed where appropriate.
Both players should attempt to restart the game or reconnect. If the match cannot continue, the event will be resolved according to the applicable Challenge or Tournament rules.
Technical interruptions are assessed according to the event rules. Depending on the circumstances, the match may continue, be replayed, result in a forfeit or be declared void.
If the game servers become unavailable, wait a few moments and try to reconnect. If the match cannot be completed, follow the instructions provided by Sbarter or contact Support.
Matches may be declared void if the result cannot be verified, technical issues prevent completion or the event rules require the match to be cancelled.
Where an appeals process is available, you will be informed how to request a review. Appeals should include any additional evidence that was not available during the original dispute review.
1.6 Rankings & Reputation
Your Integrity Score reflects how reliably and fairly you participate on the Sbarter platform. It encourages positive behaviour, fair competition and consistent participation in Challenges and Tournaments.

ELO is Sbarter's player skill rating system. Players begin with a default rating and gain or lose points based on their performance against other rated opponents. Not every Challenge or Tournament will necessarily affect your ELO rating, as this depends on the specific event.
Leaderboards allow players to compare their competitive performance with others on the platform. Rankings are based on eligible competitive results and may vary by game, season or competition.
Some leaderboards may offer rewards, prizes or recognition for top-performing players. Any available rewards will be clearly displayed within the relevant leaderboard or competition.
Eligible rated Challenges and Tournaments may contribute to your leaderboard position. Whether an event affects your ranking depends on its rules and the ranking system being used.
1.7 Account & Privacy
If you wish to use Sbarter again after closing your account, contact Sbarter Support. Whether a new account can be created depends on the reason your previous account was closed and any applicable platform policies.

1.8 Trust & Safety
Sbarter uses a combination of secure authentication, account verification and continuous monitoring to help protect player accounts from unauthorised access. Additional security features are available on supported devices to further strengthen account protection.
You can improve your account security by: using a strong and unique password; never sharing your login credentials; enabling available security features such as biometric login or a PIN; keeping your device and the Sbarter app up to date; and being cautious of phishing attempts and suspicious links.
Your account security settings allow you to manage your password, PIN and biometric login preferences. Certain sensitive actions, such as withdrawals or account changes, may require additional verification.
Your PIN provides an additional layer of protection for important account and Wallet actions. It helps prevent unauthorized access if someone gains temporary access to your device.
This depends on your device, region and account settings. Sbarter may require a PIN or additional authentication for certain features or sensitive actions.
If your device supports biometric authentication, you can use your fingerprint or facial recognition to sign in more quickly and securely instead of entering your password each time.
Where available, Sbarter may offer additional authentication methods to provide an extra layer of protection for your account.
No, Sbarter does not require or store your game account password. You should never share your Sbarter credentials with anyone.
Where applicable, information regarding independent smart contract security audits will be published by Sbarter through its official channels.
Sensitive personal information is not stored directly on the public blockchain. Personal data is handled securely in accordance with Sbarter's security standards and Privacy Policy.
Temporary blockchain network issues may delay transactions or Wallet activity. Your assets remain recorded on the blockchain, and services will resume once the network is operating normally.
Sbarter will only contact you through its official communication channels. We will never ask for your password, PIN, verification codes or recovery information. If you receive a suspicious message claiming to be from Sbarter, do not respond and report it immediately.

1.10 Help & Technical Support
Sbarter supports selected iOS, Android and other compatible platforms, however games can be played on mobile devices, personal computers, consoles, or other devices depending on the game.

Yes, you can sign in to your Sbarter account on multiple supported devices. For security reasons, additional verification may be required when logging in from a new device.

First check that: notifications are enabled within the Sbarter app; notifications are enabled in your device settings; your internet connection is active; and you are using the latest version of the app. If notifications are still not arriving, contact Sbarter Support.
Performance issues may be caused by: a slow or unstable internet connection; temporary platform maintenance; high server demand; limited device performance; or running an outdated version of the app. Updating the app and using a stable internet connection usually resolves most issues.
A stable broadband or mobile data connection is recommended. The exact connection requirements depend primarily on the game you are playing rather than the Sbarter platform itself.

If a result is disputed, Sbarter follows its dispute resolution process. Players may be asked to provide evidence, and the available information is reviewed before a final decision is made in accordance with the event rules.

3.1 Understanding the Protocol
Sbarter's vision is to create a trusted platform where skill-based gaming is competitive, fair and secure. By bringing together players, creators and game publishers, Sbarter aims to make organized competitive gaming more accessible while giving players greater control over how they compete.
Sbarter partners with Video Game Publishers to bring competitive play to their games through a secure and transparent ecosystem. Rather than replacing a game's existing infrastructure, Sbarter provides a complementary layer that enables Challenges, Tournaments, prize distribution and dispute management. Publishers retain ownership and control of their games, while Sbarter provides the technology and services required to organize skill-based competitive events.
Sbarter provides publishers with a competitive gaming protocol that supports Challenges, Tournaments, dispute resolution, secure prize distribution, and player engagement. Publishers can choose the level of integration that best suits their game, from Community Dispute Management to full API integration.
Partnering with Sbarter allows publishers to increase player engagement through organized always on competitive play without needing to build tournament infrastructure themselves. Publishers can also gain valuable gameplay insights, promote official competitions, strengthen community retention, and receive Oracle Fees for every match result confirmed using API-validated game data.
Sbarter is designed primarily for multiplayer games where player skill determines the outcome.
Yes, Sbarter supports both highly competitive esports titles and more casual multiplayer games, provided they meet the platform's technical and operational requirements. The available event formats may vary depending on the game's capabilities and the publisher's preferred integration model.
Yes, Sbarter welcomes partnerships with both independent developers and established publishers. Each application is assessed individually based on the game's suitability, technical compatibility and the potential value it brings to the Sbarter ecosystem.
Yes, publishers may participate through Sbarter's Community Dispute Management model, where players submit match results manually and disputes are resolved through the platform's dispute process. Publishers can later upgrade to API integration if they wish to automate result validation and unlock additional features.
Sbarter is designed for simple integration with existing multiplayer games. We require a light API integration, publishers simply expose the required match and player data through agreed interfaces. The core gameplay experience and game mechanics remain unchanged.
No, Sbarter does not charge publishers simply to integrate with the protocol. Integration requirements and any commercial arrangements are discussed during the partnership process and depend on the scope of the collaboration.
Yes, publishers can organize official Challenges and Tournaments, sponsor community events, provide prizes and work with creators to engage their player communities. They also have access to publisher tools that help monitor and manage official competitions.
3.2 Integration Options
The resources required depend on your game's existing infrastructure. Publishers typically need technical personnel who can work with Sbarter to configure API endpoints, authentication, result validation and any required event management features.
Integration timelines vary depending on the complexity of your game's systems and the level of functionality being implemented. During onboarding, Sbarter works with your technical team to agree on a suitable integration plan and estimated delivery schedule.
With API integration, Sbarter receives authorized match data directly from the game's systems. This allows eligible event results to be validated automatically, reducing manual submissions, minimizing disputes and enabling faster prize distribution.
Sbarter works closely with publishers to maintain compatibility whenever game updates or API changes are introduced. Where necessary, both parties coordinate testing and deployment to minimize disruption to live events.
Yes, Sbarter supports testing in development before going live. This allows both teams to validate functionality, resolve technical issues and ensure a smooth launch.
If an API interruption prevents automatic result validation, Sbarter may temporarily use alternative validation methods, including Community Dispute Management where appropriate. Once the API becomes available again, normal automated validation resumes.
3.3 The Publishers Portal
The Publishers Portal is Sbarter's dedicated management interface for Video Game Publishers. It provides publishers with the tools needed to manage supported games, monitor competitive activity, oversee integrations and access operational and performance data from a single platform.
Access is provided after your publisher partnership has been approved and onboarding is complete. Authorized users receive secure login credentials and can access the portal using their assigned permissions.

3.4 Oracle Fee & Monetization
The Oracle Fee is a payment made by Sbarter to participating Video Game Publishers for API-validated events. It compensates publishers for securely validating match results through their official game systems and supporting trusted competitive play on the platform.
The Oracle Fee recognizes the value publishers provide by supplying trusted match validation through their game infrastructure. Automated validation improves event integrity, reduces disputes and creates a more seamless experience for players and organizers.
The Oracle Fee is calculated according to the commercial agreement between Sbarter and the publisher. The calculation may consider factors such as the number of eligible API-validated events, platform usage and other agreed partnership terms.
Oracle Fees are paid according to the agreed commercial schedule established during the partnership. Payment frequency, reporting and settlement methods are defined as part of the publisher agreement.
Oracle Fees apply only to eligible events where official API integration is used to validate match results. The specific event types covered are determined by the publisher's integration model and partnership agreement.
No, the Community Dispute Management events rely on player submissions and dispute resolution rather than automated game validation. As no publisher API is used to validate the result, Oracle Fees do not apply to these events.
No, receiving an Oracle Fee reflects a commercial relationship for providing match validation services. It does not imply that the publisher endorses Sbarter beyond the scope of the agreed partnership.
Yes, publishers can opt out of receiving Oracle Fees. A publisher may choose an alternative commercial structure if mutually agreed during the partnership process.
Yes, publishers may choose to organize official competitions, sponsor events or develop commercial initiatives through Sbarter, subject to the agreed partnership terms and applicable laws and regulations.

3.5 Data & Compliance

Personal data is shared only where required and in accordance with applicable privacy laws.

Sbarter operates in accordance with the legal and regulatory requirements of each supported jurisdiction. Platform features, supported games and available services may differ depending on local laws, licensing requirements and publisher agreements.
Integration does not automatically create additional legal liability beyond the responsibilities defined in the partnership agreement. Each party remains responsible for complying with its own legal, regulatory and contractual obligations.
Sbarter applies security and privacy measures designed to protect player information throughout the platform. Personal data is processed in accordance with applicable data protection laws and is only shared where necessary to provide the agreed services.
Publishers only receive access to the information required for the agreed integration or operational purposes. Personal information is not shared unless there is a legitimate legal, contractual or operational basis for doing so.
Where consent is required, Sbarter obtains and manages it in accordance with applicable privacy legislation. Players are informed about how their information is used, and their data is processed only for authorized purposes.
Sbarter uses secure authentication, encrypted communication channels and controlled access mechanisms to protect data exchanged between the platform and publisher systems. Security practices are reviewed as part of the integration process.
If applicable laws or regulatory requirements change, Sbarter works with its publishing partners to implement any necessary operational or technical updates. Publishers are kept informed of changes that may affect their integration or ongoing partnership.

Publishers are generally asked to provide information about their game, technical contacts, available APIs, supported platforms and any operational requirements. Additional commercial or compliance documentation may also be requested depending on the partnership.
The onboarding timeline depends on the chosen integration model and the complexity of the game. Community Dispute Management can typically be introduced more quickly, while full API integration may require additional planning, development and testing.
