The Nova88 Story — From IBCBET to Today

Two decades of Asian betting heritage, distilled into one trusted brand.

2004 — IBCBET launches. Founded as IBC Bet (later IBCBET), our parent group pioneered /asian-handicap/ betting and SABA Sports infrastructure. We became the go-to sportsbook for Malaysian, Thai and Indonesian punters during a time when online betting was still in its infancy.

2010s — Platform expansion. Live casino partnerships with Evolution Gaming, Playtech and SA Gaming. Slot integration with Pragmatic Play, PG Soft and Jili. The brand expanded across South-East Asia with localized currencies, languages and /payment/ methods. Read the full evolution story.

2020 — The Nova88 rebrand. IBCBET was retired in favour of Nova88 — a fresher identity for a new generation of mobile-first players. The platform was rebuilt from scratch with HTML5, biometric /login/, native iOS and Android apps, and a unified MYR wallet for Malaysian members. Read the rebrand explainer.

2023-2024 — Inter Milan & Sevilla FC. Nova88 became the Official Asian Betting Partner of Inter Milan (2023-2024) and Sevilla FC (2023-2024). Partnerships that put our gold logo on the European football stage and signalled our commitment to the world's biggest sport.

2024-2026 — Aston Villa. Our current flagship partnership: Official Asian Betting Partner of Aston Villa, a club playing at the highest levels of English Premier League football. Visit Villa Park and you'll see the Nova88 brand alongside global names.

2025 — EGR shortlisting. Recognized at the EGR Awards 2025 with two shortlistings: CRM Campaign of the Year and Best Operator. Industry recognition that our 20-year evolution is bearing fruit.
