Important Warning: Online gaming can be addictive. Never chase your losses. Gaming is entertainment only — not a source of income. If you're struggling to control your play, seek help immediately.

What Is Responsible Gaming and Why It Matters

At 8r88, we believe online gaming is a form of entertainment — much like watching a film or hanging out with friends. But as with any leisure activity, knowing your limits matters. Responsible gaming means enjoying the experience while staying fully in control of your time, money, and mental well-being.

Online gaming is growing fast in Bangladesh, with players of all ages spending time on platforms like 8r88. For most, it stays fun — but for some, it can become a problem. Our responsible gaming guidelines are here to help keep it that way.

Responsible gaming at 8r88 is more than a policy — it's a commitment to every one of our members. We want you to enjoy gaming for the long haul, without it ever affecting your family, relationships, or financial well-being.

Keep in Mind: Responsible gaming doesn't mean stopping — it means playing smarter and enjoying it more.

On this page, we'll walk you through how to protect yourself, which warning signs to look out for, and what safeguards 8r88 offers. Read through the full guide carefully — it could make a real difference for you and the people you care about.

How to Build Healthy Gaming Habits

Every responsible gamer builds good habits. Follow these guidelines to play responsibly on 8r88:

  • Set a Budget: Set a weekly or monthly budget for your gaming spend before you start — and stick to it, even when you feel like "just a little more" would turn things around.
  • Set a Time Limit: Decide how long you'll play each day or week. Use an alarm or timer. Don't let gaming crowd out other important commitments.
  • Don't bet on impulse: Avoid gaming when you are angry, stressed, or under the influence of drugs or alcohol. A clear head leads to better decisions.
  • Don't Chase Your Losses: This is the most dangerous habit. Remember — every round is independent. A previous loss has no bearing on what comes next.
  • Take Regular Breaks: Take regular breaks instead of playing non-stop. Step away for at least 10 minutes every hour.
  • Spend Time With Family & Friends: Make sure gaming isn't your only social activity. Maintain healthy relationships.

From your 8r88 account settings, you can set your own daily and weekly deposit limits as well as session time limits.

Warning Signs of Problem Gaming

It's not always easy to notice when gaming starts to get out of hand. Watch out for these warning signs:

Signs Description
Exceeding Your Budget You keep spending beyond your set budget and find yourself unable to stop.
Urge to Chase Losses You are placing bigger bets after a loss to try to win back what you have lost.
Dishonesty You're hiding the amount you play or how much you spend from family or friends.
Neglecting Relationships Gaming is causing you to neglect family, friends, or work.
Gambling on borrowed money You are taking out loans or dipping into savings to fund your gaming.
Emotional Distress You feel irritable, anxious, or restless when you're unable to play.
Sleep & Eating Issues Gaming is disrupting your sleep, eating habits, or daily routine.

If you recognise 3 or more of the signs above, don't wait — reach out for help. It's not a sign of weakness; it takes courage to know yourself.

8r88 Responsible Gaming Tools

8r88 helps you stay in control of your gaming. The following tools are available free of charge to all members on our platform:

  • 1
    Deposit Limit

    Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit that works for you. Limits take effect immediately once set. Lowering a limit is instant, but increasing one requires a 24-hour waiting period.

  • 2
    Session Time Limit

    Set a daily time limit for how long you use the platform. Once that limit is reached, the platform will automatically log you out.

  • 3
    Cooling-Off Period

    Take a temporary break lasting anywhere from 1 day to 6 weeks. Your account remains active during this time, but you will not be able to place any bets. Use it as a chance to recharge.

  • 4
    Self-Exclusion

    Activate self-exclusion for a period of 6 months to 5 years. During this time, your account will be fully closed and you will not receive any marketing communications. Your account cannot be reopened while self-exclusion is active.

  • 5
    Reality Check

    At regular intervals, you'll receive a reminder showing how long you've been playing and whether you're up or down. It keeps you grounded in reality.

  • 6
    Loss Limit

    Set a limit on how much you can lose within a given period before your gaming session automatically stops. This protects you from significant losses.

All these tools can be activated from the "Responsible Gaming" section in your 8r88 account settings. If you need assistance, reach out to us via live chat.

Protection for Minors

8r88 strictly prohibits account registration by anyone under the age of 18. We take the following measures:

  • Age is verified at registration, and KYC documents may be requested where necessary.
  • Suspicious accounts are suspended immediately.
  • Parents should use parental control software on any device their children have access to.
  • Never leave your personal login details anywhere a child can access them.

If you suspect a minor is using 8r88, contact our support team immediately. We will take swift action.

Use trusted parental control software and keep your devices locked with a secure password.

Responsible Gaming About Relationships

No. When self-exclusion is active, your account balance remains safe. Once the exclusion period ends, you can withdraw as normal. However, no bets or deposits can be placed while exclusion is in effect.

Lowering a limit takes effect immediately. Requests to increase a limit require a 24-hour waiting period — this is intentional, to prevent impulsive overspending in the heat of the moment.

Yes. The 8r88 support team offers completely free advice and assistance. We also encourage you to talk to a family member or someone you trust — social support is often the most effective help.

A cooling-off period is a temporary break (from 1 day up to 6 weeks) — your account reactivates automatically once it expires. Self-exclusion is longer-term (6 months to 5 years) and cannot be reversed before the period ends.

Contact our support team right away. We will investigate the account and take the necessary action. After that, change your password and enable parental controls on your device.
