What is responsible gaming and why does it matter?

Responsible gaming means enjoying gaming in a way that doesn't negatively impact other areas of your life. 98bdt firmly believes that building healthy gaming habits is every player's responsibility — and ours too.

Online gaming is a great form of entertainment — but when it becomes an addiction, it can seriously affect your family, work, and finances. Many people in Bangladesh enjoy online gaming, but without boundaries, things can quickly spiral out of control.

98bdt's responsible gaming policy is built on one belief: we want you to enjoy this for the long haul — not walk away after one big loss. That's why we offer a range of protective tools and guidelines to keep you on the right track.

Core Principles of Responsible Gaming

  • Play for Fun: See gaming as entertainment, not a source of income.
  • Set a Budget: Decide in advance how much you are willing to spend.
  • Respect Your Time Limits: Build the habit of not playing beyond a set amount of time each day.
  • Accept Your Losses: Don't chase your losses by placing bigger bets.
  • Take a Break: Stop playing if you feel tired or mentally drained.
  • Spend Time With Family: Don't let gaming get in the way of your family relationships.
Remember: Gaming should always be on your terms. You control the game — it doesn't control you. If you feel like you're losing that control, contact our support team right away.

When should you be concerned?

Certain behaviors are a sign that your gaming habits may be heading in a harmful direction. Ask yourself these questions regularly and answer honestly. Catching the problem early makes it much easier to regain control.

  • You are repeatedly going over your set budget.
  • You are placing larger bets out of frustration or anger after a loss.
  • You are hiding your gaming from family or friends.
  • Gaming is interfering with your sleep, eating, or work.
  • You feel restless or irritable when you're away from gaming.

Do I frequently spend more than my set budget?
Do you feel down or restless when you're not playing?
Am I Chasing Losses After a Loss?
Is my family worried about my gaming?
Is your focus at work or school starting to slip?

98bdt Responsible Gaming Safeguards

We back responsible gaming with action, not just words

Deposit Limit Settings

You can set your own maximum daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Once a limit is in place, it cannot be exceeded — your strongest financial safety net.

Session Time Limit

Decide in advance the maximum time you will spend playing each day. Once that limit is reached, the platform will automatically send an alert and suggest ending the session.

Cooling-Off Period

If stress or emotions are making it hard to step away, you can temporarily suspend your account for a set period. Breaks are available from 24 hours up to 30 days.

Self-Exclusion Feature

If you feel gaming is becoming difficult to control, you can use the self-exclusion option through the support team to permanently close your account for a period of 6 months to 5 years.

Gaming History Report

Your full gaming history, total spending, and win/loss record are available to view at any time. Reviewing your own habits makes it easier to make informed decisions.

Minor Protection

Anyone under 18 is strictly prohibited from creating an account. Age verification is mandatory during registration. A PIN lock is also available to protect younger members of your household.

Recognize the Warning Signs

Early signs of addiction can be subtle. If you notice these signs in yourself or someone close to you, act quickly.

  • You keep playing to recover lost money and cannot stop.
  • You are taking out loans or borrowing money from family to fund your gaming.
  • It's becoming harder to concentrate on work, studies, or relationships.
  • When you're not gaming, you feel anxious, irritable, or have trouble sleeping.
  • You are being dishonest with family or friends about your gaming.
  • You are using gaming to escape stress or emotional pain.
  • You're skipping meals or sleep to spend more time gaming.

Get Started with Responsible Gaming — 5 Simple Steps

Follow these steps for a safe and enjoyable gaming experience at 98bdt.

1
Create a Monthly Budget

Set a monthly limit on how much you can spend on gaming. It should be a small portion of your entertainment budget — a limited share of what remains after covering essential expenses.

2
Set a Deposit Limit

Log in to your account and set daily and monthly deposit limits from Settings. Your budget will then be managed automatically.

3
Set a daily playtime limit

Use the session time limit feature. Aim to play no more than 1-2 hours per day and keep reminders turned on.

4
Assess yourself regularly

Review your gaming history report once a week. Check your total spending, time, and behavior — and make adjustments right away if needed.

5
Seek Help When You Need It

If you're struggling, don't wait — reach out to our support team. Asking for help isn't weakness; it takes courage and good judgment.

Guidelines for Parents

If there are minors in your household, ensuring safe access to online gaming platforms is a parental responsibility. 98bdt strictly prohibits accounts for anyone under 18, but vigilance on the family's part is equally important.

  • Use parental control software on computers and mobile devices.
  • Use a strong password on your gaming account and keep it away from children.
  • Have an open conversation with your children about the risks of online gaming.
  • If you notice anything suspicious, report it to our support team immediately.
Important: If your child accidentally creates an account, immediately [email protected]to email us. We'll close the account promptly.

Mental Health & Gaming

People often turn to gaming to escape stress, loneliness, or frustration. That's understandable, but gaming isn't a solution to those problems. If underlying mental health issues are driving your play, speaking with a mental health professional will be far more effective.

98bdt believes a healthy mind leads to healthy gaming. We want you to be happy — not just in the game, but in every part of your life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About Responsible Gaming

Log in to your account and go to "Account Settings". Under the "Responsible Gaming" section, you can set daily, weekly, and monthly deposit limits. Decreases take effect immediately, but increases require a 7-day waiting period.

Yes, but your account cannot be reactivated before the set period ends. For self-exclusion periods of 6 months or more, contact the support team once the period expires to have your account reactivated.

No, not at all. Age verification is mandatory when registering at 98bdt. Any account opened by someone under 18 is immediately cancelled, along with all associated transactions.

Reach out to our support team first — we will point you in the right direction. You can also contact Kaan Pete Roi (01779-554391) or the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) for mental health support in Bangladesh.

A cooling-off period is a short-term break (24 hours to 30 days) — use it when you just need to pause. Self-exclusion is longer-term (6 months to 5 years) and is intended for serious addiction cases. In both cases, your account cannot be reactivated before the period ends.

Set a session reminder interval in Settings (e.g., every 30 or 60 minutes) and a pop-up will appear showing how long you've been playing and your total wins and losses. This keeps you aware and helps you decide when to stop.
