What Is Responsible Gaming and Why It Matters
Responsible Gaming means enjoying betting or gaming as a healthy form of entertainment — where you stay in full control of your time, money, and mental well-being. b98 believes that real enjoyment only comes when players choose to play voluntarily, consciously, and within defined limits.
Many people in Bangladesh see online betting as a way to earn extra income — this is a misconception. Betting at b98 is purely for entertainment, not a solution to financial problems. The core principles of responsible gaming are:
- Making Informed Decisions: Decide in advance how much time and money you're willing to spend
- Entertainment-first mindset: There are no guaranteed wins — always keep that in mind
- Staying Within Limits: Never spend more than your set budget
- Taking a Break: Take regular breaks and keep a clear head
- Seeking Help: If something feels wrong, get help right away — no need to feel embarrassed
All responsible gaming features on b98 are completely free. Activate them anytime from your settings.
We know that even something fun can turn into a habit over time. That's why b98 has had strong player protection measures in place from day one. Your wellbeing is what success looks like to us.

b98's Safety Tools
B98 has built several powerful tools to support responsible gaming. You can activate and manage each one entirely on your own.
Set your own maximum daily, weekly, or monthly deposit amount. Limit decreases take effect immediately; increases take 72 hours to kick in.
Set how long you want to spend on the platform each day. When your time is up, the system will log you out automatically.
Temporarily pause your account for 1 day to 6 weeks. You won't be able to log in during the break, but your account will remain active.
Close your account for anywhere from 6 months to permanently. Any attempt to open a new account during the self-exclusion period will be blocked.
Once losses exceed a set amount, the system automatically stops betting activity. This prevents further losses after a losing streak.
You'll receive an SMS/in-app notification when you reach 80% of your set limit. Stay aware and avoid impulsive decisions.
Setting Betting Limits — Where to Start
Setting limits doesn't mean playing less — it means playing smarter and keeping the fun going for longer. Follow the steps below:
Factor in your income and essential expenses to decide how much you can comfortably spend on entertainment each month.
Go to "Deposit Limit" in your account settings and set your daily and monthly limits.
Set a daily cap on how long you play. Try to avoid playing for more than 2 hours in a single session.
Set an automatic stop once you've hit a certain loss amount — it keeps emotions from driving you to bet more than you intended.
Review your betting history every month. If your spending looks like it's creeping up, lower your limits.
| Limit Type | Minimum | Maximum | Time to Take Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Daily Deposit | ৳500 | Unlimited | Immediate (for reductions) |
| Weekly Deposit | ৳1,000 | Unlimited | Immediate (for reductions) |
| Monthly Deposit | ৳2,000 | Unlimited | Immediate (for reductions) |
| Session Time | 30 Minutes | 12 Hours | Immediate |
| Daily Loss Limit | ৳500 | Unlimited | Immediate |

Choosing permanent self-exclusion means your account can never be reactivated. Please think it through carefully before making this decision. If you need to talk it over, we're here.

- Suspicious accounts are automatically flagged for review
- If a family member uses an account on behalf of a minor, it will be suspended immediately
Advice for Family Members:
