Gaming is for enjoyment, not stress. Use 88bb's responsible gaming tools and guidelines to protect yourself and your family.
Responsible gaming means keeping gaming where it belongs — as entertainment, not a source of financial stress, emotional turmoil, or relationship strain. 88bb believes every member plays to enjoy themselves, not under pressure to win.
88bb's responsible gaming tools put you in control — how much you deposit, how long you play, and when to take a break. Using these features isn't a sign of weakness; it's the smart approach.
88bb is strictly for users aged 18 and above. Access by minors is completely prohibited. Never make gaming decisions in an emotional state — set your limits with a clear head.
Take Control of Your Own Gaming Experience
Set a maximum deposit limit — daily, weekly, or monthly. Once set, the limit cannot be increased until the specified period has passed, though it can be lowered at any time.
Decide in advance how much time you want to spend on the platform each day. Once that time is up, your session will end automatically.
Take a temporary break of anywhere from 1 day to 6 weeks. Deposits and betting are paused during this time. The best way to reset and refresh.
If you feel you need a longer break, you can close your account for 3 months, 6 months, or permanently. During this period, no logins or transactions will be possible.
A message will appear on screen every 30, 60, or 90 minutes reminding you how long you've been playing. It keeps you aware of the time.
Your session ends automatically once you hit a set loss amount — preventing impulsive chasing bets to recover losses.
88bb's protection tools are straightforward to use and can be adjusted at any time from your account settings.
Log in to 88bb and click the profile icon in the top-right corner.
Go to Settings and select the "Responsible Gaming" option.
Choose what you need — deposit limit, time limit, or cooling-off — then enter your preferred amount.
Confirm with your OTP or password. The limit takes effect immediately.
If you need help navigating any settings, Bengali-speaking agents are available via live chat.
Ask yourself — how many of the following habits apply to you?
These Signs Mean It's Time to Seek Help
You keep depositing beyond your set budget, or you're using money meant for other expenses on gaming.
After a loss, you find yourself unable to stop — continuing to bet in an attempt to win your money back.
You lose track of how long you've been gaming and start missing sleep or meals.
You're being dishonest with family or friends about your gaming, or withdrawing from them.
You react with unusual anger or distress after a loss, or feel uncomfortable whenever you're not gaming.
You are borrowing money or using credit to fund your gaming.
If you notice one or more of these signs in yourself, use 88bb's responsible gaming tools or reach out to our help center. Seeking help isn't a weakness — taking care of yourself is the smart move.
88bb's deposit limit feature is the most powerful responsible gaming tool available. You decide the maximum amount you can deposit per day, week, or month — and once set, it cannot simply be raised on demand. A defined cooling period must pass before any increase takes effect.
Lowering your limit, on the other hand, can be done instantly at any time — protecting you from the temptation to raise it on a whim. This feature is especially useful for players who want to stay disciplined with their budget.
Tip: Set your monthly gaming budget as a portion of your total income that, if lost, would have no impact on your daily life. Use that amount as your monthly limit.
Sometimes you need a longer break. 88bb's self-exclusion feature lets you block your own access to the account — for three months, six months, or permanently. During this time, logging in will not be possible under any circumstances.
Activating self-exclusion is straightforward — but lifting it is intentionally made a little harder. That's by design, because this break needs to be a real break. To reactivate your account after the exclusion period ends, you'll need to contact support.
Age verification is mandatory during the 88bb registration process. That said, adults in the household can take additional steps themselves. If children or teenagers share the same device, make sure to log out after every session and never share your password.
Keeping biometric login enabled on the 88bb app makes unauthorized access much harder. These simple precautions also help keep minors away from online gaming.
For Parents: Use parental control software to manage your child's internet access. 88bb is for adults only — and ensuring that is a responsibility parents share.
If gaming concerns are becoming a real problem, you don't have to face it alone. 88bb's responsible gaming team speaks Bengali and provides support in complete confidence. Reach out directly via live chat or email.
If you believe a family member is struggling with a gaming problem, you can reach out to us on their behalf. We can advise you on how to support them.
Remember, reaching out about responsible gaming does not mean your account will be closed. We'll talk it through, help you find the right tools, and support you in making the best decision for yourself.
There are still many misconceptions about online gaming in Bangladesh. Some see it as an easy way to make money; others consider any time spent on it a waste. Neither view is entirely accurate. At 88bb, gaming is entertainment — just like watching a film or playing cricket. The difference is that money is involved, which makes awareness all the more important.
Responsible gaming has been a core value at 88bb from the very beginning — not simply to meet licensing requirements. We believe that when a member genuinely enjoys gaming without it negatively affecting their life, they'll stay with us for the long term. A member's wellbeing and 88bb's long-term interests point in exactly the same direction.
Many people ask: does responsible gaming simply mean playing less? Not at all. It means understanding your own situation and playing within it. Someone who spends 500 BDT a month and enjoys an hour of play is a responsible gamer — and so is someone who spends 1,000 BDT, as long as it's within their means and not affecting other areas of their life. Responsible gaming has no fixed BDT amount — it depends entirely on your personal financial and mental wellbeing.
Being unable to stop after a loss is one of the biggest problems in gaming. Psychologists call it "chase behavior" — an overwhelming urge to recover losses. In this state, people lose rational judgment and take on greater and greater risk. 88bb's cooling-off and loss limit features step in at exactly this moment to prevent impulsive decisions.
Family plays an important role too. If someone close to you seems to be behaving unusually around gaming, speak to them directly and with empathy. Instead of placing blame, let them know you're concerned. Sometimes a single honest conversation with someone you care about is all it takes to make a real difference.
There are multiple ways to reach 88bb's responsible gaming team. Live chat is the fastest — a Bengali-speaking agent typically responds within 90 seconds. Email is available for more detailed guidance. All communication is kept strictly confidential.
One final thought: taking a break from gaming doesn't mean giving it up for good. Many players who return after a cooling-off period find they enjoy it in a more controlled way. Trust yourself, respect your limits, and keep gaming what it should be — an enjoyable part of life, not a burden.
