Responsible Gaming at dhakabet
Gambling is meant to be an enjoyable form of entertainment — not a source of financial stress or personal harm. dhakabet provides every registered player with a comprehensive set of self-management tools, safeguards, and support resources designed to keep your gaming experience firmly in control. This page explains what those tools are and how to use them.
Player Safeguards
Tools Designed to Keep You in Control
dhakabet puts a full toolkit directly in your hands. Every registered player can access these features instantly from their account settings — no waiting period, no approval queue.
Deposit Limits
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you can deposit into your dhakabet account. Once a limit is active, it cannot be increased for 24 hours — giving you a built-in cooling-off period before any change takes effect.
Session Time Limits
Define the maximum number of hours you wish to spend on the platform in a single sitting. When your session limit is reached, you will receive an on-screen notification and be automatically logged out to encourage a healthy break.
Loss Limits
Restrict the maximum amount you are willing to lose over a defined period. If your net losses reach the threshold you set, further wagering is paused until the limit period resets — protecting your bankroll against impulsive chasing behaviour.
Reality Checks
Enable periodic on-screen reminders that display how long you have been playing and a summary of your net profit or loss during the current session. Reality checks are a simple but powerful way to maintain an honest perspective on your gambling activity.
Time-Out (Cool-Off)
Take a short break from gambling by activating a time-out period of 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out your account is temporarily suspended for all gambling activity. It reactivates automatically when the period ends.
Self-Exclusion
Request a longer-term voluntary exclusion of 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanent. Unlike time-out, self-exclusion does not reactivate automatically — you must contact our support team to review your request after the minimum period has elapsed.
Section 1
Our Commitment to Player Safety
dhakabet operates on the principle that sustainable, enjoyable gambling requires informed, empowered players. We do not regard responsible gaming as a regulatory checkbox — we regard it as the foundation of everything we do. A platform built on trust earns long-term loyalty; a platform that ignores player welfare earns neither.
Our responsible gaming programme is built around four core commitments: transparency, accessibility of tools, proactive monitoring, and rapid response. Transparency means we tell you clearly how our games work, what the house edge is, and what your statistical odds of winning are over time. Accessibility means every protective tool on this page is available to every registered player at any time, at no cost, with no friction. Proactive monitoring means our systems flag unusual patterns of play — rapid escalation of stake sizes, unusually long sessions, or a sharp increase in deposit frequency — and trigger a welfare check from our team. Rapid response means that when you reach out to us about a gambling concern, our support team treats that contact with the highest priority.
We recognise that our player base spans Bangladesh — from Dhaka and Chittagong to Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, and beyond — and that for some players, gambling may intersect with financial pressures that are particularly acute. That awareness shapes how seriously we take our responsibilities. We would rather a player take a break, use our tools, and return in a healthy state of mind than continue playing in a way that causes harm.
If you ever feel that gambling is affecting your finances, your relationships, your work, or your mental wellbeing, please reach out. Our support team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including all public holidays in Bangladesh — Eid, Victory Day, Independence Day, and beyond.
Gambling is not a way to make money. The mathematical house edge means that over a large number of bets, the platform will always collect more than it pays out. Gambling should be treated as paid entertainment — budget only what you are genuinely comfortable losing, just as you would budget for a cinema ticket or a meal out.
Need immediate help? Contact our responsible gaming team at support@dhakabet or use the Live Chat button available on every page of the site. We respond to welfare-related contacts within minutes, around the clock.
Section 2
Age Restriction — 18+ Only
dhakabet is strictly an adults-only platform. We do not accept registrations from individuals under the age of 18, and we actively enforce this policy through a combination of registration controls, document-based identity verification, and ongoing account monitoring.
During the registration process, every applicant is required to confirm that they are 18 years of age or older. This confirmation is a binding declaration. Providing a false declaration of age in order to open a player account constitutes a material breach of our Terms and Conditions and will result in immediate account closure and forfeiture of any balance held at the time of discovery.
As part of our Know Your Customer (KYC) verification process, we require players to submit a government-issued photo identity document — such as a Bangladesh National Identity Card (NID), passport, or driving licence — before processing any withdrawal. Date of birth is verified against this document. Any account where verification reveals the holder to be under 18 will be closed immediately, all deposits will be returned, and all associated winnings will be voided.
We also take seriously the risk of underage individuals gaining access to a registered adult's account. If you share a household with minors, we strongly recommend:
- Never leaving your account logged in on a shared device.
- Using a strong, unique password that is not known to other household members.
- Enabling two-factor authentication (2FA) on your account for an extra layer of login security.
- Using device-level parental controls to restrict access to gambling websites on shared computers or mobile phones.
If you have reason to believe that a minor has accessed a gambling account — whether yours or another person's — please contact our support team immediately. We treat every such report with the highest urgency.
This platform is strictly for adults aged 18 years and above. Providing a false age declaration is a breach of our Terms and Conditions and may constitute a criminal offence under applicable law.
Section 3
Responsible Gaming Tools — How to Use Them
All responsible gaming tools described below are available directly within your dhakabet account settings. To access them, log in and navigate to Account Settings > Responsible Gaming. Changes to protective limits take effect immediately; increases to limits are subject to a mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period.
Deposit Limits
Choose a daily, weekly, or monthly maximum deposit amount in BDT. Suitable ranges might be ৳500–৳5,000 per day for casual players and up to ৳20,000 per month for more active players. Set the limit that reflects your genuine entertainment budget.
Account Settings > Deposit LimitsLoss Limits
Define the maximum net loss you are prepared to absorb over a chosen period. Once reached, your account will be temporarily restricted from placing further bets until the limit window resets. Increases require a 24-hour waiting period.
Account Settings > Loss LimitsSession Limits
Set a maximum session duration after which you are automatically logged out. Available options range from 30 minutes to 4 hours. A pop-up summary of your session activity is displayed before logout so you can review your play at a glance.
Account Settings > Session LimitsReality Checks
Configure reminders to pop up at regular intervals — every 15, 30, or 60 minutes — displaying elapsed time and net session result. Reality checks require you to actively confirm you wish to continue playing before your session resumes.
Account Settings > Reality ChecksSection 4
Self-Exclusion Programme
Self-exclusion is the most powerful tool available to a player who believes their gambling has become, or is at risk of becoming, harmful. When you self-exclude from dhakabet, your account is immediately and completely suspended. You will not be able to log in, place bets, deposit funds, or receive any promotional communications for the duration of your exclusion period.
Self-exclusion options are available for the following durations:
- 6 Months — A meaningful break that allows time to reassess your relationship with gambling without a permanent commitment.
- 1 Year — A longer pause recommended for players who have identified a pattern of problem gambling and wish to address it with professional support.
- 3 Years — An extended exclusion suitable for players who have experienced significant financial or personal harm related to gambling.
- Permanent (Indefinite) — A lifetime ban from the platform. This option cannot be reversed under any circumstances. We treat this as a final, irrevocable decision and will never attempt to persuade a player to reconsider it.
To activate self-exclusion, contact our support team via Live Chat or at support@dhakabet. We will process your request within 24 hours. During that period, we recommend you also consider self-excluding from any other gambling platforms you use, as self-exclusion on dhakabet alone does not prevent access to other operators.
Reinstatement after non-permanent self-exclusion: When your chosen self-exclusion period expires, your account will not reactivate automatically. You must contact our support team, confirm your identity, and undergo a brief welfare review before access is restored. This cooling-off process is deliberately designed to ensure reinstatement is a considered, informed decision rather than an impulsive one.
Important: Any balance held in your account at the time of self-exclusion will be returned to you via your registered payment method (bKash, Nagad, or bank transfer) within 5 business days. Pending bonuses that have not been converted to real-money balance will be voided.
How to Self-Exclude
- Log in to your dhakabet account.
- Go to Account Settings > Responsible Gaming > Self-Exclusion.
- Select your desired exclusion duration.
- Confirm your decision. Our team will process the request within 24 hours.
- Alternatively, contact support directly via Live Chat or email for immediate assistance.
Section 5
Recognising Problem Gambling
Problem gambling — sometimes called gambling disorder — is a recognised condition in which an individual's gambling behaviour causes persistent and escalating harm to their finances, relationships, mental health, or professional life. It is characterised not by the amount wagered or the frequency of play, but by the inability to control that behaviour despite clear negative consequences.
Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of income level, education, or prior gambling history. It is not a sign of weakness or poor character — it is a behavioural pattern that can develop gradually, often beginning as a harmless leisure activity. The warning signs include, but are not limited to:
- Spending more money on gambling than you originally intended or can afford.
- Chasing losses — placing further bets in an attempt to recover money already lost.
- Lying to family members, friends, or colleagues about how much time or money you spend gambling.
- Borrowing money, selling possessions, or neglecting bills in order to fund gambling activity.
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when you are not gambling or when you try to stop.
- Using gambling as a way to escape stress, loneliness, grief, or other difficult emotions.
- Repeatedly trying and failing to reduce or stop your gambling.
- Neglecting work, studies, family responsibilities, or personal relationships because of gambling.
If any of these signs feel familiar — whether in your own behaviour or in that of someone close to you — we encourage you to take the self-assessment in the next section, contact our support team, and explore the professional help resources listed in the Support section below.
If gambling is causing you distress right now, please stop playing immediately and reach out.
Contact our 24/7 support team via Live Chat on site or at support@dhakabet.
You can also request an immediate account suspension by contacting our team — no justification required. We will act on your request without delay.
Section 6
Self-Assessment Checklist
Answer the following questions honestly and privately. If you find yourself answering "yes" to three or more of them, we encourage you to speak with our responsible gaming team or a professional counsellor.
Have you ever gambled with money that was set aside for essential expenses such as rent, utilities, food, or loan repayments?
Have you ever tried to win back money you had already lost by placing more bets — a behaviour known as chasing losses?
Have you ever felt the need to gamble with increasingly large amounts of money in order to achieve the same level of excitement or satisfaction?
Have you borrowed money, sold personal belongings, or taken out a loan in order to fund your gambling?
Have you ever concealed the extent of your gambling activity from a family member, partner, or close friend?
Have you experienced feelings of guilt, shame, anxiety, or depression after a gambling session?
Have you ever attempted to reduce or stop gambling and found that you were unable to do so despite your intentions?
Has gambling ever negatively affected your work performance, family relationships, studies, or physical health?
Three or more "yes" answers are a strong indicator that your gambling behaviour may be causing harm. Please contact our responsible gaming team at support@dhakabet, use the Live Chat on site, or refer to the professional support resources listed in the next section. Taking this step is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Section 7
Getting Help & Support
dhakabet strongly encourages players who are concerned about their gambling to seek help — both from our internal team and from independent professional organisations.

There is absolutely no judgement, no pressure, and no obligation to continue playing when you reach out to us about a gambling concern.

Section 8
Protecting Vulnerable Players
Responsible gaming is not only about protecting individual players — it is also about ensuring that those who are particularly vulnerable are never exposed to gambling harm in the first place. dhakabet takes additional precautions for several groups of players whose circumstances may place them at elevated risk.
Players experiencing financial hardship: If our systems detect unusually high deposit frequency, rapid escalation of stake sizes, or other patterns associated with financial distress, our responsible gaming team may proactively reach out to the player to check in. We may also temporarily restrict certain account features until a welfare review has been completed. This is never punitive — it is a genuine safeguard.
Players with a history of self-exclusion: Players who have previously self-excluded and subsequently requested reinstatement are subject to enhanced monitoring during the first 90 days following the return of account access. During this period, deposit limits are automatically applied at a conservative level. The player may request a review of these limits after 30 days if they feel ready to adjust them responsibly.
Protecting family members: If you are concerned that a family member or someone in your household is gambling to a harmful degree on dhakabet, you may contact our responsible gaming team confidentially. While our privacy obligations prevent us from disclosing specific account details to third parties, we can take certain protective actions if a concern is reported. We take every such report seriously and treat it in strict confidence.
Parental controls and content filtering: We encourage households with children to install parental control software on shared devices. Several free tools are available that can block access to gambling websites across all browsers on a device. Popular options compatible with devices commonly used in Bangladesh include Google Family Link and similar device-management applications.
Account Security Tips
- Use a strong, unique password not shared with any other service.
- Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on your account.
- Never share your login credentials with anyone, including family members.
- Always log out fully when using a shared or public device.
- Contact support immediately if you suspect unauthorised access.
