Responsible Gaming at 88td

1. Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

88td is built on the belief that gambling should be a safe, transparent, and entertaining activity for every player in Bangladesh. We take our responsibility seriously — not just as a compliance requirement, but because the welfare of our players genuinely matters to us. Our responsible gaming programme is an integrated part of everything we do, from the tools available in your account to the way our support team is trained.

Responsible gaming at 88td means giving players the knowledge and tools to make informed decisions about their gambling behaviour. It means setting clear limits, recognising warning signs early, and acting on them promptly. We offer a range of practical tools — deposit limits, time-outs, session reminders, and self-exclusion — that you can activate at any time, simply by contacting our support team at [email protected].

We are equally committed to preventing underage gambling. Every player on 88td must be 21 years of age or older. Age verification is a mandatory step during registration, and we reserve the right to request additional proof of age and identity at any time. If we have reasonable cause to suspect that a player is underage, their account will be suspended immediately pending investigation.

2. Age Restriction — 21+ Only

88td is strictly an adults-only platform. Under no circumstances may any person under the age of 21 register, deposit, or participate in any gambling activity on this platform. This applies to all players accessing 88td from Bangladesh, whether from Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, Barisal, Rangpur, or any other location.

Our age verification process includes the following steps to prevent underage access:

• Date of birth is collected and validated during account registration, and any account where the declared age is below 21 is immediately rejected.
• KYC verification requires submission of a government-issued National ID Card, passport, or driving licence — documents that confirm both identity and age.
• 88td's compliance team may request additional age verification documents at any time, including at the point of a withdrawal request, without giving prior notice.
• If an account is found to belong to a person under 21, it will be permanently closed, all balances will be forfeited, and all related transaction records will be reported as required by applicable law.

If you are a parent or guardian and you believe that a minor in your care has accessed or registered on 88td, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. We will act swiftly to suspend the account and address the situation.

3. Responsible Gaming Tools

88td provides a suite of practical, player-activated tools designed to help you maintain control over your gambling activity. All of the following tools can be requested by contacting our support team at [email protected]. We will action all requests within 24 hours Bangladesh Standard Time (BST, UTC+6).

• 💰
  Deposit Limits

  You can set a maximum deposit amount on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once a limit is active, it cannot be increased for at least 7 days to prevent impulsive decisions. Limits can be decreased immediately at any time. Contact [email protected] to set or adjust your deposit limit.

• ⏱️
  Time-Out

  A time-out is a short, structured break from gambling. You can request a time-out of 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, 2 weeks, or up to 6 weeks. During a time-out, your account is suspended — you cannot log in, deposit, or place any bets. At the end of the time-out period, your account is automatically restored.

• 🔒
  Self-Exclusion

  If you feel that gambling is seriously affecting your life, finances, or relationships, you can request a self-exclusion. Self-exclusion can be set for a minimum of 6 months or made permanent. During self-exclusion, your account is fully deactivated, all promotional communications are stopped, and you will not be permitted to re-register on the platform. This is our strongest tool and is intended for players who need a complete break.

• 📊
  Session History & Tracking

  You can review your full session history — including time spent playing, games accessed, amounts deposited, and amounts withdrawn — at any time through your account dashboard. Keeping track of your gambling activity is one of the most effective ways to stay in control.

• 🔔
  Reality Checks

  You can request periodic in-session reminders that show how long you have been playing and how much you have spent in the current session. These brief alerts serve as a prompt to pause, reflect, and decide whether to continue playing.

To activate any of these tools, email [email protected] with the subject line "Responsible Gaming Request" and state which tool you need and your preferred settings. Our team will confirm activation within 24 hours BST. There is no charge for using any responsible gaming tool.

4. Recognising Problem Gambling

Problem gambling is characterised by a persistent or recurring urge to gamble despite negative consequences. It can affect anyone, regardless of income, age, or experience. Recognising the signs early is critical to getting help before gambling causes serious harm. Common warning signs include:

• Spending more money on gambling than you originally planned, or chasing losses by placing larger bets to try to recover what you have lost.
• Gambling with money that is meant for essential expenses such as rent, food, household bills, bKash transfers, or family obligations.
• Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when you are not gambling, or when you try to reduce or stop gambling.
• Lying to family members, friends, or colleagues about the amount of time or money you spend gambling, or hiding your gambling activity from people close to you.
• Borrowing money from others — including mobile banking services like bKash or Nagad — specifically to fund gambling activity.
• Neglecting work, studies, family responsibilities, or personal health because of gambling, or spending excessive time thinking about gambling when you are not doing it.
• Repeatedly trying to cut back or stop gambling but finding that you cannot do so, or returning to gambling shortly after a self-imposed break.

If you recognise any of these signs in yourself, please do not wait. Contact our support team at [email protected] to request a time-out, deposit limit, or self-exclusion immediately. Early action is the most effective way to prevent gambling from becoming a serious problem.

5. Tips for Gambling Safely

The following practical guidelines can help you keep gambling enjoyable and within healthy boundaries. We recommend reviewing these regularly, especially if you play frequently.

• Set a strict budget before you start each session and stop as soon as that budget is reached — regardless of whether you are winning or losing. Never chase losses.
• Treat gambling as entertainment, not as a way to make money. The house always has a mathematical edge, and no strategy or pattern guarantees consistent winnings over time.
• Set a time limit for each session and use your phone's timer or the platform's session reminders to enforce it. Taking regular breaks during a session helps you stay clear-headed.
• Never gamble when you are feeling stressed, depressed, anxious, or under the influence of alcohol. Emotional states impair judgement and lead to poor decisions that you are likely to regret.
• Balance your gambling with other hobbies and social activities. If you find that gambling is gradually taking up more of your time and replacing other activities you used to enjoy, that is a warning sign worth taking seriously.
• Talk openly with people you trust about your gambling. Having someone who knows what you are doing and can offer an honest outside perspective is one of the best informal safeguards against problem gambling.

6. Protecting Minors

If you share a device with children or young people, it is important to take steps to prevent them from accessing 88td or any other gambling platform. Exposure to gambling content at a young age can normalise gambling behaviour and increase the likelihood of developing gambling problems in adulthood.

We strongly recommend the following protective measures for any household where minors are present:

• Always log out of your 88td account when you are finished playing, especially on shared or family devices. Enable a strong password or biometric lock on your device so that it cannot be accessed by children without your knowledge.
• Consider installing parental control software on shared devices. Several reputable applications are available for both Android and iOS that can restrict access to gambling-related websites and apps for specific user profiles.
• Talk to children and teenagers in your household about gambling in an age-appropriate way. Explaining that gambling involves real financial risk and is only for adults can help build healthy attitudes before they are exposed to gambling advertising or peer pressure.

7. Getting Help

If you feel that your gambling has become a problem — or if someone close to you is concerned about your gambling — the most important thing you can do is ask for help. There is no shame in recognising that gambling has stopped being fun and has started causing harm. Acting early, before the situation escalates, is always the right decision.

88td's support team is available by email at [email protected]. When you contact us about a responsible gaming concern, your message is handled with full confidentiality by a trained team member. We will not judge you, and we will not penalise your account for reaching out. We will simply work with you to apply whichever tool is most appropriate for your situation — whether that is a deposit limit, a time-out, or a full self-exclusion.
