Responsible Gaming at 898bd
We believe gambling should be fun, not a source of stress. Explore our safety tools, policies, and support resources designed to keep every player in control.
At 898bd, responsible gaming is not just a policy statement — it is a core part of how we operate. Gambling is a form of entertainment and should always remain that way. Whether you enjoy cricket betting, live casino games, slots, or crash games, we encourage every player in Bangladesh to approach gaming with a clear head, a set budget, and defined time limits.
Problem gambling can affect anyone regardless of age, background, or experience. Recognising the early signs and using the right tools can make the difference between an enjoyable hobby and a harmful habit. 898bd provides practical controls directly in your account, so you stay in charge at every step of your journey.

Your Control Toolkit
-
Set a Deposit Limit
Log in to your account, navigate to Account Settings, and choose a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Limits take effect immediately when you lower them. Increases require a 7-day cooling-off period to protect you from impulsive decisions.
-
Activate a Time-Out
If you need a short break, activate a time-out period ranging from 24 hours up to 30 days. During the time-out your account is suspended — you cannot deposit, bet, or access games — but any existing winnings remain accessible after the period ends.
-
Request Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion is the strongest protective measure we offer. Contact our support team via email and request a 6-month, 1-year, or permanent exclusion. Once activated, 898bd will close your account and you will not be able to register a new account during the exclusion period.
-
Cool-Off Period
A cool-off period is a lighter alternative to full exclusion, lasting between 1 and 42 days. During this time you can still log in and review your account but cannot place new bets. It is a useful middle ground when you want to reflect without fully closing your account.
All self-imposed limits are processed by our team as a matter of priority. We never attempt to talk players out of requesting protective measures. Your wellbeing always comes before any commercial consideration at 898bd.

Common Questions
-
How do I set a deposit limit on my 898bd account?
Log in to your 898bd account, go to Account Settings, and look for the Responsible Gaming or Deposit Limits section. From there you can set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap in BDT. Reductions take effect immediately; increases require a 7-day waiting period.
-
What is the difference between a time-out and self-exclusion?
A time-out is a short-term account pause of 24 hours to 30 days. Self-exclusion is a longer-term or permanent closure lasting 6 months to permanently. During self-exclusion you cannot register a new account. A cool-off period (1 to 42 days) sits between the two and still allows you to view your account without placing bets.
-
Can minors access 898bd?
No. 898bd strictly enforces a minimum age of 21 years. All accounts undergo identity verification, and any account found to belong to a person under 21 is immediately closed. We encourage parents and guardians to use parental control software to prevent underage access to gambling sites.
-
What should I do if I think gambling is becoming a problem for me?
Stop playing immediately and contact the 898bd support team at [email protected]. Request a time-out or self-exclusion so we can protect your account without delay. You may also speak to a trusted friend, family member, or professional counsellor. Never chase losses and never borrow money to gamble.
