6 core pillars of responsible gaming

Bdt98 believes gaming should be a source of fun, never a source of problems.

Setting a budget

Decide how much you want to spend before you start playing. At bdt98, you can set your own daily, weekly, and monthly deposit limits. If you approach that limit, the system will automatically alert you.

Time Management

Playing for hours on end isn't healthy. bdt98's session timer reminds you to take regular breaks. You can set your own daily maximum gaming time.

Self-Exclusion

Feel like you're gaming a bit too much? bdt98's self-exclusion feature lets you temporarily or permanently close your own account, on your terms.

Spending Tracker

At bdt98, a detailed record of every transaction is maintained. You can view a complete breakdown of how much you've spent, won, and lost at any time.

Minor protection

Bdt98 strictly ensures that no one under the age of 18 can access the platform. Age verification and KYC checks are always active.

Why responsible gaming matters

Online gaming is growing rapidly in popularity across Bangladesh. Alongside the entertainment and excitement, it also carries certain risks. bdt98 believes responsible gaming means knowing yourself — being aware of when to play, how much to play, and when to stop.

Gaming is enjoyable when it stays a hobby. But when it starts causing financial stress, family problems, or emotional distress, that is a sign the line has been crossed. bdt98 keeps all responsible gaming features and information in one place so you can always stay safe.

Every player's life, income, and circumstances are different, so no single rule works for everyone. That said, there are some core principles that make responsible gaming much more manageable — and that's exactly what this page covers in detail.

Keep in mind

Gaming is not a source of income — it is a form of entertainment. Never bet money that you cannot afford to lose.

10 core rules for safe gaming

For responsible gaming at bdt98, we encourage all members to follow the guidelines below. These will help make your gaming experience more enjoyable and safer.

  • Set a weekly or monthly spending limit in advance and stick to it strictly.
  • Never chase losses by placing bigger bets — that is the biggest mistake you can make.
  • Never play when you're angry, frustrated, or under emotional stress.
  • Set a time limit before each session and stop when it's up.
  • Never let gaming take priority over your family, friends, or work.
  • Never gamble with borrowed or loaned money — only play with funds you can afford to lose.
  • Avoid gaming while under the influence of alcohol or any other substance.
  • Take regular breaks — rest for at least 10 minutes every hour.
  • Set a win limit — once you've reached a certain amount, call it a day.

Practical tips for responsible gaming

Keep these simple tips in mind to stay safe during your daily gaming sessions

Use a timer

Set a separate timer on your phone or computer. When the time is up, log out — no exceptions.

Separate gaming wallet

Keep a small balance separate from your main savings for gaming. Once it's gone, don't top it up.

Take gaming-free days

Take at least 2-3 complete breaks from gaming each week. Use those days to spend time with family and friends.

Keep a gaming diary

Track how much time and money you spend each day. Review it at the end of the month and adjust your limits accordingly.

Avoid Playing at Night

Playing while tired or drowsy impairs your decision-making. Stop gaming after 11 PM.

Tell someone you trust

Let a family member or trusted friend know your gaming budget and time limits. Accountability makes it easier to stick to boundaries.

Stop while you're ahead

Stop after a good win. The temptation to keep playing while on a winning streak is one of the most dangerous urges — it often leads to significant losses.

Find alternative entertainment

There are many ways to enjoy yourself beyond gaming. Reading, walking, cooking, or picking up a new hobby can all help maintain a healthy mental balance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most frequently asked questions about responsible gaming

Log in to your bdt98 account, then go to the "Responsible Gaming" section under "Account Settings". There you'll find options to set daily, weekly, and monthly deposit limits separately. Limits take effect immediately once set. Reducing a limit is instant, but increasing one may be subject to a cooling-off period.

Yes. Activating Self-Exclusion will disable your account for a set period or permanently. During this time, you will not be able to log in, make deposits, or play any games. Your balance will remain secure, and access will be restored once the exclusion period ends. For permanent exclusion, you will need to contact support to reactivate and complete a mandatory waiting period.

Start by having a calm, non-confrontational conversation — approach the topic with empathy, not blame. Let them know about bdt98's self-exclusion and cooling-off features. If needed, bring in bdt98's support team as a neutral third party. You can also suggest professional mental health support — that's not a sign of weakness, it takes real courage.

Yes. Age declaration is mandatory when registering on bdt98, and a government-issued ID is required for KYC verification. If an account holder is suspected to be under 18, the account is immediately suspended and a verification process is initiated. Any report of a minor using an account is acted upon promptly.

A cooling-off period is a temporary break — typically ranging from 24 hours to 30 days. During this time you cannot play or make deposits, but your account reactivates automatically once the period ends. Self-exclusion, on the other hand, is a longer-term or permanent decision — you can close your account for 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. If you are experiencing serious problems with gaming, self-exclusion is the more effective option.

Start by subtracting all essential expenses from your monthly income — rent, food, communication, healthcare, and so on. Then set aside some savings. What's left is your entertainment budget, and no more than 5% of that should go toward gaming. For example: if you earn BDT 30,000 a month, and after essential expenses and savings you have BDT 5,000 for entertainment — your gaming budget is a maximum of BDT 250.
