Deposit Limit
Set a maximum deposit limit on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Limits take effect immediately, and any increase requires a 24-hour waiting period.

What is responsible gambling?

Responsible gaming means treating betting as a form of entertainment — not a source of income or a way to solve problems. b188 believes that with the right mindset, a set budget, and clear time limits, betting can be a genuinely enjoyable experience.

Online betting is enjoyed by many people across Bangladesh. However, some players fall into the trap of chasing losses — repeatedly placing bets to recover money they've lost — which can become a dangerous habit. To help prevent this, b188 has built a comprehensive responsible gaming framework.

Remember: Winning and losing are both part of betting. Only bet what you can afford to lose without it affecting your daily life.

B188's responsible gaming framework is built on three core principles — raising awareness, providing the right tools, and offering support when needed. We want you to enjoy safely, for life.

How to Recognize a Problem

How do you know if you have a gambling problem?

Problem betting doesn't always appear suddenly. Habits shift gradually, and it can be hard to notice the signs yourself. Ask yourself the following questions:

1
Are you spending more than your budget on betting and regretting it later?
2
Are you stuck in a cycle — placing more bets just to chase your losses?
3
Are you hiding or lying to family and friends about your betting?
4
Do you feel restless or irritable when you're not betting, like something is missing?
5
Are you neglecting work, studies, or family responsibilities because of betting?
6
Are you taking out loans or borrowing money from others to fund your betting?

If you answered "Yes" to two or more of the questions above, it may be time to seek help. Reach out to us at support@b188.ws.

Gambling Risk Level

Low Risk Within budget, for entertainment

Stick to your set budget, stay calm even when you lose, and keep betting from affecting your family or work.

Moderate Risk Sometimes Goes Over Budget

You sometimes spend more than planned or try to win back what you've lost.

High Risk Need Immediate Help

Betting is taking over your life, and family or financial problems are starting to appear.

Stay in control

How to Set Your Betting Limits

2
Go to Account Settings

Click the profile icon in the top-right corner and navigate to the "Responsible Gambling" section.

4
Set an Amount and Duration

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly spending limit in BDT — whichever timeframe works for you.

5

Lowering a limit takes effect immediately. Raising one takes effect after 24 hours — this prevents impulsive changes.

Tips

10 Golden Rules for Safe Betting

1 Set Your Budget in Advance

Decide how much you're willing to spend before you start betting, and never go beyond that amount.

2 Don't Chase Your Losses

Stop when you're losing. Placing more bets will only make things worse.

3 Stick to Your Time Limits

Don't bet for more than a set amount of time each day.

4 Never Bet Under the Influence or When Emotional

Only place bets when you're in a calm and healthy state of mind.

5 Take a Break

Take a 5–10 minute break at least once every hour.

6 Don't Treat Betting as a Source of Income

Betting is not a reliable source of income — it's entertainment, nothing more.

7 Be open with your family

If you start hiding things from loved ones, that's a sign something is wrong.

8 Never bet with borrowed money

Never use borrowed money or credit to place bets.

9 Don't Play to Win at All Costs

Winning is never guaranteed on any bet — that's simply how betting works.

10 Don't hesitate to ask for help

If something feels wrong, contact b188 support right away.

FAQ

Responsible Gambling FAQ

It depends on the type of self-exclusion. A temporary exclusion (up to 6 months) allows you to reactivate your account once the period ends. A permanent exclusion, however, cannot be reversed — so think carefully before choosing that option.

Yes, reducing your deposit limit takes effect immediately. However, increasing it requires a 24-hour waiting period — this prevents impulsive changes and helps you make more responsible decisions.

No, only the account holder can set limits or activate an exclusion. That said, if you're concerned about a loved one, let us know at support@b188.ws — we'll handle it with full confidentiality.

Any funds in your account during self-exclusion remain safe. Once the exclusion period ends, or by contacting support, you can complete the withdrawal process.

b188 strictly enforces an 18+ age policy. If age cannot be verified during KYC, the account will be closed and any deposited funds returned. If you're aware of a minor holding an account, please report it immediately to support@b188.ws.
