When is gaming entertainment, and when does it become a problem?

Online gaming and betting is a fun leisure activity for many people. But even the best things have their limits. At 89 dbd, we tell every member from the start – play for entertainment, not with expectations of guaranteed wins.

Responsible gaming means staying aware of your time, money, and mental well-being. When you find yourself playing repeatedly to recover losses, or pulling away from family and friends because of gaming — it's time to stop. 89 dbd's responsible gaming tools are built for exactly that moment.

Many people in Bangladesh feel embarrassed to talk about this. But acknowledging a problem isn't weakness – it takes courage. 89 dbd promises that any member who asks for help will be supported without judgment.

Simple rules for healthy gaming habits

Responsible gaming doesn't have to be complicated. A few simple habits are all it takes to keep gaming enjoyable:

  • Set a clear budget before you start playing – and stick to it.
  • Don't chase losses by placing more bets to try to win back what you've lost.
  • Set a daily time limit for how long you play.
  • Don't game when you're stressed, angry, or under the influence of alcohol.
  • Spending time with family and friends matters more than gaming.
  • At least once a month, ask yourself: is gaming still fun, or has it become a source of stress?

How to use the tools

Step-by-step guidance

01

Activate Budget Limits

Deciding in advance how much you'll spend on gaming each month is the most effective approach. It's the first step toward financial control.

  • Log in to the app and tap the profile icon
  • Go to the "Responsible Gaming" menu
  • Select the "Deposit Limit" option
  • Enter a daily / weekly / monthly amount
  • Click "Save" — takes effect immediately
02

Take a Break

Taking a break doesn't mean you've lost. Coming back with a clear head actually makes gaming more enjoyable.

  • Look for "Cooling-Off Period" in your profile settings
  • Choose 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or 6 weeks
  • Click "Yes" on the confirmation prompt
  • Your account will remain closed until the period expires
  • Automatically reactivates when the period ends
03

Self-Exclude

If you feel your gaming is getting out of control, self-exclusion is the most powerful step you can take.

  • Go to the "Self-Exclusion" option in Settings
  • Choose from 6 months, 1 year, or permanent
  • Confirm twice — this action cannot be undone
  • You'll receive a confirmation message by email
  • Contact support for any assistance
04

Enable time tracking

It's easy to lose track of how much time has passed. Session time alerts are a simple fix for that.

  • Go to the "Session Limits" option
  • Set a maximum daily session time
  • You'll receive a warning 15 minutes before your limit is reached
  • You'll be logged out automatically once the limit is reached
  • You can come back and play normally the next day

Warning signs — stop if you notice these

Recognizing the signs of problematic gaming early is essential

💸
Going over budget?
You keep spending more than the budget you set before each session, and telling yourself "this is the last time."
🔄
Chasing losses?
Placing more bets after a loss just to win back what you lost — this cycle is dangerous.
😶
Hiding it from family?
Hiding or lying to family or close ones about your gaming — this is a serious warning sign.
😰
Restless when you're not gaming?
Feeling irritable, restless, or low when you can't play – these are early signs of dependency.
🌙
Skipping sleep or meals?
Staying up late, skipping meals, or spending less time with family because of gaming.
💳
Betting with borrowed money?
Borrowing money or relying on credit cards to fund your betting.
