Gaming is meant to be fun — not a source of stress. At 88abd, we believe every player should know their limits and play responsibly and in moderation. This page has all the information and tools you need to build healthy gaming habits.
Responsible gaming means treating gaming as a form of entertainment — not a guaranteed way to earn money or an escape from everyday problems. At 88abd, we believe gaming is truly enjoyable only when players have the right information and tools at their disposal.
Online gaming is growing fast in Bangladesh. From young adults to older players, more people are enjoying casino games, slots, and betting from home. But like any form of entertainment, it needs boundaries. Excessive gaming can have a negative impact on your family life, finances, and mental health.
88abd is more than just a gaming platform — we are committed to the safety and well-being of our players. That's why every account comes with responsible gaming tools, completely free of charge.
All players are required to comply with 88abd's responsible gaming policy. By creating an account, you have agreed to these terms.
88abd offers a range of effective tools to help you stay in control. You can access all of them anytime from your account settings.
Decide in advance how much you'll deposit daily, weekly, or monthly. Lowering your limit takes effect immediately, but increasing it requires a 24-hour waiting period — so impulsive decisions are harder to make.
Example: 65% of your monthly limit has been used
Set a cap on how much you are willing to wager within a given period. This helps protect you from sudden, significant losses.
Decide how long you want to play before you start. Once that time is up, 88abd will automatically alert you or log you out.
Decide in advance how much you are willing to lose before you stop playing. If you reach that limit, your account will be locked automatically.
If you need a short break, you can pause your account for anywhere between 24 hours and 6 weeks. You will not be able to log in during this period.
If you feel you need an extended break from gaming, you can apply to close your account for anywhere from 6 months to 5 years, or permanently. This feature is completely free.
If you attempt to create a new account while Self-Exclusion is active, it will be automatically detected and blocked.
The signs below indicate that it may be time to take a closer look at your gaming habits. Don't see them as a weakness — awareness is your greatest strength.
Spending beyond your budget: You're dipping into household expenses, EMI payments, or emergency savings to fund your gaming.
Losing track of time: You spend hours gaming without realizing how much time has passed.
Chasing losses: You keep placing larger bets after losses, trying to win back what you've lost.
Withdrawing from Family and Friends: You are spending less time with family and friends and devoting most of your time to gaming.
Tendency to Hide: You are hiding how much time and money you are spending from family or people close to you.
Emotional instability: You feel restless, irritable, or anxious when you are unable to game.
Impact on work or studies: Your gaming is causing you to lose focus at work or in your studies.
If you notice one or more of these signs in yourself, please contact 88abd Support immediately or activate self-exclusion.
Responsible gaming doesn't mean giving up gaming. When done right, gaming can be a great source of entertainment. Follow the tips below:
Set a fixed monthly budget for gaming and stick to it. Treat this money as entertainment spending — don't expect to get it back.
Decide how long you will play before you start. Set a timer on your phone or use 88abd's session timer. Always take a break when your time is up.
When you hit a target win, withdraw those funds. Don't put all your winnings back into play — it never pays off in the long run.
Avoid gaming when you're feeling down, angry, or frustrated. Your judgment is impaired during those moments, and the risk of bigger losses goes up.
Spend time with family, catch up with friends, work out, or pursue a hobby. Keep life balanced alongside gaming.
Never borrow money from friends, family, or a bank to fund your gaming. It creates financial hardship and puts strain on your relationships.
Answer the following questions honestly. If you answer "Yes" to 3 or more, consider seeking support.

Have you started gaming again just to shake off the frustration of a loss?
Has gaming affected your ability to fulfill work, academic, or personal responsibilities?
Have you borrowed money or sold valuables to cover your gaming expenses?
Have you felt restless or low when you were unable to game?
