Responsible Gaming It means keeping gaming as part of your entertainment — not the center of your life. Simply put, the real question is whether you're in control when you play.
EX88Responsible gaming at means:
For many people, gaming is like watching cricket — just a form of entertainment. But for some, it can develop into a habit that has a negative impact on their life. EX88 understands the difference between the two and wants to be there for its members in both situations.
Gaming habits can gradually become a problem — so slowly that it's hard to notice. Check the signs below — these are warning flags.
You're betting with money set aside for food, rent, or bills.
You keep placing larger bets trying to recover what you have lost.
You have lost track of how long you have been playing and cannot stop.
You're hiding your gaming from family or friends.
You feel irritable or restless when you cannot play.
Your focus at work or in your studies has declined because of gaming.
Spotting one or two of these signs in yourself isn't necessarily cause for alarm — but it is cause for caution. If you recognize three or more, take a moment to pause and read the help section on this page.
Answer the following questions honestly — they are just for you. No one is watching, and there are no wrong answers.
In the past month, have you placed bigger bets to try to win back money you had already lost?
Has a family member or someone close to you expressed concern about your gaming habits?
Have you ever borrowed money or asked someone for funds in order to place a bet?
Have you ever tried to stop gaming but found you could not?
Are you prioritizing gaming over work, studies, or family responsibilities?
EX88On , you can set your own gaming limits. These features can be activated from your account settings or through support.
Setting limits is not a sign of weakness — it is a sign of maturity. People who manage themselves well are the ones who enjoy gaming the most over the long run.
Set a maximum daily, weekly, or monthly deposit amount. Once set, it cannot be increased before the specified period ends.
Effective immediatelySet a maximum stake per bet — decide in advance how much you will wager per round or per session.
Effective immediatelyDecide in advance how long each session will last. Once the time is up, your account will automatically end the session.
Set via SupportOnce you lose more than a set amount, play will stop for the rest of the day — if you cannot stop yourself, the system will do it for you.
Set via SupportSometimes, stepping back is the best decision you can make. EX88offers two different levels of break options.
Take a temporary break from 24 hours up to 30 days. During this time you won't be able to log in, but your balance will remain safe.
Valid: 24 hours — 30 daysExclude yourself for anywhere from 6 months to permanently. No promotional messages will be sent during this period. Any forfeited funds will be returned.
Duration: 6 months or permanentTo activate self-exclusion, simply message our support chat — no questions asked, it takes effect immediately.
If a login attempt is made during a self-exclusion period, the system will automatically block access. EX88 respects this commitment — no special offers or promotional messages are sent during an exclusion period.
EX88No one under 18 is permitted to play on — this rule is strictly enforced. Date of birth is verified at registration, and KYC documents are requested for any account that raises concern.
If there are minors in your household who use your devices, take a few precautions:
If it is found that a minor is using an account, that account will be suspended immediately and the balance will be returned appropriately.
Asking for help takes courage. If you feel that gaming is having a negative impact on your life, reach out through any of the options below.
Live chat support in Bangla is available 24 hours a day. Whether it's setting limits, taking a break, or self-exclusion — help is always on hand. Completely confidential, no judgment.
Family and friends are often the first to notice when something is wrong. Talk to them openly — hiding the problem only makes it worse.
Speak with an addiction specialist or mental health counsellor. Accessing this kind of support in Bangladesh is easier now than it has ever been.
As online betting continues to grow in Bangladesh, the conversation around responsible gaming becomes just as important. EX88 From the very beginning, we've believed that a happy, in-control player is better for us in the long run too. A player who enjoys the experience keeps coming back. A player who runs into trouble turns gaming into a nightmare.
The truth is, not everyone experiences gaming the same way. Most people play a few times a week, enjoy it, accept a loss when it happens, and move on with their lives. But for a small number of people, gaming can turn into a habit that starts to affect other areas of life. It is for these people that EX88's responsible gaming tools were built to
Many people misunderstand deposit limits. Some see them as a hassle — like someone else is controlling them. It's actually the opposite: setting a limit means you're in control of yourself. The difference between playing on a monthly budget of ৳3,000 and betting freely every day is that with the first approach, you know exactly when to stop. EX88Setting this limit on takes just a few minutes from your account settings.
Chasing losses is one of the most harmful behaviors in gaming psychology. Betting ৳2,000 to recover a ৳500 loss only puts you at risk of a much bigger one. Once this cycle starts, it's hard to break. EX88Setting a loss limit means the system will automatically stop your play for the day once that limit is reached — protecting you from further losses.
Many people are not aware of the cooling-off option. Imagine you are having a particularly stressful week — your head is not in the right place, but the urge to play is there. That is exactly when you are most likely to make poor decisions. Locking your account for 24 or 48 hours gives your mind a chance to settle, so you can come back with a clearer head. Taking a break is easy — a single message to support is all it takes.
Many people feel ashamed about self-exclusion. In reality, it's one of the most mature decisions you can make. Recognizing your own limits and acting on them — that's true strength. EX88During a self-exclusion period, no promotional messages, special offers, or "come back" communications will be sent. You return only when you're ready.
What your family says matters too. Often a spouse, parent, or child will say things like "you're spending too much time on your phone" or "why are we always short on money" — and we brush it off. When those comments keep coming, it is worth pausing to reflect. A family's concern is frequently an early warning sign. EX88 recommends — if your family is raising concerns, take a moment for genuine self-reflection.
At the end of the day, gaming is meant to be enjoyed. EX88Watching cricket on and placing a bet, chatting with friends about slots, dreaming of hitting the jackpot — these are all great experiences. Enjoy them for as long as they bring you joy. And the moment it starts to feel like a burden — stop, and reach out. We are here.
