Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At bk99bet, responsible gaming is not an afterthought — it is a core part of how we operate. We believe that gambling, when approached in the right spirit, is a form of entertainment that millions of people in Bangladesh and around the world enjoy safely and responsibly. However, we also recognise that for some individuals, gambling can become a problem that affects their finances, relationships, and overall well-being. Our mission is to ensure that every player on bk99bet has access to the tools, information, and support they need to keep their gaming experience positive and within healthy boundaries.

bk99bet has invested in a comprehensive responsible gaming framework that includes age verification, player-controlled deposit limits, session time-out options, cooling-off periods, and a robust self-exclusion programme. Our customer support team is available around the clock — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — to assist any player who feels that their gambling behaviour is becoming difficult to manage. We take every such enquiry seriously and respond with compassion, confidentiality, and practical guidance.

We actively collaborate with recognised problem-gambling support organisations and encourage all our players — regardless of whether they consider themselves at risk — to familiarise themselves with the responsible gaming resources on this page. Awareness is the first and most powerful step toward maintaining a healthy relationship with gambling. bk99bet pledges to continuously improve its responsible gaming tools and policies in line with international best practices and the evolving needs of our player community across Bangladesh.

Age Restriction & Player Verification

bk99bet operates a strict minimum age policy. You must be at least 18 years of age to register an account, deposit funds, or place any bet on bk99bet. This policy is non-negotiable and applies to every player regardless of location within Bangladesh — whether you are based in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Rajshahi, Khulna, Barisal, Rangpur, Mymensingh, or Cox's Bazar.

During the registration process, all players are required to confirm that they are 18 years of age or older. bk99bet conducts Know Your Customer (KYC) verification checks to confirm the identity and age of every player. These checks may require you to submit a copy of your National Identity Card (NID), passport, or other government-issued identification document. Players whose age cannot be confirmed will have their accounts suspended and any winnings withheld pending verification. If a player is confirmed to be under 18, their account will be permanently closed and all funds returned to the original payment source in accordance with applicable regulations.

bk99bet also strongly encourages parents and guardians to make use of parental control software to prevent underage individuals from accessing online gambling platforms. If you believe that a minor has accessed or registered on bk99bet, please contact our support team immediately at support@bk99bet or via Live Chat so that we can investigate and take appropriate action without delay.

Deposit Limits & Spend Controls

One of the most practical tools bk99bet provides for responsible gaming is the ability to set personalised deposit limits on your account. Deposit limits allow you to cap the maximum amount of Bangladeshi Taka (৳) that you deposit into your bk99bet account over a defined time period, helping you stay within a budget that is comfortable and sustainable for your personal financial situation.

bk99bet offers deposit limit controls across three time periods. You can set any combination of these limits simultaneously, and all limits are applied across your bk99bet account regardless of whether you deposit via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, or supported bank transfer channels.

When you reach your deposit limit for the relevant period, bk99bet will automatically block any further deposits until the period resets. You will receive a notification when you are approaching your limit. Reducing a deposit limit takes effect immediately — we do not make you wait to reduce your spending. Increasing a limit, however, requires a mandatory cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decisions made in the heat of the moment.

Time-Out & Cool-Off Periods

Sometimes, taking a short break from gambling is all that is needed to restore perspective and ensure that the activity remains enjoyable. bk99bet offers a flexible time-out facility that allows you to temporarily suspend your account for a defined period without permanently closing it. During a time-out period, you will be unable to log in to your account, place bets, or deposit funds. Any pending withdrawals will still be processed normally during the time-out period.

bk99bet offers the following time-out durations for players who feel they need a break:

• 24-hour time-out: A one-day break, ideal if you feel you have been playing for too long in a single session or have had an emotionally charged session you wish to step back from.
• 7-day time-out: A one-week break, suitable for players who want a short holiday from gambling to reassess their habits without committing to a longer exclusion.
• 30-day time-out: A one-month break that provides meaningful distance from the platform and allows players time to reflect on their gaming patterns and financial situation.
• Custom time-out: A player-defined period of up to 6 months, for players who want more control over the length of their break than the standard options provide.

To activate a time-out on bk99bet, navigate to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Time-Out and select your preferred duration. The time-out takes effect immediately upon confirmation. Once a time-out is active, it cannot be cancelled before the end of the selected period — this is by design, to protect players from reversing a decision made in their best interest.

Self-Exclusion Programme

For players who feel that their gambling has become — or is at serious risk of becoming — a significant problem, bk99bet offers a comprehensive self-exclusion programme. Self-exclusion is a more serious and longer-term measure than a time-out. When you self-exclude from bk99bet, your account is permanently closed for the duration of the exclusion period, all marketing communications from bk99bet will be immediately suspended, and you will be prevented from creating a new account on the platform for the same duration.

bk99bet offers the following self-exclusion periods:

• 6-month self-exclusion: Suitable for players who recognise a pattern of problem gambling and need an extended, enforced break to seek help and stabilise their situation.
• 1-year self-exclusion: A full calendar year away from bk99bet, recommended for players who have sought or are currently receiving counselling or treatment for gambling-related issues.
• 3-year self-exclusion: For players who need a longer-term commitment to abstaining from gambling on bk99bet while undertaking sustained recovery efforts.
• Permanent self-exclusion (lifetime ban): An indefinite, irreversible exclusion from bk99bet, available to any player who wishes to permanently close their account and never return. This decision is final and cannot be reversed under any circumstances.

To initiate self-exclusion, contact our support team directly via Live Chat or email at support@bk99bet with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request". Our team will process your request immediately, without asking you to justify your decision or persuading you to reconsider. Any funds remaining in your account at the time of self-exclusion will be returned to your nominated bKash, Nagad, or Rocket wallet, or bank account, within the standard withdrawal processing time.

Recognising Problem Gambling

Problem gambling is not always easy to recognise, especially from the inside. It often develops gradually, and many people experiencing gambling-related difficulties are the last to acknowledge them. bk99bet encourages all players to periodically check in with themselves and be honest about whether their gambling remains a healthy leisure activity. Below are some of the most common warning signs that gambling may be becoming a problem:

If you recognise two or more of these signs in your own gambling behaviour, we encourage you to use bk99bet's responsible gaming tools immediately and to consider reaching out to a professional support service. You are not alone — problem gambling affects people across all walks of life in Bangladesh and worldwide, and effective help is available.

Self-Assessment Questionnaire

The following questions are adapted from internationally recognised problem gambling screening tools. Answer honestly and privately — this questionnaire is for your personal reflection only and is not submitted to bk99bet. If you answer "Yes" to three or more of these questions, we strongly encourage you to speak with our support team or a professional gambling counsellor.

Support Resources & Getting Help

If you believe that gambling has become a problem for you or for someone you care about, bk99bet encourages you to seek professional help as soon as possible. Early intervention significantly improves outcomes for people experiencing gambling-related difficulties. Below are the primary channels through which you can access support.

In addition to bk99bet's internal support resources, we encourage players to reach out to independent, professional organisations that specialise in gambling addiction and problem gambling recovery. While specific local helplines in Bangladesh continue to develop, international resources that are accessible from Bangladesh include:

• Gamblers Anonymous (GA): A worldwide fellowship of individuals who share their experience, strength, and hope with each other in order to solve their common problem and help others recover from a gambling problem. GA meetings and resources are accessible online from anywhere in Bangladesh.
• GamCare: A leading provider of information, advice, and support for anyone affected by problem gambling. GamCare offers online counselling and a self-help forum accessible from Bangladesh via their website.
• BeGambleAware: An independent charity providing information, advice, and support to help people make better-informed decisions about their gambling. Their website and helpline resources are available in English and accessible from Bangladesh.
• Local mental health professionals: Licensed psychologists and counsellors in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, and other major cities across Bangladesh are increasingly equipped to support individuals dealing with behavioural addictions, including problem gambling. We encourage players to consult with a qualified mental health professional if gambling is affecting their wellbeing.

bk99bet is committed to working with players who are experiencing difficulties and to providing every possible tool to help them regain control. No player will ever be pressured by bk99bet to continue gambling, and no account closure or self-exclusion request will be questioned or delayed. Your health and wellbeing take absolute priority over any commercial consideration.
