Key Message: Gaming is for entertainment, not a livelihood. At a18k, we see responsible gaming not just as a rule, but as a culture.

1 What is responsible gaming?

Responsible gaming means using gaming as a healthy form of entertainment — not as a way to solve financial problems or escape stress. a18k believes that the true joy of gaming comes when every player plays mindfully and within their limits.

Responsible gaming rests on three principles: knowing your limits, setting boundaries, and sticking to them. On the a18k platform, we actively support you in all three — because your happiness and well-being matter to us more than any business outcome.

Millions of people in Bangladesh enjoy online gaming every day, and for most it's a fun, healthy experience. However, for a small number of people, gaming can become a problem. a18k is committed to playing an active role in preventing that.

Keep in Mind: Responsible gaming does not mean less fun — it means more fun, guaranteed over the long term.

2 Healthy Gaming Habits

Building a few simple habits around responsible gaming on a18k keeps the experience fun every time. Here are our recommendations that every player should follow:

  • Set Your Budget in Advance: Before each session, decide the maximum amount you're willing to spend and stick to that limit.
  • Manage Your Time: Set a fixed time limit for your gaming sessions. Playing for extended periods without a break increases stress.
  • Don't Chase Your Losses: Chasing losses by placing larger bets after a losing streak is dangerous — it's one of the first signs of problematic behavior.
  • Gaming is not your only entertainment: Make time for family, friends, sports, and other hobbies. Don't let gaming be your only source of enjoyment in life.
  • Don't Play Under the Influence: Making clear-headed decisions is easier — choices made under the influence often lead to trouble.
  • Never play with borrowed money: Never place a bet with borrowed money or funds set aside for emergencies.
  • Take regular breaks: Take at least a 10-minute break every hour. Get up, drink some water, take a short walk.

3 Set Betting & Deposit Limits

On the a18k platform, you can set your own betting and deposit limits. This is one of the most effective tools for responsible gaming. Once a limit is set, the system automatically prevents you from exceeding it.

Available limit control features:

  • Daily Deposit Limit: Set a daily cap on how much BDT you can deposit.
  • Weekly Betting Limit: The maximum total amount you can wager in a week.
  • Monthly Loss Limit: The maximum amount you can lose in a month before play is automatically stopped.
  • Session Time Limit: Set a maximum session length for continuous play.

Decreasing a limit takes effect immediately. However, increasing a limit can take 24–72 hours to apply — this is intentional, to protect you from impulsive decisions that could cause harm.

To set limits, go to your a18k account's profile settings and select the "Responsible Gaming" option. Our support team is available 24/7 for any assistance.

4 Signs of Problematic Gaming Behavior

We do not always notice when gaming starts to have a negative impact on our lives. Watch out if you experience any of the following signs:

Financial signs: Borrowing money to play, dipping into emergency funds, lying about finances.

Behavioral signs: Spending excessive time gaming while neglecting work or family.

Psychological Signs: Feeling restless, irritable, or depressed when unable to play.

Social Signs: Hiding gaming activity, withdrawing from family and friends.

If you notice any of these signs, pause and reflect. Take a break if needed, or reach out to our support team.

5 Self-Assessment Questionnaire

Answer the following questions honestly. If most of your answers are yes, it is time to pay closer attention.

1

3

6 Self-Exclusion & Break Options

A18k offers a robust Self-Exclusion feature. Whenever you feel you need a break, you can temporarily or permanently close your account yourself.

Types of Breaks:

  • Cooling Off Period: Account temporarily suspended for anywhere between 24 hours and 30 days.
  • Short-Term Self-Exclusion: Account closure for a period of 1 to 6 months.
  • Long-term Self-Exclusion: From 6 months up to 5 years.
  • Permanent Closure: Permanently closing your account — this action cannot be reversed.

While self-exclusion is active, a18k will stop all promotional communications and block access to the platform. To apply for self-exclusion, contact our support team.

Taking a break is not a sign of weakness — it's a brave and smart decision. a18k fully respects your choice to do so.
