Responsible Gaming — 88tb Puts Players First
Gambling should always be an enjoyable form of entertainment, never a source of financial stress or personal harm. At 88tb, we provide every Bangladeshi player with the tools, information, and support needed to stay in control and play responsibly.
Six Pillars of Responsible Gaming at 88tb
Responsible gaming is not a box-ticking exercise at 88tb — it is woven into everything we do. These six principles guide how we protect players across Bangladesh every day.
Mandatory Age Verification
Every player must verify their age before making a first deposit. We cross-check national ID documents, passports, and other official records to confirm that all active 88tb accounts belong to individuals aged 21 or older. No exceptions are made.
Player-Set Deposit Limits
88tb allows every account holder to set personal daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits measured in Bangladeshi Taka (৳). Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a mandatory 7-day cooling-off period, while decreasing one applies instantly.
Session Time Limits & Reminders
Players can configure session time reminders that alert them when they have been playing for a set duration. Spending too long on any platform, including 88tb, can impair decision-making. Our reminders help you step back, reassess, and decide whether to continue or take a break.
Self-Exclusion Programme
If you feel that gambling is affecting your wellbeing, you can request a self-exclusion at any time. 88tb offers short-term exclusion periods (30 days, 90 days, 6 months) or permanent self-exclusion. During an exclusion period, your account is locked and you cannot deposit, bet, or receive promotional communications.
Time-Out & Cool-Down Feature
A time-out is a shorter, flexible break from the platform — lasting anywhere from 24 hours to 6 weeks. Unlike full self-exclusion, a time-out is ideal for players who simply need a brief pause. Your account is suspended for the chosen period, after which you can log back in normally.
Loss Limit Controls
In addition to deposit limits, 88tb allows players to set maximum loss thresholds over a given period. Once your net losses reach the configured amount, further betting is temporarily suspended for that period. This tool is particularly useful for managing your entertainment budget in Bangladeshi Taka (৳).
How to Use 88tb's Responsible Gaming Tools
All responsible gaming controls are accessible directly from your 88tb account settings. No lengthy forms, no waiting periods for protective measures — most tools activate immediately upon request.
Log In to Your Account
Navigate to the 88tb platform and log in to your registered account. All responsible gaming settings are located in your personal account dashboard under the "Responsible Gaming" tab.
Choose Your Control
Select from deposit limits, loss limits, session time reminders, time-out, or self-exclusion. Each control has a clear description and guidance on when it is most appropriate to use.
Set Your Parameters
Enter your preferred values — for example, a daily deposit limit of ৳2,000 or a session reminder after 60 minutes of play. All amounts use Bangladeshi Taka (৳) for easy budgeting.
Confirm & Activate
Confirm your selection. Protective limits (lower deposit caps, time-outs, self-exclusion) take effect immediately. Increases to existing limits require a 7-day reflection period before activation.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Gambling becomes a problem when it stops being fun and starts causing financial, emotional, or social harm. Being aware of the early warning signs is the first step toward getting help. If several of the following statements apply to you or someone you know, it may be time to reach out for support.
- Spending more money on gambling than you can comfortably afford to lose.
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling activity.
- Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when not gambling.
- Chasing losses by placing larger or more frequent bets to recover previous losses.
- Lying to family members, friends, or colleagues about how much time or money you spend gambling.
- Neglecting work, education, family responsibilities, or personal health because of gambling.
- Using gambling as a way to escape stress, depression, anxiety, or other personal problems.
- Repeatedly trying to cut back on gambling without success.
- Feeling that you need to gamble with increasing amounts of money to feel the same excitement.
- Gambling continues despite serious negative consequences to your finances or relationships.
Ask Yourself These Questions
This short self-assessment is not a clinical diagnostic tool, but it can help you reflect on your relationship with gambling. Answer honestly — your responses are private and for your own benefit only.
Have you ever gambled with money that was set aside for essential expenses such as rent, food, bills, or education fees for your children?
Do you find yourself thinking about gambling frequently during the day, or planning your next betting session when you should be focused on other things?
Have you ever placed a larger bet than you originally intended, or continued gambling for longer than you planned?
Have friends or family members in Dhaka, Chittagong, or elsewhere expressed concern about your gambling habits, or have you hidden the extent of your gambling from them?
After losing money gambling, do you feel a strong urge to return and win it back rather than accepting the loss and moving on?
Has gambling ever caused you significant financial hardship, relationship problems, or negative effects on your mental or physical health?
Have you ever tried to stop or significantly reduce your gambling activity and found it difficult or impossible to do so on your own?
88tb's Responsible Gaming Standards
Beyond the individual tools available to players, 88tb maintains platform-wide responsible gaming standards that apply to every aspect of how we operate. These are not aspirational goals — they are operational commitments that are monitored on an ongoing basis.
No Gambling Advertising to Vulnerable Audiences
88tb does not direct any gambling marketing, promotions, or bonus offers toward individuals who have activated self-exclusion, set deposit limits at minimum levels, or shown behavioural patterns consistent with problem gambling. Our marketing systems flag and exclude such accounts from all promotional communications.
Transparent Odds and Game Return Rates
All games available on the 88tb platform, including slots, live casino tables, and sports betting markets, display accurate return-to-player (RTP) rates and odds information. We believe players deserve clear, honest information to make informed decisions about how they spend their money.
Staff Training on Problem Gambling Recognition
All 88tb customer support staff receive training on identifying indicators of problem gambling in player behaviour. If our team observes patterns that suggest a player may be in difficulty — such as rapidly escalating deposits or distressed communications — our protocol requires proactive outreach to offer responsible gaming resources.
Reality Checks During Sessions
Players who enable the reality check feature receive regular on-screen notifications during active gambling sessions. These notifications display the duration of the current session and net win or loss figures, helping players maintain perspective on their activity in real time rather than in hindsight.
Secure Account Protection Against Unauthorised Access
88tb enforces strong password requirements and offers two-factor authentication (2FA) to prevent unauthorised access to accounts by third parties, including minors sharing a device. Protecting account security is part of our broader commitment to player safety and wellbeing.
