Responsible Gaming at pc88
Gaming should be enjoyable entertainment — never a source of financial stress or harm. pc88 provides the tools, resources, and support you need to play responsibly and stay in control at all times.
Our Pledge
pc88's Commitment to Responsible Gaming
Gambling on pc88 is designed to be a fun, voluntary form of entertainment. The vast majority of our Bangladesh players enjoy cricket betting, live casino, slots, and crash games as a leisure activity without any negative consequences. However, we recognise that for a small number of people, gambling can become a problem — and it is our responsibility to act early, provide the right tools, and connect those players with the help they need.
Every responsible gaming tool on pc88 is available free of charge to all registered players. You do not need to contact support to use them — they are accessible directly from your account settings at any time, day or night. We encourage every player to review these tools and make use of them proactively, before any issue arises.
Age Policy
Minimum Age Requirement — 21 and Above Only
21+
Minimum Age for All Players
pc88 is strictly an adult-only platform. No person under the age of 21 may register, deposit, or play on pc88 under any circumstances.
The 21+ age limit is strictly enforced on pc88. During registration, every player must confirm they are 21 years of age or older. pc88 reserves the right to request documentary proof of age — such as a National Identity Card (NID), passport, or driving licence — at any stage of the account lifecycle, including before processing a withdrawal. Any account found to belong to a person under the age of 21 will be closed immediately, all balances will be voided, and the matter will be referred to the appropriate authorities in Bangladesh.
We strongly encourage parents and guardians in Bangladesh to use parental control software to prevent underage individuals from accessing online gambling sites. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor in your household has opened or accessed a pc88 account, please contact our support team immediately.

Know the Signs
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Gambling becomes a problem when it stops being entertainment and starts causing harm in other areas of your life. The following are common warning signs. If you recognise several of these in yourself or in someone you know, it may be time to seek support.
- Spending more money on gambling than you can comfortably afford — regularly dipping into money earmarked for rent, food, bills, or family needs in Dhaka or elsewhere.
- Chasing losses — continuing to play after losing in order to try to win back what you have lost, often escalating bet sizes in the process.
- Gambling affecting your relationships — arguments with family or friends in Chittagong, Sylhet, or elsewhere about gambling behaviour, time spent, or money lost.
- Feeling the need to keep gambling secret — hiding your activity, lying about the time or money spent, or using a secondary device so others cannot see.
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling — taking loans from friends, family, or financial institutions in Bangladesh to continue playing.
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when not gambling — using gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety, boredom, or personal problems rather than as entertainment.
Stay In Control
Practical Tips for Healthy Gambling Habits
The following habits help most Bangladesh players keep gambling as a fun activity rather than a harmful one. We recommend reviewing these regularly, especially if you find yourself playing more frequently than usual.
- 1Set a strict gambling budget before you start each session and treat it as a fixed entertainment expense — the same way you would budget for a cinema ticket or a meal out in Dhaka. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose.
- 2Use a session timer — either pc88's built-in session reminder tool or a simple alarm on your phone — to cap your playing time. Decide before you start how long you will play, and stop when the timer goes off, regardless of whether you are winning or losing.
- 3Never gamble to recover money you have already lost. Chasing losses is the most common route from recreational gambling to problem gambling. Accept losses as the cost of entertainment and move on.
- 4Avoid gambling when you are feeling stressed, upset, tired, or under the influence of alcohol. Emotional states significantly impair decision-making and make it harder to stick to your pre-set budget and time limits.
- 5Take regular breaks between gambling sessions — ideally at least one full day off between sessions. Use pc88's cooling-off tool if you find it difficult to take breaks voluntarily. Balance gambling with other activities such as cricket, family time, or social events.
Responsible gambling is an ongoing habit, not a one-time decision. Regular self-checks — reviewing how much time and money you have spent over the past week or month — are one of the most effective ways to catch early warning signs before they escalate into a larger problem.
Self-Exclusion
Understanding pc88 Self-Exclusion in Detail
Self-exclusion is the most powerful responsible gaming tool available on pc88. It is designed for players who have reached the conclusion that they need to stop gambling entirely, either temporarily or permanently. When you activate self-exclusion, pc88 will immediately suspend your account, cancel any pending bets, and freeze any remaining balance until the exclusion period ends or until you formally request closure. You will be removed from all pc88 marketing communications immediately.
Self-exclusion periods on pc88 are available as follows: 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanent (indefinite). The minimum self-exclusion period is 6 months; there is no "1 week" or "1 month" self-exclusion — those shorter breaks are covered by the cooling-off tool. During any self-exclusion period, you must not attempt to open a new account on pc88. Doing so is a breach of our Terms and Conditions and will result in immediate account closure and forfeiture of any balance.
