Why Responsible Gaming Matters at 88ft
At 88ft, we believe responsible gaming is more than a policy — it's a commitment. We want every member to experience gaming as something enjoyable and safe. Responsible gaming means knowing your limits, staying within them, and reaching out for help when you need it.
Millions of gamers in Bangladesh spend time on online platforms every day. Many of them use gaming as a form of entertainment, which is completely normal. However, in some cases gaming habits can spiral out of control. 88ft's responsible gaming program helps you recognize those moments and make the right decisions.
Our platform offers a range of responsible gaming tools — from setting deposit limits to self-exclusion. 88ft always wants you to play with a healthy mindset and keep gaming as a small, enjoyable part of your life.
Core Responsible Gaming Tools
88ft gives you industry-leading tools to stay in control of your gaming.
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly maximum deposit limit. Limits take effect immediately once set, but increasing a limit requires a 24-hour waiting period.
Set a limit on how much you are willing to lose within a given period. Once that limit is reached, gaming will be stopped automatically.
Set a limit on how long you play in a single session. Once the time is up, the platform will remind you to take a break.
Take a voluntary break ranging from 1 day to 6 weeks. During this period, no gaming activity will be possible on your account.
Apply for a permanent self-exclusion lasting from 6 months up to 5 years. During this period, your account will be completely inactive.
Periodic pop-up notifications will remind you how long you have been playing and how much you have spent.
Responsible Gaming Principles
Responsible gaming at 88ft is more than following rules — it's a mindset. Keeping these core principles in mind will make every gaming session an enjoyable one.
- See gaming as entertainment, not a source of income — that is the first principle of responsible gaming.
- Decide in advance the maximum amount you are willing to spend before placing bets in each game.
- Do not place larger bets to recover what you have lost — this is known as "chasing losses" and it is very dangerous.
- Take regular breaks between gaming sessions and spend time with family and friends.
- Avoid gaming under the influence of alcohol or any other substance.
- Never place bets using borrowed money or funds meant for bills.
- Make use of responsible gaming tools regularly — it's not a sign of weakness, it's the smart thing to do.
How to Recognize Problem Gaming
Staying aware of your own gaming behaviour is an important part of responsible gaming. Watch out for the following signs.
- You are trying to win back money by continuing to play after a loss.
- Lying about gaming or hiding it from family.
- Feeling restless or irritable when not gaming.
- Gaming is affecting your work, studies, or social life.
- Taking on debt or skipping important bills to cover gaming expenses.
- You have been trying to cut back on gaming but have not been able to.
- Thinking about gaming constantly.
