What is self-exclusion and how do I request it?

Self-exclusion is a voluntary programme that blocks your access to abg8 for a set period — from 6 months up to 5 years. To request self-exclusion, contact our support team at support@abg8.ws with the subject line 'Self-Exclusion Request'. Your account will be suspended within 24 hours and you will not be able to reopen it until the exclusion period ends.

Responsible Gaming at abg8 — Play Safe in Bangladesh

Q: I think I have a gambling problem. Where can I get help?

The first step is to contact the abg8 support team at support@abg8.ws and request immediate account restrictions or self-exclusion. You should also speak to a trusted family member or friend. Professional counselling services are available through healthcare providers in Dhaka, Chittagong, and major cities across Bangladesh. Remember, seeking help is always the right decision.

Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At abg8, we believe that online gaming should be a source of fun and entertainment — never a cause of financial stress or personal harm. We are fully committed to promoting responsible gaming practices across our platform for all players in Bangladesh, whether you are betting on cricket, spinning slots, or exploring live casino tables.

Our responsible gaming framework is built around five core pillars: player protection tools, age verification, transparent game information, self-assessment resources, and access to professional support. If at any point you feel that gambling is negatively affecting your life, our team is here to help — reach us at [email protected] and we will assist you promptly.

Important Notice

Gambling involves financial risk. Never wager more than you can comfortably afford to lose. Chasing losses is one of the most common signs of problem gambling. If you find yourself doing this, please make use of our self-exclusion and deposit limit tools immediately.

Player Protection Tools

🛡️ Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits in BDT to keep your spending under control at all times.

💰 Session Budgets

Define a maximum amount you are willing to spend per gaming session before you begin playing.

⏱️ Time-Out Feature

Take a short break from gambling — pause your account for 24 hours, 7 days, or up to 30 days whenever you need it.

🚫 Self-Exclusion

Request a longer self-exclusion period of 6 months to 5 years if you feel you need a more serious break from gaming.

🔒 Account Security

Protect your account with a strong password and never share your login credentials with anyone, including family members.

🆘 24/7 Support

Our support team is available around the clock to help with any concerns about your gaming activity or account status.

Are You Gambling Responsibly? A Self-Check

Honest self-reflection is the first step toward healthy gaming habits. Ask yourself the following questions — if you answer yes to two or more, it may be time to use our player tools or seek additional support.

❓Do you gamble with money you cannot afford to lose, such as rent or bill money?
❓Have you tried to cut back on gambling but found it difficult or impossible?
❓Do you spend more time gambling than you originally intended each session?
❓Have you lied to friends or family about the amount of time or money you spend on gambling?
❓Do you feel restless, irritable, or anxious when you are not gambling?
❓Have you ever borrowed money or sold belongings in order to fund gambling?

If you recognise any of these patterns in your own behaviour, please contact us immediately at [email protected] or use our self-exclusion tool. Seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.

Practical Tips for Healthier Gaming

1

Set a Fixed Budget Before You Play

Decide exactly how much BDT you are comfortable spending before you open any game. Treat this amount as an entertainment cost — like a cinema ticket — not an investment you expect to recover.

2

Use a Timer or Schedule Gaming Sessions

Allocate specific windows of time for gaming and stop when that window ends, regardless of whether you are winning or losing. Phone alarms are a simple and effective tool.

3

Never Chase Your Losses

Losing streaks are a normal part of gambling. Increasing your bets to recover previous losses is one of the most dangerous patterns in problem gambling. If you lose your session budget, log out and walk away.

4

Keep Gambling Separate from Emotions

Avoid gambling when you are stressed, sad, anxious, or under the influence of alcohol. Emotional or impaired states lead to poor decision-making and higher risk of loss. Gaming should always be done with a clear and calm mind.

Protecting Young People and Minors

abg8 has a strict 21+ age policy. We verify player ages during account registration and reserve the right to request official government-issued identification documents from any player at any time. Players found to be under 21 will have their accounts closed and any winnings forfeited immediately. We encourage all adult players to keep their login details completely private to prevent underage access from younger family members, particularly in shared household environments common in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, and across Bangladesh.

If you are aware of a minor attempting to access abg8, please report this immediately to our support team. We take underage gambling extremely seriously and work proactively to prevent it.
