Responsible Gaming
at hg99

hg99 is committed to providing a safe, fair, and controlled gaming environment for all players in Bangladesh. Our responsible gaming tools are designed to keep you in control — at all times, on your terms.

21+ Players Only Self-Exclusion Available 24/7 Support Deposit Limit Controls
21 +

Strictly 21+ — No Exceptions

hg99 is an adults-only platform. All players must be at least 21 years of age to register, deposit, and play. We enforce mandatory age verification (KYC) for all accounts before withdrawal privileges are granted. If you are under 21, please do not attempt to register. If you believe an underage individual has accessed the Platform, contact us immediately at [email protected]. Gambling is entertainment — it is not suitable for children or teenagers.


Tools Built to Keep You in Control

hg99 offers a comprehensive suite of responsible gaming tools. Each tool is available to all registered players at no cost and can be activated instantly through your account or by contacting our support team.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum deposit amount on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis in BDT. Once your chosen limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Limits can be lowered immediately — increases take a 24-hour cooling-off period to take effect, protecting you from impulsive decisions.

Session Time Limits

Define how long a single gaming session can last. When your limit is reached, you will receive an on-screen reminder and the option to log out. This tool is especially useful for players who lose track of time during extended cricket betting or slot sessions.

Time-Out / Cooling-Off

Take a short break from hg99 with a time-out period ranging from 24 hours to 6 weeks. During a time-out, your account is fully suspended — you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. The tool is instant and requires no support intervention to activate.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel that gambling is negatively affecting your life, self-exclusion allows you to permanently or long-term close your hg99 account. Self-exclusion periods start from 6 months and can be set to permanent. During self-exclusion, you will not receive any promotional communications from hg99.

Loss Limits

Cap the maximum amount you can lose within a set time period. When the loss threshold is hit, your account is restricted from further bets until the period resets. This tool runs alongside deposit limits to give you a comprehensive financial safety net during your hg99 sessions.

Reality Checks

Enable periodic on-screen notifications that show you a summary of your current session — time elapsed, amount wagered, and net result. Reality checks provide an honest snapshot of your session and prompt you to decide whether to continue, set a limit, or log out.

Activating any responsible gaming tool on hg99 takes less than two minutes. No lengthy forms, no waiting periods for protective measures — your wellbeing comes first. Here is how to get started:

Recognising Problem Gambling

Gambling is a popular form of entertainment for millions of players across Bangladesh. For the vast majority, it remains a fun, controlled activity. However, for some individuals, gambling can develop into a pattern that negatively affects their finances, relationships, and overall wellbeing.

Problem gambling is not a matter of willpower or character — it is a recognised condition that requires support. hg99 takes problem gambling seriously and actively monitors account activity for patterns that may indicate a player is at risk.

Common Warning Signs

  • Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose, including rent, bills, or food money
  • Chasing losses — continuing to bet in an attempt to recover previous losses
  • Feeling unable to stop or reduce gambling despite wanting to
  • Hiding gambling activity from family, friends, or colleagues
  • Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
  • Gambling affecting your work performance, studies, or family responsibilities
  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when not gambling
  • Gambling as a way to escape stress, loneliness, or emotional difficulties
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you care about, please reach out to hg99 support or use our self-exclusion tool immediately. Early intervention is the most effective approach.

Ask Yourself These Questions

The following questions are designed to help you honestly assess your relationship with gambling. If you answer "yes" to three or more questions, we strongly encourage you to use our responsible gaming tools or contact our support team.

Responsible Gaming Self-Check

Answer honestly — your responses are private and for your personal reflection only.

Q1
Have you ever spent more money on gambling than you originally planned for that session?
Q2
Have you felt the need to place increasingly larger bets to experience the same level of excitement?
Q3
Have you returned to gambling the day after a loss with the intention of winning back what you lost?
Q4
Have you ever lied to a family member or friend about how much time or money you spend gambling?
Q5
Have you ever missed work, skipped a family commitment, or neglected responsibilities because of gambling?
Q6
Have you ever considered gambling as your primary source of income or a solution to financial difficulties?
Q7
Have you experienced feelings of restlessness, anxiety, or irritability when trying to cut back on or stop gambling?
Q8
Have you ever borrowed money, taken a loan, or sold personal belongings specifically to fund gambling activity?
If you answered "yes" to three or more of the above, please contact our support team at [email protected] or activate self-exclusion from your account settings right away.

hg99's Approach to Responsible Gaming

At hg99, responsible gaming is not a regulatory checkbox — it is a core operating principle. Since launching as Bangladesh's trusted online casino and sports betting platform, hg99 has built its responsible gaming framework from the ground up with one objective: ensuring that every player can enjoy our 500+ games and live cricket betting markets in a way that is safe, sustainable, and genuinely fun.

We understand that the vast majority of our players across Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, Barisal, Rangpur, Mymensingh, and Cox's Bazar approach hg99 as a form of entertainment — not as a financial strategy. Our tools and policies are designed to reinforce that healthy relationship and to provide a safety net for the small number of players who may need additional support.

Player Protection as Default Design

Responsible gaming features are not hidden away in obscure settings menus at hg99. They are prominently surfaced in your account dashboard and actively presented to new players during the onboarding process. When you register with hg99, you are encouraged to set deposit limits from day one — before you make your first deposit via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay. This proactive approach means that protective limits are in place before any real-money activity begins, rather than being retrofitted after a problem has emerged.

hg99 also runs an internal monitoring programme that tracks account-level patterns associated with problem gambling — including rapid session increases, loss-chasing behaviour, frequent late-night sessions, and sudden spikes in deposit frequency. When our system flags a concern, a member of our player safety team will proactively reach out to the account holder to check in and offer support tools. This is not an intrusion — it is hg99 living up to its duty of care to every player on the Platform.

Protecting Young People in Bangladesh

hg99 enforces a strict 21+ age policy across all of its products — casino games, live dealer tables, slots, crash games, and sports betting markets including BPL, IPL, T20 World Cup, and Bangladesh Tigers matches. Players are required to verify their age during the KYC process before any withdrawals are processed. Any account found to be held by a person under 21 years of age is immediately suspended and all associated funds are handled in accordance with applicable law.

We strongly encourage parents and guardians throughout Bangladesh to make use of parental control software to restrict access to online gambling platforms on shared devices. Recommended tools include Net Nanny and Google Family Link, which can be configured to block gambling-related content. If you believe a minor has accessed hg99, contact us immediately at [email protected] — we will treat the matter with urgency and full confidentiality.

Gambling is Entertainment, Not Income

hg99 is transparent about one fundamental truth: the house maintains a mathematical edge across all games over time. Slots, table games, and crash games are designed as entertainment products — not investment vehicles or income sources. Sports betting requires skill and research, but outcomes are never guaranteed. Every player should approach hg99 with a fixed entertainment budget they are fully prepared to lose, just as they would budget for a cinema ticket, a meal out, or a cricket match ticket. Never gamble with money that is earmarked for essential expenses such as rent, utilities, food, school fees, or loan repayments.

Supporting Responsible Gaming in Bangladesh

hg99 recognises that problem gambling support infrastructure in Bangladesh continues to develop. We encourage any player who feels that gambling is becoming a concern to speak openly with a trusted family member, friend, or healthcare professional. Mental health and counselling services are available through various organisations and hospital networks across Bangladesh's major cities. You do not need to be in crisis to seek a conversation — reaching out early makes a meaningful difference. hg99 can provide signposting to general mental health resources upon request through [email protected].

hg99 commits to reviewing and updating its responsible gaming tools, policies, and internal monitoring systems on an ongoing basis. Our goal is to be the most player-safe online gaming platform serving the Bangladesh market — and we hold ourselves accountable to that standard every day.
