Responsible Gaming at 80bd —
Play Smart, Stay in Control
At 80bd, we are committed to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for every player in Bangladesh. Our responsible gaming framework gives you the tools, resources, and guidance you need to keep your gaming experience positive — always on your terms.
Our Commitment
Gaming Should Always Be Fun, Not a Problem
80bd was built for entertainment. Whether you are following Bangladesh Tigers in a BPL match, spinning slots from Pragmatic Play, or joining an Evolution Gaming live casino table, the experience should remain enjoyable, controlled, and well within your personal boundaries. We recognise that for a small number of people, gambling can shift from entertainment to something more harmful — and we take that seriously.
Our responsible gaming programme is built on three principles: prevention, meaning we enforce strict age verification and provide proactive tools before problems develop; intervention, meaning we actively monitor for signs of harmful behaviour and reach out to at-risk players; and support, meaning we direct players to the right resources and make it easy to access help at any point.
Every 80bd player in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, or anywhere across Bangladesh has access to the full suite of responsible gaming tools described on this page — free of charge, available 24 hours a day, and without any impact on your account standing if you choose to use them.
80bd operates under a strict responsible gaming framework that includes mandatory age verification for all new accounts, proactive responsible gaming monitoring, and a full toolkit of player-controlled safety features.
Gambling should never be treated as a way to earn money, pay bills, or recover financial losses. Every game on 80bd is a form of entertainment with a house edge. Only ever bet amounts you can afford to lose without any impact on your household finances or daily responsibilities.
All players must be 21 years of age or older to register and play on 80bd. Age is verified during the KYC process. Any account found to belong to a minor will be immediately suspended and all funds returned to the deposit source.
Player Safety Tools
Six Tools to Keep Your 80bd Experience Healthy
Every one of these tools is available to all registered 80bd players at no cost. They are designed to give you meaningful control over how, when, and how much you play.
Set a maximum deposit amount on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once your chosen limit is reached, 80bd will block any further deposits for that period. Limits can be lowered immediately; requests to raise a limit take effect only after a 48-hour cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decisions. You can set or adjust your deposit limit at any time by contacting [email protected].
Define how long you want each gaming session to last. When your session time is up, 80bd will notify you and prompt you to take a break. You can set session time limits from as short as 30 minutes to a full day. Regular breaks are one of the single most effective ways to maintain perspective and avoid chasing losses during extended gaming sessions.
Enable periodic reality check notifications that remind you of how long you have been playing and your net win or loss for the current session. These pop-up reminders are sent at intervals you choose — every 15, 30, or 60 minutes — and are designed to keep you grounded and help you make conscious, informed decisions about whether to continue playing or log out.
If you feel you need a short break from 80bd, you can activate a time-out period of 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or up to 6 weeks. During a time-out, your account is suspended and you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. You can still withdraw any remaining balance during your time-out period. All marketing communications are also paused during time-out.
For players who feel that gambling has become a serious problem, 80bd offers self-exclusion for periods of 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanently. Self-exclusion is immediate and irreversible for its chosen duration. During self-exclusion, your account is fully closed, all promotional communications are stopped, and attempts to re-register will be declined. To request self-exclusion, email [email protected] immediately.
In addition to deposit limits, 80bd allows you to set a maximum loss threshold on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once your net loss for the chosen period reaches your set limit, further play is suspended until the period resets. Loss limits are a powerful complement to deposit limits, giving you a second layer of financial protection against runaway losses during an unlucky streak.
Getting Started
How to Activate Responsible Gaming Tools on 80bd
Setting up responsible gaming protections on your 80bd account is straightforward. All tools can be requested at any time — you do not need to be in crisis to use them. We encourage every player to set at least a deposit limit and a session time limit when they first register.
To activate any responsible gaming tool, email [email protected] with the subject line "Responsible Gaming Request". Clearly state which tool you want to activate and the specific parameters (e.g., daily deposit limit of ৳2,000; 30-day self-exclusion). Our team operates Bangladesh Standard Time (BST, UTC+6) and will action your request promptly.
Access your account via the 80bd Login page. Make sure you are using your registered email address and password. If you have forgotten your credentials, use the account recovery option or contact [email protected] for assistance.
Review the six responsible gaming tools listed on this page and decide which one best addresses your current situation — whether that is a simple deposit limit, a time-out, or a full self-exclusion. If you are unsure, our support team can help you choose the most appropriate option.
Email [email protected] with your request. Include your registered account email address, the tool you want activated, and any specific parameters (e.g., limit amount, exclusion duration). Requests for immediate self-exclusion and time-out are actioned as a priority — typically within one hour of receipt during business hours.
80bd will send you an email confirmation once your responsible gaming tool has been activated, specifying the parameters applied and the duration. Keep this confirmation for your records. If you do not receive a confirmation within 2 hours of submitting an urgent request, follow up by emailing [email protected] again.
Responsible gaming is an ongoing process, not a one-time action. Regularly review your limits and usage patterns. If your circumstances change, contact 80bd to update your settings. Remember: requests to increase limits or end a time-out early are subject to mandatory cooling-off periods to protect your long-term wellbeing.
Know the Signs
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Being aware of the early warning signs is the first step toward getting back in control. If any of the following apply to you or someone you know, we encourage you to reach out to 80bd support or a professional counselling service immediately.
- Spending more money on gambling than you originally planned or can comfortably afford.
- Chasing losses — continuing to gamble in an attempt to win back money you have already lost.
- Gambling with money intended for essential expenses such as rent, food, bills, or your family's needs.
- Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when you are unable to gamble or when trying to cut down.
- Lying to friends or family members about how much time or money you spend gambling.
- Neglecting work, study, family responsibilities, or personal relationships because of gambling.
- Borrowing money, selling possessions, or taking on debt specifically to fund gambling activity.
- Using gambling as a way to escape stress, depression, anxiety, or other emotional difficulties.
- Feeling unable to stop or take a break, even when you want to or have decided to.
Self-Assessment
Ask Yourself These Questions
Honest self-reflection is a powerful tool. Read through the following questions and answer them truthfully. If you answer "yes" to two or more of these questions, we strongly recommend using one of 80bd's responsible gaming tools or seeking external support.
Please contact 80bd support at [email protected] to discuss self-exclusion or cooling-off options. You do not need to face this alone — help is available and requesting support is a sign of strength, not weakness.
In Depth
Understanding Each 80bd Safety Tool
A closer look at how each responsible gaming feature works in practice, including how to activate it and what to expect.
A deposit limit caps the total amount you can transfer into your 80bd account within a specified timeframe — daily, weekly, or monthly. The limit applies to all payment methods combined, including bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and Upay. For example, if you set a daily deposit limit of ৳1,000, 80bd will decline any deposit that would cause your total deposits for that calendar day to exceed ৳1,000.
Self-exclusion is the most comprehensive responsible gaming tool available on 80bd. When you self-exclude, your account is immediately suspended for the duration you specify — 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanently. During this period you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. All marketing communications are permanently stopped. Withdrawal of existing balances remains possible. Self-exclusion cannot be reversed before the chosen period ends.
A time-out is a shorter, temporary suspension of your account designed for players who need a brief break without committing to a full self-exclusion. Time-out periods range from 24 hours to 6 weeks. Unlike self-exclusion, a time-out expires automatically at the end of the chosen period, after which your account reverts to normal standing. You may still withdraw your balance during a time-out.
Session time limits cap how long a single login session can last before 80bd prompts you to take a break. Loss limits set a ceiling on the net losses you can incur over a defined period. Both types of limits work together to ensure that no single session and no single period of play can spiral beyond what you set as your personal acceptable range. These are configurable separately and can coexist with deposit limits.
Child Safety
Protecting Minors from Online Gambling
80bd enforces a strict minimum age of 21 years for all registered players. We verify age during the KYC onboarding process and reserve the right to request additional documentation at any time. Any account confirmed to belong to a minor is immediately suspended and all funds are returned.
If you share a device with younger family members, we strongly recommend taking the following practical steps to prevent underage access to your 80bd account and to online gambling content in general.
If you suspect that a minor has accessed an 80bd account — whether your own or otherwise — please contact [email protected] immediately. We will investigate the matter promptly and take all appropriate action.
Always protect your phone and computer with a PIN, password, fingerprint lock, or face recognition so that children cannot access your device — and therefore your 80bd account — without your knowledge.
Do not share your 80 bd username, password, or account PIN with anyone, including family members. Use a strong, unique password that cannot be easily guessed, and enable two-factor authentication if available on your account.
Consider installing parental control software on shared devices to block access to gambling-related websites. Tools such as Net Nanny, Qustodio, or built-in screen time features on Android and iOS can restrict access to online gambling content for younger users.
Always log out of your 80bd account when you have finished playing, especially on shared or family devices. Do not save your login credentials in the browser on any shared device. Clear your browser history and cookies if others have access to the same browser profile.

Golden Rules for Responsible Play at 80bd
Following these principles will help ensure that gambling on 80bd remains a fun and sustainable activity — not a source of stress or financial difficulty.
Decide in advance how much money you are comfortable spending on entertainment for the session, and treat that amount as your maximum. Never gamble with money allocated for rent, food, utilities, EMI payments, or any other essential expense. Once your entertainment budget is gone, stop playing — do not top up to chase what you have lost.
Every game on 80bd — whether it is a Pragmatic Play slot, a cricket betting market, or an Evolution Gaming live table — has a built-in house edge. This means that over a large number of sessions, the platform will always return less than 100% of the total wagered. No betting strategy, system, or "hot streak" can change this mathematical reality in the long run.
Approach gambling on 80bd the same way you would any other form of paid entertainment — a cinema ticket, a restaurant meal, or a cricket match ticket. The cost is the price of the experience itself. Any winnings are a bonus, not an expectation. This mindset makes it far easier to maintain healthy limits and walk away when the session is over.
Extended, uninterrupted gambling sessions impair judgment and make it harder to recognise when you are no longer enjoying yourself. Schedule regular breaks — step away from the screen, have a drink of water, stretch, and check in with how you are actually feeling. If you are frustrated, tired, or emotionally upset, stop playing immediately and return another day.
Chasing losses — increasing your bets or extending your session in an attempt to recover money you have already lost — is one of the most dangerous gambling behaviours. It rarely works, almost always makes the situation worse, and is a strong early indicator of problem gambling. If you have hit your loss limit for the day, accept the outcome and log out.
If you feel that gambling is affecting your relationships, finances, or mental health, talk to a friend, family member, or trusted person in your life. You do not need to be in a crisis to have this conversation. Sometimes simply voicing your concerns out loud is enough to gain perspective — and the people who care about you will want to help.
Get Help
You Are Not Alone — Support Is Available
If gambling is affecting your quality of life, your finances, or your relationships, reaching out for help is the most important step you can take. 80bd takes every responsible gaming request seriously, and our support team is here to help you access the right tools quickly.

Gamblers Anonymous is a free, peer-support fellowship for people who believe they have a gambling problem. Meetings are held worldwide, including in parts of South Asia. The GA website provides resources, literature, and information on finding meetings or connecting with a sponsor. Their 20-question self-assessment is a widely recognised screening tool.
The National Institute of Mental Health in Dhaka provides psychiatric and psychological services to Bangladeshi citizens. If gambling-related stress, anxiety, or depression is affecting your mental health, a referral to a qualified mental health professional via NIMH or a private practitioner can be highly beneficial alongside practical account-level tools.
Kaan Pete Roi is a volunteer-run emotional support service operating in Bangladesh. If you are feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, or distressed as a result of gambling or any other life situation, speaking with a trained volunteer listener can provide immediate emotional relief and help you take the next step toward professional support.
Your regular doctor, a counsellor, or a community health worker in your area can provide a confidential assessment and refer you to appropriate specialist services. Do not hesitate to raise gambling as a topic with your healthcare provider — problem gambling is a recognised health condition and there is no stigma in seeking professional help for it.
