Our Promise to You

Ballysbet believes that gambling should always be a form of entertainment — never a source of financial stress or personal harm. Every tool on this page is free, available 24/7, and takes effect immediately when you request it.

01 Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At Ballysbet, responsible gaming is not just a policy page — it is a core part of how we operate. We genuinely care about the wellbeing of every player who chooses to bet with us, and we have built our platform with player protection at the centre of every decision.

Bangladesh has a growing community of online betting enthusiasts, and Ballysbet is proud to serve that community responsibly. We understand that for the vast majority of players, betting on cricket, football, or spinning a slot is a fun way to add some excitement to the day. But we also know that for a small number of people, gambling can become a problem — and when that happens, Ballysbet wants to be the first platform to help, not the last.

That is why we have invested in a full suite of responsible gaming tools that give you direct control over your betting activity. From daily deposit limits to permanent self-exclusion, every tool is available instantly through your Ballysbet account settings or by contacting our support team at [email protected].

We also train our customer support team to recognise the signs of problem gambling and to respond with empathy and practical help — not judgment. If you ever feel that your betting is getting out of hand, please reach out. We are here to help, not to push you to bet more.

Responsible Gaming Is a Two-Way Street

Ballysbet provides the tools and support — but responsible gaming also requires your active participation. Please use the tools available to you, be honest with yourself about your betting habits, and never bet more than you can comfortably afford to lose.

02 Core Principles

Ballysbet's responsible gaming programme is built on five core principles that guide every decision we make about player protection.

  • Gambling is entertainment, not income. Ballysbet never markets betting as a way to make money or solve financial problems. Every promotion and communication we send is designed to encourage fun, not financial dependency.
  • Players are always in control. Every responsible gaming tool on Ballysbet is player-initiated and takes effect immediately. You do not need to wait for approval to set a limit or take a break.
  • 18+ strictly enforced. Ballysbet uses active age verification at registration and may request additional documentation at any time. No underage player will be permitted to bet on our platform.
  • Support without judgment. Any player who reaches out about a gambling problem will be treated with respect, empathy, and practical assistance — never dismissed or pressured to continue betting.
  • Transparency in all things. Ballysbet clearly displays odds, house edges, and game return-to-player (RTP) percentages so that players can make fully informed decisions before they bet.

03 Responsible Gaming Tools

Ballysbet provides a comprehensive set of responsible gaming tools that are available to every registered player at no cost. Here is a full overview of what is available and how each tool works.

Tool What It Does Takes Effect
Deposit Limit Caps the amount you can deposit per day, week, or month Immediately
Loss Limit Stops you from losing more than a set amount in a given period Immediately
Wager Limit Limits the total amount you can bet per day, week, or month Immediately
Session Time Limit Automatically logs you out after a set period of play Next session
Reality Check Sends you a reminder of how long you have been playing and how much you have spent Immediately
Cool-Off Period Temporarily suspends your account for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days Immediately
Self-Exclusion Permanently or long-term closes your account and blocks re-registration Immediately

All of these tools can be activated through your Ballysbet account settings under the "Responsible Gaming" section, or by contacting our support team directly at [email protected]. Reducing a limit takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a 7-day cooling-off period to protect you from impulsive decisions.

04 How to Set Your Limits

Setting limits on Ballysbet is straightforward. Follow these steps to put responsible gaming controls in place on your account right now.

01
Log In to Ballysbet

Go to ballysbet.org and log in to your registered account using your email and password.

02
Open Account Settings

Click your profile icon in the top right corner and select "Account Settings" from the dropdown menu.

03
Select Responsible Gaming

Navigate to the "Responsible Gaming" tab in your account settings panel.

04
Choose Your Limit Type

Select the type of limit you want — deposit, loss, wager, or session time — and choose daily, weekly, or monthly.

05
Enter Your Amount

Type in the limit amount in BDT. Make sure it reflects what you can genuinely afford to spend on betting.

06
Confirm — Done

Click "Save Limit". Your limit takes effect immediately. You will receive a confirmation email at your registered address.

Important: Increasing Limits

If you want to increase an existing limit, Ballysbet applies a mandatory 7-day waiting period before the increase takes effect. This cooling-off period is there to protect you from making impulsive decisions in the heat of the moment. Decreasing a limit always takes effect immediately.

05 Self-Exclusion

If you feel that you need a longer break from betting — or that you want to stop permanently — Ballysbet's self-exclusion programme is the right tool for you. Self-exclusion is a serious step, and we treat it with the seriousness it deserves.

When you self-exclude from Ballysbet, your account is immediately suspended. You will not be able to log in, place bets, or make deposits for the duration of your exclusion period. Any pending bets at the time of exclusion will be settled normally, and your remaining balance will be returned to you via your registered payment method.

  • 6-month exclusion — a medium-term break for players who need time away from betting to reassess their habits.
  • 1-year exclusion — a longer break for players who feel their gambling has become a significant concern.
  • 5-year exclusion — for players who need an extended period away from all online betting activity.
  • Permanent exclusion — a lifetime ban from Ballysbet. This cannot be reversed under any circumstances.

During any self-exclusion period, Ballysbet will suppress all marketing communications to your email and phone number. We will also take reasonable steps to prevent you from re-registering a new account. If you attempt to open a new account during a self-exclusion period, please be aware that any winnings generated on that account may be forfeited.

Self-Exclusion Cannot Be Reversed Early

Once a self-exclusion is activated on Ballysbet, it cannot be shortened or cancelled before the chosen period ends. This is intentional — it is there to protect you when you need it most. Please think carefully before choosing your exclusion period.

To activate self-exclusion, go to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Self-Exclusion, or email [email protected] with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request". Our team will process your request within 24 hours — usually much faster.

06 Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually and is not always easy to recognise in yourself. Here are some of the most common warning signs that your betting may have moved beyond healthy entertainment. If you recognise several of these in your own behaviour, please reach out to our support team or use the self-exclusion tool immediately.

You are spending more money on betting than you originally planned, and finding it hard to stick to a budget.

You are chasing losses — betting more to try to win back money you have already lost.

Betting is taking up a significant amount of your time, and you are neglecting work, family, or other responsibilities as a result.

You feel anxious, irritable, or restless when you are not able to bet.

You are borrowing money, selling possessions, or using money set aside for essential expenses to fund your betting.

You are hiding your betting activity from family members or lying about how much you have spent.

You have tried to cut down or stop betting before but found it very difficult to do so.

You are using betting as a way to escape from stress, depression, or other personal problems.

You Are Not Alone

Problem gambling affects people from all walks of life. Recognising the signs is the first and most important step. Ballysbet's support team is available 24/7 and will treat your situation with complete confidentiality and respect.

07 Quick Self-Assessment

Answer these questions honestly to get a quick sense of whether your betting habits are healthy. This is not a clinical assessment — it is a simple tool to help you reflect on your relationship with gambling.

Q1 Do you sometimes bet more than you intended to when you started a session?
Q2 Have you ever tried to win back money you lost by placing more bets?
Q3 Has anyone close to you ever expressed concern about your betting habits?
Q4 Do you ever feel guilty or ashamed after a betting session?
Q5 Have you ever missed work, school, or a family commitment because of betting?
Q6 Do you find it difficult to stop betting once you have started, even when you are losing?

If you answered "Yes" to two or more of these questions, it may be worth taking a closer look at your betting habits. Consider setting a deposit limit or taking a cool-off break. If you answered "Yes" to four or more, we strongly encourage you to contact our support team at [email protected] or activate self-exclusion. You deserve support — and Ballysbet is here to provide it.

08 Protecting Minors

Ballysbet operates a strict 18+ policy. No person under the age of 18 is permitted to register, deposit, or place bets on our platform under any circumstances. We take this obligation extremely seriously and enforce it through multiple layers of verification.

  • All new registrations require a date of birth confirmation. Any account where the stated age is under 18 is rejected immediately.
  • Ballysbet may request government-issued ID documents at any point to verify a player's age. Accounts that cannot be verified will be suspended until verification is complete.
  • If a minor is found to have registered on Ballysbet, their account will be closed immediately, all deposits returned, and any winnings forfeited.
  • We recommend that parents and guardians use parental control software to prevent minors from accessing online betting sites. Tools such as Net Nanny and Qustodio can help block access to gambling platforms.
Report Underage Access

If you believe a minor has accessed or registered on Ballysbet, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. We will investigate and act within 24 hours.

09 Get Support

If you are struggling with your gambling, you do not have to face it alone. Ballysbet's support team is available around the clock, and we can connect you with the help you need — whether that is activating a tool on your account or simply having someone to talk to.

  • Email: [email protected] — for responsible gaming requests, self-exclusion, and limit changes.
  • Live Chat: Available 24/7 directly on the Ballysbet platform. Click the chat icon in the bottom right corner of any page.
  • Response Time: Responsible gaming requests are treated as high priority and are typically actioned within 1–2 hours.

All responsible gaming communications are handled with complete confidentiality. Your request will never be shared with other players or used to influence your account in any negative way.

10 Frequently Asked Questions

Deposit limits take effect immediately once you save them in your account settings. You will receive a confirmation email. If you want to reduce your limit, it happens right away. If you want to increase it, there is a mandatory 7-day waiting period.

No. Once a self-exclusion is activated on Ballysbet, it cannot be shortened or cancelled before the chosen period expires. This is a deliberate protection measure. After the exclusion period ends, you may contact support to request account reactivation — but there is no obligation to do so.

Any remaining balance in your Ballysbet account at the time of self-exclusion will be returned to you via your registered bKash, Nagad, or Rocket account. Pending bets will be settled normally and any winnings included in your final balance.

No. During any cool-off period or self-exclusion, Ballysbet will immediately suppress all marketing emails, SMS messages, and push notifications to your registered contact details. If you continue to receive marketing after activating a cool-off, please contact [email protected] immediately.

Yes, completely free. Every responsible gaming tool on Ballysbet — deposit limits, loss limits, session timers, cool-off periods, and self-exclusion — is available to all registered players at no cost, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

A reality check is a pop-up notification that appears on your screen at a set interval — for example, every 30 minutes or every hour — reminding you how long you have been playing and how much you have spent or won in that session. You can set your preferred interval in Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Reality Check.
Our Player Protection Features

Six tools built into every Ballysbet account — free, instant, and always available.

Deposit & Loss Limits

Set a hard cap on how much you deposit or lose per day, week, or month. Once the limit is reached, Ballysbet automatically blocks further deposits until the period resets — no exceptions.

Session Time Controls

Choose how long each betting session can last. When your time is up, Ballysbet logs you out automatically. Pair this with a reality check reminder for maximum awareness during play.

Cool-Off Breaks

Need a short break without committing to full self-exclusion? A cool-off period suspends your account for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days — giving you space to step back and reset.

Self-Exclusion

For players who need a longer or permanent break, self-exclusion closes your account immediately for 6 months, 1 year, 5 years, or permanently. Your balance is returned in full.

Reality Check Alerts

Stay aware of your session with regular pop-up reminders showing your total time played and net spend. A simple but powerful tool to keep your betting in perspective.

Age Verification

Ballysbet enforces strict 18+ verification at registration and may request ID documents at any time. Underage accounts are closed immediately with all deposits returned.
