999a Responsible Gaming —
Play Smart, Stay in Control
Gambling at 999a is meant to be entertainment — not a source of stress or financial hardship. We provide every player with practical tools to manage their activity, set personal limits, and step away when needed. Your wellbeing matters more than any bet.
Responsible gaming is not an afterthought at 999a — it is built into the platform. Every player account comes with access to limit-setting tools, cooling-off periods, and self-exclusion options from day one.
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit caps in BDT to keep your spending within a budget you are comfortable with. Limits take effect immediately when reduced and require a 7-day cooling-off period to increase.
Need a short break? Activate a time-out of 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out your account is suspended for play while withdrawals of existing balances remain accessible.
For players who need a longer break, 999a offers self-exclusion periods of 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or permanent closure. During self-exclusion, your account is fully suspended and promotional communications are stopped.
Your account dashboard shows a full history of deposits, withdrawals, bets placed, and session durations. Reviewing your activity regularly helps you stay aware of your gambling patterns and spot any concerning trends early.
Our support team is available around the clock, every day of the year. Whether you need to activate a limit, request self-exclusion, or simply talk to someone about a gambling concern, we are here to help without judgement.
1. Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
At 999a, we believe that gambling should always be a form of entertainment — enjoyable, social, and firmly within a player's control. We serve players across Bangladesh, from Dhaka and Chittagong to Sylhet, Rajshahi, Khulna, and beyond, and we take our responsibility to every one of those players seriously.
Responsible gaming is not a box we tick to satisfy a policy requirement. It is a core principle that shapes how we design our platform, how we train our support staff, and how we respond when a player signals — directly or indirectly — that they may need help. We have invested in tools, training, and processes specifically designed to detect signs of problem gambling early and intervene constructively.
999a will never pressure players to gamble beyond their means. We do not use aggressive bonus mechanics designed to encourage compulsive betting. We do not suppress withdrawal requests to keep balances on the platform. Our business succeeds when our players have a positive, sustainable experience — and that is only possible if responsible gaming sits at the heart of everything we do.
2. Age Restriction — 18+ Only
999a operates a strict 18+ age policy. Gambling is an adult activity and is not suitable for anyone under the age of 18, regardless of parental consent. This requirement applies to all players based anywhere in Bangladesh, without exception.
During the account registration process, all players are required to confirm that they are aged 18 or over. 999a further verifies player age through our Know Your Customer (KYC) identity verification process, which requires submission of a valid government-issued ID (such as a National Identity Card or passport) confirming date of birth before withdrawals can be processed.
Any account found to belong to a person under the age of 18 will be suspended immediately, all funds will be frozen pending investigation, and the account will be permanently closed. Any winnings accumulated by an underage player will be forfeited. 999a reserves the right to report underage gambling activity to relevant authorities where required by law.
All players must submit a government-issued ID before their first withdrawal. 999a's verification team manually reviews all submitted documents. Accounts that cannot be verified as 18+ are suspended until verification is completed.
If you share a device with household members under 18, we strongly recommend logging out of your 999a account after each session and enabling your device's parental control features to prevent access to gambling websites.
3. Recognising Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually and is often difficult for the affected person to recognise in themselves. The following warning signs are commonly associated with gambling that has moved beyond healthy recreation. If you recognise several of these patterns in your own behaviour, we encourage you to reach out to our support team or to an independent helpline immediately.
- Spending more money on gambling than you can afford to lose, or gambling with money set aside for essential expenses such as rent, food, or school fees
- Feeling a persistent urge to increase the size of your bets in order to experience the same level of excitement
- Chasing losses — continuing to gamble in an attempt to win back money that you have already lost
- Feeling anxious, restless, or irritable when you are not gambling or when you try to cut down
- Lying to family members, friends, or colleagues about the amount of time or money you spend gambling
- Borrowing money, selling assets, or taking out loans specifically to fund gambling activity
- Neglecting work responsibilities, household duties, or personal relationships because of time spent gambling
- Using gambling as a primary way to cope with stress, depression, loneliness, or boredom
- Making repeated unsuccessful attempts to reduce, control, or stop gambling
- Experiencing strong feelings of guilt or remorse after a gambling session, but returning to gamble again shortly after
4. Player Protection Tools
999a provides every registered player with a comprehensive suite of responsible gaming tools accessible directly from your account settings. These tools are designed to give you full control over how much you spend, how long you play, and how often you access the platform. You do not need to justify or explain your decision to use any of these tools — they are available unconditionally.
Set a maximum amount you are willing to deposit over a defined period — daily (24-hour rolling window), weekly (7-day rolling window), or monthly (calendar month). Once your limit is reached, no further deposits will be accepted until the period resets. You can reduce your limit at any time and the new lower limit takes effect immediately. Requests to increase a deposit limit are subject to a mandatory 7-day cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decisions during a session.
Set a maximum net loss threshold over a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Once your net loss across all bets reaches this threshold, you will be automatically logged out and locked out of play for the remainder of that period. Loss limits are an effective tool for players who want to ensure that a bad run of results does not spiral beyond a predetermined affordable level.
Set a maximum session duration — from 30 minutes to 8 hours. When your session time limit is reached, you will receive a notification and be prompted to log out. This tool is particularly useful for players who find that time passes quickly during live cricket betting or live casino sessions, and who want a built-in reminder to take regular breaks.
Enable periodic on-screen reality check notifications that appear at intervals you choose (every 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours). Each notification shows you how long you have been playing and your net win or loss for the current session, so you always have a clear, up-to-date picture of your activity without needing to navigate to your account history.
Activate a temporary suspension of your account for a fixed period: 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a cool-off period, you cannot log in to your account or place any bets. Your existing account balance remains intact and can be withdrawn at the end of the cool-off period. A cool-off cannot be cancelled once activated — this is intentional, to ensure the break is meaningful.
To activate any of the above tools, log in to your 999a account, navigate to Account Settings, and select the Responsible Gaming section. Alternatively, contact our support team at and a team member will activate the tool on your behalf within one hour.
5. Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion is the strongest account restriction available on the 999a platform. It is designed for players who recognise that they need a significant, enforced break from gambling and who want to remove their ability to access the platform for an extended period. Self-exclusion is available to any player at any time, with no questions asked.
Players may choose from four self-exclusion periods: 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or permanent account closure. All periods are enforced without exception. There is no mechanism to reverse a self-exclusion before the chosen period expires.
When self-exclusion is activated, 999a immediately removes the affected account from all marketing and promotional communications including SMS alerts, email campaigns, and bonus notifications. This removal is permanent for the duration of the exclusion.
How to request self-exclusion at 999a:
Email [email protected] with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request" or open a live chat conversation and state that you wish to self-exclude.
Specify whether you want a 3-month, 6-month, 1-year, or permanent exclusion. Our team will confirm your choice before proceeding.
We verify your identity to ensure the exclusion is applied to the correct account. This protects against unauthorised exclusion requests by third parties.
Your account is suspended within 1 hour of your verified request. You will receive an email confirmation. Any remaining balance will be returned to your registered payment method.
6. Getting Help
If you believe that gambling has become a problem for you or someone close to you, please do not wait before seeking help. Problem gambling is a recognised condition with effective treatment pathways. The earlier a person reaches out, the better the outcomes tend to be. The following resources and support channels are available to players in Bangladesh and internationally.
Our support team is available 24/7 via live chat and email at [email protected]. We can activate any responsible gaming tool on your account, discuss your concerns in confidence, and guide you toward appropriate external resources. There is no judgement — only practical help.
Opening up to a trusted family member, friend, or colleague about a gambling problem can be a powerful first step. Social support is one of the most consistently effective factors in recovery from problem gambling. You do not have to face this alone.
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and other forms of professional counselling have strong evidence bases for treating problem gambling. In Bangladesh, mental health services are available through hospitals, private clinics, and a growing number of NGO-run counselling centres in Dhaka, Chittagong, and Sylhet.
Gamblers Anonymous operates globally and offers free peer-support groups for people affected by problem gambling. Their materials and online meetings are accessible to anyone regardless of location. Independent resources such as GamCare and BeGambleAware also provide free, confidential support and self-assessment tools online.
999a will never discourage a player from seeking help externally. We consider it a positive outcome when a player chooses to engage with professional support — and we will cooperate fully with any treatment provider or support organisation that a player authorises to act on their behalf in relation to their 999a account.
7. Protecting Minors
Protecting children and young people from exposure to online gambling is a responsibility that 999a takes extremely seriously. Beyond our own age-verification processes, we encourage all adult players to take steps to prevent underage access to gambling platforms on shared devices.
Set a strong, unique password for your 999a account that cannot be guessed by young household members. Never share your password or save it in a location accessible to children.
Always log out of your 999a account when you finish playing, especially on shared smartphones, tablets, or desktop computers. Do not rely on browser auto-fill to protect your login credentials.
Most smartphones and broadband routers available in Bangladesh support content filtering and parental control features. Use these to block access to gambling websites on devices that children use regularly.
If you suspect that a minor has accessed a gambling platform — including 999a — please contact our support team immediately at . We will investigate urgently, close any affected account, and refund any deposits made by the underage individual in accordance with our policy.
