Log in to your account and go to "Settings."
2
Select the "Responsible Betting" option.
3
Tap whichever you prefer — daily, weekly, or monthly.

2
Set the maximum number of minutes you want to play per session.

Set the duration of your account pause for the Cooling-Off period.

The session timer stays visible in the corner of your screen at all times, so you can always see how long you've been playing.

Know When to Stop — Recognize These Warning Signs

There are warning signs that appear before betting becomes a problem. sportgamblers wants its members to be able to recognise them.

A Healthy Betting Budget Framework
Entertainment budget (of total income)5%
Maximum Single Bet10% of budget
Weekly Session CountUp to 3

This is a reference guide only — every individual's situation is different.

Chasing Losses
A strong urge to bet again just to recover a loss is the first warning sign of a problem. In responsible gambling, accepting a loss is perfectly normal.
Exceeding Your Budget
Continuing to bet after your set budget is exhausted, or betting with borrowed money, is a serious warning sign. In this situation, please speak to sportgamblers' support team.
Withdrawing from Family or Work
When betting starts to feel more important than spending time with family or fulfilling work commitments, it's time to reassess your limits.
Restlessness without betting
Feeling irritable or restless after just one day without betting can be a sign of dependency. This isn't normal, and seeking help is not a weakness.
Keeping Secrets from Loved Ones
Hiding your betting from family or friends is a sign that, deep down, you know something isn't right. Trust that feeling.
Sleep Problems or Mental Stress
Losing sleep or feeling stressed over betting are signals from your body and mind that you need a break. sportgamblers is always here to help.

Why Is Responsible Gambling So Important?

Online betting is growing rapidly in Bangladesh. From the Cricket World Cup to the Bangladesh Premier League, millions of fans place bets every match to back their favourite teams. It's a perfectly normal and enjoyable activity — as long as it stays under control.

The core message of sportgamblers' responsible gambling program is simple — betting is for fun, not a substitute for income. The idea that you can earn a steady daily living from betting doesn't hold up in reality. In an unpredictable sport like cricket, there's no such thing as a "guaranteed winning strategy."

Budget Management — The Most Effective Habit

The most fundamental step in responsible betting is setting a budget and sticking to it. Each month, allocate a portion of your entertainment spending to betting. It should be an amount you can afford to lose without it affecting your life.

Keep one simple rule in mind: your monthly betting budget should be no more than 5% of your total income. Going beyond that can affect your household expenses. Use sportgamblers' deposit limit tool to enforce this budget automatically.

Keep in mind: Betting should never be treated as a source of income. If you ever find yourself thinking "one more win and I can pay off my debts" — that's the most dangerous mindset there is. If you're in that situation, take a break immediately.

Mindful time management

It's easy to lose track of how much time you've spent betting without even realising it. Just like you can track screen time on your smartphone, sportgamblers' Session Time Limit feature helps you keep your betting time in check. Spending more than 1–2 hours a day betting is generally not considered healthy.

Talk to someone close to you

If someone close to you raises concerns about your betting, try not to be defensive — take a moment to reflect. The people who know us best often notice changes in us before we do. Talking openly with them is the first step toward addressing the problem.

Sportgamblers' responsible gaming program is more than a policy — it's a commitment. Every tool, every warning, and every support conversation is part of that commitment. Betting should be enjoyable, and sportgamblers wants to keep it that way for the long run.

The sportgamblers commitment: We will never take any action that encourages a member to bet beyond their means. Our goal is a long-term relationship built on trust, not short-term profit.

Responsible Betting FAQ

Answers to questions our members ask most often

When you log in to sportgamblers, you'll see daily check-in and free spin offers on the home screen or under the "Promotions" tab. Logging in once a day automatically credits your check-in bonus — no button required. Free spins are generally valid for specific slots games and can be used by clicking the "Claim Free Spins" button. If unused, they will expire and be removed automatically. For more details, visit the Popular Games Visit the page or ask our support team.

Log in to sportgamblers, click the profile icon in the top right corner, then go to "Settings" > "Responsible Betting". From there, you can manage your Deposit Limit, Session Time Limit, Cooling-Off, and Self-Exclusion all in one place. Lowering your deposit limit takes effect immediately, but increasing it requires a 24-hour waiting period — this is intentional, to prevent impulsive decisions in the heat of the moment. Once Self-Exclusion is activated, it cannot be reversed before the set period ends — again, by design, since this tool is meant for serious situations. The same process applies on the mobile app.
