Keep in mind: Online gaming is a form of entertainment, not a source of income. Responsible gaming means knowing your limits and staying within them. 167bd is always here for you.

What Is Responsible Gaming and Why It Matters


Responsible gaming means enjoying gaming in a way where you consciously set boundaries on your time, money, and mental energy. At 167bd, responsible gaming isn't just a rule — it's the foundation of our platform.

Online gaming is growing rapidly in popularity across Bangladesh. Many people enjoy casino games, betting, or slots as a form of entertainment — and that's perfectly fine. However, when gaming starts to feel out of control, it can have a negative impact on your personal, financial, and family life.

167bd believes that gaming can be a healthy and enjoyable experience when players stay aware of their limits and stick to them. That's why we make responsible gaming tools and information readily available.

Every registered user on 167bd can set deposit limits, loss limits, and session time limits directly from their account settings. These tools are free and available at any time.

Building healthy gaming habits


The first step toward responsible gaming is building healthy habits. Following a few simple practices will keep your gaming experience positive every time:

  • Play with an entertainment mindset: Think of gaming as entertainment, not a way to make money. Never play with money you can't afford to lose.
  • Set your time: Decide in advance how long you'll play each day or per session. Use a timer.
  • Take breaks: Take at least a 10–15 minute break every hour. Playing non-stop increases mental fatigue.
  • Stay in the right headspace: Never play when you're angry, frustrated, or under the influence of alcohol — it significantly increases the risk of poor decisions.
  • Don't chase your losses: Chasing losses by placing bigger bets is dangerous. Don't fall into that trap.
  • Make time for family: Don't let gaming affect your relationships with family, friends, or work.
Remember — there is no "strategy" or "system" that guarantees a win. Casino and betting games always rely on random outcomes. Avoid chasing the lure of a big win.

Set a budget and limits


The most effective way to game responsibly is to set a budget in advance. 167bd lets you set the following limits directly from your account:

  • Daily Deposit Limit: Set a maximum amount you'll deposit each day.
  • Weekly deposit limit: Set a weekly budget so you're not under pressure at the end of the month.
  • Monthly loss limit: Play will automatically stop once you have lost a set amount.
  • Session time limit: Set a maximum playtime limit per session.
  • Cooldown Period: Option to log back in after a set cooling-off period.

Limits take effect immediately once set. However, requests to increase a limit may take 24 to 72 hours to process — this is intentional, to prevent impulsive decisions made in the heat of the moment.

A simple rule for budgeting: never spend more than your monthly entertainment budget on gaming. Never play with borrowed money or by dipping into emergency savings.

Recognising the signs of a problem


Gaming addiction develops gradually — often without you realising it has begun. Ask yourself the questions below. If you answer 'yes' to three or more, it may be time to seek help:

1

Do you feel uneasy or restless when you're not gaming?

2

Do you keep coming back to try to recover your losses?

3

Has gaming caused conflict with your family or at work?

4

Do you hide how much time or money you spend on gaming?

5

Have you tried to stop gaming but couldn't?

6

Have you taken money from essential expenses or savings to fund gaming?

7

Do you turn to gaming to escape stress or emotional pain?

8

Do you regularly spend more time or money than you intended?

Answer these questions honestly — for yourself. There's no judgment here. Recognising a problem is the first step toward solving it. The 167bd support team is always ready to help.

Self-Exclusion system


If you feel you need a break from gaming, use 167bd's self-exclusion feature. It is completely confidential and takes effect immediately.

1
Log In to Your Account

Log in to your 167bd account and go to the Responsible Gaming settings.

2
Choose your exclusion period

24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, 3 months, or 6 months — choose whichever period suits you.

3
Confirm

Verify your identity to activate self-exclusion. It takes effect immediately.

4
While exclusion is active

During this period, you will not be able to log in to your account or place any deposits or bets.

5
Re-evaluate at the end of the period

Once your exclusion period ends, the 167bd support team will contact you before your account is reactivated.

Once self-exclusion is active, the exclusion period cannot be shortened or cancelled. This is intentional — it is designed to prevent decisions being reversed in a moment of impulse.

The role of family & loved ones


Problem gambling doesn't only affect the individual — it impacts the whole family. If you feel a loved one is struggling with a gambling problem, the following advice may help:

  • Talk without judgment: Raise your concerns calmly, without anger or blame. Encourage them to acknowledge the problem.
  • Help with financial control: Help with joint accounts or budget planning.
  • Arrange alternative entertainment: Get involved in other activities that help shift your focus away from gaming.
  • Seek professional help: Consult a mental health professional if needed.
  • Set Account Limits on 167bd: Help your loved one set limits on their account.
Advice for family members: Take care of your own mental health too. Those supporting someone struggling with gaming addiction often need emotional support themselves.

Where to find support


Don't face a gambling problem alone. Beyond the 167bd support team, mental health resources are also available. Remember — asking for help is a sign of strength.
