Responsible Gaming —
97bd's Commitment

Responsible Gaming means enjoying gaming as a healthy form of entertainment — where you maintain full control over your time, money, and emotions. 97bd believes that real gaming enjoyment comes only when it is stress-free and mindful.

Online gaming culture in Bangladesh is growing fast, and with that growth comes the need for greater awareness. Many people start out playing for fun but gradually develop an unhealthy dependence — and it's precisely to prevent this that 97bd has made responsible gaming a core principle.

Responsible gaming rests on three core principles. First, gaming should never be a source of income — it is entertainment. Second, set a budget and time limit before each session and stick to them. Third, whenever gaming starts to have a negative impact on your life, seek help immediately.

Problem gaming often develops gradually. If you notice the following signs, it's time to take them seriously and seek help if needed:

97bd has developed several powerful tools to help players maintain responsible gaming habits. These tools keep full control of your account in your hands.

Spending money on gaming is part of the entertainment, but it must stay within bounds. 97bd recommends only using funds that, if lost, would not affect your day-to-day life.

• Set a monthly entertainment budget: Set aside a small, fixed portion of your monthly income for gaming. Most experts recommend keeping it to no more than 2%-5% of your monthly earnings.
• Don't chase your losses: This is one of the biggest mistakes you can make. Once you hit your loss limit for a session, stop for the day.
• Avoid credit cards or borrowing: Only play with money you can afford to lose. Never place bets with borrowed money.
• Keep your winnings separate: If you hit a big win, withdraw a portion of the winnings — don't put it all back on the line.
• Track your activity: Keep track of how much you deposit and how much you win or lose each month. It helps you stay aware.

Self-exclusion is a powerful decision you can make for yourself. 97bd has kept the process simple and respectful. If you feel you need a short break or a longer time away from gaming, go ahead and activate self-exclusion.

Only individuals aged 18 or above may register at 97bd. Age verification is mandatory at registration, and additional verification may be required at any time.

• Opening an account for anyone under 18 is strictly prohibited and a legal requirement.
