Gambling Should Always Be Entertainment

88fc is Bangladesh's most trusted online betting and casino platform, and we take that responsibility seriously. We believe gambling is a form of entertainment — one that should remain enjoyable, affordable, and entirely voluntary. The moment it stops being any of those things, we want to help.

Our responsible gaming programme is designed to give players meaningful control over their experience. From customisable deposit limits to full self-exclusion, every tool is available free of charge and can be activated instantly from your 88fc account dashboard. No lengthy processes, no waiting periods — just real protection when you need it.

Whether you are a casual cricket betting fan in Dhaka or a regular slots player in Chittagong, 88fc is committed to ensuring you always play within your personal limits. Our support team is available around the clock, every day of the year, to assist any player who feels their gambling habits may be getting out of hand.

Strictly 21+ Only — No Exceptions

The 88fc platform is exclusively for adults aged 21 and above. We enforce strict age verification on every account. If you are under 21, you must not register or attempt to use the 88fc platform. If you are a parent or guardian, please use parental control software to prevent underage access to gambling websites. Any account found to belong to an underage player will be immediately suspended and all funds forfeited.

Remember: Gambling is not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Never bet more than you can comfortably afford to lose. Set your budget before you start, and stick to it — every session, every time.

Built-In Controls at Your Fingertips

Every 88fc player has access to a full suite of responsible gaming tools — completely free, available immediately, and designed to keep your play within healthy boundaries.

Deposit Control

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum amount you can deposit over a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. You can lower your limit instantly, but increases take 24 hours to take effect — giving you a cooling-off window.

Loss Control

Loss Limits

Define the maximum amount you are willing to lose across a chosen time period. When your loss limit is reached, your account is automatically locked for further betting until the limit period expires. This tool is especially useful for players who want a firm safety net on their betting budget.

Session Control

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum duration for each play session. Once your time limit is reached, 88fc will display a reminder notification and, if you choose, automatically log you out. Keeping your sessions short and structured is one of the most effective ways to stay in control of your gambling habits.

Wager Control

Wager Limits

Cap the total value of bets you can place in a given period, regardless of outcome. Wager limits are independent of your balance — even if you have sufficient funds, your betting activity will pause once the limit is hit. Available in daily, weekly, and monthly configurations.

Time Out

Time-Out Period

Take a short break from gambling by activating a time-out of 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out, your account remains open but all betting and gaming activity is suspended. Time-out periods cannot be shortened once activated — they run their full duration.

Self-Exclusion

Self-Exclusion

For players who feel they need a longer break, self-exclusion is available for periods of 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, or permanently. During self-exclusion, your account is fully suspended and you will be excluded from all marketing communications. To request self-exclusion, contact us at [email protected].

How to activate these tools: Log in to your 88fc account and navigate to the Responsible Gaming section of your Account Settings. All limits and controls are managed there. Alternatively, contact our 24/7 support team at [email protected] and we will apply any restriction on your behalf within minutes.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually and is not always easy to recognise. The following warning signs may indicate that gambling is becoming harmful. If any of these apply to you or someone you know, seek help immediately.

Spending more money on gambling than you originally intended or can afford to lose.

Borrowing money from friends, family, or financial institutions specifically to fund gambling.

Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when you are unable to gamble or when you try to stop.

Chasing losses — continuing to bet in an attempt to recover money you have already lost.

Neglecting work, studies, family responsibilities, or personal health due to time spent gambling.

Lying to family members, friends, or employers about the extent of your gambling activity.

Using gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety, depression, loneliness, or other emotional difficulties.

Repeatedly making unsuccessful attempts to reduce, control, or stop gambling altogether.

Risking or losing important relationships, employment, or educational opportunities because of gambling.

If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone close to you, please reach out for help immediately. Problem gambling is a recognised condition that responds well to support and treatment. You do not have to manage it alone. Contact our support team at [email protected] or speak to one of the professional organisations listed below.

Ask Yourself These Questions

This short self-assessment is not a clinical diagnosis, but it can help you reflect honestly on your relationship with gambling. If you answer "yes" to three or more of these questions, we strongly encourage you to contact our support team or a professional counselling service.

Honest self-reflection is the first step towards regaining control. 88fc is here to support you through every step — from setting limits on your account to connecting you with professional help in Bangladesh and beyond.

1
Do you gamble with money that was intended for essential expenses such as rent, food, bills, or your children's needs?
2
Have you ever needed to gamble with increasingly larger amounts of money in order to feel the same level of excitement?
3
Have you tried to stop gambling in the past but found yourself unable to stay away for more than a few days?
4
Do you feel guilt, shame, or anxiety after a gambling session — even when you have won?
5
Have your close friends or family members ever expressed concern about the amount of time or money you spend gambling?
6
Do you find yourself thinking about gambling frequently throughout the day — planning your next session or thinking about past losses?
7
Have you ever stolen, sold possessions, or taken out a loan specifically to fund your gambling?

Steps to Take If You Need Support

Recognising that gambling may be a problem is a courageous first step. Here is a practical path forward, starting with the tools available directly on your 88fc account and extending to professional support services available in Bangladesh.

1

Activate a Limit or Time-Out on Your Account

Log in to 88fc and navigate to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming. Set a deposit limit, loss limit, or activate a time-out period immediately. These tools are effective instantly and require no approval.

2

Contact the 88fc Support Team

Reach out to our 24/7 support team at [email protected]. Our trained responsible gaming advisors can help you choose the right tools, apply restrictions, or initiate self-exclusion on your behalf — confidentially and without judgment.

3

Request Self-Exclusion

If you need a more significant break, request a self-exclusion for 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, or permanently. During self-exclusion your account is fully suspended and you are removed from all marketing. Email [email protected] with the subject "Self-Exclusion Request — [your username]".

4

Speak to a Professional Counsellor

For deeper support, we encourage you to reach out to a qualified mental health professional or addiction counsellor. Several organisations provide confidential support for gambling-related issues in Bangladesh and internationally. See the support contacts section below.

Tips for Keeping Gambling Fun

For the vast majority of players, gambling remains an enjoyable pastime. Here are some practical habits that keep it that way — recommended by 88fc for every player, every session.

Set a budget before you play. Decide exactly how much you are willing to spend before you start any session. Treat it as entertainment spending — money you can comfortably afford to lose.

Set a time limit and honour it. Use 88fc's session time limit feature or simply set an alarm on your phone. When the time is up, stop — regardless of whether you are winning or losing.

Never chase losses. Accept that losses are a normal part of gambling. Trying to win back lost money by betting more is one of the most common pathways to problem gambling — stop the session and walk away.

Take regular breaks. Even during a winning streak, step away from the screen regularly. Fatigue and emotional highs both impair judgement and lead to poor betting decisions.

Never gamble under the influence. Alcohol, medication, or extreme emotional states significantly affect decision-making. Avoid gambling when you are stressed, depressed, or celebrating excessively.

Keep gambling in perspective. Gambling should be one of many leisure activities in your life — not the primary one. Maintain other hobbies, social connections, and interests alongside your time on 88fc.
