Responsible Gaming
at bdt98
bdt98 believes that gambling should always be an enjoyable form of entertainment — never a source of financial stress or personal harm. Our responsible gaming framework gives every player in Bangladesh the tools, knowledge, and support to stay in control at all times.
Playing Smart Starts Here
At bdt98, responsible gaming is not just a policy — it is a core part of how the platform operates. We enforce strict age verification, offer comprehensive player self-management tools, and maintain a dedicated support team ready to assist any player who feels their gambling habits may be causing harm.
Strict Age Verification
bdt98 requires every new account holder to verify their identity and confirm they are aged 21 or above before depositing or playing any real-money game. National ID (NID) and passport verification ensure that minors cannot access the platform under any circumstances.
Flexible Deposit Limits
Players can set personal daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly through their bdt98 account settings. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately. Reducing a limit is instant; increasing a limit applies only after a mandatory 48-hour cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decisions.
Session Time Reminders
bdt98 provides automatic session duration reminders that alert players after preset intervals — 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours of continuous play. These notifications appear as non-intrusive on-screen messages, encouraging players to take breaks and maintain a healthy relationship with gaming.
Time-Out Periods
Any player can activate a voluntary time-out from their bdt98 account for a period of 24 hours, 72 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out, the account is fully suspended — no deposits, no gameplay, no bonus activations. The player's account data and balance are preserved and fully accessible when the time-out expires.
Self-Exclusion Programme
Players who feel they need a longer break can request self-exclusion for a minimum of 6 months, up to 5 years, or indefinitely. Once self-exclusion is activated, bdt98 closes the account, removes the player from all promotional communications, and prevents re-registration until the exclus ion period expires and the player has completed a return-to-play review.
Gameplay Activity Reports
Registered players can access a full breakdown of their gameplay history, deposit and withdrawal records, session durations, and net win/loss figures at any time via their account dashboard. Transparent activity reporting helps players make informed decisions about their gambling habits based on real data.
Recognising Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of age, income, or experience. Recognising the early warning signs is the most important step toward getting help. If any of the following apply to you or someone you know, we strongly encourage reaching out to the bdt98 support team or a qualified counselling service.
Continuing to gamble in an attempt to recover money that has already been lost, often with increasingly larger bets.
Spending significantly more time gambling than originally intended, and finding it difficult to stop once a session has begun.
Missing work obligations, family commitments, or social engagements in Dhaka, Chittagong, or elsewhere because of time spent gambling.
Using gambling as a way to escape personal problems, manage stress, relieve anxiety, or deal with feelings of depression or loneliness.
Taking loans, borrowing money from family or friends via bKash or Nagad, or using credit to fund gambling activity beyond your personal means.
Concealing the extent of gambling activity from family members or close friends, or feeling shame and guilt about the amount of time or money spent.
Needing to bet progressively larger amounts in BDT to achieve the same level of excitement or satisfaction from gambling.
Making repeated unsuccessful efforts to cut back on, control, or completely stop gambling, despite a genuine desire to do so.
Experiencing serious financial difficulties — such as inability to pay rent, utility bills, or household expenses — as a direct result of gambling losses.
Your Self-Management Toolkit
bdt98 puts control directly in your hands. Every registered player has access to the following responsible gaming tools from within their account settings. These tools are free, voluntary, and take effect without requiring any action from customer support.
Deposit Limits
Set a cap on how much you can deposit into your bdt98 account over a given time period. Available limit periods:
- Daily Deposit Limit — resets every 24 hours at midnight Bangladesh Standard Time (BST, UTC+6).
- Weekly Deposit Limit — resets every Monday at 00:00 BST.
- Monthly Deposit Limit — resets on the 1st of each calendar month.
Minimum configurable limit: ৳500. Lowering a limit applies immediately. Raising a limit requires a 48-hour waiting period.
Loss Limits
Set a maximum net loss amount per day, week, or month. Once this threshold is reached, bdt98 will automatically suspend deposit and gameplay access for the remainder of the period. This tool is particularly effective for players who find deposit limits alone insufficient to manage their gaming behaviour.
- Daily, weekly, and monthly loss limit options.
- Applies across all game types: casino, sports betting, live dealer, and slots.
- Reduction is instant; increase requires 48-hour cooling-off period.
Session Limits
Cap the maximum continuous duration of each gaming session. When the session limit expires, bdt98 will automatically log you out and require a manual re-login to resume play. Available session durations:
- 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, or a custom duration.
- A 5-minute warning notification appears before the session ends.
- Re-login is permitted but requires acknowledgement of the session duration elapsed.
Time-Out (Short Break)
Activate a temporary account suspension for a defined cooling-off period. Time-out options:
- 24 hours, 72 hours, 7 days, or 30 days.
- Account is fully suspended: no logins, no deposits, no gameplay.
- Balance and account data are preserved.
- Promotional emails and SMS are paused for the duration.
- The time-out cannot be cancelled early once activated.
Self-Exclusion (Long-Term)
Request a full account closure for an extended period. Self-exclusion options at bdt98:
- 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, or permanent exclusion.
- Account is closed; re-registration is blocked during the exclusion period.
- All marketing communications are permanently stopped.
- Available BDT balance is returned to the player's verified payment method within 3–5 business days.
- To apply, contact [email protected] with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request".
Marketing Opt-Out
Remove yourself from all promotional communications at any time. This includes bonus offer emails, SMS promotions, seasonal campaign notifications (such as BPL, Eid, or Pohela Boishakh promotions), and re-engagement messages. Opting out of marketing does not affect your ability to use the platform or access your account. To opt out, update your notification preferences in your account settings or contact [email protected].
Protecting Minors in Bangladesh
The bdt98 platform is strictly for adults aged 21 and above. We take our responsibility to prevent underage gambling seriously and implement multiple layers of protection to enforce this requirement.
Every new player registering at bdt98 must confirm that they are aged 21 or above during the account creation process. Age verification is further enforced at the KYC (Know Your Customer) stage, where a government-issued identity document — such as a Bangladesh National Identity Card (NID) or passport — must be submitted and verified before any withdrawal can be processed.
If bdt98 has any reason to suspect that an account is being operated by a person under the age of 21, the account will be suspended immediately pending an urgent identity verification review. Any funds deposited by a player subsequently found to be under 21 will be handled in accordance with our Terms & Conditions and applicable legal obligations.
bdt98 strongly encourages parents and guardians across Bangladesh — in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, and beyond — to make use of family-safety filtering software and parental controls on shared devices. If you believe a minor has accessed or registered on the bdt98 platform, please contact our support team immediately at [email protected].
NID Verification
Bangladesh National ID card verification is required for all players before withdrawals are permitted.
Instant Suspension
Any account suspected of being operated by a minor is suspended immediately, with no access to funds until verification is complete.
Verified Email Required
Email address verification is mandatory at registration. This adds an additional layer of account security and identity confirmation.
Mobile Verification
A valid Bangladeshi mobile number, verified via OTP, is required to complete account registration and activate payment methods such as bKash and Nagad.
