Responsible Gaming

98bet Responsible Gaming – A Guide to Safe & Healthy Gaming Habits

Gaming should be fun — not stressful. Play responsibly at 98bet, know your limits, and reach out for help when you need it. We are always here for you.

What is responsible gaming?

Responsible gaming means participating with a clear awareness of your budget, time, and mental state. At 98bet, we believe gaming should be an enjoyable experience for everyone — free from pressure or harm.

Online gaming is a great way for many people to unwind and have fun. But when gaming starts disrupting daily life, affecting family or work, or causing financial stress — it becomes a serious concern.

That's exactly why 98bet's responsible gaming policy exists. We want every player to game mindfully, understand their limits, and seek help promptly if problems arise.

Our commitment: At 98bet, player wellbeing always comes before profit. Responsible gaming is at the core of everything we do.
Principles of responsible gaming
01
Play for fun

Gaming is entertainment, not a source of income. Think of winnings as a bonus, not the main goal.

02
Set a budget

Before you start playing, decide how much you are comfortable spending and stick to that limit.

03
Set a time limit

Decide in advance how long you will play each day. Keep gaming time separate from family and work commitments.

04
Accept losses gracefully

Chasing losses by playing more is never the right move. Take a break instead.

05
Stay calm and in control

Avoid gaming when you are in an emotional state — whether angry, frustrated, or under the influence of alcohol.

  • Playing within a pre-set budget
  • You can stop calmly when you lose
  • There is more to life than gaming
  • Putting family and work first
  • Being open about your gaming

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about responsible gaming

Yes, reducing your deposit limit takes effect immediately. However, increasing a limit takes 24–48 hours to apply. This delay is intentional — to prevent impulsive decisions.

Self-exclusion cannot be reversed before the set period ends. Once the period is over, if you feel ready to return to gaming, you can contact support.

A cooling-off period is a temporary break lasting from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. It is less restrictive than self-exclusion and ends automatically after the set time. Self-exclusion is a longer-term or permanent decision — ranging from 6 months to permanent.

Change your password and enable two-factor authentication on your account. If an underage family member has accessed your account, contact support immediately.

Gaming addiction is a recognized mental health condition. Consulting a counselor or psychiatrist is the most effective course of action. The 98bet support team can also point you in the right direction.
