Responsible Gaming at l98
Gambling is entertainment — and it should stay that way. l98 provides a full suite of player-protection tools so you stay in control of your time, your spending, and your wellbeing at all times.
Our Commitment to You
Safe play is the foundation everything else is built on
At l98, responsible gaming is not a legal checkbox — it is a genuine, active commitment that shapes how we design our platform, train our support team, and develop our player-protection features. We believe that the best gaming experience is one where you feel in control: where limits are easy to set, where warning signs are flagged early, and where getting help is never more than a message away.
We serve a growing community of players across Bangladesh — from Dhaka and Chittagong to Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, and beyond — and we take seriously our responsibility to every one of them. Online gambling carries real financial risk, and we want our users to engage with the l98 platform with clear eyes, realistic expectations, and a firm grip on their own boundaries.
This page explains the tools available to help you manage your play, the warning signs that suggest gambling may be becoming a problem, and the steps you can take — both through l98 and external support channels — if you or someone you know needs help.
Player Protection Tools
Six tools built into l98 to keep you in control
Deposit Limits
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you deposit into your l98 account. Once a limit is active, it cannot be increased until a mandatory cooling-off period has passed. Lowering your limit takes effect immediately.
Session Time Limits
Define the maximum number of minutes you want to spend playing in a single session. When your session limit is reached, l98 will alert you and — if you choose — automatically end your session so you can take a break.
Time-Out (Short Break)
Need a breather? A time-out suspends your l98 account for a period of your choosing — from 24 hours up to several weeks. During a time-out, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. The break takes effect immediately upon request.
Self-Exclusion
If you feel that gambling is becoming a serious problem, you can request a full self-exclusion from l98. Self-exclusion locks your account for a minimum of six months or permanently, depending on your choice. During this period, marketing communications are also suspended.
Reality Check Alerts
Enable periodic on-screen reminders that show you exactly how long you have been playing in the current session and how much you have wagered. Reality checks are a simple but effective way to stay anchored to your intended limits.
Account Activity History
Access a complete, transparent record of all your deposits, withdrawals, bets, and session durations at any time from your l98 account dashboard. Reviewing your own history regularly is one of the most effective habits for maintaining healthy play patterns.
Warning Signs to Watch For
Recognising a problem early makes getting help much easier
Honest self-reflection matters. Problem gambling often develops gradually. The signs below are not a diagnosis — but if several of them feel familiar, it may be time to use one of the tools above or reach out to support.
- Spending more money on gambling than you originally planned or can comfortably afford to lose.
- Chasing losses — continuing to bet in an attempt to recover money you have already lost.
- Lying to family members or close friends about how much time or money you spend gambling.
- Feeling anxious, restless, or irritable when you are not able to gamble or when you try to cut down.
- Neglecting work, studies, household responsibilities, or important relationships because of time spent gambling.
- Borrowing money, selling possessions, or using savings meant for essential expenses in order to fund gambling.
- Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, depression, or other emotional difficulties rather than for entertainment.
- Repeatedly trying and failing to cut down or stop gambling despite a genuine desire to do so.
How to Activate Your Protections
Three simple steps to set up any player protection tool on l98
All protection tools are self-service. You do not need to wait for a support agent to apply deposit limits, session timers, or a time-out. Changes made via your account settings are applied in real time.
Log In to Your l98 Account
Sign in using your registered mobile number and password. If you have forgotten your credentials, use the account recovery option on the login page.
Navigate to Account Settings
From your account dashboard, open the "Responsible Gaming" or "Player Safety" section. All protection tools — deposit limits, session timers, time-out, and self-exclusion — are listed here in one place.
Select and Confirm Your Chosen Tool
Choose the tool you need, enter the parameters (e.g., daily deposit cap amount in ৳, session length in minutes), and confirm. Protective measures that restrict your play take effect immediately. Increases to limits require a mandatory 24-hour waiting period.
Protecting Minors and Vulnerable Players
Keeping the l98 platform safe for everyone
l98 is a strictly adults-only platform. Every new account must pass a mandatory age verification check before any deposits or bets are permitted. We apply a zero-tolerance policy toward underage gambling: accounts found to belong to users under the age of 21 are permanently closed and all associated funds are voided.
If you share a device with family members — including younger siblings, children, or teenagers — we strongly recommend setting up device-level parental controls in addition to your l98 account security. Keep your login credentials private and always log out of the l98 platform when you are finished playing.
If you suspect that a person under the age of 21 has created an account on l98, or that a vulnerable individual is using the platform in a harmful way, please contact our support team immediately at [email protected] (plain text — not a clickable link). We investigate all such reports promptly and take immediate action where necessary.
Our Responsible Gambling Policy
The principles that govern how l98 promotes safe play
Fair and Transparent Games
All games available on the l98 platform — including slots, live casino tables, cricket betting markets, fishing games, and crash games — are provided by certified software studios including Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, Spribe, Ezugi, NetEnt, and Microgaming. These providers operate under fair-play certification frameworks, meaning game outcomes are governed by independently verified random number generators (RNGs). l98 does not manipulate game results and has no mechanism to do so.
Transparent Odds and House Edge
l98 is committed to publishing clear information about return-to-player (RTP) percentages and odds for all game categories. Understanding the house edge before you play is essential to making informed decisions. No game on the l98 platform offers a guaranteed return; all gambling involves the risk of financial loss, and players should only ever wager amounts they are genuinely comfortable losing.
No Pressure Marketing
l98 does not send marketing communications to users who have activated a time-out or self-exclusion. We do not use aggressive pop-up notifications designed to bring inactive users back to the platform against their better judgment. Bonus offers are presented as optional opportunities, never as obligations, and all bonus terms are stated clearly before acceptance.
Support Team Training
Every member of the l98 customer support team receives training in responsible gambling awareness. Our agents are equipped to recognise the signs of problematic gambling in user interactions, to respond with empathy and without judgment, and to direct users toward the appropriate self-help tools or external support resources.
Responsible Advertising
l98 does not target its advertising at minors or at individuals who have previously self-excluded from the platform. All promotional content includes responsible gambling messaging, the 21+ age restriction notice, and a reminder that gambling involves financial risk.
Getting Help
You do not have to face this alone — support is available
If gambling is causing you distress, financial hardship, or is affecting your relationships, please reach out to the l98 support team immediately. We will help you activate the right protection tools and, where appropriate, direct you toward professional counselling resources.
Contact l98 Support
Email our dedicated player safety team at [email protected] (plain text — not a clickable link). Describe your situation honestly and our team will respond promptly, confidentially, and without judgment. All responsible gaming requests are treated as high priority.
Request Immediate Self-Exclusion
If you need your account closed right now, contact l98 support and specifically request a self-exclusion. Our team will process the request and confirm the closure within one business day. In urgent cases, a temporary account freeze can be applied within hours.
Talk to Someone You Trust
Sometimes the most important first step is telling a trusted friend or family member what you are going through. Problem gambling thrives in secrecy. Bringing it into the open — even just to one person — can make a meaningful difference to your recovery journey.
Remember: seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness. The l98 team is on your side, and getting support early makes recovery significantly easier and faster.
Play Smart. Play Safe.
