Basb8's Responsible Gaming Tools

We provide a range of effective tools to keep your gaming experience safe and enjoyable.

Deposit Limit

You can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits in advance. Once a limit is reached, the system will automatically stop you from depositing further.

Time Limits & Reminders

Set a time limit for your sessions in advance. Once the time is up, basb8 will alert you to take a break — so gaming never interferes with the rest of your life.

Cooling-Off Break

If you feel like you need a break, you can temporarily lock your account for anywhere between 24 hours and 30 days. Your account will remain inaccessible during this time.

Self-Exclusion

You have the option to permanently exclude yourself from basb8 for a period of 6 months to 5 years. Once this decision is made, no account can be opened during that time under any circumstances.

View Gaming History

You can view your full betting and deposit history at any time. Understanding your own spending patterns makes it easier to stay in control — that's the foundation of our transparency policy.

Support & Guidance

If you feel gaming is becoming a problem, our 24/7 support team is ready to help. We can also assist you in connecting with professional counseling services if needed.


1 What is responsible gaming?

Responsible gaming means enjoying gaming with entertainment as the primary goal — not earning money or chasing losses. At basb8, we believe everyone knows what is best for themselves, but a few guidelines can sometimes make a real difference.

The core of responsible gaming is simple — you stay in control of the game, not the other way around. Keeping control of your budget, your time, and your emotions is what responsible gaming is all about.

Basb8 respects every member as a capable adult who can make their own decisions. At the same time, we are committed to ensuring that gaming never becomes a burden in anyone's life.

All responsible gaming tools at basb8 are completely free and available to use at any time.

2 Entertainment vs. Addiction — Know the Difference

Playing slots, Sports Betting, or Fish Game is, at its core, entertainment — much like watching a film or catching a cricket match. But when it starts interfering with your everyday life, that's when it's time to pay attention.

Signs of Healthy Gaming

  • Playing within a set budget where any losses do not affect your daily life.
  • Time stays in check — no disruption to family, work, or studies.
  • Being able to accept a loss calmly without getting upset.
  • Gaming is just one small part of life — not everything.
  • Never play with borrowed money or by dipping into your savings.

Warning Signs

  • The urge to keep betting in order to win back what you've lost.
  • Feeling restless or irritable when not gaming.
  • Lying to family about how much time or money you spend on gaming.
  • Repeated failed attempts to cut back or stop gaming.

3 Recognising Problem Signs

Problem gambling does not appear overnight — it develops gradually. Look at the three stages below to understand where you might stand:

Green Signal — All Good

You play within a set budget, manage your time, accept losses calmly, and gaming has no negative impact on your daily life.

Yellow Signal — Proceed with Caution

You're occasionally going over budget, chasing losses, or finding yourself thinking about gaming too often. Set limits now and take a break.

Red Flag — Get Help

Gaming is harming your relationships, finances, or mental health, and you are unable to stop. Self-exclude immediately and seek professional help.

4 Self-Assessment

Ask yourself the following questions honestly — this is just for you:

1. Did you spend more than your set limit last month?
Never Once Sometimes Often
2. After a loss, did you place more bets to try to recover your money?
Never Once Sometimes Often
3. Has gaming caused tension in your relationships with family or friends?
Never Once Sometimes Often
4. Have you tried to stop gaming but failed?
Never Once Sometimes Often
5. Have you gamed using borrowed money or funds set aside for emergencies?
Never Once Sometimes Often

If 2 or more of your answers are "Sometimes" or "Often", please speak with our support team or activate self-exclusion.

5 Limit-Setting Guide

The most effective way to game responsibly is to set your limits ahead of time. At basb8, you can configure the following limits:

Financial Limits

  • Daily Limit: Decide on a maximum amount in BDT you will deposit each day.
  • Weekly Limit: Set a cap on your total spending for the week.
  • Monthly Limit: Set a fixed budget at the start of each month — and stick to it.
  • Loss Limit: The session will automatically end once you have lost a specified amount.

Set a Time Limit

  • Set a daily limit on how many hours you spend gaming.
  • Avoid gaming right before bed.
  • Avoid gaming during work or study hours.

Once a limit is set, you can reduce it immediately, but increasing it requires a 24-hour waiting period — this helps prevent impulsive decisions.

6 Self-Exclusion Process

Self-exclusion is your choice to voluntarily step away from basb8 for a set period of time. It is the most powerful responsible gaming tool available to you.

Self-Exclusion Steps

  • Get in touch with our support team via live chat or email.
  • Your identity will be verified.
  • Choose your self-exclusion period: 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or 5 years.
  • The account will be deactivated immediately.
  • Reactivation before the period ends is not possible.

Do not attempt to create a new account while self-exclusion is active — this violates our terms and can cause further harm to yourself.

7 Advice for Family & Loved Ones

Family members are often the first to notice when someone is struggling with a gaming problem. If you believe a loved one may be affected:

  • Approach the conversation with empathy, not anger or blame.
  • Listen to how they feel — without judgment.
  • Encourage them to seek professional help.
  • The situation can be stressful for you too — seek support for yourself if you need it.
  • Instead of offering financial support, focus on guiding them toward a solution.
