Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
At bat99, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices and protecting our players in Bangladesh. While betting and casino games can be entertaining, we recognize that gambling carries risks and can become problematic for some individuals. Our mission is to provide a safe, secure, and transparent platform where players can enjoy betting on cricket, slots, live casino games, and more — while maintaining control over their gambling behavior.
Responsible gaming means understanding the risks of gambling, setting personal limits, recognizing warning signs of problem gambling, and seeking help when needed. bat99 offers a comprehensive suite of tools to help you gamble responsibly, including deposit limits, session time limits, reality checks, and self-exclusion options. We also provide access to professional support resources for players who feel they may be developing a gambling problem.
This page explains the responsible gaming tools available on bat99, how to recognize problem gambling, and where to get help if you or someone you know is struggling with gambling addiction. All bat99 services are strictly for players aged 21 and above. We verify the age of all users during registration and do not permit minors to access our platform under any circumstances.
21+ Age Restriction: bat99 is exclusively for adults aged 21 years and above. We conduct strict age verification during registration. Accounts found to belong to individuals under 21 will be immediately closed and balances forfeited. Underage gambling is illegal and harmful.
Responsible Gaming Tools
Take control of your gambling with bat99's self-management features
Deposit Limits
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits to control how much money you can add to your bat99 account. Once you reach your limit, you will not be able to deposit additional funds until the time period resets. Deposit limits help prevent overspending and keep your gambling within affordable boundaries.
- How to Set: Log in to your account, navigate to Settings → Responsible Gaming → Deposit Limits, and choose your preferred daily, weekly, or monthly limit in BDT (৳).
- Limit Increases: Requests to increase deposit limits take effect after a 24-hour cooling-off period to ensure the decision is made responsibly.
- Limit Decreases: Requests to decrease deposit limits take effect immediately, allowing you to regain control quickly if you feel you are gambling too much.
Session Time Limits
Session time limits automatically log you out after a specified period of continuous play. This tool helps prevent extended gambling sessions that can lead to fatigue, impaired judgment, and excessive losses. Set a time limit that works for your lifestyle and stick to it.
- How to Set: Go to Settings → Responsible Gaming → Session Time Limits and select a time limit (e.g., 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours).
- Automatic Logout: When your session time expires, you will be automatically logged out of bat99. You can log back in after taking a break.
- Healthy Breaks: Use session limits to ensure you take regular breaks from gambling, stay hydrated, and maintain perspective on your play.
Reality Checks
Reality checks are periodic pop-up reminders that display how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered during your current session. These reminders help you stay aware of time and money spent, making it easier to recognize when it is time to take a break or stop playing.
- How to Enable: Navigate to Settings → Responsible Gaming → Reality Checks and set the frequency of reminders (e.g., every 30 minutes, every hour).
- Session Summary: Each reality check displays your session duration, total bets placed, and current account balance.
- Informed Decisions: Use reality checks to make informed decisions about whether to continue playing or take a break.
Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion is the most powerful responsible gaming tool available on bat99. If you feel that gambling is becoming a problem, you can temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from all bat99 services. During self-exclusion, you will not be able to log in, deposit funds, place bets, or access any bat99 games or features.
- How to Request: Contact bat99 support at [email protected] with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request" and specify your desired exclusion period (6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, or permanent).
- Immediate Effect: Self-exclusion takes effect immediately upon request. Your account will be suspended and you will not be able to reverse the decision during the exclusion period.
- No Exceptions: bat99 will not process any requests to reactivate your account or lift self-exclusion before the exclusion period ends. This policy protects you from impulsive decisions during difficult moments.
- Permanent Self-Exclusion: If you choose permanent self-exclusion, your account will be closed forever and cannot be reopened under any circumstances.
Time-Out (Cool-Off Period)
If you need a short break from gambling but do not want to self-exclude long-term, you can activate a time-out period. During a time-out, your account will be temporarily suspended for 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Time-outs provide breathing room to reassess your gambling habits without the commitment of long-term self-exclusion.
- How to Activate: Go to Settings → Responsible Gaming → Time-Out and select your preferred time-out duration.
- Immediate Suspension: Your account will be suspended immediately and you will not be able to log in until the time-out period expires.
- Automatic Reactivation: Your account will automatically reactivate when the time-out period ends. You do not need to contact support.
Account Verification & Security
bat99 requires all users to verify their identity during registration. This process ensures that all players are 21 or older and prevents underage gambling, identity fraud, and money laundering. We also use account verification to enforce self-exclusion and deposit limits effectively.
- KYC Requirements: All players must provide a government-issued photo ID and proof of address to verify their account.
- One Account Per Person: Each individual is allowed only one bat99 account. Multiple accounts are prohibited and will be closed if detected.
- Protecting Vulnerable Players: Verified accounts ensure that self-excluded individuals cannot create new accounts to circumvent responsible gaming restrictions.
