Responsible Gaming — Play Smart, Stay in Control
At 88fp, we believe that entertainment should never come at the cost of your wellbeing. Gambling is meant to be fun — a recreational activity enjoyed within your personal limits. This page explains the tools, resources, and commitments 88fp has in place to ensure that every player in Bangladesh can engage with our platform safely and responsibly.
If gambling stops being fun, we have the tools to help you pause, limit, or stop at any time — immediately and free of charge.
Important: 88fp is strictly for players aged 21 years and above. Underage gambling is illegal and harmful. We verify the age of all players during account registration and KYC checks. If you are under 21, you must not use this platform.
How 88fp Promotes Responsible Gaming
Every feature on the 88fp platform is designed with player safety in mind. Here are the core pillars of our responsible gaming framework for Bangladesh players.
Age Verification (21+)
All players must be 21 years or older to register and play on 88fp. We conduct mandatory identity checks using Bangladesh National Identity Card (NID) data. No withdrawals are processed until age and identity have been fully verified through our KYC process.
Deposit Limits
Players can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits on their 88fp accounts at any time. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased until a mandatory cooling-off period has elapsed. Reducing a limit takes effect instantly.
Self-Exclusion
If you feel that gambling is affecting your life negatively, you can request a self-exclusion from 88fp at any time. Self-exclusion periods range from 30 days to permanent closure. During exclusion, your account is locked and all promotional communications are suspended.
Session Time-Out
Our platform includes session time-out tools that allow you to take a short break from gambling — from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. During a time-out, your account is suspended and you will not receive any bonus offers or marketing messages from 88fp.
Loss Limits
In addition to deposit controls, players can set a loss limit cap — a maximum amount you are willing to lose over a defined period. Once that threshold is reached, the platform automatically suspends betting activity for the remainder of the period, protecting your bankroll.
Reality Check Alerts
88fp can send you periodic in-session reminders showing how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered. These reality check alerts help you stay aware of your activity and make informed decisions about whether to continue or take a break.
Recognising Problem Gambling
Gambling becomes a problem when it stops being entertainment and starts affecting your finances, relationships, mental health, or daily responsibilities. The following warning signs may indicate that gambling has become harmful. If you recognise several of these in yourself or someone you know, we strongly encourage you to reach out to our support team immediately.
Problem gambling can affect anyone regardless of age, income, or background. The most important step is acknowledging the signs early. 88fp is here to help — not to judge. Our support team in Bangladesh Standard Time (BST, UTC+6) is available around the clock to assist with any responsible gaming concern, free of charge.

How to Activate Responsible Gaming Tools
Using our responsible gaming features on 88fp is straightforward. All tools are available from within your account settings or by contacting our support team directly. Here is how to activate each one.
Set a Deposit Limit
Log in to your 88fp account and navigate to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Deposit Limits. Select daily, weekly, or monthly, enter your preferred amount in BDT (e.g., ৳5,000 per week), and confirm. The limit activates immediately. To increase a limit, a 7-day cooling-off period applies.
Set a Loss Limit
Within Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Loss Limits, specify the maximum amount you are comfortable losing over a set period. Once this cap is reached, your betting activity is paused for the remainder of that period. Reduction requests are instant; increases require a 7-day review period.
Activate a Time-Out
Go to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Take a Break. Choose a duration: 24 hours, 72 hours, 1 week, 2 weeks, or up to 6 weeks. Your account will be immediately suspended for the selected period. You will not receive any promotional offers during this time. Time-outs cannot be ended early once activated.
Enable Reality Check Alerts
Navigate to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Reality Checks. Set your preferred alert interval (every 30, 60, or 90 minutes). During active play sessions, a notification will appear showing your total session time and net wagering activity, prompting you to review and decide whether to continue.
Request Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion is the strongest tool available. Contact our support team at [email protected] with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request" and specify your preferred duration: 30 days, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or permanent. Your account will be locked within 24 hours and all marketing will cease immediately. Funds on account will be returned via your registered bKash or Nagad number.
Account Closure
If you wish to permanently close your 88fp account, contact our support team with the subject line "Account Closure Request". We will process your request within 24 hours, return your remaining balance to your registered payment method (bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay), and securely retain your data only for the legally required retention period as described in our Privacy Policy.
Is Your Gambling Staying Healthy?
Use the checklist on the right to reflect on your gambling habits. If you answer "yes" to three or more of these questions, we recommend contacting our support team or using our self-exclusion tool immediately — no questions asked, no judgment passed.
Responsible gaming is not about avoiding fun — it is about keeping gambling in its rightful place as a form of entertainment that fits within your lifestyle and budget. The 88fp platform is designed to make it as easy as possible to set your own boundaries and stick to them.
If you are in Bangladesh and need immediate help with problem gambling, please contact a trusted mental health professional, community health centre, or reach out to our team at [email protected] at any hour of the day or night.

Response within 24 hoursProtecting Younger Household Members
If you share a device with younger family members in your Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, or any other Bangladesh household, we strongly recommend taking the following precautions to prevent underage access to the 88fp platform:
- Never save your 88fp login credentials in a shared browser or device.
- Enable device-level screen lock or parental control software on shared phones, tablets, and computers.
- Log out completely after every session on shared or public devices.
- If you suspect that a person under 21 has accessed or registered on 88fp, contact [email protected] immediately. We will investigate and close the account without delay.
- Have open conversations with young people in your household about the risks of gambling and the 21+ age requirement on platforms like 88fp.
Keeping Gambling Within Your Budget
One of the most effective responsible gaming practices is treating your gambling budget the same way you treat any other discretionary entertainment expense — like dining out, watching cricket matches at the stadium, or attending a concert. Here are some practical financial guidelines:
- Only gamble with money you can genuinely afford to lose — never with funds earmarked for rent, food, bKash bills, school fees, or emergency savings.
- Set a fixed entertainment budget for gambling each month and use our deposit limit tool to enforce it automatically on your 88fp account.
- Never borrow money — from family, friends, banks, or mobile financial services like bKash Credit — to fund gambling activity.
- Accept that losses are a normal part of gambling. The house always maintains an edge over time. Chasing losses rarely works and often leads to greater financial harm.
- Track your wins and losses honestly. If your losses consistently exceed your budget, it is a clear signal to use our responsible gaming tools or take a break.
