18 bd believes gaming is purely for entertainment. We are always here to support your mental and financial well-being. Explore this page to discover all the effective ways and tools for responsible gaming.
Responsible Gaming This means treating gaming as a form of entertainment and playing within your financial and personal limits. 18 bd- we believe every gamer deserves a fun and safe experience.
Gaming becomes a problem when it stops being entertainment — when losing ruins your mood, household money gets spent, or going without gaming feels impossible. 18 bd Committed to helping you prevent this situation.
Our responsible gaming programme is built to international standards. With four tools — betting limits, deposit limits, cooling-off periods, and self-exclusion — you are in full control of your gaming.
Keep in mind: 18 bd- winning is never guaranteed. Gaming is entertainment, not a source of income. Always play only with money you can afford to lose without it affecting your life.
Healthy gaming habits checklist
If all of the above criteria apply to you, you're gaming responsibly. If not, make use of the tools below.
6 special measures to help you build healthy gaming habits
Set daily, weekly, and monthly deposit limits. Once set, lowering a limit takes effect immediately, but increasing it requires a 24-hour waiting period.
Decide in advance how long you'll play each day. Once that time is up, 18 bd will automatically alert you or log you out.
Take a break. You can pause your gaming for anywhere between 24 hours and 6 weeks. Your account will be locked for the duration.
Permanently deactivate your account for a period of 6 months to 5 years. This action cannot be undone — it is the highest level of protection available.
At set intervals, a pop-up will remind you how long you've been playing. These reality check alerts help you stay aware of your time and budget.
If you have any concerns about your gaming, our trained support team is always ready to help — speak with us in complete confidence.
How to use self-control tools at 18 BD
Log in to your account and go to Settings → Responsible Gaming → Deposit Limit. Set a daily limit of up to BDT 5,000, weekly up to BDT 20,000, or monthly up to BDT 50,000.
Decreasing a limit takes effect immediately, but increasing one will only apply after 24 hours.
Set a daily play limit — for example, 1 hour or 2 hours. When the time is up, 18 bd will send you a warning and, if needed, automatically log you out.
Tracking your daily gaming sessions is a great habit that goes a long way toward responsible play.
Feeling like you need a break? Activate the cooling-off option from your settings. Take a break of anywhere between 24 hours and 6 weeks — you won't be able to log into your account during this period.
Depositing or betting during a cooling-off period is completely blocked.
If you feel you need a longer break from gaming, choose the self-exclusion option. Your account will be fully closed for a period of 6 months to 5 years and cannot be reopened before that period ends.
Once self-exclusion is active, no promotions or offers will be sent to you until the period has ended.
Watch out for these warning signs
Using money meant for rent, food, or your child's education to bet is extremely dangerous.
Placing larger bets to try to recover losses after a losing streak — this is the most dangerous warning sign.
Skipping sleep or meals for gaming is seriously harmful to your health.
Hiding from family how much time or money is being spent on gaming is a serious warning sign.
Feeling restless, irritable, or moody when unable to game is a sign of dependency.
Never borrow money from friends, family, or anyone else to fund your gaming.

Expert Advice from 18 BD
Set a fixed monthly budget for gaming — and stick to it. If you use it up, treat it as your entertainment spend for the month.
Decide your maximum daily play time in advance. Use a timer or 18 bd's built-in session limit feature to keep yourself on track.
After a loss, don't chase it by betting even more. That's the biggest mistake you can make — accept the loss and try again another day.
When you're angry, upset, excited, or under the influence of alcohol, your judgment is impaired. Avoid logging in when you're in that state.
Spend time with family, catch up with friends, and pursue your hobbies. Gaming is one part of life — not the whole of it.
All games at 18 bd run on RNG technology. No strategy or pattern can guarantee a win. Accept this fact.
Take at least a 15-minute break every hour. Get up, have some water, go for a short walk. It keeps your mind fresh and helps you avoid impulsive decisions.
Talk openly with your family about your gaming habits. They're there for you and can offer support when you need it.
Don't rely on willpower alone — use 18 bd's built-in limit tools. Technology helps reinforce the decisions you've already made.
Struggling to control your gaming is not a sign of weakness — it takes courage to ask for help. 18 bd's support team is here to assist you in complete confidence.
