Core principles of responsible gaming

At 99an, the mental well-being and financial safety of every player are our top priorities.

Budget & Financial Limits

The foundation of responsible gaming is setting financial limits. At 99an, you can set your own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits yourself — so your spending never goes beyond your budget.

Time Control Features

It's easy to lose track of time without realizing hours have passed. 99an's session timer and reminder system keeps you aware of how long you've been playing and prompts you to take breaks.

Voluntary Break Options

You can put your account on a cooling-off period at any time. Choose a break anywhere from 24 hours to 6 months — no questions asked.

Self-Exclusion Feature

If you feel you need an extended break from gaming, activate self-exclusion. This will fully lock your account for a set period of time.

Set a Loss Limit

99an offers an automatic loss limit feature that stops gaming once you've lost a set amount. This protects you from placing impulsive bets in the heat of the moment.

Help & Support

If a member shows signs of addictive behavior, our trained support team reaches out directly and offers assistance. You are not alone.

1 What is responsible gaming?

Responsible gaming means enjoying gaming as a controlled form of entertainment — where fun is present, but your life isn't harmed. At 99an, responsible gaming means you decide how much you play, how much you spend, and when to stop.

Online gaming is a global entertainment industry. Millions of people in Bangladesh enjoy casino games, slots, and bingo every day. But that enjoyment stays healthy only when played responsibly. Responsible gaming rests on three pillars: awareness, setting limits, and the courage to stop when it's time.

At 99an, responsible gaming isn't just a policy — it's part of how we operate every day. Every member's gaming patterns are monitored, and automated alerts are sent out whenever unusual behavior is detected.

Remember: gaming is entertainment, not a guaranteed source of income. The first rule of responsible play is accepting that truth.

2 Signs of Healthy Gaming Habits

There are some simple signs that show you're gaming responsibly. If the following apply to you, you're on the right track:

  • Gaming is one form of entertainment for you — not the main focus of your life.
  • Never spend beyond the budget you set in advance.
  • Losses do not upset you, and you feel no urge to chase them.
  • Gaming does not interfere with time for family, friends, or work.
  • You can stop playing whenever you choose.
  • You never have to lie to anyone about your gaming.

These are the hallmarks of responsible gaming. 99an wants every member to maintain these healthy habits.

3 How to recognize gaming addiction

Gaming addiction develops gradually — not all at once. It can be hard to notice in yourself. However, certain warning signs should prompt you to take action:

  • Urge to chase losses: Chasing losses by placing bigger bets to try to break even.
  • Exceeding your budget: Repeatedly breaking limits you set for yourself.
  • Strain on relationships: Relationships with family or friends suffering because of gaming.
  • Resorting to dishonesty: Hiding the truth from loved ones about gaming or money spent.
  • Anxiety when not playing: Feeling irritable, angry, or anxious when unable to game.
  • Disruption to work or studies: Failing to meet daily responsibilities because of gaming.
  • Borrowing to fund gaming: Borrowing or taking on debt to fund gaming.

If you recognize two or more of the above signs in yourself, don't wait — reach out to 99an support. Asking for help isn't a sign of weakness; it takes courage.

4 Self-Assessment

Ask yourself the questions below. If most of your answers are "yes," you are gaming responsibly. If any answer is "no," pause and take a closer look at your habits:

1

Do I set a specific budget before I start gaming and stick to it?

2

Do I see gaming as entertainment — not as a source of income?

3

Can I accept a loss calmly without immediately trying to win it back?

4

Can I step away from gaming when family, work, or studies need my attention?

5

Do I avoid lying to or hiding things from others about my gaming?

6

Can I stay calm when I'm not gaming — without feeling restless or angry?

7

Have I never borrowed money or dipped into my savings to fund gaming?

Doing this self-assessment once a month makes it easy to stay aware of your own gaming habits.

5 99an Responsible Gaming Tools

99an goes beyond setting policies — we provide practical tools to help you game responsibly. All of the following can be activated directly from your account settings:

Deposit Limit

Set a maximum deposit limit — daily, weekly, or monthly. Limits take effect immediately once set.

Loss Limit

The game will stop automatically once you reach a set loss amount. No more losing more than you can afford in the heat of the moment.

Session Timer

Sends automatic alerts to let you know how long you've been playing. Taking a timely break becomes much easier.

Cooling-off period

Take a break from 24 hours up to 30 days. You will not be able to log in to your account during this period.

Self-Exclusion

For a longer break, you can fully lock your account for anywhere between 6 months and 5 years.

Gaming History Report

View a full report of your gaming activity — how long you played, how much you won, and how much you lost.

Contact 99an support to activate any of these tools. Limit decreases take effect immediately, but increasing a limit requires a 72-hour waiting period — this is intentional.

6 Advice for Family & Loved Ones

Gaming addiction affects not just the individual, but the entire family. If you feel someone in your family is gaming excessively, the following steps may help:

  • Understanding, Not Anger: Try to understand the issue. Anger and blame only make things worse.
  • Have an open conversation: Raise your concerns calmly. Offer support, not judgment.
  • Build Alternatives: Create opportunities for family events, outings, or other forms of entertainment.
  • Stay in control of your finances: Consider setting up a joint account or expense monitoring arrangement if necessary.
  • Seek Professional Help: If needed, speak with a counselor or mental health professional.

Reporting directly to 99an also triggers action. If you suspect someone you know is using your device to game without your knowledge, contact our support team immediately.

5 Simple Rules for Responsible Gaming

Follow these five simple rules and gaming will always stay enjoyable.

Budget First, Play Later

Before each session, decide on a spending limit and stick to it — whether you are winning or losing.

Play for fun

Gaming means entertainment. Think of every session the way you'd think of going to a movie or playing a sport — not as a way to earn money.

Take Regular Breaks

Take at least a 10-minute break every hour. Grab a tea, go for a walk, or step outside. A clear head leads to better decisions.

Let the Loss Go

Do not try to win back what you have lost. Chasing losses is the biggest trap — it almost always leads to losing even more.

Make Time for Family

Family and friends matter more than gaming. If gaming is getting in the way of your relationships, it's time to stop.

Do Not Hesitate to Ask for Help

Reach out to 99an support whenever you feel the need. Using limits and break features is what smart players do.
