Sports and betting should be enjoyable — not a burden. At 98db, we believe every player's wellbeing is our responsibility, which is why we offer comprehensive tools and support for responsible gaming.
Responsible Gaming means betting or gaming while knowing your limits, staying in control, and never letting entertainment turn into financial stress. Every service at 98db is built on this principle.
Online betting is growing in popularity across Bangladesh, and so is the need for responsible gaming. It can be hard to notice when entertainment starts becoming a problem. We want you to stay informed and safe at all times.

Set a maximum daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Once set, it takes effect immediately — but increasing the limit requires 72 hours' notice. That delay is there to protect you.
Decide how long you want to play before you start. When the time is up, 98db will automatically remind you to take a break. Stay aware, stay within your limits.
If you need a short break, activate a cooling-off period lasting anywhere from 24 hours to 6 weeks. Your account will be locked during this time and no betting will be possible.
If you feel betting is getting out of control, close your account for 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. Making that call isn't a weakness — it takes real courage.
You'll receive regular notifications while you play — showing how long you've been playing and how much you've won or lost. It's a highly effective way to stay grounded in reality.
