Our Position

Responsible Why Does Play Matter?

Millions of people play on dhak8 every day. Most treat gaming as entertainment — exactly as it should be. In some cases, though, a gaming habit can develop into an addiction that affects personal and family life.

At dhak8, we believe a responsible player is a happy player. That's why we've built tools directly into the platform to help you stay in control of your gaming activity. Using them isn't a sign of weakness — it's what smart players do.

Remember — gaming on dhak8 is entertainment. It should not be seen as a regular source of income. Only play with money you can afford to lose without affecting your day-to-day life.

Dhak8's responsible gaming tools are completely free and available to any player at any time.

Core Principles of Responsible Play

  • Treat gaming as entertainment, not a source of income
  • Only play with money you can afford to lose
  • Set your time and budget before every session
  • Don't chase losses
  • Talk openly with family and friends about your gaming
  • Take regular breaks and avoid long uninterrupted sessions
  • When in doubt, use dhak8's limit and cooling-off tools

Dhak8's Responsible Gaming Tools

Simple Ways to Stay in Control

1

Deposit Limit

Set a maximum daily, weekly, or monthly deposit amount. Once a limit is in place, you won't be able to deposit more within that period. Lowering your limit takes effect immediately, but increasing it requires a 24-hour waiting period.

Daily Limit ExampleBDT 500
Weekly LimitBDT 2,000
2

Session Reminders & Time Limits

Decide how long you want to spend on each gaming session. Once your set time is up, dhak8 will send you a reminder. It's a simple way to break the habit of losing track of time.

Recommended session: no more than 1–2 hours, followed by a 15-minute break.

3

Cooling-Off Period

Taking a break is the best way to clear your head. You can voluntarily step away from the platform for anywhere between 24 hours and 30 days. During this period, logging in or any account activity will not be possible.

4

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a longer break, activate self-exclusion. Options range from 3 months to permanent. Your account will be closed and you won't receive any promotional communications.

5

Loss Limit Setting

Automatically stops your gaming session once you've lost a set amount. This protects you from chasing losses and betting even more to try to recover.

6

Gaming History Review

View your deposit, withdrawal, and betting history all in one place. Understanding your own patterns makes it easier to make informed decisions. Check your monthly report and see for yourself.

Responsible Gaming Why It Matters to Us

Player wellbeing is the foundation of our long-term success

Put Family First

Gaming on dhak8 is never a substitute for quality time with your family. Enjoy gaming only after you've met your responsibilities to your family, friends, and work — and only if time and money allow.

Make informed decisions

Don't play when you're angry, frustrated, or stressed. A calm mind makes for better decisions. Never game after drinking alcohol or using substances.

Plan your budget in advance

Set a fixed monthly entertainment budget and never spend more than that on dhak8. Never gamble with borrowed money or your savings.

  • Feeling restless or irritable when you're not playing
  • Needing to bet more money than before to get the same thrill
  • Unable to cut down on gaming despite repeated attempts
  • Continuing to gamble despite financial difficulties

Responsible Gaming Build the Habit

Small Changes Make a Big Difference

Playing responsibly doesn't mean quitting gaming. It means playing smart. A few simple habits can keep gaming enjoyable all the time.

Set your time limit: Decide how long you'll play before you start. Set an alarm on your phone or a timer. When it goes off, stop — even if you're winning.

Set your budget first: Decide in advance how much you can afford to spend on entertainment this month. Say it's BDT 1,000. Put only that amount toward gaming — and stop when it's gone.

Celebrate wins, take losses in stride: Wins and losses are both part of gaming. A loss isn't a defeat — it's part of the experience. Instead of dwelling on it, come back the next day with a clear head.

Keep it varied: Life should have many sources of joy beyond dhak8. Spend time with friends, stay active, and learn new things. Gaming should never be your only outlet.

Get help if you need it: If you're struggling, don't face it alone — reach out to dhak8 support. We don't judge; we help. We can also connect you with a professional counselor.

To use dhak8's responsible gaming tools, go to Account Settings and select the "Responsible Gaming" option.

If you have a balance in your account before activating self-exclusion, you will have the opportunity to withdraw it. Our support team will contact you to settle your balance before the account is fully locked.

Talk to them with empathy, not judgment. Gaming addiction is a mental health issue, not a moral failing. Contact dhak8 support and we can connect you with professional organizations.

A cooling-off period is a short break — from 24 hours up to 30 days — during which your account is temporarily deactivated. Self-exclusion is a longer-term or permanent decision, starting from 3 months and going up to permanent, with no promotional communications during that time.
