Set Deposit Limits

You can set your own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Limits take effect immediately once set, and any increase requires a 24-hour waiting period.

Signs of Problem Gaming

If you notice the following signs, seek help promptly. Taking action at the right time is always the wisest move.

Betting Beyond Your Means

Spending heavily on gaming at the expense of essential household costs, or borrowing money to place bets, are clear warning signs.

Inability to Accept Losses

Repeatedly gaming to chase losses and losing even more in the process — this is a dangerous cycle.

Withdrawal from Family & Friends

Being so absorbed in gaming that family, friends, or professional responsibilities are being neglected.

Disrupted Sleep and Daily Routine

Staying up late to game, neglecting meals and sleep, and losing focus on work or studies.

Lying About Gaming

Hiding or misrepresenting to family or friends how much time or money you are spending on gaming.

Restlessness When Not Playing

Feeling angry, anxious, or depressed when you cannot play is a sign of psychological dependence.

Keep in Mind: If any of the above signs apply to you, it is not a weakness — it is a signal that you need help. The W99 support team is here for you.

What Responsible Gaming Means

Responsible gaming means enjoying online gaming in an informed, planned manner and within your own means. Under W99's responsible gaming policy, playing should be purely for entertainment — never a source of financial or emotional stress.

Simply put, responsible gaming means you control the game — not the other way around. W99 believes every player has the right to know when to stop, how much to spend, and when to seek help.

Online betting and casino games involve financial risk. Every player should keep this in mind before they start. W99's responsible gaming policy applies equally to all game types on our platform, including slots, Live Casino, betting, and bingo.

Core Principle: Gaming is a leisure expense — not an investment. Chasing losses in hopes of winning back money is never the right approach.

Why Responsible Gaming Matters

Millions of people across Bangladesh now enjoy online gaming. The widespread availability of smartphones has made it possible to play anytime, anywhere — which is convenient, but also raises the risk of addiction.

Research shows that uncontrolled gaming can cause financial harm to families, damage relationships, and lead to mental health issues. W99's responsible gaming program helps reduce these risks.

Only players aged 18 and above are permitted on our platform. Every user's identity is verified, and W99 is always ready to assist anyone who needs support.

  • Gaming is entertainment, not a source of income.
  • Never spend beyond your set budget.
  • Avoid placing large bets on impulse.
  • Never game under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
  • Take regular breaks and spend quality time with your family.
  • When you lose, stay calm and assess the situation with a clear head rather than reacting with frustration.

Practical Tips for Safe Gaming

Responsible gaming does not mean you have to stop playing. Following a few simple guidelines is all it takes to keep gaming safe and enjoyable.

Set Your Budget in Advance: At the start of each month, decide how much BDT you will spend on gaming. Keep this budget separate from your household expenses and never exceed it.
Set Time Limits: Decide how long you will play each day before you start. Use W99's session timer to make sure you don't go over your limit.
Set a Win Limit: Once you hit a set winning amount, stop playing for the day. Chasing more often means losing it all.
Don't Use Gaming as an Escape: Using gaming to cope with stress, loneliness, or sadness can make things worse. Gaming is for fun, not for solving problems.
Let Your Family Know: Don't hide your gaming habits from your family. Open conversations build family support and make it much easier to avoid excessive gaming.

Protection of Minors

Underage gaming is strictly prohibited on W99. No one under the age of 18 may register or play on our platform. We enforce this through a mandatory identity verification process.

If you have children or teenagers at home, take the following steps:

  • Use a strong password for your W99 account and never share it with anyone.
  • Do not save gaming app or browser passwords on your mobile or computer.
  • Have open conversations with your children about the risks of online gaming.
  • Install parental control software on your devices.
  • If you notice any unusual activity on your account, contact W99 Support immediately.

If you suspect that a minor has been using your account, please W99 Support Contact us. We will act quickly to secure your account.

Where to Get Help

Gaming addiction is a real issue, and seeking professional help is a completely normal and courageous decision. If you or someone in your family is struggling, don't wait — get help now.

  • W99 Support: Our responsible gaming team is available 24/7. Reach out directly with any concerns or issues.
  • Mental Health Professional: Speak with a local psychologist or counsellor.
  • Family & Trusted Friends: Talk openly with the people close to you.
  • National Mental Health Helpline: Kaan Pete Roi and government mental health services are available in Bangladesh.
Asking for help is not a sign of weakness — it takes real courage. W99 always puts your wellbeing and happiness above gaming.
