18+ Only Benefits of Setting Limits Take a Break Anytime 24/7 Support

Why is responsible gaming important?

Online gaming is a great source of entertainment. However, uncontrolled gaming can have a negative impact on your personal, family, and financial life. hot88 believes that every player's wellbeing matters more than the platform's success.

We offer a range of responsible gaming tools so you always stay in control — from setting deposit limits to taking a short break or permanently self-excluding. It's all straightforward to set up.

Remember: gaming is not a way to recover lost money. It's entertainment, not an investment. Responsible gaming at hot88 isn't just a policy — it's a commitment we live by every day.

Keep in mind: If you feel gaming is affecting your life, seek help now. Taking action early is always the right call.

Core Principles of Responsible Gaming

Play for Entertainment

See gaming as a form of entertainment, not a source of income.

Set Your Budget Upfront

Decide how much you're willing to spend per session before you start.

Stick to Your Time Limits

Avoid long, uninterrupted sessions. Take regular breaks.

Don't Play Under Pressure

Avoid gaming when you're feeling stressed or low.

Seek Help When You Need It

If you or someone you know is struggling, reach out to hot88 support.

Responsible Gaming Tools

Tools hot88 provides to keep you in control at all times

Deposit Limit

Set your own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap. Once a limit is in place, it can't be raised easily — keeping you protected from overspending.

Session Time Limit

Set a limit on how long you can play in a single session. Once the time is up, hot88 will automatically notify you and, if needed, end the session.

Cooling-Off Period

You can temporarily close your account for 24 hours, 1 week, or 1 month. No bets or deposits can be placed during this period — it's an effective way to take a step back and reduce stress.

Self-Exclusion

Permanently close your account for anywhere between 6 months and 5 years. Once self-exclusion is active, your account cannot be reactivated under any circumstances — this is the strongest safeguard for serious concerns.

Promotional Opt-Out

You can opt out of all bonus offers and promotional emails at any time. This reduces temptation and helps you stay focused on your own budget.

Bet Limit

Set a maximum amount for a single bet. Once this limit is active, you won't be able to place any single wager above that amount — protecting you from excessive risk.

How do I set limits?

Step 1 — Log In to Your Account

Step 2 — Go to Settings

From the "Account Settings" section, select the "Responsible Gaming" option.

Step 3 — Set Your Limits

Choose your preferred limit type — deposit, session time, bet amount, or break — and enter the value.

Step 4 — Confirm

Limits take effect immediately once saved. Decreasing a limit applies instantly; increasing one takes 24 hours.

If you run into any issues setting limits, contact our support team directly. We'll guide you through it step by step.

Self-Check: Do I Need Help?

Ask yourself the following questions

Do I overspend my budget and regret it later?

Do I chase losses by placing more bets to win back what I've lost?

Have family or friends expressed concern about your gaming?

Have I repeatedly tried to stop gaming but failed?

Do you feel restless or irritable when you're not gaming?

Do I prioritize gaming over work or studies?

Do I turn to gaming to escape stress or cope with difficult emotions?

If you answered "Yes" to 2 or more questions, it may be time to seek help. support@hot88.worldContact us at.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Responsible Gaming

Yes, deposit limits can be increased — but the change doesn't take effect immediately. For security reasons, a request to raise your limit requires a waiting period of 24 to 72 hours. Decreasing a limit, however, takes effect right away.

Yes. Any balance remaining in your account when you request self-exclusion will be returned to your registered payment method once verification is complete. Bonus funds are non-refundable.

No. Your account does not reactivate automatically once the cooling-off period ends. You'll need to actively request reactivation — ensuring you only return when you're truly ready.

Typically, these tools are activated by the account holder. However, if a close family member has concerns, they can contact our support team and we'll assess the situation and take appropriate action.

For mental health support in Bangladesh, you can reach out to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), the psychiatry department at any major hospital in Dhaka, or a mental health helpline. hot88's support team can also point you toward the right resources.

Yes, having multiple limits active at the same time is entirely possible. For example, a deposit limit, session time limit, and bet limit can all run simultaneously. We actually recommend this approach — layered protections work best.
