Responsible Gaming at ck48 – Your Safety Comes First
ck48 is committed to providing a safe, fair and enjoyable gaming environment for all players across Bangladesh. Our responsible gaming tools put you in control of how you play.
Our Commitment
Playing Responsibly with ck48
Gambling at ck48 is designed to be an enjoyable form of entertainment — not a source of income, not a way to solve financial problems, and never something that should feel out of control. The vast majority of players who use ck48 for cricket betting, slots, live casino and crash games do so recreationally and within their means. But ck48 recognises that for a small number of people, gambling can become problematic, and we take that seriously. This page explains the tools available to every player on ck48 and how to use them if you ever feel your gambling habits are changing.
ck48 is for adults aged 21 and above only. If you are unsure whether gambling is legal for you in your specific area, please check with local authorities before registering. ck48 supports responsible gaming as a core value — not as an afterthought. Every player deserves to feel safe and in control at every stage of their experience on the platform.
Player Tools
Responsible Gaming Tools Available on ck48
Every registered ck48 account has direct access to a full suite of responsible gaming tools from the account settings menu. These tools are free to use, take effect immediately when activated, and are designed to put you back in control the moment you need it.
Set daily, weekly or monthly deposit caps to control how much you fund your account. Limits take effect instantly; increases require a 7-day cooling period.
Set a maximum session length per day. When your time is up, ck48 will notify you and end your active gaming session automatically.
Take a short break from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. During a cooling-off period your account remains open but deposits and gameplay are suspended.
Permanently exclude yourself from the platform for a minimum of 6 months. Once activated, self-exclusion cannot be reversed during the exclusion period.
Enable periodic pop-up reminders showing how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered in the current session.
Review your full betting history, win/loss summary and transaction records at any time from your account dashboard to stay informed about your activity.
Deposit Controls
Managing Your Deposit Limits at ck48
Deposit limits are the most widely used responsible gaming tool on the ck48 platform, and for good reason — they work. Setting a clear daily or weekly deposit cap means you always know your maximum exposure before you start playing. It removes the temptation to top up after a run of losses and keeps your gambling budget predictable and manageable.
To set or adjust a deposit limit on ck48, log in to your account, navigate to the Responsible Gaming section of your account settings, and select your preferred limit type (daily, weekly or monthly) and the maximum amount in BDT. A reduction in your deposit limit takes effect immediately. An increase will not take effect for 7 days — this cooling period is built in to protect you from making impulsive decisions during a losing run or emotional moment.
ck48 strongly recommends that all players in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet and across Bangladesh set a deposit limit from their very first day on the platform. Treating gambling as a fixed-budget entertainment activity — the same way you would budget for a cinema trip or a restaurant meal — is one of the most effective strategies for keeping it enjoyable long-term. Never gamble with money you need for household expenses, rent, bills or family obligations.
Self-Exclusion
How Self-Exclusion Works on ck48
Self-exclusion is the most powerful tool ck48 offers for players who feel they need a complete break from gambling. It is not a sign of weakness — it is a proactive, responsible decision that takes courage. ck48 fully supports every player who chooses to self-exclude and will make every reasonable effort to enforce the exclusion effectively.
Log in to your ck48 account and go to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Self-Exclusion. Choose your exclusion period (minimum 6 months). Confirm your decision. Your account will be restricted immediately — you will not be able to deposit, play or access promotional offers. ck48 will also suppress all marketing communications to your mobile number for the duration of the exclusion. If you are unable to log in or prefer to speak to someone directly, contact ck48 support via live chat and the team will activate self-exclusion on your behalf within minutes.
Once a permanent self-exclusion has been activated, it cannot be lifted or reversed for a minimum of 6 months. After the minimum period has elapsed, you may request reinstatement by contacting ck48 support. Reinstatement is not automatic — it requires a deliberate request and a reflection period. If you attempt to open a new ck48 account while under a self-exclusion, that account will be closed and any deposits returned. ck48 takes self-exclusion seriously and will not use loopholes or technicalities to allow excluded players to continue playing.
Know the Signs
Warning Signs That Gambling May Be Becoming a Problem
Gambling problems rarely appear overnight. They usually develop gradually, and the early signs can be easy to dismiss or overlook. The following warning signs do not mean you definitely have a gambling problem — but if several apply to you, it may be worth pausing and honestly reflecting on your habits, or speaking to someone you trust.
- Spending more money on gambling than you originally planned, regularly exceeding your own self-set limits.
- Chasing losses — continuing to play in an attempt to win back money that has already been lost.
- Gambling with money set aside for essential needs — rent, groceries, utility bills, family expenses.
- Lying to family members or close friends about how much time or money you spend gambling.
- Using gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety, depression or difficult personal situations rather than addressing them.
- Feeling restless, irritable or anxious when you are not gambling or when you try to stop.
- Neglecting work, studies, relationships or personal wellbeing as a result of time or money spent gambling.
If you recognise several of these signs in yourself, the most important thing you can do is reach out — to a friend, a family member, or the ck48 support team. Asking for help is not a weakness. It is the most practical step you can take to get your gambling back under control. ck48's support team is available around the clock in Bangladesh Standard Time and will handle any sensitive conversation with complete confidentiality.
Protecting Minors
Underage Gambling Prevention
ck48 strictly prohibits gambling by anyone under the age of 21. Every new registration requires confirmation of age, and ck48 reserves the right to request identity documents at any point during an account's lifetime. Any account found to be operated by a person under 21 will be closed immediately, all funds forfeited, and the matter reported as appropriate.
If you share a device — a smartphone, tablet or laptop — with younger family members, ck48 strongly urges you to keep your account credentials private and to always log out fully after each session. Do not save your password in a shared browser. Consider installing parental control software on shared devices to restrict access to gambling-related websites. Responsibility for preventing underage access to a ck48 account rests with the account holder.
If you are aware that a person under 21 has gained access to a ck48 account — whether through your device, your account, or a separately created account — please notify ck48 support immediately via live chat. Reports of underage gambling are treated with the utmost priority and complete confidentiality. ck48 thanks all players who help uphold the integrity of the platform for the benefit of the entire Bangladesh community.
Get Support
Where to Get Help If Gambling Becomes a Problem
If you feel that gambling is having a negative impact on your life, your finances, your relationships or your mental health, please do not wait. Help is available, and the first step is simply reaching out. The channels below are available to all players.
Contact the ck48 support team at any time via live chat on ck48.org. The team is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in Bangladesh Standard Time. You can request activation of any responsible gaming tool, including self-exclusion, in the same conversation. All discussions are treated with complete confidentiality.
Send a message to [email protected] for any responsible gaming query. Email responses are sent within 24 hours. If your matter is urgent — for example, if you need to activate a self-exclusion immediately — please use the live chat channel for a faster response.
If you feel you need to speak to a professional counsellor about gambling-related concerns, ck48 encourages you to seek support from a qualified mental health professional or addiction counsellor in Bangladesh. Kaan Pete Roi, a Bangladesh-based emotional support helpline, can be reached for mental health support. Your doctor or local healthcare provider can also refer you to appropriate services.
Safe Play Tips
Practical Tips for Staying in Control
Set a budget before you start every session and treat it as the maximum you are willing to spend — not a target you are trying to reach. Once the budget is gone, the session is over. Do not transfer additional funds mid-session. The enjoyment of gambling comes from the experience, not from the outcome of any single bet. A ৳500 session that stays within budget is a successful session, regardless of whether you win or lose.
Never gamble when you are tired, stressed, upset, or under the influence of alcohol. These states impair your judgement and make it harder to stick to your pre-set limits. Gambling should be something you do when you are relaxed and clear-headed — a leisure activity in the same category as watching the BPL, going to a restaurant in Old Dhaka, or spending a weekend in Cox's Bazar. The moment gambling starts to feel like an obligation, a solution or an escape, that is the moment to take a break.
Take regular breaks during a session — step away from the screen every 30 to 45 minutes, even briefly. Use ck48's built-in reality check feature to prompt these breaks automatically. Keep gambling in proportion to the rest of your life: if you find yourself thinking about your next session during meals, at work, during family time or before sleep, that is a signal that gambling is taking up more headspace than is healthy. Talk openly to someone you trust about your gambling habits — not because it is a problem, but because openness is one of the best defences against it becoming one.
