Our Commitment

Gambling is Entertainment — It Should Stay That Way

At BestBet, responsible gaming is not a box we tick to satisfy a checklist. It is a core part of how the platform operates. Every tool described on this page is genuinely available, genuinely functional, and genuinely supported by a team that cares about the wellbeing of Pakistani players — not just their deposits.

The reality is that most people who play on BestBet — whether they are betting on PSL, enjoying Teen Patti, playing Ludo, or trying crash games — do so without ever experiencing a problem. Gambling is a form of entertainment for the vast majority of players, and BestBet wants to keep it that way. But for a small number of people, gambling can shift from being fun to becoming something harder to manage. When that happens, BestBet wants to be the platform that noticed, reached out, and made it easy to get back in control.

This page explains the responsible gaming tools available to every BestBet player, the warning signs that gambling may have stopped being fun, how to use the self-assessment quiz to check in with yourself honestly, and how to activate account protections in under two minutes from your BestBet account settings.

18+ only. BestBet is strictly for adults aged 18 and over. All responsible gaming tools are free to use and take effect immediately when activated. Using them has no negative impact on your account standing, your ability to play when you return, or your access to any future promotions.

Tools Available to Every Player

BestBet Responsible Gaming Tools

These tools are in your account settings right now. No form to fill, no support ticket to raise. Just open the settings menu and take control.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum amount you can deposit in a day, a week, or a month. Once you hit the limit, no more deposits are accepted until the period resets. Reducing your limit takes effect immediately. Increasing it requires a 24-hour cooling period before it comes into force.

Instant activation
Loss Limits

Set a cap on how much you can lose over a defined period. When your losses reach the limit you have set, your account is automatically restricted from further play until the period resets. A practical way to make sure a bad session has a built-in stop point.

Instant activation
Session Time Reminders

Set a reminder to appear after a specified amount of time spent on BestBet in a single session — 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours. When the timer runs out, a notification prompts you to take a break. No automatic lock-out, just a nudge to check in with yourself.

Customisable
Cooling-Off Period

Take a break from BestBet for a set period — 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Your account is suspended for the duration with no way to override it early. All bets already placed are settled normally. Your balance is safe and will be there when you return.

Instant activation
Self-Exclusion

Exclude yourself from BestBet for 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. Self-exclusion takes effect immediately and cannot be reversed during the selected period — no exceptions, no early cancellation. During exclusion, BestBet will not send you marketing communications. Any balance will be returned to your verified payment method.

Immediate & irreversible
Reality Check Notifications

Enable on-screen messages that appear at set intervals showing you how long you have been playing and how much you have spent in the current session. Seeing the real numbers in real time is one of the most effective ways to stay aware of your activity.

Warning Signs

Signs That Gambling May Have Stopped Being Fun

Most people who gamble never experience serious problems. But it is worth checking in with yourself from time to time. If several of the following feel familiar, it may be worth speaking to BestBet support or activating a cooling-off period.

1
Chasing losses: Continuing to bet after a losing session specifically to win back what you lost, rather than because you are enjoying the game itself.
2
Betting more than you can afford: Using money set aside for rent, household expenses, or family needs to fund gambling activity.
3
Hiding your activity: Being secretive with family about how much you are gambling or how much you have won or lost.
4
Gambling affecting relationships: Arguments at home about time or money spent on betting. Feeling irritable or withdrawn when you are not able to play.
5
Difficulty stopping: Finding it hard to walk away from a session, even when you intended to. Continuing to play well past the time you planned to stop.
6
Gambling to escape: Using betting or gaming as a way to cope with stress, anxiety, financial pressure, or family problems rather than as entertainment.
7
Borrowing to gamble: Taking loans, borrowing from friends or family, or using credit specifically to fund gambling activity.
Self-Assessment

Quick Check-In — Is Your Gambling Under Control?

This is not a medical test. It is a private, honest check-in for your own benefit. Tick any statements that apply to you in the past 30 days, then press the button to see a reflection.

You seem to be in control. Based on your responses, gambling appears to be entertainment for you. Keep it that way — stick to a session budget, use BestBet's deposit limits as a safety net, and check back in with yourself regularly.
Some yellow flags here. A few of your responses suggest gambling may occasionally be causing stress or going beyond what you planned. Consider setting a deposit limit or session reminder in your BestBet account settings. Taking a short cooling-off break is also a low-commitment way to reset. There is no shame in this — catching it early is the smart move.
Please consider reaching out for support. Several of your responses suggest gambling may be causing real difficulties. We strongly encourage you to activate a self-exclusion through your BestBet account settings, or contact our support team directly. You deserve support, and it is available — 24/7, without judgement.

For Families and Loved Ones

If Someone You Know Has a Gambling Problem

Gambling problems do not only affect the person who is gambling — they affect the whole household. If you are worried about a family member or someone close to you in Pakistan, this section is for you.

The most common mistake families make is treating the subject as shameful or confronting it with anger. Neither approach helps. Problem gambling is a behavioural condition, not a character flaw. The most effective responses involve calm, honest conversation, practical steps like limiting access to funds, and encouraging the person to seek help voluntarily.

Here are some practical steps if you are concerned about someone's gambling:

  • Have a calm, private conversation that focuses on your concern for their wellbeing — not on blame or the amounts of money involved.
  • Avoid repeatedly bailing them out of gambling debts — it removes the natural consequence that often motivates someone to seek help.
  • If you share finances, consider separating accounts or introducing visibility into spending without confrontation.
  • Contact BestBet's support team. If you know their registered email address, you can request that our responsible gaming team reach out to them proactively. We will do so sensitively and without disclosing who contacted us.
  • Look after your own mental health too — supporting someone with a gambling problem is genuinely stressful, and you deserve support as well.

BestBet support can be reached 24/7 at support@bestbet-bangla.com. Family members can contact us about a player's account on a confidential basis. We will not confirm or deny account details, but we can flag the account for welfare monitoring and arrange a proactive outreach.

Frequently Asked Questions

Responsible Gaming – Common Questions

No. Self-exclusion on BestBet is irreversible for the duration you selected. This is deliberate — the whole point of self-exclusion is that it cannot be undone impulsively. If you selected 6 months, your account remains excluded for 6 months, no matter what. Once the period ends, you can contact support to discuss reactivation, and we will do so with appropriate care.

No. Responsible gaming tools do not affect your eligibility for bonuses. If a promotional deposit falls within your limit, it will be processed and the bonus applied as normal. If the promotional deposit exceeds your current limit, you will need to adjust the limit — but remember, limit increases have a 24-hour delay by design.

Your balance is safe. Any real-money funds in your account at the time of self-exclusion will be returned to the payment method used for your most recent deposit — typically within 3–5 business days. You can contact support to request an expedited return if you need the funds sooner.

Currently, BestBet's deposit and loss limits apply across the entire platform — they are not game-specific. This is intentional: a limit is most effective when it covers all activity. If you need game-specific controls, contact our support team and we can discuss options manually.

No. Marketing and promotional emails are automatically suspended for the duration of any cooling-off period or self-exclusion. You will still receive transactional emails — such as withdrawal confirmations — but you will not receive any promotional content designed to bring you back to the platform during a break.

You can request a limit increase at any time, but the increase will not take effect for 24 hours after your request. This waiting period is built in to protect you from making impulsive decisions in the heat of the moment. Reductions, on the other hand, take effect immediately.
