Player Safety

Responsible Gaming at bf99

Gambling should be fun — never a source of stress or hardship. bf99 provides every player with the tools and guidance needed to stay in control, play within their means, and seek help when needed.

21+
The bf99 platform is strictly for adults aged 21 and above. We verify player age at registration and may request additional identity documents at any time. If you are under 21, you must not use bf99.

Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

bf99 is firmly committed to promoting responsible gaming across all its services — casino, live casino, cricket betting, slots, and every other product available on the platform. We believe that gambling, when kept as a form of entertainment within a player's means, is a positive leisure activity. Our role is to ensure that every player in Bangladesh has access to the information and tools they need to keep it that way.

We recognise that a small number of players may develop a problem relationship with gambling. bf99 takes this seriously. We invest in player protection systems, train our support team on responsible gaming identification and response, and maintain clear, accessible routes to help. If you are struggling with your gambling, bf99 is here to support you — not just as a platform, but as a responsible operator that puts player wellbeing first.

The bf99 Responsible Gaming Pledge
bf99 pledges to: always verify player age before account activation; provide free, accessible responsible gaming tools to every registered player; never encourage players to chase losses or gamble beyond their stated limits; respond to all responsible gaming requests from players promptly and without penalty; and continuously improve our responsible gaming systems in line with industry best practice.

Your Responsible Gaming Tools

Every registered bf99 player has access to the following responsible gaming tools directly from their account dashboard. These tools are available at no cost and can be activated at any time — you do not need to contact support to use them.

💰
Deposit Limits
Set a maximum amount you can deposit into your bf99 account per day, per week, or per month. Limits take effect immediately when reduced. Increasing a limit requires a 24-hour cooling-off period before the new higher limit becomes active.
⏱️
Session Time Limits
Set a maximum duration for each gaming session. When your session limit is reached, you will be automatically logged out. This tool helps you keep track of how long you have been playing and prevents unplanned extended sessions.
🔔
Reality Checks
Configure timed pop-up reminders during active gaming sessions. Reality check notifications appear at intervals you choose (e.g. every 30 minutes) and show you how long you have been playing and how much you have spent in the current session. You choose whether to continue or stop.
🚫
Self-Exclusion
Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing the bf99 platform. Short-term self-exclusion periods are available (e.g. 1 day, 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, 6 months, 1 year). Permanent self-exclusion is also available. During any self-exclusion period, your account will be suspended and you will not receive any promotional communications from bf99.
🔒
Account Cool-Down (Time-Out)
Take a short break from gaming without fully closing your account. A time-out pauses access to your bf99 account for a period of your choosing — from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. Your account balance is preserved and you can return after the cool-down period ends.
📊
Activity History & Spend Tracker
Review a full history of your gaming activity, deposits, withdrawals, and net spend via your bf99 account dashboard. Reviewing your activity history regularly is one of the simplest and most effective responsible gaming habits you can build.

How to Access and Use These Tools

All responsible gaming tools are available from the Account Settings section of your bf99 profile. Log in to your account, navigate to Account Settings, and select the Responsible Gaming tab. From there, you can set or adjust deposit limits, configure session time limits and reality checks, initiate a time-out, or activate self-exclusion. Changes to limits that increase your exposure (e.g. raising a deposit limit) are subject to a mandatory 24-hour review period before they take effect.

If you experience any difficulty accessing or using the responsible gaming tools in your account, contact the bf99 support team immediately. Support is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. A support agent will help you activate any tool you need without delay and without judgement.

ℹ️ Self-exclusion requests submitted via the bf99 platform are processed immediately. Once self-exclusion is active, it cannot be reversed before the exclusion period ends. If you activate self-exclusion and subsequently attempt to circumvent it by opening a new account, please be aware that bf99 will close any such account as a matter of policy.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Gambling becomes a problem when it stops being entertainment and starts affecting other areas of your life. The following are recognised warning signs that your gambling may have become harmful. If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please take action.

  • Spending more money on gambling than you can afford to lose, or using money set aside for essential expenses such as rent, food, utilities, or family needs
  • Chasing losses — continuing to gamble in an attempt to win back money you have already lost
  • Gambling for longer periods than you planned, or being unable to stop when you intended to
  • Lying to family members, friends, or employers about how much time or money you spend on gambling
  • Neglecting work, study, family responsibilities, or personal relationships because of time spent gambling
  • Borrowing money, selling possessions, or taking out loans to fund gambling activity
  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when not gambling, or using gambling as a way to escape from problems or negative emotions

If two or more of the above apply to you, we strongly encourage you to use the self-exclusion tool in your bf99 account settings right now, and to reach out to a support organisation. You do not need to be in crisis to seek help — reaching out early is always the right move.

Quick Self-Assessment

Ask yourself the following questions honestly. If you answer 'yes' to two or more, consider taking a break and speaking to someone you trust or a professional support organisation.

  1. Have you ever spent more on gambling than you originally planned to in a single session?
  2. Have you ever borrowed money or sold something in order to gamble?
  3. Have you ever felt the need to gamble with larger amounts of money to get the same feeling of excitement?
  4. Have you ever tried to cut back on gambling and found it difficult?
  5. Has gambling ever caused arguments or tension with family members or friends?
  6. Have you ever felt guilty, ashamed, or stressed after a gambling session?
  7. Have you ever gambled to escape from personal problems, loneliness, or a low mood?

This self-assessment is a personal tool, not a clinical diagnostic. For a more thorough assessment, speak to a qualified counsellor or contact a gambling support helpline in Bangladesh.

Protecting Minors

bf99 has a zero-tolerance policy on underage gambling. Players must be 21 years of age or older to register and play on the bf99 platform. Age verification is performed at registration, and bf99 reserves the right to request documentary proof of age at any time. Any account found to belong to a player under the age of 21 will be immediately closed and any funds held in the account will be returned net of any withdrawals already made.

If you share a device or home with younger people, we recommend using parental control software to prevent access to online gambling sites. There are several free and paid parental control solutions available in Bangladesh that can be configured to block gambling content on shared devices.

🛡️ If you suspect that a person under 21 has accessed or registered on bf99, please contact the bf99 support team immediately using the contact details on the platform. bf99 will investigate all such reports as a matter of priority and take appropriate action without delay.

Self-Exclusion: A Detailed Guide

Self-exclusion is the most powerful responsible gaming tool available on bf99. When you activate self-exclusion, your account is suspended for the duration of the exclusion period — you will not be able to log in, place bets, or access the casino. Any pending bonuses or promotional offers will be cancelled. Your account balance will remain intact and will be available for withdrawal when your exclusion period ends (for temporary exclusions) or immediately upon request (for permanent exclusions).

Temporary self-exclusion periods available on bf99 are: 1 day, 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, 6 months, and 1 year. Permanent self-exclusion results in the irreversible closure of your bf99 account. If you choose permanent self-exclusion, please ensure you have withdrawn your account balance before activating this option, as account closure under permanent self-exclusion is irreversible.

To activate self-exclusion, log in to your bf99 account, go to Account Settings, select Responsible Gaming, and choose the Self-Exclusion option. Select your desired exclusion period and confirm. If you are unable to access your account to activate self-exclusion, contact the bf99 support team directly — a support agent will activate self-exclusion on your behalf immediately, without requiring you to log in.
