Gambling Is Entertainment — Keep It That Way

For the vast majority of players on hebaji, placing a bet on a BPL cricket match or spinning the reels on a favourite slot is a fun, recreational activity with a defined budget and a clear stopping point. That is exactly how it should be.

However, hebaji recognises that for some people, gambling can move beyond entertainment and begin to create difficulties. Problem gambling is a recognised condition that can affect anyone — regardless of age, income, or experience level. The risks are real, and hebaji takes its duty of care to players seriously.

The responsible gaming tools and information on this page are here to help you maintain a healthy relationship with gambling. Whether you want to set spending limits, take a short break, or access support, hebaji provides the controls you need — directly within your account, at any time.

Age Restriction: The hebaji platform is strictly for adults aged 18 and above. Players who are found to be under 18 will have their accounts permanently closed and all associated funds forfeited. If you know of a minor accessing hebaji, please contact our support team immediately.

Is Your Gambling Still Recreational?

Ask yourself these questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to two or more, it may be time to use one of the tools below or speak to a support professional.

1

Do you bet more money than you originally planned when you sit down to play?

2

Have you borrowed money or sold possessions to fund your gambling?

3

Do you feel restless or irritable when you try to reduce or stop gambling?

4

Have you tried — and failed — to cut back on the time or money you spend gambling?

5

Do you chase losses by placing further bets to try to recover what you have lost?

If any of these resonate with you, reach out to the hebaji support team or activate a self-exclusion directly from your account settings. Help is available 24/7.

Responsible Gaming Tools on hebaji

Every one of these tools is available to all registered players directly within the Account Settings panel — no waiting period, no paperwork, no need to contact support first (except where noted).

01
Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you can deposit into your hebaji account. Once the limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Limits take effect immediately when set, but increases require a 24-hour cooling-off period before they come into force.

Available instantly in Account Settings

02
Session Time Limits

Set a maximum session length so that hebaji automatically alerts you — or logs you out — when you have been playing for a defined period. Choose from 30-minute, 1-hour, 2-hour, or custom duration alerts. Regular breaks help maintain perspective and prevent impulsive decisions.

Available instantly in Account Settings

03
Loss Limits

Define the maximum amount you are comfortable losing in a given time period. If your net losses reach the configured threshold, you will be prevented from placing further bets until the limit period resets. Like deposit limits, reductions take effect immediately while increases require a mandatory cooling-off window.

Available instantly in Account Settings

04
Reality Check Reminders

Enable on-screen pop-up reminders at regular intervals while you are logged in. Each reminder shows you how long you have been playing, your net position for the session, and the option to continue or end your session. These reminders are designed to keep you grounded and in control without interrupting gameplay unnecessarily.

Available instantly in Account Settings

05
Time-Out / Cool-Off Period

Take a short break from the platform without permanently closing your account. Time-out periods are available for 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. Your account data and any pending withdrawals remain intact. The time-out cannot be reversed once activated — it must run its full course.

Cannot be reversed once activated

06
Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is a formal, binding commitment to stop gambling on hebaji for a minimum of six months, with options extending to one year, three years, or indefinitely. During self-exclusion, your account is suspended, all marketing communications are stopped, and you will be prevented from creating new accounts. To apply, contact the hebaji support team directly — this tool requires human review to ensure it is applied correctly and cannot be self-reversed during the exclusion period.

Contact support to activate — minimum 6 months

Recognising the Warning Signs

Problem gambling rarely announces itself loudly. It tends to develop gradually through small behavioural shifts that are easy to rationalise in the moment. The following are widely recognised warning signs. If several of these apply to you or someone you know, take action sooner rather than later.

  • Spending more money on gambling than originally budgeted, regularly and over an extended period
  • Lying to family members or friends about the frequency or amounts of gambling activity
  • Using gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety, depression, or personal problems
  • Neglecting work, studies, family responsibilities, or social relationships due to time spent gambling
  • Feeling a compulsive need to increase bet sizes to achieve the same level of excitement
  • Chasing losses with the belief that a "big win" is due and will solve financial problems
  • Repeatedly failing to follow through on decisions to cut back or stop gambling
  • Borrowing money, taking out loans, or selling valuables specifically to fund gambling
  • Experiencing mood swings, irritability, or distress when unable to access gambling

Tips for Safer Gambling

The following practical habits can help you keep gambling in its proper place as a form of leisure — not a financial strategy or emotional crutch.

Set a Hard Budget Before You Start

Decide exactly how much you are comfortable spending before you open the app. Treat that amount as entertainment spending — not as an investment — and stop when it is gone.

Use a Timer

Set a physical or phone timer before each session. When the timer ends, your session ends — regardless of whether you are ahead or behind. Use hebaji's built-in session time limit as your safety net.

Never Chase Losses

The single most dangerous habit in gambling is chasing a losing streak with larger bets. Each bet is independent — no "comeback" is owed to you by the game. If you are losing, the responsible action is to stop for the day.

Keep Other Interests Active

Gambling is healthiest when it is one of many recreational activities in your life — not the primary one. Maintaining friendships, hobbies, and physical activity outside of gambling keeps perspective in balance.

Adults Only Platform

Protecting Underage Players

hebaji enforces a strict minimum age of 18 years for all players. During account registration, all applicants are required to confirm their date of birth. Account holders who cannot verify their age through the KYC process will have their accounts suspended pending verification, and any funds in an account found to belong to a minor will be forfeited.

Parents and guardians in Bangladesh are encouraged to take the following steps to prevent underage access to online gambling platforms:

  • Install parental control and content-filtering software on shared devices and home networks
  • Keep login credentials for all financial and gambling accounts private and secure
  • Have open, age-appropriate conversations with children about the risks of gambling
  • Monitor browser history and app usage on devices accessible to minors
  • Contact hebaji support immediately if you believe a minor has accessed or registered on the platform

Zero Tolerance: hebaji operates a zero-tolerance policy on underage gambling. Accounts confirmed to be held by individuals under 18 are permanently closed with no exceptions. Any balance in such accounts is forfeited in full.
