What Is Responsible Gaming and Why It Matters
Responsible gaming means treating gaming or betting purely as a form of entertainment — not as a livelihood or income source. hhbd1 believes every player deserves a safe and enjoyable gaming experience, which is why responsible gaming has been central to our platform from the very beginning.
Millions of people in Bangladesh enjoy online gaming and betting. But without proper limits, the experience can turn unpleasant. hhbd1's responsible gaming policy is here to help you set those limits.
Keep in mind: If gaming causes anxiety instead of enjoyment, that is a sign of a problem. hhbd1 is here to support you when that happens.
Core Principles of Healthy Gaming
There are some key principles to follow both before and while playing at hhbd1. These habits will keep you on the path of responsible gaming and help you avoid financial or emotional harm:
- Always treat gaming as entertainment, not as a source of income.
- Only place bets with money you can afford to lose without affecting your daily life.
- Decide in advance how much time and money in BDT you are willing to spend each day or week.
- Never game when you're feeling angry, sad, or frustrated.
- Don't chase your losses by placing more bets to recover what you've lost.
- Take regular breaks and spend time with family and friends.
- Avoid gaming entirely when under the influence of alcohol or any substance.
- Do not allow children or minors to access your account.
Warning Signs of Problem Gaming
Sometimes gaming can gradually shift from a habit into a problem. Watch out for these warning signs in yourself:
If you notice two or more of the signs above, contact hhbd1 support immediately or activate the self-exclusion feature.
Hhbd1 Responsible Gaming Tools
Hhbd1 offers a range of effective tools to support responsible gaming. You can adjust any of these at any time from your account settings:
Deposit Limit
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Once the limit is reached, no further deposits will be allowed. Reducing a limit takes effect immediately; increasing a limit takes effect after 24 hours.
Session Time Limit
Set a maximum duration for each gaming session. Once the time is up, you will be logged out automatically.
Cooling-Off Period
Take a break from gaming for anywhere between 24 hours and 30 days. During this time, your account remains active but all betting and gaming will be completely suspended.
Self-Exclusion
Activate long-term Self-Exclusion for a period of 6 months to 5 years. Your account will be fully deactivated during this time and you will not be able to log in.
Reality Check
At set intervals, a message will appear showing how long you have been playing and how much you have spent in BDT. This helps you stay aware of your activity.
Self-Exclusion Process — Step by Step
Activating Self-Exclusion is straightforward. Just follow the steps below:
Log in to your account
Log in to your hhbd1 account and go to your profile settings.
Open the Responsible Gaming menu
Go to Settings and select the "Responsible Gaming" option.
Choose Your Self-Exclusion Duration
