What does responsible gaming actually mean?

Responsible gaming means enjoying the experience while staying in control — you manage the game, not the other way around. At i89, responsible gaming means setting your own time and spending limits, keeping entertainment as the reason you play, and never chasing losses with more bets.

Many people in Bangladesh see online gaming as a quick way to earn money — but in reality, it's a form of entertainment. i89 wants you to treat it that way. Our responsible gaming policy is here to keep you informed and protected.

I89 provides a range of tools for responsible play — deposit limits, session time alerts, self-exclusion options, and more. These tools are in your hands, ready to use whenever you need them.

Keep in mind

Gaming is meant to be fun. The moment it starts feeling like pressure rather than enjoyment, take a break and seek help.

I89's Responsible Gaming Tools

I89 gives you powerful tools to stay in control of your gaming experience

Setting a Deposit Limit

At i89, you can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased before the specified period ends — though you can reduce it at any time. This tool makes it easy to stay on top of your budget.

Session time limit

Extended play sessions reduce focus and impair decision-making. i89's session timer sends you automatic alerts after a set period. You can define your own maximum session length, and there's also an option to be logged out automatically when time is up.

Loss limit

Set a daily or weekly loss limit at i89. Once you reach that amount, the system will automatically stop you from placing further bets. This protects you from making impulsive decisions that lead to bigger losses.

Cooling-Off Period

Sometimes you just need a break. With i89's cooling-off option, you can temporarily suspend your account for anywhere between 24 hours and 30 days. During this period, logging in and placing bets will be completely disabled, though promotional offers will remain active.

Self-Exclusion

If gaming feels like it's getting out of control, choose the self-exclusion option. Your account can be fully closed for anywhere between 6 months and 5 years. During this time, i89 will not send you any promotional messages.

Support & Counseling

I89's support team is trained in responsible gaming. If you want to talk about a gambling problem — yours or someone you know — contact our 24/7 support. All conversations are completely confidential.
