Important Warning

Gaming is entertainment. Never play with borrowed money or funds set aside for essential expenses. Repeatedly chasing losses is a sign of addiction. If you feel gaming is negatively affecting your life, family, or finances — please seek help now.

6 Core Principles of Responsible Gaming

Xo99 is committed to providing a safe gaming environment for every member. Follow these 6 principles to keep gaming fun.

Set a budget upfront

Before you start playing, decide how much you're willing to spend that day. Once you hit that limit, the smart move is to stop. Sticking to a budget is the first rule of responsible gaming.

Track your time

Avoid playing for long stretches at a time. Use the session timer on xo99 to manage how long you play. Take breaks and spend time with your family.

Treat it as entertainment

Treating gaming as a source of income creates stress. Responsible gaming means accepting wins and losses naturally and playing purely for fun.

Use Self-Exclusion

If you feel like you're losing control of your gaming, use xo99's Self-Exclusion feature to lock your account for a set period of time.

Talk to your family

Keep your family informed about your gaming habits. If they're concerned, take it seriously. Family support is the strongest foundation for responsible gaming.

Don't hesitate to ask for help

Gaming addiction is not a weakness — it's a health issue. Don't hesitate to reach out to xo99's support team or a professional organization for help.


Xo99 Protection Tools

Use these tools to take control of your own gaming.

Deposit Limit

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on your deposits. Lowering the limit takes effect immediately; increasing it requires a 7-day waiting period.

Session Time Limit

Set how long you want to play in a single session. When the time is up, you'll be automatically notified and your session will end.

Reality Check

At set intervals, a pop-up will notify you how long you've been playing and your total winnings or losses in BDT.

Cooling-Off

Temporarily lock your account for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. You won't be able to log in during this period.

Self-Exclusion

Enable long-term Self-Exclusion for anywhere from 6 months to 5 years. No promotional offers will be sent while Self-Exclusion is active.

What Is Responsible Gaming and Why It Matters

Responsible gaming means keeping gaming a balanced and enjoyable experience — staying aware of your own limits and having the courage to seek help when needed. xo99 has made this a top priority from day one.

Online gaming is growing fast in Bangladesh — and so is the risk of addiction. xo99's Responsible Gaming policy isn't just a legal formality; it reflects our genuine commitment to the well-being of our members.

Research shows that people who game responsibly enjoy it more in the long run and are better protected from financial harm. All responsible gaming features on xo99 are completely free and available at any time.

Remember: winning is never guaranteed in gaming. There's always a chance you'll lose — so only play with money you can afford to lose without it affecting your daily life.

Recognize the Signs of Addiction

Gaming addiction develops gradually. Often, you don't even notice when a fun hobby starts becoming a problem. Check yourself against the signs below:

  • Feeling compelled to keep playing in order to recover lost money
  • Cutting back on family time or work because of gaming
  • Feeling restless or irritable when not gaming
  • Hiding the amount you game or spend from family or friends
  • Repeatedly trying to stop gaming but failing
  • Taking on debt or facing financial difficulties due to gaming
  • Thinking about gaming constantly, even when you're not playing
If 3 or more signs apply to you: Please contact xo99 support or activate self-exclusion. This is not a weakness — it takes courage.

Minor Protection

Only individuals aged 18 or above may register on xo99. Protecting minors from gambling is both our top priority and our legal obligation.

  • Age is verified at the time of registration
  • ID verification is required for KYC
  • Suspicious accounts are suspended immediately
  • Family members can enable parental controls

If you have children or teenagers at home, use a password or PIN on your device. Make sure minors cannot access the xo99 app or website.

Check Yourself

Think about your gaming habits over the past 30 days and honestly answer the following questions

1
Have you spent more than your set budget on gaming?
2
Have you repeatedly tried to win back money you've lost?
3
Has gaming caused you to give less attention to your family or work?
4
Have you hidden your gaming habits from people close to you?
5
Have you felt restless or irritable when you weren't gaming?
6
Have you tried to quit gaming but been unable to?
If you answered "Yes" to 2 or more questions — Reach out to our support team. Asking for help is always the smartest move.

Practical Tips for Safe Gaming

  • Set a monthly gaming budget: Set aside a portion of your monthly entertainment budget for gaming — and never go beyond that limit.
  • Set a time limit before you play: Decide in advance how long you'll play each day. xo99's session timer is there to help you stick to it.
  • Take a break: Take at least a 15-minute break every hour. Get up, drink some water, take a short walk. Playing for long stretches reduces focus and weakens your ability to make good decisions.
  • Don't play on emotion: Avoid gaming when you're feeling angry, sad, lonely, or stressed. Your judgment is impaired in those states, and the risk of making costly mistakes is much higher.
  • Think of winnings as a bonus: Play for entertainment, not to win. Think of a win as a bonus — and when it doesn't happen, that's perfectly fine.
  • Never play with borrowed money: Gaming with money borrowed from friends, family, or loans is one of the most dangerous habits you can develop. It can lead to serious financial hardship and damaged relationships.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Answers to common questions about responsible gaming.

When Self-Exclusion is active, you won't be able to log in or play any games for the duration you've chosen. Your account will not be deleted — it will be reactivated once the exclusion period ends. You will not receive any promotional messages during this time.

Lowering your deposit limit takes effect immediately. However, increasing it requires a 7-day waiting period. This rule is in place to protect you from impulsive overspending in the heat of the moment.

If a family member is struggling with gaming addiction, start by speaking with them compassionately. Encourage them to use xo99's self-exclusion feature. If needed, reach out to our support team — we'll do our best to help. Seeking professional counseling is also highly effective.

Cooling-Off is short-term — from 24 hours up to 30 days. It gives you a chance to pause and step back. Self-Exclusion is long-term — from 6 months up to 5 years. It's the more effective option for serious addiction. In both cases, the period cannot be ended early.

Yes, all of xo99's Responsible Gaming features are completely free. Deposit limits, session timers, reality checks, cooling-off, and self-exclusion — none of these carry any extra charge, and using them won't affect your bonuses or any other benefits.
