Responsible Gaming
at 24bd9
At 24bd9, we believe that gambling should always be an enjoyable form of entertainment — never a source of stress, financial hardship, or personal harm. Our responsible gaming framework provides every player in Bangladesh with the tools, information, and support needed to stay in control.
1 Our Commitment to Safe Play
24bd9 was built with player wellbeing at the centre of every decision. While we offer a wide range of exciting products — from cricket outright betting and BPL markets to live casino tables, slot games, and crash titles — we firmly believe that gambling must always remain a form of leisure and entertainment. It should never be used as a means to generate income, escape personal problems, or cope with emotional difficulties.
Our Responsible Gaming programme is not a legal formality. It is a genuine, actively maintained commitment to the players across Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, Barisal, Rangpur, Mymensingh, and Cox's Bazar who choose to play on 24bd9. We have invested in practical tools that give players real control over their activity, a dedicated support team available around the clock, and a culture internally where player safety is treated as a non-negotiable priority.
We recognise that for a small proportion of players, gambling can become a problem. When that happens, we want 24bd9 to be part of the solution — not part of the problem. Every feature described on this page is available to all registered players, free of charge, and can be activated immediately upon request. No waiting periods, no complicated forms, no barriers.
Deposit Limits
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit caps to keep your spending within a budget you are comfortable with.
Loss Limits
Define a maximum loss threshold so that the platform automatically pauses your session when the limit is reached.
Session Time Limits
Cap the amount of time you spend on 24bd9 per session or per day, with an automatic logout when the timer expires.
Time-Out Breaks
Take a short cooling-off break of 24 hours, 48 hours, or up to 30 days without permanently closing your account.
Self-Exclusion
Request a longer-term exclusion of 6 months, 1 year, or 5 years if you need a more serious break from gambling.
Reality Check Alerts
Receive on-screen reminders at regular intervals showing how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered.
2 18+ Age Restriction
24bd9 strictly enforces an 18+ age requirement across all of its products and services. We do not permit anyone under the age of 18 to register an account, make a deposit, claim a bonus, or participate in any form of gambling on the platform. This policy is non-negotiable and applies uniformly to all players regardless of location.
Age Verification Process
During the registration process, all new players on 24bd9 are required to confirm that they are aged 18 or above. Following registration, and before any withdrawal is processed, players must complete our Know Your Customer (KYC) verification by submitting a valid government-issued identity document such as a National Identity Card (NID) or passport. Date of birth is verified as part of this process.
If our team identifies any reason to suspect that a player may be under the age of 18 — including through unusual account behaviour, inconsistent personal details, or a third-party report — the account will be suspended pending a full age verification review. During any suspension period, the player will not be able to place bets, make deposits, or request withdrawals.
Protecting Minors from Accessing 24bd9
If you share a device or internet connection with a person under the age of 18, we strongly recommend that you take the following precautions to prevent accidental or deliberate access to the 24bd9 platform by a minor:
- Do not save your 24bd9 login credentials in your browser or on your device where they could be accessed by a minor.
- Always log out of your 24bd9 account fully when you have finished your session, especially on shared devices.
- Use a screen lock, PIN, or biometric authentication on any device that a minor may have access to.
- Consider using parental control software on family devices to block access to gambling websites.
- Speak openly with young people in your household about the risks associated with gambling and the importance of the 18+ rule.
3 Responsible Gaming Tools
24bd9 provides a comprehensive set of account management tools that allow you to set boundaries on your gambling activity. These controls are designed to help you stay within limits you are comfortable with, long before your gambling could become a concern. We encourage all players — not just those experiencing difficulties — to use these tools as a matter of routine.
Deposit Limits
You can set a maximum deposit limit on your 24bd9 account on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once a deposit limit is set, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased without a mandatory cooling-off period (typically 7 days) to prevent impulsive decisions made under pressure. Reducing a deposit limit takes effect immediately. To set or adjust your deposit limit, log in to your account and navigate to the responsible gaming section of your account settings, or contact our support team at [email protected].
Loss Limits
A loss limit allows you to specify the maximum net loss you are willing to accept over a defined period — daily, weekly, or monthly. When your net losses reach the threshold you have set, 24bd9 will automatically suspend your ability to place further bets until the limit period resets. Like deposit limits, reductions are applied immediately while increases require a cooling-off period.
Session Time Limits & Reality Checks
You can set a maximum session duration on your account, after which you will be automatically logged out. Independently, you can enable reality check alerts — periodic on-screen notifications (every 30, 60, or 90 minutes) that display your current session duration, total bets placed, and net win or loss for the session. These reminders are designed to interrupt autopilot gambling and encourage you to make a conscious decision about whether to continue.
Time-Out (Short-Term Break)
If you feel you need a short break from 24bd9 without permanently closing your account, the time-out feature allows you to temporarily suspend your account for a period of your choosing — 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out period, you will not be able to log in, place bets, or make deposits. Any pending withdrawal requests will still be processed. At the end of the time-out period, your account will automatically reactivate. To activate a time-out, contact support at [email protected].
4 Self-Exclusion Programme
Self-exclusion is the most powerful responsible gaming tool available on 24bd9. It is designed for players who recognise that their gambling has become or is at risk of becoming a serious problem, and who need a firm, enforceable barrier to prevent further gambling activity. Unlike a time-out, self-exclusion is a long-term measure with a minimum duration of six months.
Once self-exclusion is activated on your 24bd9 account, your account will be immediately suspended. You will not be able to log in, place bets, or make deposits for the full duration of the exclusion period you have chosen. 24bd9 will also cease sending you any marketing or promotional communications for the duration of the exclusion. If your account holds a positive balance at the time of exclusion, you may request a withdrawal of that balance.
Available Self-Exclusion Periods
- 6 Months: A medium-term exclusion for players seeking a significant break from gambling.
- 1 Year: A longer exclusion for players who want more time away from all gambling activity.
- 5 Years: An extended exclusion for players with serious gambling concerns.
- Permanent Exclusion: For players who wish to close their 24bd9 account permanently. This action cannot be reversed.

5 Recognising Problem Gambling
Problem gambling does not always look dramatic. It can develop gradually, often without the affected person realising how serious it has become. Being aware of the warning signs — both in yourself and in people around you — is the first step toward addressing a gambling problem before it causes significant harm.
The following behaviours are commonly associated with problem gambling. If you recognise several of these patterns in your own gambling activity, we strongly encourage you to use one of the responsible gaming tools available on 24bd9 or to reach out for professional support.
If you recognise these patterns in someone close to you — a family member or friend — you can contact 24bd9 support at [email protected] to discuss your concerns. While we cannot share account details with third parties, we can provide guidance on the steps available to help someone who may be gambling irresponsibly.
6 Self-Assessment Checklist
The following checklist is based on widely recognised screening questions used by gambling support professionals. Honest reflection on these questions can help you understand your current relationship with gambling and decide whether any action is needed. This is not a clinical diagnostic tool — it is a starting point for self-awareness.
Reflect Honestly on the Following Questions
If you answer "yes" to three or more of these questions, we encourage you to activate one or more of the responsible gaming tools available on 24bd9 or to seek guidance from a professional support organisation.
- Have you ever gambled with money that was originally intended for essential expenses such as rent, food, utilities, or family needs?
- Have you ever tried to win back money you lost gambling — and then lost even more in the process?
- Have you found it difficult to stop gambling once you have started, even when you planned to play for only a short time?
- Have you felt anxious, irritable, or depressed when you were not able to gamble?
- Have you hidden your gambling habits or the amount of money you have spent from family members or close friends?
- Have you borrowed money, sold personal belongings, or used credit to finance gambling?
- Has gambling ever caused serious conflict in your personal relationships, or affected your performance at work or in your studies?
- Have you ever thought about gambling almost constantly, even when you are doing other things?
7 Protecting Vulnerable Players
24bd9 is committed to identifying and protecting players who may be in a vulnerable situation. A vulnerable player is someone whose ability to make rational decisions about gambling may be impaired — whether due to age, financial stress, mental health challenges, substance use, or a diagnosed gambling disorder.
How 24bd9 Identifies Vulnerability
Our customer support and compliance teams are trained to recognise indicators of vulnerability or problem gambling in player behaviour. These indicators include a rapid escalation in deposit amounts, unusually long session durations, repeated deposits immediately following a large loss, communication that suggests emotional distress, and requests for information about how to increase deposit limits while also expressing concern about losses.
When our team identifies such indicators, we may proactively contact the player to check in on their wellbeing, provide information about available responsible gaming tools, or, in serious cases, apply temporary account restrictions as a precautionary measure. We will always communicate any account action clearly and promptly to the affected player.
Third-Party Concerns
If you are a family member, partner, or friend concerned about another person's gambling on 24bd9, you are welcome to contact us at [email protected]. While data protection obligations prevent us from disclosing account details, we can advise on the support options available and, in appropriate circumstances, escalate concerns internally for review.
Financial Hardship
If you are experiencing financial hardship and are gambling in an attempt to improve your situation, please stop and seek help. Gambling is not a reliable way to generate income — the mathematical advantage always rests with the platform over the long term. If financial difficulties are driving your gambling behaviour, we encourage you to reach out to a financial counsellor or debt support service in addition to using 24bd9's account restriction tools.
8 Getting Help & Support
If gambling has become a problem for you or for someone you care about, please know that help is available. Reaching out is the most important step, and you do not have to manage this alone. Below are the support channels available through 24bd9 and guidance on seeking professional help.
24bd9 Support Team
Our dedicated support team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Contact us at [email protected] to activate any responsible gaming tool, request self-exclusion, or simply talk to someone about your concerns. We will respond promptly and treat all communications with complete discretion.
Responsible Gaming Request via Email
Send an email to [email protected] with the subject line "Responsible Gaming Request" to activate deposit limits, loss limits, session time limits, a time-out, or self-exclusion. Please include your registered email address and the specific tool or action you require. We will confirm activation within 24 hours.
Professional Gambling Support
For professional counselling and support beyond what 24bd9 can provide, we encourage players in Bangladesh to speak with a qualified mental health professional or a counsellor with experience in behavioural addictions. Internationally recognised resources such as Gamblers Anonymous (www.gamblersanonymous.org) and the National Council on Problem Gambling provide guidance, peer support, and treatment referrals for individuals affected by problem gambling worldwide.
Support for Family & Friends
If someone close to you is struggling with problem gambling, you may find support through Gam-Anon (www.gam-anon.org), which offers resources specifically for family members and loved ones of people affected by gambling disorders. Supporting a person with a gambling problem can be emotionally challenging, and it is important to seek support for yourself as well.
24bd9 is committed to continuously improving our responsible gaming programme. If you have suggestions for additional tools or resources that would help players in Bangladesh manage their gambling more effectively, please share your feedback with our team at [email protected].
