Responsible Gaming at gbage
Tools, limits, and support to keep your play safe, fun, and in control — for every player in Bangladesh. 21+ only.
gbage is built around the belief that gambling should be an entertaining activity enjoyed responsibly — never a source of financial hardship or personal distress. We provide a range of practical tools that put you in control of your gaming habits, and our support team is available 24/7 if you ever feel that gambling is causing you or someone close to you a problem.
This page describes the responsible gaming tools available on gbage, explains warning signs of problem gambling, and provides guidance on where to get help if you or someone you know needs it. All tools described here are available free of charge to every registered player in Bangladesh — from Dhaka and Chittagong to Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, and beyond.
Player Protection Tools
Every registered gbage player has access to the following responsible gaming tools directly within their account settings. You do not need to contact support to activate any of these — they are built into the platform and available immediately.
Set daily, weekly, or monthly caps on how much you can deposit. Limits take effect immediately and can only be lowered in real time — increases require a 24-hour cooling period.
Decide how long each gaming session lasts. When your session limit is reached, gbage will automatically log you out and display a reminder to take a break.
Take a short break from gambling by activating a cooling-off period of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time your account remains open but deposits and betting are disabled.
Permanently or temporarily block your own access to gbage for periods of 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or indefinitely. Self-exclusion cannot be reversed during the active exclusion window.
View a full history of your deposits, withdrawals, bets placed, and session times — so you always have a clear, factual picture of your gambling spend over any period.
Set periodic on-screen pop-up reminders at intervals of your choice (15 min, 30 min, 1 hour). Each reminder shows how long you have been playing and how much you have spent in that session.

Self-Exclusion Explained
Self-exclusion is the most powerful responsible gaming tool available on gbage. It allows you to block yourself from accessing your account entirely for a defined period. It is designed for players who feel their gambling has become a problem and who want a firm, enforced break.
Once activated, self-exclusion immediately locks your gbage account. You will be logged out and will not be able to log back in, deposit, or place bets for the full duration of the exclusion period. Any pending withdrawals will be processed to your registered payment method. Bonus balances are forfeited on self-exclusion. The exclusion cannot be lifted early under any circumstances.
gbage offers the following self-exclusion periods: 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, and indefinite (permanent). An indefinite exclusion can only be reviewed after a minimum of 5 years have elapsed, at which point the player must make a formal written request to [email protected], complete a cooling-off interview, and wait a further 7 days before reinstatement is considered.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Gambling problems can develop gradually and are not always obvious to the person experiencing them. The following warning signs may indicate that gambling has moved from entertainment to a harmful habit. If several of these apply to you, we strongly encourage you to use the gbage responsible gaming tools or seek professional support.
- Gambling with money intended for rent, food, utilities, or family expenses — even temporarily.
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling activity.
- Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when not gambling, or when trying to cut back.
- Chasing losses — placing larger or riskier bets to try to recover money already lost.
- Lying to family or friends about how much time or money is being spent on gambling.
- Gambling interfering with work, study, family relationships, or social life.
- Repeatedly and unsuccessfully trying to stop or limit gambling despite wanting to do so.

Protecting Young People – 21+ Policy
The gbage platform is strictly for adults aged 21 and above. No exceptions are made. During account registration, every applicant must confirm that they are 21 or older. gbage reserves the right to request documentary proof of age (such as a national ID card or passport) at any time, and to immediately close any account found to belong to a person under 21 years of age.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe a minor in your household may have accessed gbage, please contact [email protected] immediately so we can investigate and take appropriate action. We also strongly recommend the use of parental control software on shared devices to prevent minors from accessing online gambling platforms of any kind.
On Android devices, Google Family Link allows parents to set content restrictions and approve or block app installs. On iOS, Screen Time can restrict access to gambling websites by category. Third-party tools such as Net Nanny and Qustodio are available in Bangladesh and provide cross-device filtering. gbage recommends all households with minors install one of these solutions on any shared device.

Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
gbage is committed to responsible gaming not as a legal formality but as a core operating principle. We train our customer support team to identify and sensitively handle interactions with players who may be experiencing gambling-related difficulties. Our platform algorithms monitor for behavioural patterns — such as sudden large deposit increases or extended session times — that may indicate a player is at risk, and our team will proactively reach out when these patterns are detected.
We regularly review and update our responsible gaming tools to reflect industry best practice and the specific needs of our player base in Bangladesh. We do not target advertising at players who have voluntarily set limits or entered cooling-off periods, and we never use bonus offers to encourage a player who has flagged gambling concerns to continue playing.
