Gaming should be a source of fun — not stress or hardship. Use 61db's responsible gaming tools and guidelines to play safely, and always stay aware of your own limits.
Gaming is a form of entertainment — not a livelihood or a source of income. 61db firmly believes that every player should know their own budget and time limits and play accordingly. Our platform provides a range of tools to help you stay in control.
Responsible gaming means treating gaming or betting as a form of entertainment — where you consciously decide how much time and money you spend. Following responsible gaming principles at 61db means you play with your mental health, family life, and financial wellbeing in mind.
As online gaming continues to grow in Bangladesh, so does awareness around it. Many people start playing thinking it will only be for a short while, but lose track of how much time or money has passed. To help address this, 61db has developed a set of effective tools and policies to help you stay in control at all times.
Responsible Gaming matters not just for the individual, but for the whole family. When someone spends time and money on gaming beyond their means, the impact is felt by those around them too. This is not just a personal choice — it is a shared social responsibility.
Winning and losing in online gaming or betting is a normal part of the experience and outcomes are never guaranteed. No strategy or method can ensure consistent wins. Only wager an amount you can afford to lose without it affecting your daily life.
61db gives you several effective tools to stay in control of your gaming. These tools can be easily activated from your Account Settings and adjusted whenever needed. Some limits can be lowered right away, but increasing them requires a cooling-off period — this is intentional, to prevent impulsive decisions from causing harm.
Set a limit on how much you can deposit daily, weekly, or monthly. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately.
Set a limit on how long you'll spend on the platform in one session. Once that time is up, 61db will automatically alert you or log you out.
Decide in advance how much you're willing to lose in a given period before gaming stops automatically. This is one of the most effective protection tools available.
Need to step away for a while? Activating a Cooling-Off period will prevent you from gaming until the chosen period ends. You can select a duration anywhere from 7 days up to 6 months.
| Tool Name | Time to Take Effect | Waiting for the change | Recommendations |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reducing Your Deposit Limit | Immediate | Not Applicable | For New Players |
| Increasing Your Deposit Limit | After 24 hours | 24-Hour Cooling-Off | Consider carefully |
| Session Limit | Immediate | 24 hours | For Everyday Players |
| Loss Limit | Immediate | 72 Hours | Recommended for everyone |
| Cooling-Off break | Immediate | Automatically at the end of the period | If You Want to Take a Break |
| Self-Exclusion | Immediate | 6 months–5 years lock | In Serious Cases |
61db intentionally builds in a cooling-off period before any limit increase takes effect. The purpose is to prevent impulsive decisions made in the heat of the moment from causing harm. This minor inconvenience is there to protect you.
Gaming addiction or problematic gaming often develops gradually and can be difficult to recognize on your own. 61db wants every player to stay self-aware. If you notice any of the following signs in yourself, please take action without delay.
Repeatedly spending beyond your set budget, or using money meant for essential expenses on gaming.
You keep placing larger bets after a loss, trying to win back what you lost.
Once you start playing, you lose track of time — hours pass without you even noticing.
Hiding or lying to family or friends about your gaming activity.
You feel irritable, restless, or angry when you cannot play, and thoughts about gaming are constantly on your mind.
You are borrowing or considering borrowing money from friends, family, or a bank to fund your gaming.
Spending less time with family, friends, and at work due to gaming, with relationships beginning to suffer.
You've decided to stop but keep coming back, or you keep telling yourself "just one last bet."
If you recognize two or more of the above signs in yourself, it is a cause for concern. This does not mean you have failed — it is simply a signal that action is needed now. Use 61db's Responsible Gaming tools or [email protected]Contact us at
