Player Safety & Wellbeing — Bangladesh

Responsible Gaming at six8s

At six8s, we believe that gambling should always be a source of entertainment — never a source of harm. Our Responsible Gaming framework gives every player in Bangladesh the tools, guidance, and support needed to keep their play enjoyable, controlled, and firmly within their personal limits. This page explains how our systems work and what you can do if you ever feel your gambling habits are becoming a concern.

Important Notice: Gambling is intended for adults aged 21 and above only. The six8s platform is strictly off-limits to anyone under the age of 21. If you are experiencing difficulties controlling your gambling, please reach out to our support team immediately at [email protected] — available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Our Commitment to You

six8s takes responsible gaming seriously. We have built our platform from the ground up with player welfare as a core design principle — not an afterthought. Every feature we offer, from deposit limits to self-exclusion, is designed to give you meaningful control over your gambling experience.

We monitor account activity for behavioural patterns that may indicate problem gambling and proactively reach out to players who show signs of distress. Our support team is trained in responsible gaming best practices and can guide you to the right tools or external resources at any time.

Gambling is entertainment. When it stops being fun, six8s is here to help you pause, reset, or step away entirely — without judgment and without delay.

What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming refers to a set of practices and policies that help players gamble in a way that is safe, informed, and within their personal means. It covers everything from understanding the odds to recognising when gambling is no longer a leisure activity and has become a compulsion.

Key principles of responsible gaming include: only gambling with money you can afford to lose, never chasing losses, setting strict time and budget limits before you start a session, and treating gambling as entertainment rather than a way to generate income.

At six8s, we support these principles through practical, accessible tools that you can activate at any time from your account dashboard — no waiting periods, no complex procedures.

Responsible Gaming Tools

six8s provides a full suite of player-protection tools that you can activate instantly from your account. Each tool is designed to put you in control of your own gambling experience.

01
Deposit Limits
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you can deposit into your six8s account. Once the limit is reached, further deposits are blocked until the period resets. Limit reductions take effect immediately; increases require a 7-day cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decisions. Limits can be as low as ৳500 per day, giving you granular control over your budget.
02
Loss Limits
Define the maximum amount you are willing to lose over a given period — daily, weekly, or monthly. When your net losses reach the threshold you have set, your account is automatically restricted from further wagering for the remainder of that period. This tool is particularly useful for managing downswings during cricket betting seasons like BPL or IPL, when the temptation to chase losses can be strongest.
03
Session Time Limits
Set a maximum duration for each gambling session. When the timer runs out, you will receive a prominent on-screen notification and your session will be ended automatically. You can also configure optional reminders at intervals — for example, a check-in alert every 30 minutes — so you always remain aware of how long you have been playing, whether you are on slots, live casino, or cricket betting.
04
Time-Out (Cool-Off Period)
Take a short break from gambling without permanently closing your account. six8s offers time-out periods of 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out, your account is suspended — you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. All pending withdrawals will still be processed normally. Time-outs are a great option if you feel you need a brief pause to reassess your gambling habits.
05
Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion is a more serious long-term measure for players who feel they have lost control of their gambling. You can self-exclude for a minimum of 6 months or permanently. During self-exclusion, your account is fully closed, all marketing communications are stopped, and you are prevented from creating a new account. six8s takes self-exclusion requests very seriously and processes them within one hour of receipt. Contact [email protected] to initiate.
06
Reality Check Alerts
Reality check alerts are periodic pop-up notifications that appear during active play, showing you a summary of your current session — how long you have been playing, your net win or loss, and the total amount wagered. These prompts are designed to break the immersive flow of gambling and encourage you to make a conscious, informed decision about whether to continue. You can set the frequency from every 15 minutes to every 2 hours.
Know the Warning Signs

Recognising Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone — regardless of age, income, or background. It often develops gradually, which makes it difficult to recognise. The following are common warning signs that gambling may be becoming a problem. If you identify with three or more of these, we strongly encourage you to use our self-exclusion tool or contact our support team for guidance.

  • Spending more money on gambling than you originally planned or can afford.
  • Chasing losses — placing additional bets to try to win back money you have already lost.
  • Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when you are not gambling or when you try to stop.
  • Lying to family members or friends about the extent of your gambling activity.
  • Neglecting work, studies, family responsibilities, or personal health due to time spent gambling.
  • Borrowing money, selling possessions, or using emergency funds to finance gambling.
  • Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, depression, or personal problems rather than for entertainment.
  • Repeatedly failing to keep promises to yourself or others about cutting down or stopping gambling.
  • Thinking about gambling constantly — planning your next session, calculating odds, or reliving past wins.
Healthy Play Habits

Tips for Staying in Control

The vast majority of six8s players enjoy gambling as a form of entertainment with no lasting negative effects. The following habits will help you keep it that way — ensuring every session remains fun, affordable, and stress-free.

  • Set a fixed gambling budget before you start and stick to it strictly, regardless of whether you are winning or losing.
  • Treat any money you deposit as entertainment spending — just like a cinema ticket or a restaurant meal. Never gamble with rent, utility, or grocery money.
  • Use our session time limits to cap each gambling session at a comfortable duration — 30 to 60 minutes is a healthy benchmark for most players.
  • Take regular breaks. Step away from the screen, hydrate, and do something unrelated to gambling between sessions.
  • Never gamble when you are drunk, emotionally distressed, or under significant financial pressure. Clear-headed decisions are better decisions.
  • Keep gambling as one of many leisure activities in your life — not the only one. Maintain a balance with hobbies, socialising, and physical activity.
  • Regularly review your gaming history in your six8s account dashboard. Awareness of your actual spending is one of the most effective forms of self-regulation.
  • Talk openly with someone you trust if you are worried about your gambling. Sharing concerns is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Remember: the house always has a mathematical edge over time. Gambling should never be viewed as a reliable source of income. A string of wins does not change the long-term odds, and past results never guarantee future outcomes.
Age Verification Policy

Strictly 21+ Only

six8s operates a strict minimum age policy. No person under the age of 21 is permitted to register an account, deposit funds, or participate in any betting or gaming activity on the platform. This policy applies without exception across all of Bangladesh, including Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, Barisal, Rangpur, Mymensingh, and Cox's Bazar.

During the registration process, all new players are required to submit government-issued identity documents — such as a Bangladesh National ID card, passport, or driving licence — to verify their age and identity. Accounts that cannot provide satisfactory age verification within the required timeframe will be suspended until the verification is complete.

If you suspect that a minor is accessing the six8s platform, please report it to us immediately at [email protected]. We will investigate and act within 24 hours.

We also recommend that adults with children or younger family members in their household use parental control software to prevent underage access to gambling websites. Tools such as Gamban, Net Nanny, and similar applications can block access to gambling sites at the device or network level.

ID Verification

National ID, passport, or driving licence required for all new accounts before any withdrawal is processed.

Underage Block

Any account found to belong to a player under 21 is permanently closed and all funds returned to the verified payment source.

Parental Controls

We recommend installing parental control software on shared devices to prevent underage access to gambling platforms.

Ongoing Monitoring

Our compliance team continuously monitors accounts for age verification compliance and irregularities.

Our Responsible Gaming Principles

Every decision six8s makes about platform design, promotions, and player communications is guided by six core responsible gaming principles.

Player Protection First

Player welfare takes priority over revenue. Every responsible gaming tool on six8s is available free of charge, requires no waiting period to activate, and can be initiated at any hour of the day or night — including during major live events like BPL finals and ICC tournaments.

Honest Marketing

six8s does not use manipulative or misleading promotions. All bonus terms and wagering requirements are clearly stated. We do not send promotional messages to players who are on a time-out or who have self-excluded. Marketing campaigns always carry responsible gaming reminders and age restriction notices.

Transparent Odds & RTP

We provide clear information about return-to-player (RTP) percentages for slot games and the mathematical edge built into casino and sports betting products. Players who understand the odds are better equipped to set realistic expectations and manage their bankrolls responsibly.

Proactive Intervention

Our platform uses automated behavioural analysis to identify accounts showing patterns consistent with problem gambling — such as rapidly increasing bet sizes, frequent late-night sessions, or repeated deposit-and-loss cycles. When these patterns are detected, our responsible gaming team proactively contacts the player with support resources and tool recommendations.

Trained Support Staff

Every member of the six8s customer support team completes responsible gaming training before handling player interactions. Our agents are equipped to recognise distress signals in player communications, offer appropriate tools, and direct players to professional counselling services where needed — without judgment and with full confidentiality.

Ongoing Education

six8s regularly publishes guidance on responsible gambling practices through our platform communications. We believe that an informed player is a protected player. From explaining how random number generators work to outlining the psychology of near-miss events in slot games, we give our community the knowledge they need to play safely and enjoyably.

External Resources

Additional Help & Resources

If you feel that you or someone close to you needs support beyond what six8s can provide directly, the following types of professional resources are available. We encourage anyone struggling with gambling-related harm to seek independent support in addition to using our in-platform tools.

National Mental Health Helplines

Bangladesh has a growing network of mental health support services. Kaan Pete Roi is a volunteer-run emotional support service operating across Bangladesh that provides confidential conversations for individuals experiencing emotional distress, including gambling-related anxiety and stress.

Gamblers Anonymous

Gamblers Anonymous (GA) is a free, peer-support fellowship programme for people who have a gambling problem. GA meetings follow a twelve-step model similar to Alcoholics Anonymous and are attended by individuals who share their experiences and support each other's recovery. Meetings are available online, making them accessible to players across all of Bangladesh.

Professional Counselling

Licensed counsellors and psychologists who specialise in behavioural addictions can provide one-on-one therapeutic support for problem gambling. We recommend seeking a professional who specialises in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), which has strong clinical evidence as an effective treatment for gambling disorders.
