Gaming should be enjoyable — never stressful or worrying. Responsible gaming is part of our culture at s98. Know your limits, use the right tools, and stay well.
At s98, we believe gaming is a form of entertainment — much like watching a movie or catching up with friends. But like any entertainment, it comes with limits. Responsible gaming means getting the most enjoyment out of it while staying within those limits.
Online gaming is growing fast in Bangladesh. Millions of people visit s98 every day for fun and excitement. But sometimes, without realizing it, gaming habits can start to get out of hand. That's exactly where s98's responsible gaming policy steps in.
We want every member to play with a healthy mindset. Stay level-headed through wins and losses. Enjoy gaming without exceeding your budget. Keep a balance between gaming and your family, work, and social life. That's responsible gaming — and that's s98's promise.
At s98, responsible gaming goes beyond policy statements. We've built practical tools and features that put you in control of your own gaming habits — from deposit limits to full self-exclusion, everything is in your hands.
Let's be clear about one thing — gaming is never a source of income. Expecting regular earnings from slots or betting is simply not realistic. Gaming is entertainment, and you should only wager what you're genuinely comfortable spending on entertainment.
If you ever feel that gaming is affecting your life — losing sleep, missing time with family, or feeling financial pressure — that's a sign. Use s98's tools or reach out to our support team. We don't judge; we help.
People from all across Bangladesh use s98 — from cities to small towns, young and middle-aged alike. Responsible gaming guidelines apply equally to everyone, because staying healthy matters for all of us.
Remember — s98 is always here for you. In good times and in tough ones. Responsible gaming isn't just a policy; it's our commitment to you.
s98's Core Principles: Gaming is meant to be fun. If it stops feeling that way, take a break. s98 is always here to help.
Six core principles that keep your gaming experience safe
Set your own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit and betting limits. When you reach your limit, s98 automatically alerts you — it's your personal safety net.
Need a short break? Use the Cooling-Off feature. You can temporarily suspend your account for a set period — from 24 hours up to 30 days.
Choose Self-Exclusion for a longer break. Options range from 6 months to permanent exclusion. Once you decide, s98 will honour it without question.
Decide in advance how long you'll play each session. When your time is up, s98 will send you a reminder — making it easy to keep track.
Review your gaming history. Time spent playing, bets placed, wins and losses — all the details are right there in your account.
Whatever the issue, whenever you need us, the s98 support team is here. If you're worried about your gaming, don't hesitate to reach out — we're ready to help.
How to use each tool — quick guide
Go to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Deposit Limit and set your limit. Reducing your daily limit takes effect immediately, while increasing it takes 24 hours to apply — this is by design, for your protection.
Go to Account Settings → select Cooling-Off Period. Choose from 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, or 1 month. You will not be able to log in during this period — however, withdrawals will still be permitted.
Request self-exclusion through the support chat or your account settings. Options include 6 months, 1 year, or permanent. Once active, it cannot be reversed before the period ends.
Set reminders to take regular gaming breaks. When a reminder appears, it shows how long you've been playing and your current win/loss balance — helping you stay grounded in reality.
