Safe and Responsible Gaming

8h177 Responsible Play —
Keep the fun, keep the control

8h177 believes gaming should be pure entertainment. That is why we ensure a safe environment, limit-setting features and access to support for every one of our players.

Gaming is for entertainment — not addiction

Responsible play on the 8h177 platform is one of our highest priorities. When online gaming moves away from enjoyment and becomes a source of stress or financial hardship, it is no longer entertainment. We want every one of our players to stay safe, stay informed and play within their own limits.

Responsible play means having full control over when you play, how long you play and how much money you spend. At 8h177 we keep that control in your hands through a range of tools and support services.

On this page you can find out how to set deposit limits, how self-exclusion works, when to take a time-out or cooling-off period, and where to reach out if problems arise.

Keep in mind
  • Gaming is for entertainment only, not a source of income
  • Only play with money you can afford to lose
  • Avoid playing when you are stressed or feeling low
  • Do not chase losses by placing bigger bets to win back money
  • For players aged 21 and above only

Our Responsible Gaming Tools

8h177 provides its players with a number of effective tools that let you keep full control of your gaming experience. Learn about these features for responsible play.

Deposit Limit

You can set a limit on how much money you deposit each day, each week or each month. Once this limit is set it takes effect immediately, but if you want to increase it you will need to wait a cooling-off period. Minimum deposit starts from ৳200.

Session Time Limit

Set a time limit for how long your gaming session runs. When the time is up, the system will alert you. Playing for long periods can lead to fatigue and poor decisions — so it is a good idea to take a break at regular intervals.

Time-Out

If you feel you need a break for a few days, you can temporarily close your account for a set period. This period can range from 24 hours to several weeks. You will not be able to log in during the break.

Self-Exclusion

If gaming has become a serious problem, you can choose the long-term self-exclusion option. Once activated, it will not be possible to reactivate the account before the set period ends. Contact us via live chat for support.

Reality Check

A reminder pop-up will appear at regular set intervals — showing a summary of how long you have been playing and how much you have won or lost in that session. This reality check helps you keep your feet on the ground while you play.

Transaction and Gaming History

You can review the complete history of every deposit, withdrawal and gaming activity on your account. Understanding your own patterns is the first step in responsible play. Minimum withdrawal is ৳500, processing time is 30 minutes to 3 hours.

Warning Signs of Problematic Gaming

If any of the signs below appear in you or someone you know, action should be taken without delay. Responsible play means being able to recognise these signals.

  • Spending more than your budget and feeling regret afterwards
  • Placing bigger bets to try to win back lost money
  • Hiding your gaming from family or friends
  • Feeling restless or anxious when you cannot game
  • Neglecting work, studies or family responsibilities
  • Continuing to game by taking on debt or spending savings
  • Trying to stop gaming but being unable to

Assess Yourself

Ask yourself the questions below. Answer honestly — this is for your own benefit.

Am I spending more on gaming than my set budget?
Do I feel anxious or irritable when I am not gaming?
After losing, do I place bigger bets to try to get that money back?
Is gaming harming my family life, work or health?
Have I ever lied to continue gaming?

If the answer to any of the above questions is "yes", do not wait — contact our live chat or take a temporary break.

Core Principles of Safe Gaming

Set a budget and stick to it

Decide how much money you are willing to spend before you start gaming. Stay within that limit.

Set a time limit

Decide in advance how long you will play each day. Avoid playing for long stretches without a break.

Keep your emotions in check

Do not play when you are angry, sad or stressed. Play with a calm and relaxed mindset.

Take breaks

Taking regular breaks helps keep a clear head and prevents excessive gaming.

Do not hesitate to ask for help

If you feel something is wrong, our support team is always here for you. Asking for help is a sign of strength.

Frequently Asked Questions

After logging in to your account, go to the Account Settings section and look for the "Responsible Gaming" option. From there you can set a daily, weekly or monthly deposit limit. Lowering the limit takes effect immediately, but if you want to increase it you will need to wait a set cooling-off period. Contact us via live chat for help.

No, activating self-exclusion keeps your account balance completely safe. Once the exclusion period ends you will be able to withdraw normally. However, during this period you will not be able to play games or make deposits.

A time-out is a short-term break — usually from a few hours to a few weeks. It is suitable for a small break. Self-exclusion is a longer-term step, taken when gaming seems to have become a serious problem. With a time-out, your account is reactivated automatically after the set period, but if self-exclusion is active you will need to contact the support team to reactivate your account.

When opening an account at 8h177, your date of birth and identity verification details are required. We make sure that no person under the age of 21 can access the platform. If any age-related discrepancy is found on an account, it is closed immediately.

First, speak to them with empathy and help them acknowledge the problem. You can inform our support team about the family member's account — we will take appropriate action. Seeking professional mental health care and counselling is also highly effective. Do not face it alone — get professional help.
