On daka99 Responsible Gaming — Play Happy, Stay in Control

Online gaming and betting are a form of entertainment — much like going to the cinema or watching a cricket match. But like any leisure activity, they require moderation and self-control. Responsible gaming means enjoying yourself with the clear understanding that this is purely entertainment — not a source of income, not a way to relieve stress, and not a means to recover lost money.

At daka99, we believe every player's mental and financial wellbeing matters far more than our bottom line. We want you to log in and have fun — not stress. That's why we've built a robust responsible gaming framework to help you stay in control at all times.

Online gaming is growing rapidly in Bangladesh, and so is the need for awareness. daka99 is proud to be a responsible platform where player welfare is our highest priority.

Daka99 gives you a range of powerful tools to manage your own gaming experience. They're all easily accessible from your account settings:

• Deposit Limit: Decide in advance how much you can deposit each day, week, or month. Lowering a limit takes effect immediately; increasing one requires a 24-hour waiting period.
• Loss Limit: Your session will automatically end once you've lost a set amount.
• Session Time Limit: Set a time limit for your session. Once the time is up, you'll be logged out automatically.
• Cooling-Off Period: Take a break for 1 day to 6 weeks. Your account will be temporarily suspended during this period.
• Self-Exclusion: For extended breaks, you can close your account for anywhere between 6 months and 5 years.

Responsible gaming isn't just about setting limits — it's about building a healthy mindset. Here are some tips to help you enjoy gaming every time:

• Set a budget before you start playing, and be mentally prepared to lose it.
• Never chase your losses by placing bigger bets — it only leads to greater harm.
• Never game while drinking or when you're in an unsettled state of mind.
• Don't think of gaming as a source of income — it's a form of entertainment, nothing more.
• Spend time with family and friends — don't let gaming pull you away from the people who matter.
• Take regular breaks. Playing for long stretches without a pause isn't healthy.
• Review your gaming spending every month.

Sometimes a family member or friend can fall into problematic gambling behaviour without even realising it themselves. If you're concerned about someone, watch out for these signs:

• Taking on debt to play, or hiding money from family.
• Neglecting work, family, or social responsibilities.
• Lying or being secretive about your gaming.
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or low after a loss.

Approach the situation directly. Be empathetic rather than critical or angry, stand by their side, and encourage them to seek professional help. You're also welcome to contact us — we support families too.
