🛡️ Player Protection

Responsible Gaming
at hibaji

Gambling is entertainment — and hibaji is committed to keeping it that way. This page explains the tools, policies, and support resources available to every hibaji player in Bangladesh to help you stay in control, play within your means, and seek help if you ever need it.

18+ Only. The hibaji platform is strictly for adults aged 18 and above. If gambling is causing distress in your life, please contact our support team immediately at [email protected] — we are available around the clock and will prioritise your request.

Gaming Should Always
Be Entertainment

At hibaji, we believe that online betting and casino gaming are legitimate forms of entertainment for adults who choose to participate. The vast majority of hibaji players enjoy their experience responsibly — they set budgets, play for fun, and treat any winnings as a bonus rather than an expectation. We want to make sure every hibaji player has the same positive relationship with gambling.

Responsible gaming is not a legal footnote at hibaji — it is built into the platform. Every registered hibaji account comes with a full set of free, immediately accessible tools designed to help you manage your play. These include deposit limits, loss limits, session time reminders, cooling-off periods, and full self-exclusion. You do not need to contact support to activate most of these tools; they are available directly within your account settings.

We also recognise that for a small number of people, gambling can become a problem that goes beyond entertainment. Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of income, background, or how long they have been playing. If you recognise warning signs in your own behaviour — or in someone close to you — the hibaji responsible gaming team is here to help without judgement. This page explains exactly what support is available and how to access it.

hibaji takes a proactive approach to player protection. Our systems monitor account activity for patterns that may indicate problematic behaviour — such as rapid increases in deposit frequency, extended session durations, or repeated attempts to reverse a withdrawal. Where such patterns are detected, our responsible gaming team may reach out proactively to check in and remind you of the tools available.

Remember: Gambling should never be used as a way to recover financial losses, relieve stress, or escape personal problems. If you find yourself gambling for these reasons, please review the warning signs section below and consider using hibaji's self-exclusion tool while you seek additional support.

Healthy Gaming Checklist

I treat gambling as entertainment, not as a source of income.
I only gamble with money I can afford to lose without affecting my household budget.
I set a time and money limit before I start each session and stop when I reach it.
I never chase losses by placing larger bets to try to win back money I have lost.
I take regular breaks and do not let gambling interfere with work, family, or social commitments.
I am 18 years of age or older and gambling is legal in my jurisdiction.
I do not gamble when I am feeling upset, stressed, or under the influence of alcohol.

18+ Age Restriction

hibaji strictly prohibits the use of its platform by anyone under the age of 18. This is not simply a policy requirement — it reflects hibaji's genuine commitment to the protection of young people. Gambling can have serious psychological and financial consequences, and minors are particularly vulnerable to these harms.

Every hibaji registration requires submission of identity verification documents as part of the Know Your Customer (KYC) process. Age is verified against your National Identity Card (NID) or passport before your account is fully activated. Where there is any doubt about a player's age, hibaji reserves the right to suspend account activity and request additional documentation before allowing further play or withdrawals.

If you are a parent or guardian and you believe a minor may have accessed the hibaji platform, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. We will investigate and take appropriate action, including account closure and return of any deposited funds where applicable, without delay.

18+ Only — No Exceptions

Protecting Minors at Home

1
Use Device-Level Controls

Enable parental control software on shared devices to block access to gambling websites. Many internet service providers offer free parental control tools — check with your ISP in Bangladesh.

2
Keep Account Credentials Private

Never share your hibaji username or password with anyone, including family members. Log out of your hibaji account after every session on shared devices.

3
Talk Openly About Gambling

Have age-appropriate conversations with young people about the nature of gambling, the risks involved, and the importance of waiting until adulthood before participating.

4
Report Suspected Underage Access

If you suspect a minor has accessed hibaji, report it to our support team immediately. We will act swiftly and confidentially.

Your Control Tools

All of the following tools are free, available immediately through your hibaji account settings, and can be activated without contacting customer support. There is no waiting period to enable these protections.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum amount you are permitted to deposit within a defined time window — daily, weekly, or monthly. Once your limit is reached, hibaji will prevent further deposits until the period resets. Deposit limits take effect immediately when set and can only be decreased immediately; increases require a 24-hour cooling period before taking effect.

Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Deposit Limits

Loss Limits

Cap the total amount you can lose within a daily, weekly, or monthly period. When your net loss reaches the limit you have set, hibaji will restrict further betting and casino play until the period resets. Like deposit limits, reductions apply instantly while increases are subject to a mandatory 24-hour review delay.

Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Loss Limits

Session Time Limits

Define how long a single gaming session can last before hibaji prompts you to take a break. When your session limit is reached, hibaji will display a reminder and, if you choose, automatically log you out. Session reminders appear at intervals throughout your session as well as when the limit is reached.

Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Session Limits

Cooling-Off Period

Take a short break from hibaji without committing to full self-exclusion. Cooling-off periods can be set for 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time your account remains open but deposits and betting are suspended. The cooling-off period cannot be cancelled early once activated.

Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Take a Break

Self-Exclusion

If you feel that you need a longer break from gambling, hibaji offers self-exclusion periods of 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or permanent exclusion. Self-exclusion is processed within 24 hours of your request. Once active, it cannot be reversed before the chosen period expires — this is intentional, to provide a genuine protective barrier.

Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Self-Exclusion

Marketing Opt-Out

If promotional messages — bonus offers, tournament invitations, or special event notifications — are making it harder for you to maintain control of your gambling, you can opt out of all marketing communications instantly. This does not affect essential account communications such as deposit confirmations and security alerts.

Account Settings → Notifications → Marketing Preferences

Warning Signs of
Problem Gambling

Problem gambling does not always look the same. It can develop gradually over months or years, and many people do not recognise it until it has already had a significant impact on their finances, relationships, and mental wellbeing. The following warning signs are worth being aware of — both for your own behaviour and for people close to you.

Spending more money on gambling than you originally planned, and feeling unable to stop even when you intend to.

Chasing losses — placing additional bets specifically to try to recover money that you have already lost in a session.

Lying to family members, friends, or colleagues about how much time or money you spend on gambling.

Borrowing money, selling possessions, or neglecting essential bills in order to fund gambling activity.

Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when you are not gambling, or when you try to reduce the amount you gamble.

Using gambling as a way to escape stress, depression, anxiety, or personal problems rather than as entertainment.

Neglecting responsibilities at work, school, or home because of time spent gambling or thinking about gambling.

1

hibaji's Core Commitments to Players

These are the foundational principles that guide how hibaji approaches player protection across every part of the platform.

Verified Adults Only

Every hibaji account is verified against a government-issued identity document before full activation. Age verification is mandatory, not optional — there is no way to access deposits, betting, or withdrawals without completing the process.

Free Protective Tools

Every responsible gaming tool on hibaji — from deposit limits to full self-exclusion — is provided free of charge and available instantly. hibaji will never charge a player for protecting themselves, and will never make it unnecessarily difficult to activate these tools.

Proactive Monitoring

hibaji's systems actively monitor player behaviour for patterns associated with problem gambling. Where concerning patterns are identified, the responsible gaming team may proactively contact the player to discuss the tools available — without waiting for a player to ask for help.

Irreversible Protections

Certain protections — most notably self-exclusion and cooling-off periods — are intentionally irreversible for their set duration. This design choice is deliberate: a protective barrier that can be instantly reversed provides little meaningful protection during a moment of vulnerability.

Judgement-Free Support

hibaji's support team approaches all responsible gaming enquiries with empathy, confidentiality, and zero judgement. Whether you are setting a small deposit limit as a precaution or requesting immediate self-exclusion, you will receive the same professional, caring response.

Transparent Account History

Every hibaji account includes a full, downloadable history of all deposits, withdrawals, bets placed, and gaming sessions. Reviewing this history regularly is one of the most effective ways to maintain an honest, clear picture of your gambling activity over time.

Responsible Gaming FAQs

Log in to your hibaji account and navigate to Account Settings, then select the Responsible Gaming section. Choose "Deposit Limits" and set your preferred daily, weekly, or monthly cap. Reductions take effect immediately. If you wish to increase an existing limit, a mandatory 24-hour waiting period applies before the change becomes active.

No. Self-exclusion at hibaji is intentionally irreversible for the duration you select. Once activated, your account will remain suspended for the full period chosen — whether that is 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. This design provides a genuine barrier during periods of vulnerability. If you selected permanent exclusion, your account will not be reopened under any circumstances.

Your account balance is preserved during a self-exclusion period. Any remaining withdrawable funds can be requested via the hibaji support team at [email protected]. Withdrawals of your balance during self-exclusion will be processed to your registered payment method (bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or bank account) within standard processing times. Active bonuses will be forfeited upon self-exclusion.

Yes. hibaji requires all players to be 18 years of age or older, and age verification is mandatory before any account can be fully activated. Players must submit a government-issued identity document — such as a National Identity Card or passport — as part of the KYC process. Any account found to belong to a person under 18 will be closed immediately and any deposited funds returned.

Email the hibaji responsible gaming team at [email protected] with the subject line "Responsible Gaming Request". Our team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and will respond to all responsible gaming queries within 1 hour for urgent cases and within 24 hours for standard enquiries. All communications are treated with complete confidentiality.
