The Core Principles of Responsible Gaming
Six core principles are followed to ensure safe betting at 80bd
80bd strictly prevents account registration for anyone under 18. Age is verified at sign-up, and NID verification is required before the first withdrawal. If a minor is identified, the account is closed immediately.
Every member can set their own Deposit Limit, Betting Limit, and Session Time Limit. These can be activated at any time from Account Settings and take effect immediately once set.
At set intervals, 80bd automatically reminds you how long you've been playing and how many bets you've placed. These notifications help you stay aware and avoid excessive play.
If you need to clear your head, take a Cool-Off period of 24 hours to 30 days. Betting and deposits are paused during this time, but your account remains open. Use this after a big loss or whenever things feel out of control.
You can lock your account for anywhere between 7 days and 6 months. Once self-exclusion is active, the account cannot be reopened during that period — not even by contacting 80bd support. This is the highest level of protection available.
80bd's system continuously monitors betting patterns. If signs appear — such as sudden large deposit increases, late-night sessions, or repeated bets after losses — the support team proactively reaches out to offer help.
How to Use the Protection Tools
Every tool is free and can be activated at any time from your Account Settings
Deposit Limit
Set your own maximum deposit limit on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once a limit is in place, the system will automatically decline any deposit that exceeds it. Lowering your limit takes effect immediately, while increasing it requires a 72-hour waiting period — so impulsive decisions are kept in check.
Takes Effect ImmediatelySession Time Limit
Set a limit on how long you can play in one session — anywhere from 30 minutes to 12 hours. Once the time is up, your login session ends automatically. Use this tool to make sure family, work, or sleep never takes a back seat.
Auto LogoutReality Check
A popup appears every 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours, showing how long you have been playing and how many bets you have placed. It keeps you mindful of where you are at that moment. Whether you continue or stop after seeing it is entirely your choice.
Awareness RemindersCool-Off Period
Activating a Cool-Off Period pauses all betting and deposits for 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Your account balance remains intact, and access is restored automatically once the period ends. It is the simplest option after a big loss or when you just need some time away.
Automatically expires at the end of the periodSelf-Exclusion
Your account can be fully locked for 7 days, 1 month, 3 months, or 6 months — access is completely blocked for the entire duration. Once the period ends, a mandatory 24-hour cool-down applies before the account is reactivated.
Maximum ProtectionLoss Limit
Set a limit on the maximum amount you are comfortable losing on a daily or weekly basis. Once that limit is reached, betting will not be available for the rest of that day. This is an effective way to resist the urge to chase losses.
Preventing Chasing LossesCheck Yourself
Betting problems do not always appear overnight. Habits shift gradually in ways that can be hard to notice yourself. Ask yourself the questions below — if you answer "Yes" to more than three, please speak with 80bd's support team.
The first step in responsible gaming is being honest with yourself. The checklist below is not here to judge you — treat it as a mirror. The 80bd support team never judges; they only help.

Recognizing the Warning Signs
Knowing the warning signs of a betting problem allows you — or someone close to you — to take action early. 80bd wants every member to stay informed about these signs.
Exceeding Your Budget
Your finances do not add up at the end of the month because more is going toward betting than you budgeted for.
Losing Track of Time
You sat down to play for an hour and realized five hours had passed.
Mood Swings
Extreme excitement after a win, deep distress after a loss — both going well beyond a normal emotional range.
Social Distancing
You are spending less time with family, and friends are telling you that you have changed.
Chasing Losses
The tendency to place larger bets in an attempt to recover money lost.
Cutting Essential Expenses
Betting with money that should be going toward food, medication, or bills.

Responsible Betting – Our Commitment
80bd believes a healthy member is good for 80bd in the long run. Members who play for fun, stick to their budget, and enjoy cricket or football tend to stay with 80bd year after year.
For a member heading toward addiction, betting stops being a source of enjoyment and becomes a source of pain. That is not what 80bd wants. This is why we actively promote our responsible gaming tools — not just as words on paper, but in practice.
80bd's Responsible Gaming Commitment
We commit to this: no member will ever be discouraged from using our protection tools. Members who have self-excluded will not receive any bonus offers during that period. When someone is in crisis, our support team will be there to help — not for business reasons, but out of genuine human responsibility.

Betting Is Entertainment, Not a Business
There's one thing worth keeping in mind when betting at 80bd — over the long run, the house always holds an edge on any casino or betting platform. That doesn't mean you can't win, but it does mean betting should never be seen as a reliable source of income.
Betting on a Bangladesh cricket match, playing a few rounds of Dragon Tiger, or backing your favorite team in the BPL — these can all be part of the fun. But the moment betting stops being enjoyment and becomes an obligation, recognizing that shift is the very first step in responsible gaming.
80bd's Responsible Gaming team members are trained to recognize the signs of problem betting and have sensitive, supportive conversations. If a member reaches out to say they're struggling, the necessary tools are activated right away and any promotional bonus offers are paused.
80bd's responsible gaming department operates independently from its commercial division. This means member protection decisions are never influenced by business pressures.
"One day I messaged support saying I felt like I was playing a bit too much. They immediately applied a one-week cool-off to my account, and no bonus offers came through the next day. That small gesture meant a lot."
