Betting is a form of entertainment — not a source of income. 8fb wants every member to enjoy the experience within healthy limits. Here you'll find all the protection tools and support resources available.
Every protection measure is designed with the member's wellbeing in mind.
Set your own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap. Once a limit is set, it cannot be increased before the designated period ends.
You can completely exclude yourself from the platform for a set period. Options range from 30 days up to 5 years.
Take a temporary break of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Clear your head, then make your decision.
Set a maximum stake amount before you start — it's the best way to avoid placing larger bets in the heat of the moment.
Automatic reminders are sent at set intervals — showing how long you've been playing and how much you've spent. A simple way to stay aware.
Age is verified at both registration and KYC stages. 8fb is strictly off-limits for minors.
Online betting is growing in popularity across Bangladesh. There's no denying that placing a bet on a cricket match adds an extra layer of excitement — but like any form of entertainment, there's a healthy limit. Stay within that limit and betting stays fun; go beyond it and problems can start to develop.
For 8fb, responsible gaming isn't just a list of rules — it's a culture. We want every member to experience betting as an enjoyable part of life, not a burden. To that end, we've built a comprehensive framework combining technical protection tools, educational resources, and human support.
Most people bet responsibly and never run into any issues. However, in certain situations, betting can gradually become a problem. This is not a sign of weakness — it's a health concern, and there is help available.
Research shows that gambling or betting problems tend to develop when people repeatedly place bets to chase lost money, or use betting as a way to cope with emotional distress. Recognizing these patterns early and seeking help promptly is the most important step you can take.
8fb's Responsible Gaming framework is built on three core pillars:
"Our business success depends on the long-term happiness of our members — not short-term revenue. A healthy, satisfied member is our greatest asset."
— The 8fb Responsible Gaming TeamSometimes, loved ones notice a problem before the person themselves does. If you feel that someone close to you is spending too much time or money on betting and it's having a negative impact on their life — talk to them openly and offer your support. 8fb's Support Team is also available to assist family members in these situations.
Minors are strictly prohibited from using 8fb under any circumstances. Date of birth is verified during registration, and age is confirmed again through national ID during KYC. If there are children or teenagers in your household, password-protect your personal device and never share your login credentials.
All these tools on 8fb are completely free and available to use at any time.
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap directly from your account settings. Reductions take effect immediately. However, increasing a limit requires a 72-hour cooling period — this is intentional, to prevent impulsive deposits made in the moment.
Feeling wound up or just need a short break? Activate a cooling-off period. While it's active, you won't be able to log in, deposit, or place bets. Once the period ends, your account will reactivate automatically.
If you need a longer break, self-exclusion is the most effective step. Options range from a minimum of 30 days to a permanent account closure. No promotional messages will be sent during the exclusion period.
A pop-up appears every 30, 60, or 90 minutes showing how long you've been playing and how much you've won or lost. This small reminder can often help you make the right call.
| Limit Type | Minimum | Maximum | Time to Take Effect | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Daily Limit | ৳500 | Unlimited | Immediately | Active |
| Weekly Limit | ৳2,000 | Unlimited | Immediately | Active |
| Monthly Limit | ৳5,000 | Unlimited | Immediately | Active |
| Limit Increase | A 72-hour cooling-off period is mandatory | After 72 Hours | Controlled | |

Some practical tips learned from experienced bettors.
Keep a separate budget set aside for betting — an amount you can afford to lose without it affecting your day-to-day life.
Decide how long you'll play before you sit down. Keep the reality check on — when the time's up, step away.
If your team loses or you hit a losing streak, don't chase it with bigger bets. Take a breath and make decisions with a clear head.
There are no guaranteed wins in betting. Analyze the odds, but always keep in mind that any outcome is possible.
Betting when you're tired or late at night leads to poor decisions — try to put the phone down before you sleep.
Take at least one full day off from betting each week. Spend that time on other hobbies and with the people around you.
Start by setting up your safety tools. Deposit via bKash, get support in Bangla, and bet responsibly on Bangladesh's most familiar platform.
