How do I set responsible gaming limits?

Log in to your Olxoto account and go to the Settings section to set daily, weekly, and monthly deposit and betting limits. Limit reductions take effect immediately, while increases may take 24–72 hours to apply.

Is Self-Exclusion Free?

Yes, completely free. Request self-exclusion via Olxoto's live chat or email and it will be activated instantly, no questions asked.

What should I do if someone I know may have a gaming addiction?

Start by talking to them with empathy — help them acknowledge the issue without judgment. If needed, contact Olxoto support; we also assist family members.

What Happens to My Balance During Self-Exclusion?

Your balance is fully protected during self-exclusion. Once the break period ends, you can reactivate your account and withdraw your balance.

Can anyone under 18 play on Olxoto?

No, not under any circumstances. Olxoto verifies age at registration. If a user is identified as a minor, their account is closed immediately and no transactions are permitted.

Is gaming a reliable source of income?

No. Gaming is for entertainment, not income. Sustained earnings from casino or betting play are not realistically achievable over the long term. Always treat gaming as part of your entertainment budget.

What does responsible gaming mean?

Responsible gaming means treating gaming as a source of enjoyment — not as a solution to life's problems or a way to earn money. Olxoto believes gaming is at its best when it is controlled, mindful, and entertaining. The health and peace of mind of every player is our highest priority.

Online gaming is growing fast in Bangladesh. Many play for entertainment, others for the thrill. But a small number find themselves unknowingly spending too much time and money. Building responsible gaming habits can keep these problems at bay.

Olxoto's responsible gaming policy is built to international standards. We want every player to enjoy themselves without coming to harm. The sections below explain how to play responsibly, recognize warning signs, and get help when you need it.

Remember: Gaming is never a reliable source of income. Never wager more than you can afford to lose.

Recognize the Warning Signs

Gaming addiction does not always appear overnight. Habits can shift gradually over time. Be alert if you notice any of the following signs in yourself:

Psychological Signs

Feeling restless or irritable when not playing
Lying or being secretive about gaming
Chasing Losses
Unable to enjoy activities outside of gaming
Withdrawing from Family or Friends

Behavioral Signs

Spending Beyond Your Budget
Neglecting work or studies
Cutting back on sleep to keep playing
Unable to stop playing
Gambling with borrowed money

Important: If you notice three or more of the signs above, do not wait — reach out to Olxoto Support or seek professional help. The earlier you recognize the problem, the easier it is to address.

Set Limits — On Your Own Terms

At Olxoto, you are in full control of your own gaming limits. It is the most effective way to play responsibly. Any limit you set takes effect immediately.

Daily Limit

Set a daily limit on how much BDT you spend

Weekly Limit

Set a total weekly budget

Monthly Limit

Set a monthly budget to avoid unnecessary spending

Increasing and decreasing limits follow different rules. Decreasing a limit takes effect immediately, while increasing one takes 24 to 72 hours — this is designed to prevent impulsive increases that could lead to overspending.

Tip: Set your limits before you start playing. Setting limits is not a sign of weakness — it is the smart thing to do.

Check Yourself

Ask yourself the questions below. If you answer yes to most of them, it may be time to seek professional support.

Responsible Gaming Self-Assessment

01Do you spend more time gaming than you planned?

02Do you find it hard to stop gaming when you want to?

03When you lose, do you chase losses by placing bigger bets to try to win the money back?

04Have your family or friends expressed concern about your gaming?

05Has gaming negatively affected your work, studies, or relationships?

06Does daily life feel dull or empty without gaming?

07Have you lied to family or friends about your gaming?

08Have you borrowed money or used household funds to gamble?

Result: If you answered "Yes" to 3 or more questions, contact Olxoto support or activate self-exclusion.

Self-Exclusion — Take a Break on Your Own Terms

Sometimes the smartest move is to step away. Olxoto's self-exclusion feature lets you deactivate your account for a set period of time.

1

Contact Olxoto Support

Request self-exclusion via live chat or email. No explanation required.

2

Select Duration

1 week, 1 month, 6 months, or permanent — choose the break duration that works for you.

3

Your account will be closed immediately

Your account is deactivated as soon as the request is made. You will not be able to log in during this period.

4

Reactivation After the Period Ends

After a scheduled break, you can reactivate your account by contacting support.

Good to know: No promotional messages will be sent during self-exclusion. Your balance remains secure and can be withdrawn after the break.

Family Protection

Online gaming can be accessible to younger members of the household. Olxoto takes this seriously and has dedicated protection measures in place for parents and guardians.

Age verification is mandatory at registration — no one under 18 is permitted.
Keep your device password-locked so younger family members cannot access your account.
If someone in your family uses your account without permission, notify support immediately.
You can restrict access to gaming sites on your device using parental control software.
If a family member suspects a problem, they can contact Olxoto support directly.

For parents and guardians: Monitor your child's online activity regularly. Have open conversations about gaming — awareness is the best protection.

10 Golden Tips for Safe Gaming

Set a budget before you start playing and stick to it.
Accept losses when they happen — don't keep playing in an attempt to win back what you've lost.
See gaming as a form of entertainment, not a source of income.
Take regular breaks — step away for a few minutes every hour.
Do not play while drinking or under mental stress.

Keep up the habit of spending time with family and friends.
Maintain a regular sleep and eating schedule — do not let gaming disrupt your daily routine.
Review your gaming history regularly.
If something feels wrong, contact support right away.
Invest time in other hobbies and activities — gaming should not be your only source of entertainment.
