Is gaming affecting your life?

99 apps believes entertainment should be a positive part of life, not a source of problems. If you feel that gaming is negatively affecting your family, work, or finances, it's important to take action right away. Our platform offers several built-in self-control tools to help you stay in charge. Remember, asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.

How Do You Set Time and Budget Limits?

With the right plan in place, entertainment stays enjoyable. Follow these simple steps.

1

Set a Monthly Entertainment Budget

At the start of each month, decide the maximum amount you're comfortable spending on entertainment. This budget should only come from money you can afford to lose — funds that won't affect your daily life if they're gone. After covering essentials like rent, food, and your children's education, set aside only a small portion of what's left. Once you've set your budget, stick to it strictly and review it at the end of each month.

2

Set a Daily Time Limit

Decide in advance how long you'll game each day and set an alarm or timer. Playing for long stretches without a break builds mental fatigue and weakens your decision-making. Take at least a five-to-ten minute break every hour — get up, walk around, or have a glass of water. Avoid screens for at least an hour before bed to protect the quality of your sleep.

3

Set a win goal and a loss limit

Before you start playing, decide in advance — how much you need to win before you stop, and how much you're willing to lose before you call it a day. Holding to these two limits protects you from chasing losses with your emotions. The urge to place bigger bets to "recover" after a losing streak is especially dangerous. Once you hit your loss limit, log out immediately and redirect your attention to something else.

4

Review Your Habits Regularly

Set aside time once a week to honestly assess how much space gaming is taking up in your life. Track your spending, keep a record of the time you put in, and ask a family member or close friend for their perspective. If you find yourself repeatedly going past your set limits, treat that as a warning sign. You can review your play history in your 99 apps account settings — it's a useful tool for self-reflection.

Which Tools Should You Use to Stay in Control?

99 apps offers several self-control features that you can activate on your own at any time.

Set a deposit limit

Go to your account settings and set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Once a limit is set, any change to it requires a 24-hour waiting period, which helps prevent impulsive decisions.

Taking a Break

When you feel like you need a break, temporarily suspend your account for a set period. Choose a cooling-off period anywhere from 24 hours to 30 days, and use that time to focus on other activities.

Self-Exclusion

Use the self-exclusion feature for a longer break. Once activated, your account will be fully suspended for the chosen period and no logins will be possible during that time. You can choose a duration anywhere from three months up to five years.

Session Time Limits

Set a cap on how long you can play in a single session. Once that time is up, you'll be logged out automatically and will need to complete a confirmation step to log back in. This helps prevent the habit of playing for far longer than you intended.

Loss Limits

Set a daily or weekly cap on how much you're willing to lose before you start. Once you reach that limit, the system will automatically close your session. This feature protects you from chasing losses and losing even more in the process.

Reality check reminders

You'll receive periodic pop-up notifications showing how long your current session has lasted and how much you've spent. These check-ins bring you back to reality and help you make more mindful decisions.

Who is responsible for keeping minors safe?

99 apps is firmly committed to protecting children and teenagers — a responsibility we share equally with parents and guardians.

Our age verification process

Users must be 18 or older to register on 99 apps. Age is verified at the time of registration using a national ID or other official government documents. Additional verification may be requested at any time for accounts that raise concerns. Account activity remains restricted until verification is complete. Any attempt to circumvent this policy will result in permanent account closure.

Guidance for Parents

Enable parental controls on your devices and keep your login credentials out of children's reach. If anyone in your household shows excessive curiosity about gambling or online betting, have an open and honest conversation with them. Regularly review children's internet browsing history and make sure age-appropriate entertainment alternatives are available.

How do you maintain a healthy balance between gaming and life?

Entertainment is part of a happy life, but so is giving attention to every other aspect of it.

Make time for family

Spending quality time with family is essential for good mental health. Make it a point to sit together, talk, and create happy moments with your loved ones at least once every day.

Physical activity

Regular exercise and physical activity do wonders for your mind, not just your body. Make walking, cycling, or any sport a part of your daily routine.

Learn New Skills

Invest your time in activities like reading, learning a new language, cooking, or pursuing the arts. These habits build your confidence and reduce your reliance on gaming.

Adequate sleep and rest

Late-night gaming disrupts your sleep routine and reduces your productivity the next day. Aim for seven to eight hours of uninterrupted sleep each night and switch off your screens before bed.

Don't Hesitate to Seek Professional Help

Sometimes it can be hard to manage things on your own. In those moments, reaching out to a mental health professional, counsellor, or support group is a completely normal and courageous decision. In Bangladesh, the National Mental Health Helpline (Kaan Pete Roi: 01779-554391) and free counselling services at various government hospitals are available. The 99 apps Help Center is also ready to guide you toward the right resources.
