Betting at bet games is meant to be fun — whether you are following PSL cricket, backing your favourite T20 team or trying your luck in the live casino. But we know that for some players, things can get out of hand. This page explains how we help you stay in control and what tools are available to you right now.
Bet games is committed to keeping betting enjoyable, fair and within limits that work for you.

Responsible gaming means keeping your betting activity within limits that you are genuinely comfortable with — in terms of both money and time. It means treating betting as a form of entertainment, the same way you might enjoy watching a PSL match or playing a casual mobile game, rather than as a way to make income or recover losses.
At bet games, we want every player in Pakistan to have a genuinely enjoyable experience. Cricket season brings real excitement — PSL finals, T20 internationals, big rivalry matches — and it is natural to want to add a bit of extra edge with a bet. That is perfectly fine. The problems tend to start when betting stops being fun and starts feeling compulsive or stressful.
This page is here to help you spot the early signs, understand the tools available to you and take action before things get out of hand. All the tools listed here are completely free to use and are built directly into your bet games account.
Betting should always be fun. If at any point it stops feeling that way — if you are betting with money you cannot afford to lose, or chasing losses, or feeling anxious when you are not betting — it is time to use the tools on this page or speak to our support team.
Set a daily, weekly or monthly PKR deposit limit on your bet games account. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. You can lower your limit at any time, instantly.
Need a short break from betting? Activate a time-out from 24 hours up to several weeks. During a time-out your account is paused — you will not be able to place bets or make deposits but your balance stays safe.
If you feel betting has become a genuine problem, you can request a longer self-exclusion of 6 months or more. During this period your account is fully suspended and you will be excluded from promotional communications.
Set a maximum PKR amount you are willing to lose in a given period. Once that threshold is reached, betting activity is automatically paused so you cannot keep chasing losses in the heat of the moment.
Enable periodic reminders that pop up during your session to show you how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered. A simple nudge can make a big difference when you are caught up in a live match.
Our support team is available around the clock. If you are worried about your own betting or a family member's, reach out and we will help you apply any of the above tools immediately, without judgement.
Most people who bet on cricket, PSL matches or live casino games do so without any problems at all. But problem gambling is more common than people realise, and it can affect anyone regardless of how much money they have or how disciplined they normally are. The key is recognising the signs early.
Here are some honest questions to ask yourself. If you find yourself nodding to several of these, it might be time to take a break or speak to someone:
Warning signs to watch for:
Using PKR that is meant for rent, groceries, utility bills or family expenses to fund betting sessions is a serious warning sign.
Placing bigger bets to try to win back what you have already lost often makes things worse, not better. This cycle is one of the most common patterns in problem gambling.
If you feel the need to hide how much you are betting from your family or close friends, that feeling itself is worth paying attention to.
Restlessness, irritability or a strong urge to bet even when you said you would stop are signs that betting may have moved beyond casual entertainment.
Sitting down for one PSL match and still betting three hours later is a pattern that can quietly get worse over time if left unchecked.
All of the tools below are built into your bet games account and are completely free to use. You do not need to speak to anyone to activate them — simply log in and access your account settings. Here is a quick breakdown of what each tool does:
Cap how much you can deposit per day, week or month. Lowering a limit takes effect immediately. Raising one requires a cooling-off period so you cannot impulsively remove it.
Set the maximum PKR amount you can lose across a defined period. Ideal for players who want to enjoy cricket betting without the risk of unexpected large losses.
Get an on-screen notification after a set amount of time — say 30 or 60 minutes — reminding you how long you have been active and prompting you to review your spending.
Pause your account for anywhere from 24 hours to 30 days. Your balance is safe and you can return after the period ends without losing anything.
Request a minimum 6-month exclusion if you need a longer break. We will close your account, block re-registration attempts from the same details and remove you from all marketing lists.
How to activate: Log in to your bet games account, go to Account Settings, and select Responsible Gaming. All tools are listed there. You can also contact our support team to have any tool applied on your behalf immediately.
The majority of bet games players in Pakistan enjoy betting as a fun add-on to the cricket they already watch. A bet on a T20 match or a PSL final makes a great game even more engaging. Here are some practical habits that help keep it that way:
Decide exactly how much PKR you are willing to spend before opening the app or website. Treat it like a ticket price for entertainment — once it is spent, the show is over.
Only bet with money you can genuinely afford to lose. Using borrowed funds — from friends, family or any credit source — adds financial pressure that turns entertainment into stress.
Step away from the screen between matches. Even during a busy PSL weekend, taking 30-minute breaks helps you stay clear-headed and avoid impulsive in-play bets.
No bet is guaranteed, even on a heavy favourite. Accepting that losses will happen — and not chasing them — is the single most effective habit for keeping betting enjoyable long-term.
Betting while upset, stressed or after a big loss tends to lead to poor decisions. If Pakistan just lost a match and you feel frustrated, that is the worst time to place another bet.
Betting works best as one part of a balanced life, not the main event. Staying active with friends, family and other interests naturally keeps betting in its proper place.
Betting is not a way to earn income. The house edge means that over a long period, the majority of players lose more than they win. Enjoy it as entertainment — set your budget, stick to it and walk away when it is done.
If you are worried about a family member's betting habits, our support team can advise on how to discuss it and what account-level tools can be applied. We treat all such enquiries with complete confidentiality.
You can also encourage them to visit this page and use the self-assessment quiz below to think honestly about their habits.
This is not a clinical tool — it is a straightforward set of questions to help you reflect honestly on your betting habits. If you answer "yes" to three or more, we strongly recommend using one of the self-control tools above or reaching out to our support team.
Have you ever bet more PKR than you originally planned in a single session, telling yourself "just one more"?
Have you borrowed money or sold something to fund your betting activity?
Have you placed bets using money intended for household bills, groceries or other family expenses?
Have you tried to chase losses by placing bigger bets to win back what you lost earlier?
Do you find yourself thinking about betting a lot — even during work, family time or other activities?
Have you hidden the amount you bet from your family, partner or friends?
Do you feel anxious, restless or irritable when you are not able to bet?
Have you tried to cut down on your betting but found it difficult to follow through?
If you answered "yes" to three or more of these questions, please consider activating a deposit limit, taking a time-out, or contacting our support team. Recognising the pattern early makes it much easier to address.
Bet games is a platform built for entertainment, not exploitation. We earn when players enjoy the platform — not when they develop problems. That is why responsible gaming is genuinely important to us, not just a box-ticking exercise.
Here is what we commit to doing on our end to keep the platform safe and fair for every player in Pakistan:
We require identity verification before processing withdrawals and actively work to prevent underage access to the platform. Betting is for adults only — no exceptions.
We do not send promotional offers to players who have set self-exclusions or expressed concerns about their gambling. Players under self-exclusion are removed from all marketing lists immediately.
Every self-control tool on this page is available to all bet games players at zero cost, at any time, without requiring a reason or explanation. Your wellbeing is not something we charge for.
Our support team is equipped to handle responsible gaming requests sensitively. They can activate limits, apply time-outs and help you through self-exclusion — without judgement and without delay.
We believe players make better decisions when they clearly understand how betting works. Our odds, bonus terms and withdrawal conditions are written in plain English, not buried in small print.
Bet games is strictly for players who are 18 years of age or older. We take underage gambling seriously and have measures in place to prevent minors from accessing the platform. If you share a device with younger family members, please make sure your account is protected by a strong password and that you log out after every session.
Parents and guardians can also use third-party parental control software to restrict access to betting websites on shared devices. This is especially worth considering in households where teenagers use the same smartphone or tablet.
Remember: If you discover that a minor has accessed your account, please contact our support team immediately. We will act quickly to secure the account, reverse any transactions where possible and ensure the minor is blocked from re-registration.
Join thousands of Pakistan players enjoying PSL cricket, live casino and sports betting responsibly. Set your limits, use your tools and keep the game fun.
