Gaming on b9998 is meant to be entertaining — a fun way to follow the cricket season, enjoy a slot session, or catch some live casino action from the comfort of your home in Karachi, Lahore, or Islamabad. But b9998 recognises that gambling can become harmful for some players, and we take our duty of care seriously. This page explains the tools, policies, and resources b9998 provides to help every player stay in control and game within their means.
Six pillars that define how b9998 protects players and promotes safer gambling across the platform.
b9998 enforces a minimum age of 21 for all account registrations and gaming activity. Identity documents are verified during the KYC process to confirm age before withdrawals are approved. Accounts found to belong to individuals under 21 are permanently closed without exception.
Any b9998 player who feels their gambling is becoming problematic can request a self-exclusion through the Account Settings page or by contacting support. Self-exclusion locks the account from login and all marketing communications for a minimum period of 6 months, with options up to permanent closure.
Players can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits and loss limits directly from their b9998 account dashboard — denominated in Pakistani Rupees. Increases to these limits require a mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period before taking effect. Reductions apply immediately.
Not ready for full self-exclusion? b9998 offers short-term Time-Out options of 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out, you cannot log in, place bets, or make deposits. The time-out cannot be shortened once activated — only extended.
b9998 monitors player activity patterns to identify signs of problem gambling — such as rapidly increasing bet sizes, extended uninterrupted sessions, or large chasing bets after losses. Our responsible gaming team may reach out proactively to players showing these patterns.
b9998 strongly encourages all account holders to use device-level parental controls if minors have access to their devices. Never share your b9998 login credentials with family members under 21. If you suspect a minor has accessed a b9998 account, contact support immediately for emergency account lock.
Every b9998 account comes with a full suite of limit controls. Set them up in Account Settings — they are free and take effect immediately.
Cap how much PKR you deposit in a single day
Set a 7-day rolling maximum for deposits
Control your total monthly top-up budget in PKR
Stop play automatically once losses reach your set amount
Set a maximum session length with an in-game reminder
Cap the maximum single stake on sports or casino bets
Self-exclusion is a serious tool designed for players who feel they need a mandatory break. Once activated, it cannot be reversed during the chosen period — this is by design to protect you.
Access your b9998 account from any device. Self-exclusion can be initiated 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — you do not need to wait for support office hours. If you cannot log in, contact support directly at [email protected].
From your Account Dashboard, select "Settings" and then "Responsible Gaming." You will find all limit controls and the self-exclusion option in one place. No need to navigate through multiple menus.
Choose from 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanent exclusion. If you are unsure, select the longer option — it is always possible to apply for reinstatement after the minimum period, but a shorter exclusion cannot be extended without completing the minimum term first.
After confirming your selection, your b9998 account is locked immediately. You will receive an email confirmation to the address registered on your account. All promotional marketing from b9998 will be suppressed for the duration of your exclusion period.
Self-exclusion from b9998 is one step — not the only step. We encourage all self-excluding players to also speak with a qualified counsellor or contact a dedicated problem gambling helpline. Reaching out for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Problem gambling does not always look dramatic. Often it develops gradually. b9998 wants all Pakistani players to be aware of the early warning signs so they can act before things become serious.
Take a moment to honestly consider these questions. There are no right or wrong answers — but your honest responses can help you decide whether to use b9998's responsible gaming tools.
Do you spend more on gambling than you originally planned when you sit down to play?
Have you ever felt irritable, anxious, or restless when you tried to reduce or stop gambling?
Have you gambled to escape from stress, family problems, or negative emotions?
Has gambling caused tension, arguments, or financial difficulty in your household?
Do you find yourself thinking about gambling frequently when you are not playing?
All tools are available free of charge inside your b9998 Account Settings. No fees, no waiting periods for activating protections — only increases to limits carry a 24-hour delay.
Full account lock for 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanent. Cannot be reversed during the chosen period. All marketing suppressed immediately.
Short-term break of 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Account access suspended for the full period with no early reversal.
Daily, weekly, and monthly deposit caps and loss limits in PKR. Reductions instant; increases require 24-hour delay for your protection.
Set session-length notifications that pop up during play, reminding you how long you have been active and your net session result in PKR.
b9998 enforces a minimum age of 21 across all gaming categories — sports betting, casino, slots, poker, and bingo — without exception. This age threshold is set in the interest of protecting younger adults from the financial and psychological risks associated with gambling before they have the financial independence and emotional maturity to engage with it safely.
During account verification, players are required to submit a valid CNIC or passport to confirm their identity and date of birth. Accounts where KYC documents cannot confirm the 21+ requirement are suspended and any deposited funds are returned. There are no exceptions to this policy — not for partial verification, not for existing accounts.
If you are a parent, guardian, or household member and believe someone under 21 has accessed a b9998 account — whether through a shared device in Faisalabad, Rawalpindi, or anywhere else in Pakistan — please contact [email protected] immediately for an emergency account review.
b9998 is designed for entertainment. Cricket betting, PSL wagers, slot sessions, and live casino games are recreational activities with real financial risk — they should never be approached as a reliable way to earn income, recover debt, or solve financial problems.
Before you play, b9998 recommends setting yourself a clear entertainment budget in PKR — an amount you are genuinely comfortable losing entirely, because that is always a possible outcome. Think of it the same way you would budget for a dinner out in Gulberg or a cinema trip in DHA: it is money spent on an experience, not an investment.
Our platform is built around fair, regulated play. The house edge is transparent in all b9998 casino games and explained in the relevant game information sections. b9998 does not manipulate odds or outcomes — but the mathematical reality is that over time the house holds an advantage. Understanding this is the foundation of responsible gambling.
Set your limits, know your boundaries, and enjoy cricket betting, slots, and live casino the right way. Your b9998 account comes with every responsible gaming tool built in — completely free.
21+ only. Gambling involves risk. Please play within your means and use our responsible gaming tools.
