Player Protection

Responsible Gaming at 689bt

Gaming should be an enjoyable, entertaining experience — not a source of financial stress or personal harm. 689bt is deeply committed to responsible gaming across every corner of its platform, providing Bangladeshi players with a full suite of tools and resources to keep their play healthy, informed, and firmly within their control.

18+ Only — Strictly Enforced Self-Exclusion Available Deposit Limits Supported Time-Out Features Active

Responsible Gaming Tools at a Glance

689bt equips every registered player with a comprehensive set of protective tools built directly into the account dashboard. These tools are available at no cost, require no special request, and can be activated at any time — day or night — through the account settings panel or by contacting our 24/7 support team.

Self-Exclusion

Temporarily or permanently block your own access to the 689bt platform. Self-exclusion can be set for periods ranging from 30 days to a permanent closure, giving you complete control over your participation.

Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit caps in BDT directly from your account. Once a limit is in place, it cannot be increased for a mandatory cooling-off period, ensuring impulsive decisions do not override your chosen boundaries.

Session Time Limits

Define a maximum daily or weekly time allowance for your gaming sessions. When your limit is reached, 689bt will notify you and, if configured, automatically end your active session to prevent extended unplanned play.

Cool-Off Period

Take a short break from the platform without permanently closing your account. Cool-off periods of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days pause all gaming activity while preserving your account balance and history.

Loss Limits

Establish a maximum amount you are willing to lose within a given timeframe. Loss limits work alongside deposit caps to give you a comprehensive financial safety net and prevent chasing losses beyond a predefined threshold.

24/7 Support Access

Our trained support team is available around the clock via live chat, WhatsApp, and email. If you feel your gambling is becoming a problem, contact us any time — our team can guide you to the right tools or resources immediately.

1. Our Commitment to Safe Play

At 689bt, responsible gaming is not a checkbox exercise — it is a core pillar of how we operate. From the moment a player creates an account on our platform, their wellbeing sits alongside entertainment as a primary concern. We believe that a sustainable, enjoyable gaming environment is built on trust, transparency, and genuine care for the people who use our platform.

689bt operates exclusively as an entertainment platform for adults. Every product we offer — whether it is live casino tables powered by Evolution Gaming, cricket betting markets on BPL and IPL fixtures, slot titles from Pragmatic Play and NetEnt, or crash games like Aviator from Spribe — is designed for recreational play within means. We are not in the business of encouraging players to spend beyond their comfort level or to pursue gambling as an income source.

Our responsible gaming framework is built on four key principles: prevention, through strict age verification and player education; control, through accessible in-account limit-setting tools; early intervention, through behavioural monitoring and proactive outreach; and support, through round-the-clock access to trained staff and guidance on external help organisations.

The 689bt Safe Play Pledge

689bt pledges to always prioritise player wellbeing over revenue. We will never pressure players to increase limits, never remove self-exclusions early, and always direct players in distress to appropriate help — without judgment, without delay.

2. 18+ Age Restriction Policy

689bt enforces a strict minimum age requirement of 18 years for all users of its platform. This requirement applies universally — to account registration, deposits, wagering, withdrawals, and participation in any promotional or bonus offer. There are no exceptions to this policy under any circumstances.

Why Age Verification Matters

Gambling can carry real financial and psychological risks that minors are particularly ill-equipped to manage. Protecting young people from accessing gambling products is both a legal responsibility and a moral obligation that 689bt takes with the utmost seriousness. Our age verification procedures are designed to be thorough, reliable, and impossible to circumvent through false declarations alone.

Our Verification Process

All new 689bt accounts are required to complete Know Your Customer (KYC) verification before any deposit or withdrawal is processed. As part of this process, players must submit a valid government-issued photo identification document — such as a Bangladesh National Identity Card (NID), passport, or driving licence — that clearly shows their date of birth. Our KYC team reviews every submission and will not approve an account where the applicant cannot be confirmed as 18 years of age or older.

Zero Tolerance: Any account found to belong to a person under 18 years of age will be closed immediately, all winnings will be forfeited, and any deposited funds will be returned to the payment source used. Attempting to create an account using false age information is a serious violation of our Terms & Conditions.

Protecting Minors in Your Household

If you share a device with minors, we strongly recommend keeping your 689bt account credentials private, using device-level parental controls, and logging out of your account after every session. Never allow a person under 18 to use your account, even to simply browse the platform. If you have any concern that a minor may have accessed gambling content through your account, contact our support team immediately.

3. Self-Exclusion Tools

Self-exclusion is one of the most powerful tools available to any player who feels that their gambling is no longer under control. 689bt takes all self-exclusion requests with complete seriousness and processes them without delay, without question, and without any attempt to dissuade the player from going ahead.

How Self-Exclusion Works on 689bt

Players can initiate a self-exclusion by contacting our support team via live chat or by emailing [email protected]. Once a self-exclusion is in place, the affected account is locked against all gaming activity, deposits, and promotional communications for the full duration of the exclusion period chosen. Self-exclusion options available on 689bt include:

  • 30-day exclusion — a short-term break to step back and reassess your play habits.
  • 90-day exclusion — a medium-term pause to address concerns and seek support if needed.
  • 180-day exclusion — a longer break for players who need sustained distance from the platform.
  • 1-year exclusion — a full year away from all 689bt products and communications.
  • Permanent exclusion — a lifetime closure of the account with no option to reopen it in the future.
Important: Once a self-exclusion is activated, it cannot be reversed before the period expires. This is intentional — the cooling-off lock exists precisely to prevent impulsive requests to reopen access during a moment of temptation. After a temporary exclusion expires, a mandatory review period applies before the account can be reactivated.

How to Request Self-Exclusion

  • 1
    Contact 689bt Support

    Reach out via live chat on the platform, via WhatsApp at +880 1700-689689, or by emailing [email protected]. State clearly that you wish to self-exclude and specify your preferred exclusion period.

  • 2
    Identity Confirmation

    Our support agent will confirm your account identity using standard security questions. This step ensures the exclusion is applied to the correct account and protects against third-party misuse.

  • 3
    Exclusion Activated Immediately

    Your account will be locked within minutes of your request being confirmed. You will receive a confirmation message via your registered contact details. Any pending withdrawals at the time of exclusion will be processed normally.

  • 4
    Marketing Suppression Applied

    All promotional communications — including SMS, email, and WhatsApp messages — are stopped immediately. You will not receive any bonus offers, match promotions, or re-engagement messages during your exclusion period.

4. Deposit & Spending Limits

One of the most effective ways to keep gambling within a healthy budget is to set firm financial boundaries before you start playing. 689bt provides built-in deposit and spending limit tools that allow you to define exactly how much you are willing to spend over a given period — and to hold yourself to that commitment automatically.

Types of Financial Limits Available

01
Daily Deposit Limit

Set a maximum BDT amount that can be deposited within any rolling 24-hour period. Once reached, further deposits are blocked until the next day begins. Ideal for players who want to keep a tight daily budget.

02
Weekly Deposit Limit

Define a maximum deposit amount across any rolling 7-day window. Weekly limits give players who prefer a broader planning horizon a reliable way to stay within a sustainable weekly entertainment budget.

03
Monthly Deposit Limit

Cap your total deposits across a full calendar month. Monthly limits are particularly useful for players who receive income on a monthly cycle and want to allocate a fixed entertainment allowance accordingly.

04
Loss Limit

Set a maximum net loss threshold for a daily, weekly, or monthly period. When this threshold is reached, further wagering is paused for the remainder of the period — even if funds remain in your account balance.

Rules Governing Limit Changes

To ensure limits serve their protective purpose rather than being bypassed in moments of impulse, 689bt applies the following rules to all financial limit settings:

  • Decreasing a limit takes effect immediately.
  • Increasing a limit or removing a limit is subject to a mandatory 7-day cooling-off period before the change takes effect. This delay is non-negotiable and cannot be shortened by any support request.
  • All limit changes are logged and auditable by the player through their account history.
  • Players will receive a confirmation notification via their registered contact details whenever a limit change is requested or applied.
Helpful Tip: A good rule of thumb for responsible gambling in Bangladesh is to treat your monthly gaming budget the same way you would treat spending on entertainment like dining out or cinema tickets — set a comfortable fixed amount, and once it is spent, that is your entertainment for the month. Never deposit money that is intended for household bills, rent, groceries, or family responsibilities.

5. Time-Out & Cool-Off Features

Extended gaming sessions can sometimes cloud judgement and lead to decisions that a rested, clear-headed player would not make. 689bt's time-out and cool-off features are designed to introduce natural breaks that help you maintain perspective and enjoyment over the long term.

Session Time Reminders

Players can configure automatic reminders that appear after a set period of continuous play — for example, after 30 minutes, 60 minutes, or 2 hours of uninterrupted gaming. These reminders appear as on-screen notifications that briefly pause gameplay and prompt the player to check their session duration, review their balance, and decide whether to continue or step away. Reminders are non-intrusive by default but can be escalated to a mandatory acknowledgment prompt if the player prefers a firmer boundary.

Session Time Limits

Beyond reminders, players can set hard session time limits that automatically end an active gaming session when the configured duration is reached. A 5-minute warning is displayed before the session ends, giving players the opportunity to wrap up any active game round in an orderly manner. Once the limit is reached, the player must deliberately log back in to resume play — introducing a moment of conscious re-engagement that helps prevent mindless continuation.

Cool-Off Periods

A cool-off period is a short-term voluntary account suspension for players who want a brief break without initiating a full self-exclusion. During a cool-off period, the account is inactive for gaming and deposits, but the account itself remains intact. Cool-off periods available on 689bt are:

  • 24 hours — a single day away from the platform.
  • 7 days — a full week's break.
  • 30 days — a month-long pause, after which the account reactivates automatically unless the player extends the break or requests a self-exclusion.
Note: All cool-off and time-out requests submitted to 689bt are actioned within minutes by our support team, regardless of the time of day or day of the week. Our commitment to player protection does not operate on business hours — it runs 24/7, every day of the year, including Eid and public holidays.

6. Recognising Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually and is often difficult to recognise from the inside. Many players who develop unhealthy gambling habits do not initially see themselves as having a problem — it can begin as light entertainment and slowly shift into something that occupies too much time, money, and mental energy. Awareness is the first and most important step toward regaining control.

Common Warning Signs

The following behaviours can indicate that gambling is moving beyond healthy recreation and beginning to cause harm. If you recognise several of these patterns in your own play, we strongly encourage you to use 689bt's limit tools, take a cool-off period, or contact our support team for guidance.

Spending more money on gambling than you originally planned or can afford to lose.
Chasing losses — continuing to deposit and wager in an attempt to win back money already lost.
Gambling with money intended for essential expenses such as rent, groceries, utilities, or family needs.
Feeling unable to stop or take a break, even when you intend to do so.
Hiding your gambling activity from family members, friends, or colleagues.
Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when you are not gambling or when you try to stop.
Borrowing money, taking loans, or selling personal belongings to fund gambling activity.
Gambling for increasingly long sessions to experience the same level of excitement as before.
Neglecting work, studies, family responsibilities, or social relationships due to gambling.
Viewing gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety, depression, or personal problems.
If you recognise these signs: You are not alone, and there is no shame in seeking help. Contact our support team at any time — they are trained to listen without judgment and to help you access the right tools immediately. Problem gambling is a recognised condition, and recovery is absolutely possible with the right support in place.

7. Getting Help & Support

If you or someone you know is struggling with gambling-related harm, reaching out for support is the most important step you can take. 689bt's own support team is always available as a first point of contact, and we can guide players toward additional resources where appropriate. You do not need to be in crisis to seek help — early conversations are always easier than later ones.

What to Expect When You Contact Us

When you reach out to 689bt's responsible gaming team, you can expect a respectful, non-judgmental conversation. Our agents will listen to your concerns, explain the tools available to you, help you activate the appropriate limits or exclusions, and — if you feel you need external professional support — provide signposting information. We will never pressure you to continue gambling or suggest that your concerns are not valid.

All responsible gaming communications are treated as strictly confidential. Information shared with our support team in the context of a responsible gaming conversation will not be used for marketing purposes and will not affect your standing or history as a player beyond the protective measures you choose to activate.

8. Tips for Responsible Play

Responsible gaming starts with good habits. The players who enjoy gambling the most over the long term are those who approach it with clear boundaries, realistic expectations, and a healthy perspective on what gambling is — and what it is not. Here are 689bt's practical tips for keeping your play enjoyable and sustainable.

Set a Budget Before You Play

Decide on a fixed amount in BDT that you are comfortable losing entirely before you deposit a single taka. Treat it as your entertainment budget for the session — once it is gone, the session is over.

Gambling Is Entertainment, Not Income

The house edge means that over time, the mathematical outcome favours the platform. Enjoy 689bt games for the excitement and experience they provide — not as a strategy to generate money or solve financial problems.

Never Chase Losses

Chasing losses is one of the fastest paths to problem gambling. If you have reached your budget limit for a session, log out, step away, and return another time with a fresh mindset and a fresh budget.

Take Regular Breaks

Avoid long, unbroken gaming sessions. Set a timer or use 689bt's session reminder tool to prompt yourself to take a break every 45–60 minutes. Rest, hydrate, and check your balance before continuing.

Talk to Someone You Trust

If gambling is becoming a bigger part of your life than you would like, talking to a trusted friend, family member, or colleague can be a valuable first step. You do not have to manage this alone.

Review Your Gaming History

689bt provides a full transaction and gaming history in your account dashboard. Reviewing this periodically gives you an accurate, objective picture of how much time and money you are spending — without relying on memory alone.

Play Smart. Play Safely. Play with 689bt.
