2020bet — Responsible Gaming Guidelines

Gaming should be a form of entertainment, not a source of income. 2020bet is committed to creating a safe, healthy, and responsible gaming environment where every player stays in control and feels secure.

What Is Responsible Gaming and Why It Matters

Responsible gaming means enjoying gaming while staying in control — keeping your time and spending within limits and ensuring gaming never has a negative impact on your life. 2020bet believes online gaming should be entertainment: something that adds enjoyment to your free time without ever harming your family life, work, or financial stability.

Unfortunately, for some people gaming can become a problem. When it shifts from entertainment to compulsive play, chasing losses, and neglecting daily responsibilities, it is important to act quickly. 2020bet provides a range of tools and support to help you take those steps.

On this page you will find: warning signs of problematic gaming, tools to protect yourself (deposit limits, session timers, Self-Exclusion), and external sources of support. It also explains how to seek help if you or someone you care about is struggling.

Our Commitment

2020bet provides all responsible gaming tools completely free of charge. No additional verification or fees are required to use any tool — your well-being is always our first priority.

Warning Signs of Problem Gaming

Problem gaming often develops gradually, and players themselves are frequently the last to notice. Below are some common warning signs. If you recognise one or more in yourself, it is worth taking a break and seeking help.

Loss of Control Over Time

Playing far longer than you planned. Hours pass without you even realizing it.

Chasing Losses

Chasing losses — telling yourself you will win back what you lost, only to lose even more.

Spending Beyond Your Means

Spending money meant for bills, food, or essential costs on gaming. Playing with borrowed money or loans.

Damaged Relationships

Gaming is causing arguments with family or friends. Your loved ones are raising concerns.

Impact on Work or Studies

Frequently arriving late to work or neglecting studies due to gaming.

Stress

Anxiety, depression, or guilt caused by gaming. Feeling irritable or low after a loss.

Concealment

Hiding from family how much time or money is being spent on gaming. Being dishonest about it.

Unable to Stop

You've told yourself you'll stop, but find yourself opening the app again shortly after.

Emergency

If gaming is seriously affecting your life, you are having thoughts of suicide, or your mental health is deteriorating, seek professional help immediately. National Mental Health Helpline in Bangladesh: 16789 (free of charge).

Responsible Gaming Tools at 2020bet

We provide a range of tools to help you keep your gaming activity in check. They are completely free and can be activated at any time from your Account Settings.

Deposit Limit

Set a maximum amount you can deposit daily, weekly, or monthly. Once the limit is reached, no further deposits will be allowed.

How to Set It Up: Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Set Deposit Limit.

Loss Limit

Set a maximum loss limit for a given period. Once you reach it, you won't be able to play until the period resets.

Example: Setting a weekly loss limit of ৳5,000 means play will stop once you have lost BDT 5,000 that week.

Session Timer

Set a limit on how long you play in one sitting. You'll receive a notification when time is up, with the option to log out automatically.

Suggestion: Take a break every 1–2 hours. Playing with regular breaks is far healthier than long, uninterrupted sessions.

Reality Check

A pop-up will appear at set intervals showing how long you have been playing and how much you have won or lost.

Default: Every 30 minutes. You can adjust the frequency to suit your preference.

Cool-Off (Temporary Break)

Temporarily suspend your account for 24 hours, 7 days, or 1 month. You won't be able to log in during this period, but your balance will be kept safe.

When to Use It: You feel like you're spending too much time gaming or playing on impulse.

Self-Exclusion

Close your account for 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. During this period the account cannot be reopened under any circumstances — even our support team will not be able to reactivate it.

Warning: This is a serious step. Once Self-Exclusion is activated, you will not be able to return until the period expires.

How to Access

Log in → Profile icon → "Account Settings" → "Responsible Gaming" section to access all tools. For any issues, email us at [email protected].

Take a Self-Assessment: Gaming Addiction Quiz

Answer the following questions honestly. If most of your answers are "Yes," you should consider seeking help.

  1. Do you often spend more time or money on gaming than you planned?
  2. After a loss, do you go back to playing in order to win back what you lost?
  3. Is gaming causing problems with your family, friends, or work?
  4. Have you ever lied about your gaming or hidden how much you play?
  5. Have you ever spent money meant for bills or urgent expenses on gaming?
  6. Do you feel restless or irritable when you're not playing?
  7. Have you tried to stop gaming but couldn't?
  8. Are you experiencing stress, anxiety, or depression as a result of gaming?

If 3 or more of your answers are "Yes", your gaming may be getting out of control. Please seek professional help or at least activate Self-Exclusion.

Guide for Family & Friends

Is someone you love struggling with a gaming addiction? It doesn't just affect them — the whole family feels it. Here are some tips that may help you.

How to Recognise It

  • A loved one keeps asking for money but is vague about where it is being spent
  • Valuables around the home going missing or being sold
  • Being absent during family time, always occupied with your phone
  • Mood swings — especially becoming irritable when money is brought up
  • Sleeping less, feeling stressed, appearing anxious

What to Do

  • Choose a safe moment to talk: Choose a moment when they are calm — not right after a loss. Express concern without placing blame.
  • Listen: Let them talk. People struggling with addiction often know something is wrong but feel too ashamed to bring it up on their own.
  • Share Helpful Resources: Share helpline numbers and counsellor contacts. Offer to go with them if needed.
  • Financial Protection: If you have a joint bank account, consider separating it. Limit access to credit cards or loans.
  • Do Not Give Money: Giving money "just this once" makes the problem worse, not better. Stay firm.

Take Care of Yourself

A loved one's addiction can take a toll on your own mental health too. Seek counselling for yourself if needed, and have open conversations with other family members.

Build Healthy Gaming Habits

Prevention is always better than cure. Here are some practical tips to help you maintain healthy gaming habits.

Set a Budget

Before you start playing, decide how much you are willing to spend — an amount you can afford to lose without it affecting your life. Think of it as entertainment spending, not an investment.

Set Time Limits

Decide in advance how long you'll play each day or week. Set an alarm. When time's up, stop — even if you're winning.

Keep Up Other Hobbies

Don't let gaming be your only hobby. Stay active with sports, reading, spending time with friends, and other interests.

Never play under the influence of alcohol.

Alcohol and substances impair your judgement. Always play with a clear head.

Don't Chase Your Losses

Chasing losses is the biggest trap. If you lose, call it a day.

Take Regular Breaks

Take a 10–15 minute break every hour. Get up, walk around, and give your eyes a rest.
