What Responsible Gaming Means at dd44
Gambling at dd44 is designed to be entertaining — not a source of financial stress. We believe responsible gaming is a shared responsibility between the platform and its members. dd44 provides a comprehensive set of tools, safeguards, and resources to keep the experience positive, transparent, and within healthy boundaries for every player across Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, and beyond.
Deposit Limits
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from your dd44 account settings. Once a limit is in place, it takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a 7-day cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decisions. Decreasing a limit is always instant. Limits are available for all payment methods including bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and Upay.
Self-Exclusion
If you feel you need a complete break from gambling, dd44's self-exclusion tool allows you to close access to your account for a defined period — from 30 days up to 5 years — or permanently. During self-exclusion, all promotional communications are stopped, login is disabled, and any pending bonus balances are cancelled. Contact [email protected] to activate self-exclusion immediately.
Time-Out Feature
Need a short break without full self-exclusion? The dd44 time-out feature lets you pause your account for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out your account is inaccessible for betting and casino play, but your funds remain safely held and are available when the time-out expires. Time-outs can be requested at any time by contacting our 24/7 support team.
Loss Limits
In addition to deposit limits, dd44 members can set a maximum loss threshold per day, week, or month. Once your loss limit is reached, further wagers are blocked until the limit period resets. This tool is especially useful during high-intensity cricket events like BPL and IPL, when the temptation to chase losses can be strongest. Loss limits are adjustable from your account settings.
Reality Checks
dd44 can send you periodic session reminders that display how long you have been playing and your net win/loss position for the session. These reality-check notifications appear at intervals you choose — every 30, 60, or 90 minutes — and are designed to keep you aware of time and money spent so you can make informed decisions about continuing or stopping.
Age Verification
dd44 employs mandatory age verification for all new members. Providing a verifiable date of birth at registration is required, and documentary proof of age — such as a National ID card or passport — may be requested before the first withdrawal is processed. dd44 will never knowingly allow a person under 21 to hold a funded account or participate in any form of gambling activity.
Know the Signs
Recognising Problem Gambling
Gambling can be a fun pastime, but for some people it becomes harmful. Recognising the early warning signs is the first and most important step toward getting help. If any of the points below sound familiar, we strongly encourage you to reach out to dd44 support or one of the resources listed on this page.
Chasing Losses
Placing larger or more frequent bets in an attempt to recover money lost in previous sessions is one of the most common indicators of problematic gambling behaviour.
Gambling Beyond Your Means
Using money that was set aside for rent, bills, groceries, or other essential expenses to fund gambling activity is a serious warning sign that should not be ignored.
Losing Track of Time
Spending significantly more time gambling than you originally intended, or feeling unable to stop playing even when you want to, can indicate a loss of control.
Withdrawing from Others
Neglecting family, friends, work, or social activities in favour of gambling, or lying to people close to you about the extent of your gambling, are significant red flags.
Emotional Dependence
Using gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety, depression, boredom, or personal difficulties — rather than as a form of entertainment — suggests the activity may be causing harm.
Borrowing to Gamble
Taking loans, using credit facilities, or borrowing money from family and friends specifically to fund gambling activity is a clear and serious sign that professional help may be needed.
Important: Experiencing one or more of these signs does not mean you are beyond help. Many people successfully regain control with the right tools and support. dd44's responsible gaming team is available 24/7 at [email protected] and can help you activate deposit limits, time-out features, or self-exclusion immediately — no waiting period required for protective measures.
Step-by-Step
How to Activate Our Player Protection Tools
Every responsible gaming tool offered by dd44 can be activated quickly — in most cases within minutes. Here is how to set up each protection measure, whether you prefer to manage things yourself through account settings or contact our support team directly.
Fastest Route: For immediate protection — especially self-exclusion and time-out — the fastest method is always to contact our live support team directly via chat or email at [email protected]. These requests are processed instantly, around the clock, every day of the year including Eid, Pohela Boishakh, and national holidays.
1
Set a Deposit Limit
Log in to your dd44 account and navigate to Account Settings > Responsible Gaming > Deposit Limits. Select your preferred limit type (daily, weekly, or monthly), enter the maximum amount in BDT, and confirm. Your limit is active immediately. To increase an existing limit, a 7-day review period applies automatically. Decreasing your limit takes effect the moment you save the change.
Self-Service Available
2
Set a Session Time-Out
In Account Settings > Responsible Gaming > Time-Out, choose your preferred break duration: 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Once confirmed, your account is immediately locked for the selected period. Your funds are fully preserved and your account automatically re-opens when the period ends. Alternatively, contact our support team 24/7 to activate a time-out on your behalf.
Instant Activation

Activate Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion is the most powerful protective tool available. You may choose a defined exclusion period (30 days, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or 5 years) or opt for permanent exclusion. Email [email protected] with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request — [Your Username]" or request it via live chat. Self-exclusion is processed within 1 hour, all marketing is stopped immediately, and the account cannot be reopened before the exclusion period ends under any circumstances.

Enable Reality Check Notifications
Go to Account Settings > Responsible Gaming > Reality Checks and select your preferred reminder interval: every 30, 60, or 90 minutes of active session time. When a reality check triggers, a notification will display your total session duration, total amount wagered, and net win/loss. You can then choose to continue or end your session. This feature works across sports betting and casino games.
Self-Service Available
5
Request an Account Closure
If you wish to permanently close your dd44 account, contact our support team at [email protected] with the subject line "Account Closure Request — [Your Username]". Any remaining balance will be returned to your verified withdrawal method within 3 business days. Permanent closures are final and cannot be reversed. This option is separate from self-exclusion and results in full data erasure subject to our legal retention obligations as described in our Privacy Policy.

Self-Assessment
Take a Moment to Reflect
The following questions are adapted from widely used responsible gambling assessment frameworks. They are not a clinical diagnosis — they are a private, anonymous starting point for honest reflection. Read each question and consider whether it applies to your recent gambling behaviour.
If you answer "yes" to three or more of these questions, we strongly encourage you to reach out to dd44 support or an external counselling service. Answering honestly costs nothing — and could make a significant difference.
Private and Anonymous: This self-assessment is not recorded by dd44. It is purely for your own reflection. No data is submitted when you read these questions.
1
Have you ever spent more money on gambling than you originally planned to in a single session?
2
Have you ever borrowed money or sold personal belongings in order to fund your gambling activity?
3
Have you felt restless, irritable, or anxious when you have tried to reduce or stop gambling?
4
Have you missed work, school, family commitments, or social events because of time spent gambling?
5
Have you tried to hide the extent of your gambling from family members, friends, or your employer?
6
Have you gambled in order to escape from personal problems, worries, loneliness, or emotional difficulties?
7
After losing money, have you felt a strong urge to return as soon as possible to try and win it back?
8
Has gambling ever caused significant financial difficulties, arguments, or relationship problems in your life?

External Counselling
For professional, independent gambling counselling, we encourage members to contact qualified mental health professionals or addiction counsellors operating in Bangladesh. Speaking to a neutral third party can be a powerful first step.
Seek local professional guidance
Gambling involves risk. Please gamble responsibly. dd44 strongly encourages all members to treat gambling as entertainment, not as a source of income. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose. Set your limits before you start a session and stick to them. If you or someone close to you is struggling with gambling-related harm, please reach out to dd44 support or a professional counsellor without delay. Bangladesh Standard Time (BST, UTC+6) applies to all dd44 support response commitments.
