Important: Gambling Is Not a Way to Make Money

Gambling on hbdd — whether on cricket betting markets, live casino games, slots, or any other product — is intended solely as entertainment. The house always retains a statistical edge over time. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose. Never chase losses. Never use gambling as a source of income, a way to repay debts, or a coping mechanism for stress, anxiety, or personal difficulties. If you are experiencing financial hardship, please seek independent financial advice before placing any bets. hbdd's responsible gaming tools described on this page are available to every registered player at no cost and with no waiting period. Use them proactively — not only when a problem has already developed.


How hbdd Protects Every Player

Responsible gaming is not an afterthought at hbdd — it is built into the platform from the ground up. Here are the six core pillars of our player protection programme.

Strict 21+ Age Policy

No person under the age of 21 may register or place bets on hbdd. Age and identity verification is required for all accounts. We deploy automated checks and manual review processes to prevent underage access. Any account found to belong to a minor is closed immediately and all funds are returned to the depositing payment method.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit on your account at any time through your Account Settings panel. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased for a 24-hour cooling-off period. Reductions are applied instantly. This tool puts you in control of your spending before a session begins, not after.

Time-Out Periods

If you feel you need a short break from gambling, hbdd's time-out feature allows you to suspend your account for a defined period — from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. During a time-out, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. When the period expires, account access is automatically restored unless you choose to extend it.

Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is a stronger, longer-term tool for players who believe their gambling has become a problem. You may self-exclude for a minimum of 6 months or permanently. During self-exclusion, your account is fully suspended, all marketing communications are stopped, and re-registration attempts are blocked. Contact our support team to activate self-exclusion at any time.

Wagering Limits

Beyond deposit limits, you can set a maximum wagering (loss) limit per session or per day. This caps the total amount you can stake or lose within your chosen time frame regardless of which games or markets you play. Once the limit is reached, further wagering is blocked until the limit period resets.

Reality Check Reminders

hbdd's reality check feature sends you an on-screen notification at intervals you choose — every 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours — displaying how long you have been playing in the current session and your net win/loss position. This keeps you aware of time and spend, helping you make informed decisions about whether to continue or stop.


Your Safety Toolkit on hbdd

Every responsible gaming tool on hbdd is available directly from your account dashboard at zero cost. There is no application process, no waiting period, and no penalty for using them. The tools are designed to be quick to activate and immediately effective.

Players in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, and across Bangladesh can access all tools in English through the account panel. Our support team at [email protected] is available around the clock to assist with any tool activation — including emergency self-exclusion requests, which are processed within minutes of a support request being received.

We encourage all players to set deposit and wagering limits when they first create their account — not to restrict enjoyment, but to establish healthy boundaries that make the experience sustainable and fun over the long term.

Is Your Gambling Still Under Control?

It can be difficult to recognise when gambling has shifted from entertainment to something more problematic. The questions below are adapted from widely used responsible gaming self-assessment frameworks. Read through them honestly — there are no right or wrong answers, and your responses are entirely private.

If you answer "yes" to two or more of these questions, we strongly encourage you to use hbdd's self-exclusion or time-out tools and to reach out to a gambling support organisation. You can also contact our support team at [email protected] for confidential assistance.

    Answer honestly — your responses are private

1
Have you ever gambled with money you needed for rent, food, bills, or other essential expenses?
2
Have you ever tried to win back money you lost gambling — and then lost even more in the process?
3
Have you lied to family members, friends, or colleagues about how much time or money you spend on gambling?
4
Have you felt anxious, irritable, or restless when trying to cut down or stop gambling?
5
Has gambling ever caused serious problems in your relationships, work, studies, or mental health?
6
Do you find yourself thinking about gambling frequently — planning your next session or reliving past wins and losses?
7
Have you ever borrowed money, sold possessions, or broken the law in order to fund gambling?

Keeping Gambling Away from Young People

hbdd maintains a strict minimum age of 21 for all account holders. Every new registration is subject to age verification checks. However, we also recognise that parents and guardians in Bangladesh have a responsibility to prevent minors from accessing gambling content on shared devices.

We recommend the following steps to prevent underage access to hbdd and other gambling websites on any device used by young people in your household:

  • Always log out of your hbdd account completely when you are not using it — do not rely on the browser remembering your password.
  • Enable parental control software on shared computers, tablets, and smartphones. Tools such as Net Nanny, Qustodio, and built-in Android and iOS screen-time controls can block gambling websites at the device level.
  • Never share your account credentials with any other person, including family members over 21.
  • Set up separate, restricted user profiles for children on any device that is also used for gambling.
  • If you believe a minor has accessed or registered on hbdd, contact us immediately at [email protected] so we can investigate and take action.

Age Verification on Registration

Every new hbdd account requires submission of a valid government-issued ID. Accounts are suspended pending verification and activated only when age is confirmed.

Zero Tolerance for Underage Play

Any account found to be registered by a person under 21 is closed immediately. All deposits made to that account are returned and no winnings are paid.

Parental Control Guidance

hbdd supports third-party parental control tools. If you need guidance on blocking gambling sites on your household devices, our support team can point you to the right resources.


Responsible Gaming — Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the questions our players in Bangladesh ask most about staying safe on hbdd.

The minimum age to register and play on hbdd is 21 years old. This applies to all products on the platform including cricket betting, live casino, slots, and all other games. Players must provide valid government-issued identification — such as a Bangladesh National Identity Card or passport — during the account verification process. Any account found to belong to a person under 21 is closed immediately.

Log in to your hbdd account and go to Account Settings, then select the Responsible Gaming tab. From there, choose "Deposit Limits" and enter your desired daily, weekly, or monthly cap in BDT. The limit takes effect immediately. If you wish to lower the limit, the reduction is applied at once. If you wish to raise the limit, a mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period applies before the increase becomes active — giving you time to reconsider the decision.

A time-out is a short-term break lasting between 24 hours and 6 weeks. Your account is fully suspended during the period and automatically reactivated at the end. It is ideal for players who want a brief pause to reset. Self-exclusion is a longer-term commitment of at least 6 months, with an option for permanent exclusion. During self-exclusion, your account cannot be reactivated until the full period has elapsed, all marketing is stopped, and re-registration attempts are blocked. Self-exclusion is the appropriate tool when gambling has become or is at risk of becoming a problem.

Yes. Responsible gaming restrictions do not freeze your funds. You may contact our support team at [email protected] to request withdrawal of your remaining balance to your registered bKash, Nagad, or Rocket account at any time during a time-out or self-exclusion period. Withdrawals are processed according to hbdd's standard timelines. You will not be permitted to deposit or place bets during the restriction period, but your funds remain yours.

The most important step is to act immediately — do not wait for the problem to worsen. First, activate hbdd's self-exclusion tool via your Account Settings or by emailing [email protected] with the subject "URGENT: Self-Exclusion Request". Second, speak to someone you trust about what you are experiencing. Third, consider reaching out to a mental health or counselling professional. Recognising a problem early and using the tools available to you significantly improves outcomes. hbdd's support team can assist you in activating all protective measures quickly and confidentially.

Yes, completely. Every responsible gaming tool on hbdd — deposit limits, loss limits, time-out, self-exclusion, reality check reminders, and the account activity log — is available to all registered players at absolutely no cost. There is no application fee, no subscription, and no penalty for using these tools. hbdd actively encourages all players to make use of them. Setting sensible limits from the start of your account is one of the best habits any player can develop.
