What Does Responsible Gaming Actually Mean?

Responsible gaming means betting in a way that doesn't harm your life. At cricketbet, we want you to treat betting as entertainment — the same way you'd enjoy a movie or a sport.

The truth is, most people who bet never run into serious problems. But if betting starts to spiral out of control, it can affect your personal, family, and financial life. That's why cricketbet offers a range of tools and support to help you stay in control.

Responsible betting means sticking to a budget, managing your time, and knowing when to walk away. These three habits keep betting what it should be — entertainment.

Keep in Mind

Betting is never a source of income — it's entertainment. Only wager what you can afford to lose.

Traits of a Responsible Bettor

Set a budget per session
Set a time limit
Accept losses without placing extra bets out of frustration
Prioritises family and social life
Betting is entertainment, not an obligation
Take a break when needed

You're in control

Responsible gaming features available at cricketbet

Setting a Deposit Limit

Set your own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Once set, it takes effect immediately. A 24-hour cooling period applies if you wish to increase it.

Session Time Limit

Decide in advance how many hours you'll play in one session. When the time is up, you'll receive an automatic alert with the option to end your session.

Set Loss Limit

Set a limit so that once you've lost a certain amount, you can no longer place bets. It's the most effective way to keep your losses in check.

Break Mode (Cool-Off)

Take a break from betting for 7 days, 1 month, or 3 months. Your account will be locked during this period, but your data stays safe.

Self-Exclusion

Exclude yourself from betting for 6 months to 5 years, or permanently. Once active, a self-exclusion cannot be easily reversed.

Reality Check

Pop-up notifications will appear at set intervals, reminding you how long you've been playing and showing your total wins and losses.

How do I set a limit?

Set up responsible betting tools on your cricketbet account in just a few steps. You can adjust them at any time, though protective changes take effect immediately.

Important Note

Reducing limits or activating self-exclusion takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit, however, requires a 24–72 hour cooling period.

Responsible Betting Tools – Details

Learn how each tool works

01
Deposit Limit

Deposit limits can be set across three periods — daily, weekly, and monthly. Lowering a limit takes effect immediately; increasing one requires a 24-hour waiting period.

02
Betting Limit

Set a cap on how much you can wager within a given period. Protect yourself from excessive betting.

03
Loss Limit

Set a loss limit before your session so you know when to stop. It helps you avoid chasing losses with emotional bets.

Time Limit

Decide how long you'll play in a single session. You'll be alerted when time is up. You can also control your total daily play time.

05
Cool-Off Period

Take a short break — from 1 week up to 3 months. Your account is inactive during this time, but your data is kept.

06
Self-Exclusion

6 months to permanent — remove yourself completely. Reactivating your account during an exclusion period is not straightforward.

Tips for Healthy Betting Habits

Build these simple habits to enjoy betting responsibly on cricketbet. They come in handy in everyday life too.

Always set a budget

Decide how much you're willing to spend before you start betting. Think of it as your "entertainment budget" — not a cent more.

Don't Bet on Impulse

Don't chase losses with bigger bets out of anger or frustration. A clear head is your best advantage.

Take Regular Breaks

Take at least a 10-minute break every hour. Step away, have some water, stretch your legs — then come back.

Set a winning goal too

Don't just set a loss limit — set a winning target too. Once you hit it, stop. Don't get greedy.

Avoid betting when you're tired or under the influence of alcohol

A clouded mind leads to poor decisions. Play with a clear head.

Protecting Family & Loved Ones

Protecting your family matters just as much as protecting yourself — especially if there are minors in your household.

Use a Device Password

Use strong passwords on your phone and computer to prevent children from gaining access.

Don't Share Your Account

Your cricketbet account is yours alone. Never share your login details with anyone.

Have an open conversation with your family

Talk openly with your family about betting — don't hide it from them.

Use Parental Controls

Use parental control software on your browser to prevent children from accessing betting sites.
