Gaming is entertainment — set a budget before playing and stick to that limit without exception
2
Do not chase losses — stop playing when you reach your preset loss limit, without attempting to chase your losses
3
Balance your time — gaming should never interfere with your work, family, sleep, or daily responsibilities
4
Play with a clear mind — avoid playing when you are stressed, angry, sad, or under the influence of alcohol
5
Seek help early — no one is too strong to need support; reach out to our team if you feel you need it
Self-Control Tools We Provide

All these tools are available directly in your account settings — and can be activated at any time without needing to contact support first.

Daily / Weekly Deposit Limit

Set the maximum deposit amount you can make per day, week, or month. Once the limit is set, the 888 game system will automatically block any deposit that exceeds it until the limit period resets.

Session Time Limit

Set a time limit for each of your gaming sessions. When the set time is nearly up, 888 game will send you an alert. This feature helps you stay aware of how long you have been playing and prevents sessions from running too long.

Temporary Self-Break

Need a short break from gaming? Activate the self-break feature for 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or any other duration you choose. During the break period, your account cannot be used to play — even if you change your mind.

Long-Term Self-Exclusion

For those who need a longer break, the self-exclusion feature allows you to close account access for 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. Long-term self-exclusion requests are processed immediately and cannot be reversed until the period expires.

Gaming Activity Report

View a full summary of your gaming activity including total time played, total amount wagered, wins, and losses for each period. This report helps you understand your gaming patterns objectively and make smarter decisions.

Recognise the Signs of Problem Gaming

Problem gambling doesn't happen overnight. It develops gradually and can sometimes be hard to recognise on your own. Here are some warning signs to watch out for — whether in yourself or someone you care about.

Warning Signs
Feeling the urge to bet more money to get the same level of excitement as before
Frequently attempting to recover losses by betting more ("chasing losses")
Lying to family or friends about time and money spent on gaming
Using money meant for basic necessities (rent, food, bills) to gamble
Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when trying to stop playing
Gaming starts to affect work performance, family relationships, or sleep quality
Playing to escape feelings of sadness, stress, or other life problems
Borrowing money or selling belongings to fund gambling
If you recognise two or more of the signs above in yourself, this is the right time to take a break and seek support. Reach out to the 888 game team via live chat — we are here to help without any judgement.
Check In with a Quick Self-Assessment

Answer the following questions honestly to get a picture of your gaming patterns. This is a self-reflection tool, not a clinical diagnosis.

1. Have you ever wagered more than you planned in a single session?
2. Has gambling ever made you feel guilty or regretful?
3. Have you ever tried to stop playing but failed to do so?
4. Has the money spent on playing affected your monthly finances?
If most of your answers fall in the first or second option, we encourage you to contact the 888 game support team to discuss which self-control tools are right for you.

FAQ — Responsible Gaming

Answers to the most frequently asked questions by Malaysia players about responsible gaming features at 888 game.

A deposit limit is the maximum amount of money you can add to your 888 game account within a set period — whether daily, weekly, or monthly. For example, if you set a deposit limit of RM200 per week, our system will automatically decline any deposit attempt that exceeds that limit until the weekly period resets. This limit takes effect immediately once you save the setting, and any request to increase the limit requires a 7-day cooling-off period before the change takes effect — to ensure you are not making decisions in an emotional state.

No — and this is intentional, to protect you. When you activate a self-pause, your account will be locked for the duration you selected and cannot be reopened before the end date even if you request cancellation. This is an important protective feature to prevent you from falling back into playing habits when a temporary urge strikes. Once the pause period ends, you will need to actively confirm that you wish to resume playing before your account is reopened.

A self-break is a temporary pause — typically between 24 hours and 90 days — that you can activate yourself in your account settings. It is suitable for players who just need a little time away from gaming. Self-exclusion, on the other hand, is a more serious step, usually for a period of 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. It requires you to contact our support team, and once activated, your account cannot be accessed at all until the period ends. We will also not send you any promotions or marketing communications during your self-exclusion period.

888 game applies a strict identity verification (KYC) process during registration. Every new player is required to submit valid identification documents to verify their age before any gaming is permitted. In addition, our system actively monitors account activity to detect any behaviour suggesting a possible underage user. Parents are also encouraged to use parental control software on devices shared with children as an additional layer of protection.

The most effective approach is to speak with your friend with empathy and without judgment. Choose a calm moment, express your concerns based on what you have observed — not accusations — and offer your support. You can contact the 888 game support team via live chat for guidance on how to help someone you care about. We also encourage you to refer to counselling services at Malaysian public health clinics or relevant local support organisations.

Yes, completely safe. All balances in your account are fully protected during any self-pause or self-exclusion period. Your funds go nowhere. When the period ends and your account is reopened, your balance will remain exactly as it was. If you wish to withdraw your balance during a pause period, you may contact our support team for a special withdrawal request — this is handled manually and processed within 1 to 3 working days.
