1. What Does Responsible Gaming Mean

Responsible Gaming is a mindset and habit where gaming remains purely a form of entertainment—not a primary life goal or source of income. hhbf-we want you to enjoy every moment, while keeping your financial and mental well-being in mind.

Online gaming and betting are inherently risk-based activities. Just as there is a chance to win, there is an equal chance of losing. Gaming only brings genuine enjoyment when you know when to start — and when to stop.

hhbf-our responsible gaming policy stands on three core pillars: Awareness (understanding your own behavior), Controls (setting limits) and Support (seeking help when needed). Together, these three pillars form the foundation of a healthy and sustainable gaming experience.

Remember

Gaming is never a solution to financial problems. hhbf always advises — never bet more than you can afford to lose.

Online gaming in Bangladesh is becoming a rapidly growing form of entertainment. From young people to middle-aged adults — many are spending time on it. However, with this growth comes an increasing need for responsibility. hhbf takes this responsibility very seriously.

2. Core Principles of Responsible Gaming

hhbf-we recommend following a few core principles for responsible play. Sticking to these will keep gaming a positive experience.

  • Set a budget: Decide in advance how much money you'll spend per session. Don't exceed that limit.
  • Control your time: Set a limit on how long you'll play daily or weekly. Always prioritize family, work, and health.
  • Keep your emotions in check: Avoid playing when angry, frustrated, or stressed. Making good decisions is difficult in these states.
  • Don't try to win back lost money: "Chasing losses" is a dangerous habit. If you're on a losing streak, step away and take a break.
  • Don't put too much emphasis on winning: Accept that you won't always win. View gaming as entertainment.
  • Never play under the influence of alcohol or substances: Judgment is impaired in this state, which can lead to harmful decisions.
  • Take regular breaks: Playing for long stretches causes mental fatigue. Take at least 10-15 minute breaks every hour.
Characteristics of a Healthy Gamer

A healthy gamer sees gaming as a way to spend leisure time. They play within set limits, stay calm when losing, and balance gaming with time spent with family and friends.

3. Signs of Problem Gaming

Often, we don't realize when gaming is becoming a problem until it already is. hhbf Please stay aware of the signs below. If several of them apply to you, it's important to take action immediately.

Where Does Your Gaming Risk Stand?

Gaming risk can be divided into three levels. Understanding which level you're at helps you make informed decisions.

Remember, whatever level you're at — setting limits and staying aware is always beneficial. hhbf-our responsible gaming tools are designed for players at every level.

Low Risk — Recreational Gamer
Plays within set budget, can stop on time, gaming doesn't affect other parts of life.
Medium Risk — Caution Required
Occasionally exceed limits, sometimes want to recover lost money. Set limits now.
High Risk — Help Needed
You've lost control of your gaming and it's affecting your finances or relationships. Activate self-exclusion now and seek support.

Responsible Gaming Q&A

Yes, you can lower your limits at any time—it takes effect immediately. However, increasing limits involves a 72-hour cooling-off period, giving you time to reconsider your decision.

When you activate self-exclusion, your account balance will remain secure. After the exclusion period ends, you can request a withdrawal through support.

A cooling-off period is a short-term break — from 24 hours up to 30 days. Self-exclusion is long-term — from 6 months to permanent. After a cooling-off period, your account reopens automatically; with self-exclusion, it does not.

Talk to them with empathy, without judgment. If you contact hhbf support, we can review the account at a third party's request. Encourage them to seek professional mental health support.

Yes, hhbf uses automated monitoring systems. If a user's gaming pattern reaches risky levels, our team proactively reaches out and offers support.

At set intervals, you'll receive a pop-up notification showing your total session time and a summary of wins and losses. This helps you make informed decisions as you play.
