Gaming is for entertainment — not to cope with stress. Spribe wants you to always stay in control. On this page, you'll find responsible gaming tools, tips, and support resources all in one place.
Awareness Is Half the Solution
Most people game purely for entertainment — a bit of excitement, a way to pass the time, or a way to enjoy a cricket match even more. That's perfectly normal, and as long as it stays within healthy limits, there's nothing wrong with it.
Sometimes, though, gaming can gradually slip beyond habit and become something you can no longer control. It doesn't happen overnight — the situation shifts slowly over weeks or months. Spribe believes that recognising this change early makes it much easier to manage.
Responsible gaming doesn't mean giving up gaming — it means making your own informed decisions, setting limits in advance, and keeping gaming as a small, enjoyable part of your life. Spribe is here to support you in doing exactly that.
Many people in Bangladesh game without telling family or friends — and that's perfectly fine. But if you feel a growing need to hide it, or feel unsettled whenever you stop, that's a signal worth paying attention to.
Gaming should always be your choice — playing because you want to, not because you can't walk away without a win. Once you can tell the difference, you're already halfway there.
Read through the questions below. If you find yourself saying "yes" to even a few, take a moment to pause.
After losing a bet, do you feel the urge to place a bigger one to "win it back"?
Do you keep exceeding your gaming budget — and find yourself surprised by it afterwards?
Are you finding it hard to focus on urgent family matters or work because gaming keeps pulling your attention away?
Are you hiding the amount you game or how much you spend from the people close to you?
Do you feel restless, irritable, or empty when you're not playing?
Have you tried to stop gaming but kept falling back into it?
Are you spending money on gaming that should be going toward everyday living expenses?
Two or more "Yes" answers mean: This may be a sign that things are heading in the wrong direction. Use the tools below or reach out to support directly.
You can enable any of these tools at any time from your account settings — free of charge
Set a limit on how much BDT you can deposit daily, weekly, or monthly. Once the limit is reached, the system automatically blocks further deposits.
Decide how long you want to play each day. When your time is up, you'll receive a warning and your session will automatically end after the set period.
If you feel like you need a breather, take a gaming break ranging from 1 day to 6 weeks. During this period, both deposits and betting are suspended.
For a longer break, you can opt for self-exclusion ranging from 6 months to 5 years. During this period, logging into your account is completely disabled.
Set a limit on the maximum amount you stake per bet. This tool is highly effective for keeping the urge to place large bets in check.
After a set amount of time, a pop-up appears letting you know how long you've been playing and how much you've spent. A simple way to stay aware.
Recognizing these signs early makes it possible to get help at the right time
Chasing losses by placing bigger bets to recover what you've lost is the most common sign of problematic gaming.
If you find yourself increasingly hiding how much you game, how often you lose, or how much you spend from family or friends, that's a warning sign.
If you find yourself using money meant for rent, your child's school fees, or medical expenses on gaming, seek help immediately.
Feeling irritable, restless, or low when you're not gaming — that's a sign of psychological dependency.
If gaming is starting to strain your relationships with family or loved ones, that's a sign it's time to pay attention.
You've decided to cut back or stop gaming, but you keep failing to follow through. That's the most important warning sign of all.
A Few Simple but Effective Habits
Responsible gaming starts with an honest admission: gaming is entertainment, not a source of income. Many people think, "Just a little more time or money and I can turn things around." In the long run, that mindset is the most dangerous one of all.
Spribe recommends setting a fixed monthly gaming budget — an amount you can afford to lose without it affecting your life. Once that amount is gone, stop gaming for the rest of the month. Think of it like a movie ticket: a set cost for entertainment, nothing more.
Before you start a session, decide how long you'll play. Tell yourself "I'll play for one hour today," then set a session timer. When the time is up, log out — whether you're winning or losing.
Taking breaks during gaming sessions is good practice. Get up, drink some water, take a short walk. Sitting in front of a screen for too long makes you lose track of time and weakens your ability to make clear decisions.
Pause after a big loss or a big win. The urge to "get revenge" after losing or to "push your luck" after winning can both lead to poor decisions. Keep a cool head before you act.
Important: Never game with borrowed money or funds that belong to someone else. Placing bets with money you don't have makes problems escalate much faster.
Feeling like you need some distance? Here's how to do it:
Click the profile icon in the top right corner and select "Settings" or "Account".
This section brings together all responsible gaming tools in one place.
Choose a Cooling-Off period for short-term breaks or Self-Exclusion for the long term — whichever suits your needs.
1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 6 months, 1 year, or 5 years — whatever you need.
The system asks you to confirm on two separate screens to make sure there are no mistakes.
Once the exclusion is active, a confirmation will be sent to your registered email. It cannot be cancelled before the period ends.
Need help: If you need assistance setting things up, reach out via support chat — they'll guide you through the entire process.
If your own tools aren't enough, seeking outside help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
If your spouse, parents, or siblings express concern about your gaming, take a moment to really listen to what they're saying.
Missing EMI payments, growing debt, or struggling to make ends meet at the end of the month — if gaming is behind it, please seek help.
Struggling to focus at work or falling behind in your studies — if gaming is the reason, it's time to take notice.
Gaming late into the night, losing sleep, skipping meals — don't ignore what your body is telling you.
If you have any concerns about your gaming, you can get help without judgment. In live chat, type "I need responsible gaming support" — our specially trained team will respond right away.

Small Changes, Big Results
Responsible gaming is really a mindset — build the right habits and gaming will always stay where it belongs: entertainment.
Set Your Budget First: Set your gaming budget at the start of each month — think of it the same way you would any other entertainment expense.
Treat Winnings as a Bonus: Winning is a bonus — the real purpose is the enjoyment of playing.
Don't Play When You're in a Bad Mood: If you're feeling angry, sad, or stressed, step away from gaming.
Set Up Your Tools in Advance: Set up a deposit limit and session timer before problems arise.
Check In with Yourself Regularly: Once a month, ask yourself — is gaming still entertainment, or has it started to feel like an obligation?
