Gaming is for fun — not stress or harm. bodk believes every player should be able to enjoy themselves safely, mindfully, and within their own limits.
Start Gaming ResponsiblyOnline gaming is for adults 18 and over only. Gaming is for entertainment — not a source of income. Losses are always possible. Never bet more than you can afford to lose.
Responsible play means keeping gaming a healthy part of your life for entertainment — not making it the centre of your life. bodk believes gaming is truly enjoyable only when every player understands their financial limits, time, and state of mind.
People sometimes spend more time gaming in the hope of recovering lost money or relieving stress. This can gradually develop into an addiction. Our Responsible Play programme works to reduce that risk and keep players informed.
Bodk's Responsible Gaming policy is built on three core principles — Awareness, Regulation and Support. We want you to enjoy gaming — but never at the expense of your family, financial wellbeing, or mental health.
We don't just offer games — we're committed to keeping you safe. Every tool, limit, and support service is free and available at all times.
Problem gaming doesn't appear overnight. It develops gradually. Watch out for the following signs:
Betting beyond your means, borrowing money to play, or skipping bill payments to fund gaming.
Gaming for hours on end at the expense of work, family, or sleep — and being unable to stop.
Feeling restless, angry, or depressed after a loss; feeling uncomfortable when not playing.
Hiding gaming from family or friends, and tension in relationships.
If you notice even one of these signs in yourself, pause. Read the self-assessment section below or contact our support team.
The most effective way to play responsibly is to set your limits before you start. bodk gives you the tools to make those decisions for yourself.
| Limit Types | What it controls | Tips |
|---|---|---|
| Deposit Limit | Daily / Weekly / Monthly Deposit Amount | Stay Within Your Monthly Entertainment Budget |
| Bet Limits | Maximum bet amount per game | Reduces the risk of losing everything at once |
| Loss Limit | Maximum loss amount within a set time period | Prevents impulsive decisions after a loss |
| Session Time Limit | Extended Play Sessions | Take a Break Every Hour |
| Reality Check | Automatic Session Reminders | Reminds you how long you've played and how much you've spent |
Limits can be lowered at any time, but increasing them requires a 24–72 hour waiting period — this protects you from making impulsive decisions.
Bodk offers players a range of dedicated tools to help you manage your own gaming habits:
Pause your gaming for 1 day, 1 week, or 1 month. No bets can be placed on your account during this time.
Activate a long-term self-exclusion lasting from 6 months up to 5 years. Your account cannot be reactivated during this period.
View your full betting and transaction history. Easily track how much time and money you've spent.
You'll receive automatic notifications after a set period of play. A reminder like "You've been playing for 60 minutes" helps you know when to take a break.
Set the maximum amount you want to keep in your account. Any deposits beyond that limit will be blocked automatically.
Talk directly with our Bangla-speaking support team at any time. If you have concerns about your gaming, we're here to help.

Responsible play doesn't mean giving up gaming — it means building the right habits. Follow these tips:
Decide at the start of each month how much BDT you're willing to spend on gaming. Once that budget runs out, stop playing for the rest of the month.
Decide how long you'll play before you start. Set an alarm and stop when the time is up.
Gaming is primarily for entertainment. A win is a bonus — but even without one, remember you played for the fun of it.
"Chasing" losses by placing more bets to win back what you lost is the most dangerous habit. If you're losing, stop.
Playing for long stretches impairs your judgement. Step away every 45–60 minutes, drink some water, take a short walk.
Alcohol and strong emotions impair your judgment. Avoid gaming when you're drunk or feeling overwhelmed.
Let the people close to you know that you enjoy gaming. Hiding the habit only makes problems worse.
Reading, sports, spending time with friends — having other activities in your life helps reduce the risk of gaming addiction.
Withdraw when you have a big win. Instead of betting it all back, set some aside and keep it safe.
If something feels wrong, contact bodk support immediately or activate self-exclusion.
