Self-Control Tools Available  |  24/7 Support

Our Commitment: dewa288 supports responsible gaming and provides a range of tools to help you manage your gaming activity. Your well-being is our top priority.

What is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means you play in a safe, controlled way that does not negatively impact your personal life, finances, mental health, or relationships. It's about maintaining a balance between entertainment and daily responsibilities.

At dewa288, we believe that an online entertainment platform should be a place to relax and have fun, not a source of stress or financial problems. That's why we provide the information, tools and resources needed to ensure your experience is always positive.

Healthy gaming is when you can control the time and money spent, play for enjoyment and not as a way to solve financial problems, and can stop at any time without feeling pressured.

Signs of Problem Gaming

It's important to recognise the early signs that gaming may be becoming problematic. If you or someone you know is experiencing any of the following situations, it may be time to seek help:

1

Spending Beyond Your Means

Using money meant for basic needs like rent, bills, or food to play.

2

Neglecting Responsibilities

Neglecting work, family, or other commitments because of being too focused on gaming.

3

Chasing Losses

Continuing to play in hopes of recovering money that has been lost.

4

Borrowing Money to Play

Borrowing money from family, friends, or financial institutions to continue playing.

5

Hiding Activity

Lying to family or friends about the amount of time and money spent.

6

Feeling Anxious or Stressed

Feeling anxious, angry or depressed when unable to play or trying to stop.

7

Loss of Interest in Other Activities

No longer interested in hobbies, social activities, or time with family.

8

Playing to Escape

Using gaming as a way to escape from personal problems or negative emotions.

If you're experiencing 3 or more of the above signs, We strongly encourage you to take a break and consider speaking with a professional counsellor.

Self-Control Tools at dewa288

We provide various tools you can use at any time to control your gaming activity. All these tools are accessible through your account:

Deposit Limit

Set the maximum amount you can deposit within a daily, weekly, or monthly period. These limits help you control spending.

Loss Limit

Set a maximum loss limit to ensure you don't lose more than you can afford. The system will stop gameplay as soon as the limit is reached.

Session Time Limit

Set a maximum duration for your gaming session. The platform will remind you when the time limit is nearly reached.

Temporary Break

Take a break from the platform for a set period — 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days or longer. Your account will be temporarily locked during this time.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel the need to exclude yourself completely, you can apply for self-exclusion for a minimum period of 6 months. This decision cannot be reversed during that period.

Promotion Control

Choose not to receive marketing communications, promotions, or bonuses if you feel they encourage you to play more often.

How to Activate: Log in to your account, go to "Account Settings" > "Responsible Gaming" and choose the tool that's right for you.

Tips for Playing Smart

Here are some practical guidelines that can help you maintain control and ensure gaming remains an enjoyable activity:

  • Set a Budget: Decide the amount of money you're willing to spend before you start playing, and stick to that budget.
  • Don't Chase Losses: If you lose, accept it and stop. Trying to chase losses will usually only make things worse.
  • Play for Entertainment: Don't view gaming as a way to generate income or solve financial problems.
  • Take Regular Breaks: Take breaks regularly while playing. Don't play for too long without rest.
  • Don't Play in an Emotional State: Avoid playing when you're feeling angry, sad, stressed or under the influence of alcohol.
  • Balance with Other Aspects of Life: Ensure gaming does not interfere with your work, family, health, or social relationships.
  • Use Control Tools: Take advantage of the deposit limits, loss limits and time limits provided by dewa288.
  • Talk to Others: If you feel gaming is becoming a problem, share it with trusted family or friends.

Self-Assessment Test

Answer the following questions honestly to assess whether your gaming habits are healthy. This is a guide only and not an official diagnosis.

1. Do you often think about gaming even when you're not playing?

2. Have you ever spent more than you planned?

3. Have you ever borrowed money to play?

4. Has gaming affected your work or personal relationships?

If most of your answers are "Yes" or "Often", you may need to seek professional support.
