What Is Responsible Gaming and Why It Matters
At db22, we want more than just to entertain — we want every member to stay healthy and happy. Responsible gaming means enjoying the experience within the boundaries of your financial means and time. When gaming starts causing stress rather than enjoyment, that's a sign something needs to change.
Online gaming is growing fast in Bangladesh. At db22, responsible gaming is not just a policy — it's a promise. We are committed to providing every member with a safe gaming experience.
The core principles of responsible gaming are: set a clear budget, stick to time limits, avoid chasing losses with bigger bets, and never treat gaming as a source of income. db22 supports members in upholding all of these principles.
All of db22's responsible gaming tools are completely free to use and can be activated at any time from your account settings.
Remember, gaming is a leisure activity. Never base major life decisions or financial plans on it. db22 always wants you to stay safe and happy.
Gaming Limit-Setting Tools
Db22 provides members with a range of practical tools to manage their own gaming habits. These tools are available in the Settings section of your account.
Deposit Limit
Set a maximum daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Once set, it cannot be increased before the designated time period has passed.
Session Time Limit
Set a maximum duration for each gaming session. You will be logged out automatically once the time limit is reached.
Loss Limit
Set a loss limit that stops you from placing further bets once a certain amount is lost. Protect yourself from emotionally driven overspending.
Cool-off Mode
Take a temporary gaming break ranging from 1 day to 6 weeks. You won't be able to log in to your account during this period.
Self-Exclusion
For extended breaks, you can fully close your account for a period of 6 months to 5 years.
Gaming History Report
View a detailed report of your gaming activity and stay informed about your own habits.
Using these tools is not a sign of weakness — it's a sign of maturity. db22 members who use these tools tend to enjoy gaming more sustainably in the long run.
Healthy budget planning
Financial planning is the most important part of responsible gaming. Before playing on db22, set yourself a realistic budget and stick to it strictly.
How to Set a Budget
- Set aside a small portion of what's left after covering all essential monthly expenses for gaming.
- Never let your gaming budget exceed 5% of your monthly income.
- Never use money set aside for household expenses, rent, food, or savings to gamble.
- Betting with borrowed money or funds you owe others is strictly prohibited.
- Don't try to win back lost money by placing more bets.
Remember — gaming is for entertainment, not income. If you start thinking you can support yourself through gaming, that's a serious warning sign.
What to do after a loss
Losing is a normal part of gaming. After a loss — stop, take a deep breath, and remind yourself that the money was set aside for entertainment. Chasing losses is the most dangerous behavior. db22 sends you cautionary messages in these moments and encourages you to take a break.
Assess Yourself
Ask yourself the questions below. If most of your answers are "yes", it's time to seek help.
Do you often overspend your budget and feel regret afterward?
After a loss, do you find yourself betting more to try to get that money back?
Is gaming affecting your sleep, work, or time with family?
Do you hide your gaming activity from family or friends?
Do you find it hard to stop gaming, or feel uncomfortable when you try?
Have you ever used emergency funds or savings to gamble?
Is gaming affecting your mood, mental health, or relationships?
If you answered "Yes" to three or more questions, please contact the db22 support team or consider the self-exclusion option.
