🛡️ Player Wellbeing

Responsible Gaming at ek22

ek22 believes that gaming should be an enjoyable form of entertainment — never a source of stress, financial hardship, or harm. This page outlines the tools, policies, and support systems in place to help every player on our platform stay in full control of their gaming activity.

Self-Exclusion Available
Session Time Limits
Deposit Caps
24/7 Support

Important Notice: If you feel that gambling is negatively affecting your finances, relationships, mental health, or daily life, please contact our support team immediately at [email protected]. Help is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on Bangladesh Standard Time (BST, UTC+6). You can also self-exclude from ek22 at any time — see the Self-Exclusion section below for full details.

Gaming Should Always Be Fun

At ek22, responsible gaming is not a compliance checkbox — it is a core part of how we operate and how we treat every player on our platform. We understand that for the vast majority of our members across Bangladesh, gaming is a recreational activity enjoyed in moderation. However, we also recognise that for a minority of players, gambling can become problematic, and we take our responsibility to those individuals seriously.

ek22 provides a comprehensive suite of responsible gaming tools that are available to every registered member at no cost and without penalty. These tools are designed to put you firmly in control of your own gaming activity — allowing you to set the limits that are right for you before any issues arise, rather than after. We strongly encourage all players to make use of these features proactively, regardless of whether they currently feel their gaming is problematic.

The responsible gaming tools and policies described on this page apply to all ek22 products, including cricket betting, live casino games, slots, baseball betting, and all other gaming categories available on the ek22 platform. If you have any questions about these features or need help activating them, our support team is available around the clock.

18+

Adults Only

The ek22 platform is strictly for players aged 18 years and above. Age verification is mandatory for all registered accounts.

Your Responsible Gaming Toolkit

Every ek22 member has direct access to the following responsible gaming features from their account dashboard — free of charge, effective immediately upon activation.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum deposit amount on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once your chosen limit is reached, no further deposits will be accepted until the limit period resets. Reductions take effect immediately; increases require a 7-day cooling-off period before they apply.

Instant Activation
Session Time Limits

Define the maximum amount of time you want to spend in a single gaming session. When your session limit is reached, you will receive a clear on-screen notification and be prompted to log out. This tool is particularly useful for players who find it easy to lose track of time during extended play.

Always Available
Time-Out Period

Take a short break from gaming by activating a time-out of 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out your account remains open but you cannot place any bets, make deposits, or access games. The time-out takes effect immediately and cannot be reversed before the period expires.

Immediate Effect
Self-Exclusion

Choose to exclude yourself from the ek22 platform for a fixed period of 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, or 5 years, or on a permanent basis. Self-exclusion blocks all access to your account, prevents new account registrations, and suppresses all marketing communications for the duration of the exclusion.

Strongest Protection
Loss Limits

Cap the maximum amount you are willing to lose over a defined period — daily, weekly, or monthly. Once your loss limit is reached, your account will be restricted from placing further bets for the remainder of that period. This tool helps you stay within a budget you are genuinely comfortable with.

Budget Control
Marketing Opt-Out

If you find that promotional offers, bonus notifications, or marketing messages from ek22 are influencing you to play more than you intend, you can opt out of all marketing communications at any time. This will take effect within 24 hours and does not affect your ability to use the platform or claim standard account bonuses.

Available Anytime

Problem Gambling Self-Assessment

If you answer "yes" to two or more of the following questions, it may be a sign that your gambling habits warrant a closer look. We encourage honest reflection — there is no judgment, only support.

1

Have you ever spent more money or time gambling than you originally planned in a single session?

2

Have you ever borrowed money, sold personal items, or used funds set aside for household expenses in order to gamble?

3

Do you find yourself thinking about gambling frequently when you are not playing, or feel an urge to return to the platform shortly after a loss?

4

Has gambling caused arguments with family members, affected your work or studies, or led you to neglect other responsibilities?

5

Have you tried to reduce or stop your gambling but found it difficult or impossible to do so on your own?

6

Do you gamble as a way of escaping stress, anxiety, depression, or other difficult emotions rather than for entertainment?

If you answered yes to two or more questions: Please reach out to our support team at [email protected] or activate self-exclusion immediately. You do not need to be in crisis to ask for help — early intervention leads to the best outcomes.

The 18+ Rule at ek22

ek22 operates a strict 18+ only policy across all products and services. No person under the age of 18 years is permitted to register an account, make a deposit, place a bet, or participate in any game on the ek22 platform. This is a firm, non-negotiable rule, and its enforcement is a top priority for our team.

All new registrations on ek22 are subject to an age declaration at the point of sign-up. In addition, ek22 may request identity verification documents at any stage, including government-issued photo ID such as a National Identity Card (NID), passport, or driving licence, to confirm that the account holder is aged 18 or above. Accounts where age verification cannot be completed will be suspended until the required documents are provided and verified.

If you are a parent or guardian and you suspect that a child in your household has accessed or registered on the ek22 platform, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. We will investigate the matter as a priority and take all appropriate action, including closing the account and returning any funds deposited.

Parental Controls Tip: If you share a computer, tablet, or mobile phone with children, we recommend enabling parental control software and ensuring your ek22 account is password-protected and not set to auto-login. Do not share your ek22 account credentials with anyone. For additional guidance on keeping children safe online, visit our FAQ page.
