Player Welfare First

pkww Responsible Gaming

At pkww, we believe that gambling should always be an entertaining activity — never a source of financial stress or personal harm. Our responsible gaming programme gives every player across Bangladesh the tools, knowledge, and support needed to stay in control of their experience.

Our Commitment to Safe Play

pkww has served players across Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, and Barisal for over six years. Throughout that time, responsible gaming has not been a compliance checkbox — it is a core part of how we operate. We understand that gambling carries real financial risk, and we take our duty of care to every registered player seriously.

Our responsible gaming framework is built around three principles: prevention (equipping players with tools before problems develop), early intervention (identifying warning signs and reaching out proactively), and support (connecting players who need help with the right resources quickly and without judgment).

Every feature described on this page is available free of charge to all pkww account holders. You do not need to be in crisis to use these tools — many of our most engaged players use deposit limits and session reminders as a matter of routine. Staying in control is always easier when you plan ahead.

Responsible Gaming Tools Available to Every Player

pkww provides a comprehensive suite of self-management tools that you can activate at any time from your account settings or by contacting our 24/7 support team. All tools take effect immediately upon request.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum deposit amount on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis to ensure your gambling spend stays within a budget you are comfortable with. Once a deposit limit is set, it cannot be increased for at least 72 hours — giving you a meaningful cooling-off period before any upward adjustment takes effect. Limits can be reduced immediately at any time.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum continuous play duration per session. When your session limit is reached, you will receive a clear on-screen notification and be logged out automatically. This feature helps prevent prolonged play sessions that can impair judgment and lead to decisions you might later regret. You can set session limits as short as 30 minutes.

Reality Checks

Enable periodic reality check notifications that appear during active play to remind you how long you have been playing and how much you have won or lost in the current session. These prompts — available at 15, 30, or 60-minute intervals — are designed to keep you grounded and help you make conscious, informed decisions about continuing or stopping.

Cooling-Off Period

Take a structured break from gambling without permanently closing your account. Cooling-off periods are available in durations of 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or 90 days. During a cooling-off period your account is temporarily suspended — you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. Your account balance is preserved and accessible when the period ends.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel that gambling is having a negative impact on your life, you can request a self-exclusion of 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanent exclusion. Self-exclusion is irrevocable for the chosen period — re-registration attempts will be blocked. Any remaining balance at the time of self-exclusion request will be returned to your verified payment method.

Loss Limits

Set a maximum net loss threshold for a defined daily, weekly, or monthly period. Once your loss limit is reached for that period, you will be automatically prevented from placing further bets until the period resets. Like deposit limits, loss limits can be reduced immediately but require a 72-hour waiting period before any increase can take effect.

Recognising the Warning Signs

Problem gambling can develop gradually. Most people who develop a gambling problem do not recognise the warning signs early enough to act before significant harm occurs. pkww strongly encourages all players to carry out an honest self-assessment on a regular basis.

If you recognise any of the patterns listed here in your own behaviour, we urge you to use one of the tools described above or to contact our support team immediately. Seeking help early is a sign of strength, not weakness — and our team is trained to respond with empathy and without judgment.

If you are experiencing gambling-related distress right now, please contact pkww support via live chat immediately. Our responsible gaming specialists are available around the clock, every day of the year.

Quick Self-Assessment Checklist

5
Have you concealed the amount of time or money you spend gambling from people close to you?
6

Practical Tips for Staying in Control

These evidence-based guidelines help players across Bangladesh maintain a healthy, balanced relationship with online gambling on the pkww platform.

Before depositing, decide on a fixed amount — the absolute maximum you are prepared to lose — and treat that amount as an entertainment expense, not an investment. This could be a weekly or monthly figure that reflects your disposable income after all essential costs are covered. Use pkww's deposit limit feature to enforce this budget automatically. Once the budget is spent, stop for the period regardless of the outcome. Never dip into savings, borrow money, or use funds earmarked for household expenses.

Prolonged gambling sessions distort your sense of time and money. Before starting any session, decide how long you will play and set a session limit in your account settings to enforce it automatically. Take regular breaks — step away from the screen, get some fresh air, and do something unrelated to gambling. This simple habit has a significant impact on maintaining perspective and making clear-headed decisions. Aim to keep individual sessions under two hours.

Chasing losses is one of the most dangerous patterns in gambling behaviour. When you have reached your loss limit for a session, stop completely — do not increase your stakes, open a new game, or make a further deposit in an attempt to recover what you lost. Every spin, every cricket bet, and every hand is an independent event. The platform has no obligation to "pay back" past losses. Accepting a loss as the cost of entertainment is the single most important mindset shift in responsible gambling.

Gambling under the influence of stress, anxiety, anger, grief, or any intoxicating substance severely impairs your decision-making and dramatically increases the risk of harmful behaviour. If you have had a difficult day, received bad news, or are experiencing strong emotions of any kind, this is not the right time to gamble. Similarly, if you find yourself using gambling as a way to escape or cope with emotional distress, please speak to our support team — this is a recognised warning sign that deserves immediate attention.

Secrecy around gambling is a red flag. Healthy recreational gambling does not need to be hidden from the people close to you. If you feel you need to conceal how much time or money you spend on pkww from your family or friends, that is a signal worth reflecting on seriously. Trusted people in your life can provide an important external perspective and can encourage you to use self-management tools or seek further support if they are concerned about your behaviour. Openness protects you.

Gambling should be one leisure activity among many — not your primary or sole source of entertainment and stimulation. Maintain a balanced lifestyle by investing time in family, friendships, physical activity, work or study, and other hobbies you enjoy. Players who rely on gambling as their main recreational outlet are significantly more likely to develop problematic patterns. During major cultural events in Bangladesh — Eid celebrations, Pohela Boishakh, Victory Day — make sure gambling does not crowd out time spent with family and community.

Protecting Young People in Your Household

If you share a device with younger family members — children, teenagers, or young adults under 21 — it is your responsibility as an account holder to prevent them from accessing your pkww account. pkww recommends the following practical steps to protect minors in your household:

  • Never save your pkww login credentials in a shared browser or on a shared device.
  • Always log out of your pkww account when you have finished a session on a shared device.
  • Enable a device lock screen or biometric authentication on any device you use to access pkww.
  • Consider installing parental control software on shared household devices to restrict access to gambling sites.
  • Talk openly with young people in your household about the risks of gambling and why age restrictions exist.
  • If you suspect a minor has accessed your account, report it immediately to our support team.
Account Security: pkww will never contact you to request your password. If you believe your account credentials have been shared with or accessed by a minor, contact our support team immediately to secure your account and review activity.

Our Age Verification Process

Registration Screening
Every applicant must declare their date of birth at registration. Accounts flagged as potentially underage are suspended pending verification before any access is granted.
Document Verification (KYC)
All players must submit a valid National ID Card (NID), passport, or birth certificate for identity and age verification before deposits or withdrawals can be processed.
Ongoing Monitoring
Our compliance team conducts periodic account reviews. Any account where age verification cannot be confirmed will be suspended until documentation is provided and reviewed.
Zero Tolerance for Underage Access
Any account confirmed to be registered by a person under 21 will be permanently closed, all funds returned to the source payment method, and the case referred to our compliance department for review.
