Important Warning

Gambling can lead to financial difficulties. Only play with money you can afford to lose without it affecting your daily life. If you feel you are losing control of your gaming, seek help now.

1 What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible Gaming means treating gaming as a form of entertainment — not a way to solve financial problems. At 9kbd, we believe every player has the right to enjoy a safe environment. But when that enjoyment turns into addiction, it can become harmful to family life, finances, and mental health.

Responsible gaming isn't just about playing less — it's about playing with awareness. Deciding how much time you spend, how much money you wager, and when to take a break are all conscious choices that define responsible gaming. 9kbd is committed to supporting you every step of the way.

Our platform offers a range of tools and features to help you stay in control of your gaming habits. From deposit limits to self-exclusion — everything is designed with your protection in mind.

9kbd's responsible gaming policy is more than a list of rules — it's a reflection of our commitment to every user on our platform.

2 Core Principles of Safe Gaming

To ensure responsible gaming at 9kbd, we follow a set of core principles. Keeping to these principles means your gaming experience stays enjoyable and harm-free:

  • Play for entertainment only — don't treat it as a source of income.
  • Set a budget in advance and never exceed that limit.
  • Set a time limit — decide in advance how long you'll play each day.
  • Don't chase losses by placing bigger bets after a losing streak.
  • Don't let gaming interfere with time for family, friends, or work.
  • Never play with borrowed money or by dipping into your savings.
  • Avoid gaming when you're feeling stressed, sad, or angry.

Keep in mind: Winning and losing are both a natural part of gaming. Placing irrational bets in the hope of a win goes against the principles of responsible gaming.

3 Set Your Limits

The most effective way to game responsibly on 9kbd is to set limits in advance. Our platform offers several types of limits you can configure:

💰
Deposit Limit

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap. Once the limit is reached, deposits are automatically blocked.

⏱️
Session Time Limit

Set how long you want to play in a single session. After that time, the platform will remind you to take a break.

📉
Loss Limit

Set a limit on losses so that once you reach a certain amount, you are automatically prevented from playing further.

🎯
Bet Limit

Set a maximum stake limit for each individual bet.

Limits take effect immediately once set. However, if you wish to increase a limit, a cooling-off period applies — this helps prevent impulsive decisions made in the heat of the moment.

4 Signs of Gaming Addiction

Gaming addiction usually develops gradually, often without the person realizing it. If two or more of the following signs apply to you, it may be time to seek help:

  • Continuously increasing your bets in an attempt to recover lost funds.
  • Feeling restless, irritable, or angry when you are unable to game.
  • Hiding your gaming activity from family or friends.
  • Spending money on gaming by taking on debt or draining your savings.
  • Neglecting work, studies, or family responsibilities.
  • Repeatedly trying to stop gaming but failing each time.
  • Lying about or concealing your gaming from others.

If you notice these signs, don't wait — seek help now. Gaming addiction is a mental health condition; there is no shame in it. With the right support, full recovery is possible.

Self-Assessment

Ask yourself the following questions honestly:

1 How many times last month did you place bets beyond your budget?
2 Do you feel mentally uncomfortable when you cannot game?
3 Has anyone close to you ever expressed concern about your gaming habits?
4 Have you returned to gaming to cope with the distress of a loss?
5 Does stopping gaming feel impossible when you try?

If you answered "Yes" to 3 or more questions — reach out to the 9kbd support team right away.

5 Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is a powerful tool that helps you take a break from the 9kbd platform for a set period. It's not a sign of weakness — it's a courageous step toward taking care of yourself.

1

Contact Support

Request self-exclusion from the 9kbd support team via live chat or email.

2

Choose a Time Limit

30 days, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or permanent — choose the duration that works for you.

3

The account will be locked.

Your account will be automatically deactivated for the duration you set.

4

Reactivate After Expiry

Once the time limit expires, a cooling-off period will apply before your account can be reactivated.

During self-exclusion, you will not receive any promotional emails or offers. We fully respect your decision.

6 Minor Protection

9kbd is strictly for users aged 18 and above. We follow a rigorous age verification (KYC) process. As a parent, you can also take additional steps to protect your children:

  • Keep your device locked with a PIN or password.
  • After logging into the 9kbd app or website, sign out from your browser.
  • Never leave your login credentials where your children can access them.
  • Use parental control software that blocks gaming sites.
  • Educate your child about the risks of online gaming.

If you suspect a minor is using 9kbd, contact our support team immediately. We will take prompt action.

7 Where to Get Help

Seeking professional help is the most effective step toward overcoming a gaming problem. In addition to 9kbd's own support, help is also available through the following:

  • 9kbd Live Support: Report any gambling-related concerns through our 24/7 chat support.
  • Email Support: [email protected] — write to us with the details.
  • Family & Friends: Talk openly with the people close to you — they are your greatest source of support.
  • Mental Health Professionals: Consult an addiction specialist or counselor.
  • Online Resources: Seek guidance from international organizations such as Gamblers Anonymous or BeGambleAware.

Asking for help takes courage. 9kbd is always by your side — not just as a gaming platform, but as a responsible gaming partner.
