Safe Play Commitment

Responsible Gaming
at pkr98

pkr98 believes that gaming should be entertaining, not harmful. Our responsible gaming framework is built around giving every player in Pakistan — from Karachi to Peshawar — the tools, awareness, and support needed to stay in control of their play at all times. We are committed to providing a safe, fair, and transparent environment where fun never comes at the cost of your wellbeing.

Gambling involves real financial risk. Online casino games and sports betting — including cricket betting, slots, Money Wheel, and Fishing Yi Lu Fa — are forms of entertainment that carry the possibility of losing money. pkr98 strongly advises all players to set firm personal budgets before playing, to never chase losses, and to treat gaming as leisure — not as a source of income. If at any point gambling stops feeling fun, please use our tools or contact our support team immediately.


Six Pillars of Safe Play

pkr98's responsible gaming programme is built on six core principles. Every feature we build and every policy we enforce comes back to these commitments.

Strict 21+ Age Policy

pkr98 enforces a hard minimum age of 21 years across all real-money gaming features. Age verification is mandatory for every player before any withdrawal is processed. Accounts suspected of being underage are suspended immediately and reviewed.

Player-Set Deposit Limits

Every pkr98 player can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits from their account dashboard. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased for 24 hours — giving you real protection, not just a tickbox.

Self-Exclusion Tools

Players who need a break can self-exclude for a chosen period — 30 days, 90 days, 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. During self-exclusion, your account is locked and all promotional communications are suspended. Our team processes self-exclusion requests within 24 hours.

Session Time Controls

pkr98 allows players to set session time reminders and hard session limits. You can configure alerts at 30, 60, or 90-minute intervals so you always know how long you have been playing — a simple but powerful tool to keep gaming in perspective.

Loss Limit Settings

In addition to deposit limits, pkr98 players can set daily, weekly, or monthly loss limits in PKR. When your net losses reach the limit you have set, your access to real-money gaming is paused until the limit period resets — protecting you from chasing losses.

24/7 Support & Referrals

Our support team is available around the clock via live chat on the pkr98 platform. If you or someone you know is showing signs of problem gambling, our team can guide you to appropriate resources and activate protective tools on your account immediately.


What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means enjoying casino games and sports betting — like cricket betting during PSL season or spinning the reels on your favourite slot — as a form of entertainment, within limits you have consciously chosen for yourself. For the vast majority of players, pkr98 is exactly that: a fun, exciting platform where they deposit an amount they are comfortable losing, enjoy the games, and then log out.

Problem gambling, however, is a real condition that can affect anyone — regardless of age, income level, or how long they have been playing. It occurs when gambling stops being a leisure activity and starts causing harm: financial stress, relationship problems, anxiety, or an inability to stop even when you want to. Research indicates that problem gambling affects a small but significant percentage of regular players globally, and Pakistan is no exception.

pkr98 takes this issue seriously. We operate under an internationally issued gaming licence that includes responsible gaming obligations — not just as a regulatory requirement, but because we genuinely care about the players who use our platform. Every feature in our responsible gaming toolkit exists because a real player in Lahore, Karachi, Faisalabad, or Islamabad might need it.

Our commitment in plain terms: pkr98 will never send promotional offers designed to encourage excessive play. We will never make it harder to set limits than to remove them. And we will always prioritise your wellbeing over short-term revenue — because a platform that protects its players is one that players trust long-term.

Signs of Problem Gambling

01

Do you find yourself spending more money on gambling than you originally planned or can afford to lose?

02

Have you ever tried to win back money you have lost by placing more bets — commonly known as "chasing losses"?

03

Do you feel irritable, anxious, or restless when you try to cut down or stop gambling?

04

Has gambling ever caused problems with your family, friends, job, or finances that you have ignored or hidden?

05

Do you sometimes feel that gambling is the only way to escape stress, worry, or difficult emotions?

06

Have you borrowed money, sold possessions, or neglected bills in order to fund gambling activity?

If you answered yes to two or more of the above questions, we strongly encourage you to take a break, activate a self-exclusion on your pkr98 account, and speak with our support team. You can also seek help via international responsible gaming resources such as GamCare (gamcare.org.uk) and Gamblers Anonymous (gamblersanonymous.org).


Player Protection Tools

All of the following tools are available to every registered pkr98 player at no charge, accessible directly from your account dashboard at any time.

Deposits
Deposit Limits

Set maximum deposit amounts on a daily, weekly, or monthly cycle in PKR. Limit reductions take effect immediately. Limit increases require a mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period before they apply — ensuring you cannot impulsively raise your own limits in the heat of the moment.

Losses
Loss Limits

Define the maximum net loss amount you are comfortable with over a chosen period. When your real-money losses reach this threshold, your gaming access is paused for the remainder of the period. Loss limits can be set in your account settings under the "Responsible Gaming" tab.

Sessions
Session Time Limits

Set a maximum continuous session duration. When your session reaches the time limit you have configured, you will receive a clear on-screen notification and your session will be paused. You can also enable recurring 30 or 60-minute reminders showing your total time played.

Cool-Off
Cooling-Off Periods

Need a short break without fully self-excluding? Activate a cooling-off period of 24 hours, 48 hours, or 7 days. During a cooling-off period your account is temporarily suspended for real-money play. You can still log in to check your balance or request a withdrawal.

Wagers
Wager / Bet Limits

Set maximum bet sizes per individual wager or spin, across all games including cricket betting, slots, Money Wheel, and Fishing Yi Lu Fa. Wager limits prevent high-stake impulsive bets and are a particularly useful tool during high-energy live sporting events like PSL matches.

Exclusion
Self-Exclusion

The strongest protection tool available. Request self-exclusion for 30 days, 90 days, 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. During self-exclusion your account is fully locked, all marketing is stopped, and reactivation is subject to a mandatory review and cooling-off period. Contact support to activate.

How to access these tools: Log in to your pkr98 account → navigate to your Account Dashboard → select the "Responsible Gaming" tab. All limit-setting and self-exclusion tools are available there. Alternatively, contact our 24/7 live chat support team and they will assist you in activating any tool immediately.

Strictly 21+ — No Exceptions

pkr98 enforces a strict minimum age of 21 years for all real-money gaming activity on our platform. This is not a soft guideline — it is a hard policy backed by mandatory KYC identity verification that every player must complete before making their first withdrawal.

During KYC, players are required to submit a valid CNIC or passport, along with supporting documents as required. Our verification system checks the date of birth against the submitted documentation. Any account where the player's age cannot be confirmed as 21 or above is immediately suspended pending review.

If an underage player is found to have accessed the platform, their account is permanently closed. All deposits are returned to the original payment method (net of any activated bonuses). Any winnings accumulated are forfeited in full. pkr98 reserves the right to report instances of underage gambling to the relevant regulatory and law enforcement authorities.

Parents and guardians: Please ensure that children and young people in your household cannot access the pkr98 platform. Keep your login credentials private and enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on your account. If you believe a minor has accessed your account or registered their own, contact pkr98 support immediately via live chat.


Tips for Healthy Gaming

The following habits will help you keep gaming in its proper place — as entertainment, not an obligation.

✓

Set a budget before you start — decide the maximum amount in PKR you are comfortable losing before you open any game. Treat it like the cost of a night out, not an investment.

✓

Take regular breaks — step away from the screen every 45–60 minutes. Set a session timer in your pkr98 dashboard to remind yourself automatically.

✓

Only play with money you can afford to lose — never use rent money, savings, or borrowed funds. Only your disposable entertainment budget should be on the platform.

✓

Balance gaming with other activities — cricket betting during PSL season is exciting, but make sure you have other hobbies, social activities, and commitments that are unaffected by your gaming.

✗

Never chase losses — if you have reached your budget limit for the session, stop. Trying to win back lost money is the single most common path to problem gambling. Accept the loss and walk away.

✗

Do not gamble when emotional — avoid playing when you are stressed, upset, angry, or under the influence of alcohol. Emotional states impair decision-making and often lead to larger, riskier bets.

✗

Do not see gambling as income — slots, Money Wheel, and casino games are games of chance. There is no system or strategy that guarantees consistent winnings. The house always has a mathematical edge.

✗

Do not hide your gambling — if you feel the need to conceal how much time or money you are spending on pkr98 from people close to you, that is a clear signal to pause and reflect on your habits.
