Play Smart,
Stay in Control with bg11
bg11 believes that betting should be fun, entertaining, and always within your means. Our Responsible Gaming programme gives every player in Bangladesh the tools, information, and support needed to keep gambling a positive experience — not a harmful one.
Our Core Commitments
How bg11 Supports Responsible Play
Six principles that guide the way bg11 protects every player across Bangladesh — from Dhaka to Chittagong, Sylhet to Cox's Bazar.
21+ Age Restriction
bg11 is strictly for adults aged 21 and above. We verify the age of every player during the registration and KYC process. Any account found to belong to an under-age individual is suspended immediately and all funds are returned to the source payment method.
Deposit Limits
Players can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from their bg11 account settings. Once a limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Increasing a limit requires a 24-hour cooling-off period before it takes effect.
Session Time Reminders
bg11 can alert you when you have been logged in and playing for a set amount of time. Regular session reminders help you stay aware of how long you have been gaming and make deliberate choices about whether to continue or take a break.
Time-Out / Cool-Down
If you need a short break from betting, bg11's time-out feature lets you pause your account for 24 hours, 48 hours, one week, or one month. During a time-out, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. The feature activates within minutes of your request.
Self-Exclusion
Players who feel they need a longer break can request self-exclusion for periods of six months, one year, or five years. bg11 will permanently close the account for the chosen duration. We take self-exclusion requests very seriously and process them within one business day.
24/7 Support Access
Our dedicated player safety support team is available around the clock via live chat, email, and WhatsApp. If you or someone you know is experiencing gambling-related difficulties, reach out at any time — our team is trained to provide compassionate, non-judgmental guidance.
Know the Warning Signs
Is Gambling Becoming a Problem?
Most people who use bg11 enjoy betting as a form of entertainment — watching cricket, cheering on BPL teams, and having a stake in the game. But for a small number of players, gambling can start to have a negative impact on finances, relationships, and mental wellbeing.
bg11 encourages all players to regularly check in with themselves and honestly assess whether their gambling habits remain healthy. The warning signs below are internationally recognised indicators that gambling may be becoming harmful. If you identify with two or more of these signs, we strongly encourage you to use our responsible gaming tools or contact our support team immediately.
Remember: Recognising a problem early makes it significantly easier to address. There is no shame in asking for help — it is the responsible and courageous thing to do. bg11's support team treats all responsible gaming enquiries with complete confidentiality.
Betting More Than You Can Afford
Regularly depositing money that was earmarked for rent, groceries, utility bills, or other essential expenses in order to fund gambling sessions.
Chasing Losses
Placing additional bets immediately after a loss in an attempt to win back the money you just lost, rather than accepting the outcome and stepping away.
Difficulty Stopping
Repeatedly telling yourself "one more bet" and being unable to stop your session despite intending to do so, or feeling restless or irritable when not betting.
Hiding Your Gambling
Concealing the amount of time or money you spend on bg11 from family members, friends, or colleagues because you are concerned about their reaction.
Borrowing to Fund Gambling
Taking out loans, using credit, or borrowing money from friends or family specifically to fund gambling activity on bg11 or any other platform.
Gambling Affecting Your Relationships
Finding that the time, money, or mental energy spent on gambling is causing tension, conflict, or neglect in your personal or professional relationships.
Using Gambling to Escape Stress
Turning to betting as a primary way to cope with anxiety, depression, work stress, family problems, or other emotional difficulties rather than as entertainment.
Player Safety Tools
Take Control of Your bg11 Experience
bg11 provides a full suite of practical tools that put you in charge of your gambling behaviour. All tools are available directly from your account settings — no waiting, no paperwork.
Deposit Limits
Cap the total amount you can deposit within a set time period.
- Choose daily, weekly, or monthly limit
- Set any amount from ৳500 upward
- Limit activates immediately
- Increases require 24-hour wait
- Decreases take effect instantly
Session Reminders

- Set reminder at 30, 60, or 120 mins

- Account locked within minutes
- Cannot log in or deposit during time-out
- Pending withdrawals still processed

Self-Exclusion
Permanently close your account for an extended period if gambling has become a serious concern.

- Processed within one business day

- Account balance withdrawn first
- Contact [email protected] to request
Reality Check: bg11 also provides an optional Reality Check feature. When enabled, a pop-up appears at intervals you select (every 30, 60, or 90 minutes) showing you how long you have been playing, how much you have deposited in the current session, and your net session result. This transparent snapshot helps you make informed decisions in real time rather than losing track of time and spend.
Returning after Self-Exclusion: When a self-exclusion period expires, your bg11 account will not automatically reopen. You must contact our support team and go through a brief wellbeing check before your account is reinstated. This deliberate friction gives you an extra moment to reflect before returning to the platform. bg11 may decline reinstatement if there is reason to believe continued play would not be in your best interest.
Self-Assessment
Ask Yourself These Questions
Honest self-reflection is the first step toward healthy gambling. The questions below are adapted from widely recognised responsible gambling assessment tools. Take a quiet moment to consider each one genuinely.
If you answer "yes" or "sometimes" to three or more of these questions, bg11 recommends that you use our deposit limits or time-out tools, or speak with a member of our player safety team. There is absolutely no judgement — only support.
1 Have you ever spent more money on gambling than you originally planned to in a single session?
2 Have you ever felt the need to bet larger amounts to get the same level of excitement or enjoyment?
3 Have you ever tried to cut back on gambling but found it difficult or impossible to do so?
4 Have you ever felt anxious, irritable, or low in mood when you were unable to gamble?
5 Have you ever used gambling as a way to avoid thinking about personal problems or to relieve feelings of stress?
6 Have you ever lied to family members or friends about how much time or money you spend gambling?
7 Has gambling ever caused you to miss work, studies, family obligations, or other important responsibilities?
8 Have you ever asked someone for money — or considered doing so — specifically to fund gambling activity?
Three or more "yes" answers? Please reach out to our support team at [email protected] or use the live chat on bg11.io. We are here to help — not judge. You can also request an immediate time-out or self-exclusion through your account settings right now.

Gambling Responsibly: The bg11 Principles
bg11 operates on the core belief that gambling should always be a form of entertainment — never a financial strategy, never an escape, and never something that causes harm. The following principles define what responsible gaming means to us:
Only bet what you can afford to lose. Before depositing, decide on a fixed entertainment budget — the amount you are genuinely comfortable spending regardless of the outcome. Treat it as you would a cinema ticket or a restaurant meal: money spent on an enjoyable experience, not an investment.
Keep time in check. Set a time limit before you start your session and stick to it. Use bg11's session reminder feature to help. Walking away when the time is up — whether you are winning or losing — is the hallmark of a disciplined and healthy approach to betting.
Never chase losses. A losing streak is a normal part of gambling. The worst response to a loss is to place a larger bet to try to recover it quickly. Accept the outcome, take a break, and return another day with a clear head and a fresh budget.
Understanding Odds and Game Outcomes
A crucial part of responsible gaming is understanding how betting and casino games actually work. bg11 is committed to transparency about the nature of all games and sports betting markets on the platform.
The house always has an edge. Every casino game — including slots, live roulette, blackjack, and baccarat — is designed with a built-in statistical advantage for the house, known as the Return to Player (RTP) or house edge. This means that over a large number of plays, the platform will collect more than it pays out. Winning is possible in the short term, but the long-term mathematical expectation for the player is always negative.
Sports betting involves knowledge and chance. Cricket betting, including BPL and T20 markets, involves skill in reading form, conditions, and statistics — but also a significant element of unpredictability. Even well-researched bets can lose. bg11 encourages players to treat sports betting as an informed hobby, not a reliable income source.
No system guarantees a win. Betting systems that claim to guarantee profit — such as the Martingale system or any progressive staking strategy — do not overcome the mathematical house edge and can lead to rapid, large losses. bg11 recommends flat staking within a pre-set budget.
