Gambling Should Always Be Fun

At 56bd, we believe that online betting and casino gaming should be an enjoyable leisure activity — nothing more, nothing less. For the overwhelming majority of our registered players across Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, and beyond, that is exactly what it is. But we also recognise that for a small number of people, gambling can become a problem, and we take that reality seriously.

Responsible gaming is not just a legal checkbox at 56bd — it is a core value woven into the design of the Platform. Every account comes equipped with practical tools that let you manage how you play, how much you spend, and how long you stay logged in. These tools are accessible directly from your account settings at any time, and our 24/7 support team is always available to help you use them.

This page explains the full suite of responsible gaming features available at 56bd, how to recognise the warning signs of problem gambling, how to seek help if you need it, and what our platform does behind the scenes to identify and support players who may be struggling. If you are concerned about your gambling right now, please scroll to the support section below or reach out to our support team via live chat immediately.

Important: The 56bd platform is strictly for adults aged 21 and above. If you are under 21 years of age, you must not register an account or access any gaming features. Age verification is mandatory for all withdrawal requests, and 56bd actively monitors for indicators of underage use.

Take Control of Your Play

56bd gives every registered player direct access to six powerful responsible gaming tools — no need to contact support to activate most of them. Simply visit your account settings to get started.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on the total amount you deposit into your 56bd account in BDT (৳). Once your chosen limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Limits can be reduced immediately; increases take 7 days to take effect to give you time to reconsider.

Account Settings

Loss Limits

Define the maximum amount in BDT (৳) you are willing to lose within a defined time period. When your net losses reach the limit you have set, the Platform will prevent further betting activity until the period expires. This is one of the most effective ways to stay within a budget you are comfortable with.

Account Settings

Session Time Limits

Choose how long a single gaming session can last before 56bd automatically logs you out. Options range from 30 minutes to 8 hours per session. At the halfway point and again five minutes before the limit is reached, the Platform will display a visible on-screen reminder of how long you have been playing.

Account Settings

Time-Out (Short Break)

Need a break from the Platform for a few days or weeks? The time-out feature suspends your account for a period of your choosing — from 24 hours up to 42 days. During a time-out, you cannot log in, place bets, or access any gaming features. The suspension lifts automatically when the period ends.

Instant Activation

Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is a longer-term measure for players who feel their gambling is becoming harmful. You can apply a self-exclusion of 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or 5 years. During this period your account is fully blocked and cannot be reopened under any circumstances until the exclusion period has expired and you formally request reinstatement.

Via Support Team

Reality Check Reminders

Enable periodic pop-up notifications that appear during active sessions to display your session duration, total bets placed, and net win/loss position. Reality checks help you maintain an accurate picture of your activity and encourage a mindful approach to gambling rather than playing on autopilot.

Account Settings

Recognising Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. Recognising the early warning signs in yourself — or in someone you care about — is the first and most important step toward getting help. The signs below are commonly associated with gambling becoming harmful.

If you identify with three or more of the signs listed here, we strongly encourage you to use one of the responsible gaming tools above or contact our support team directly. You can also refer to the self-assessment section further down this page.

01

Chasing Losses

Continuing to place bets in an attempt to recover money you have already lost, often leading to larger wagers and deeper losses than originally intended.

02

Gambling With Money You Cannot Afford to Lose

Using money earmarked for rent, food, utilities, school fees, or other essential expenses to fund gambling activity on the Platform.

03

Inability to Stop or Reduce Play

Repeatedly attempting to cut down or stop gambling without success, or feeling a compulsion to return to the Platform even when you have decided not to.

04

Neglecting Responsibilities

Allowing gambling to interfere with work, studies, family commitments, or social relationships, or lying to others about the amount of time or money spent gambling.

05

Gambling to Cope With Stress or Emotions

Using gambling as a way to escape from anxiety, depression, loneliness, boredom, or other difficult emotions, rather than as a leisure activity enjoyed in a positive state of mind.

06

Borrowing Money to Gamble

Taking loans, borrowing from family or friends, or using credit to fund gambling deposits, particularly if the borrowing is not disclosed or is misrepresented to the lender.

How Does Your Gambling Feel?

Answer these ten questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to three or more, we encourage you to speak with a member of the 56bd support team or activate one of the protection tools available in your account settings.

Self-Assessment Questionnaire

Read each question carefully and reflect on your gambling behaviour over the past 12 months, or since you began gambling if you have been playing for less than one year.

Q1

Have you ever felt the need to gamble with larger amounts of money in order to get the same level of excitement you felt when you first started?

Q2

Have you ever felt restless, irritable, or anxious when you tried to cut down or stop gambling?

Q3

Have you made repeated unsuccessful attempts to reduce, control, or stop your gambling?

Q4

Have you often found yourself thinking about gambling when you are doing other things — replaying past bets or planning your next session?

Q5

Have you gambled to escape from personal problems or to relieve feelings of stress, anxiety, guilt, or depression?

Q6

After losing money gambling, have you typically returned the next day (or very soon after) to try to win back what you lost?

Q7

Have you lied to family members, friends, or colleagues about how much time or money you spend on gambling?

Q8

Have you ever placed bets using money that was intended for essential living expenses such as food, rent, bills, or education?

Q9

Have you ever borrowed money from someone, or sold personal possessions, in order to fund gambling activity?

Q10

Has gambling ever caused significant strain in your relationships, affected your performance at work or school, or led to other serious problems in your daily life?

What your answers mean: If you answered "yes" to 1–2 questions, you may be in an early-risk category — consider setting deposit or session limits in your account settings as a precaution. If you answered "yes" to 3 or more questions, we encourage you to contact the 56bd support team via live chat right away to discuss the responsible gaming tools available to you, including the option of a voluntary self-exclusion. You are not alone, and support is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

How to Activate Your Protection Tools

Most responsible gaming tools on the 56bd Platform can be activated directly from your account settings within seconds. For self-exclusion requests, our support team will guide you through the process personally.

Step 1 — Log In to Your 56bd Account

Access the Platform and sign in to your registered player account. If you are having difficulty logging in or have forgotten your credentials, contact the support team via live chat for immediate assistance.

Step 2 — Navigate to Responsible Gaming Settings

Go to your account profile menu and select the "Responsible Gaming" section. This dedicated area contains all available protection tools — deposit limits, loss limits, session limits, reality checks, and time-out options.

Step 3 — Choose and Configure Your Tool

Select the tool you wish to activate and enter your chosen parameters — for example, a daily deposit limit of ৳5,000 or a session time limit of 2 hours. Review the settings carefully before confirming, as reductions take effect immediately.

Step 4 — Confirm Your Settings

Confirm your selection. A summary of your active responsible gaming settings will be displayed in the account settings page at all times so you can review what protections are in place whenever you log in.

Step 5 — Request Self-Exclusion (If Needed)

If you wish to apply a longer-term self-exclusion, contact the 56bd support team directly via live chat. A team member will process your request immediately, confirm the exclusion period, and send you written confirmation. No cooling-off period applies to self-exclusion requests — they take effect straight away.

21+

Strictly for Adults Aged 21 and Above

The 56bd platform is legally restricted to players who are 21 years of age or older. We operate mandatory age verification checks as part of our KYC process for all registered accounts. Anyone found to be under the age of 21 will have their account immediately suspended, all funds returned, and no winnings paid out. We also strongly encourage parents and guardians to use parental control software to prevent underage access to online gambling platforms.

You Do Not Have to Face This Alone

If gambling is causing you distress — financially, emotionally, or in your relationships — help is available right now. 56bd's support team is trained to assist players who are concerned about their gambling behaviour and can connect you with the right tools or resources immediately.

56bd Support Team — Available 24/7

Our responsible gaming support team is available around the clock via live chat on the Platform. Whether you want to activate a self-exclusion, talk through your options, or simply need someone to speak with, our team will respond promptly and without judgement. You can also reach us by email at:

External Support & Counselling Resources

56bd encourages any player who is struggling with problem gambling to seek professional support. There are international organisations that provide free, confidential counselling and guidance to problem gamblers and their families, including Gamblers Anonymous (www.gamblersanonymous.org) and GamCare (www.gamcare.org.uk). These are widely accessible to players in Bangladesh via phone, online chat, and email. Please note: these are external resources and their contact details are provided for information only — 56bd has no commercial relationship with these organisations.

56bd's Proactive Monitoring Commitment

Behind the scenes, 56bd operates an internal responsible gaming monitoring programme. Our platform analyses account activity patterns — including rapid increases in deposit frequency, extended unbroken session durations, and escalating stake sizes — and flags accounts that may be exhibiting indicators of problem gambling behaviour. Where such indicators are detected, a member of the 56bd responsible gaming team will proactively reach out to the player in question to check in and offer support. This outreach is not punitive — it is a genuine attempt to ensure every player on the Platform is gambling within their means and enjoying the experience responsibly.

56bd also conducts periodic audits of its responsible gaming tools to ensure they are functioning correctly and that the cool-down periods for limit increases are being enforced as intended. Any player who believes a responsible gaming tool has not functioned as expected is encouraged to contact the support team immediately so the issue can be investigated and resolved.

Parental Controls: If you share a device with children or young people in your household, we strongly recommend installing dedicated parental control software such as Net Nanny, Bark, or Qustodio to prevent inadvertent access to gambling platforms. 56bd cannot be held responsible for underage access resulting from a failure to implement parental controls on shared devices.
