At l89i Responsible Gaming —
Keep the Fun Within Limits

What is responsible gaming and why does it matter?

Responsible gaming means enjoying gaming as entertainment — not as a source of income or a way to solve problems. That's what we believe at l89i. When online gaming gets out of control, it can have a serious impact on family, health, and finances.

Many people in Bangladesh are coming to online gaming platforms for the first time. The excitement of playing and winning can make it easy to lose track of how much time you're spending. At l89i, we want every player to enjoy the experience sustainably over the long term. That's why responsible gaming isn't just a rule here — it's a core part of who we are.

Research shows that players who set clear limits — whether on time, money, or the type of games they play — enjoy gaming more and are far less likely to experience harm. l89i is committed to helping you set those limits.

Setting a Budget — The Most Important Step

The most effective first step in responsible gaming is setting a budget in advance. At l89i, you decide how much you want to spend daily, weekly, or monthly — and the system enforces it automatically.

• Only play with money you can afford to lose without it affecting your daily life.
• Set aside a fixed portion of your monthly entertainment budget specifically for gaming.
• Never play with borrowed money or emergency savings.
• Avoid the urge to chase your losses by placing bigger bets — this is known as "chasing losses".
• Withdraw a portion of your winnings — don't bet it all again.

Time Management — Keep Track of Your Play Time

Online gaming can be so engaging that it's easy to lose track of time. l89i offers session timers and daily time limits to help you stay in control. These habits can make managing your time much easier:

• Decide in advance how many hours a day you want to play — and stick to it.
• Never let gaming come at the expense of meals, sleep, or time with family.
• Try to avoid gaming after midnight — making decisions when you're tired is never a good idea.
• Take at least a 10-minute break every hour — give your eyes and mind a rest.
• Take at least one completely gaming-free day every week.

How to Recognize Signs of Problem Gaming

If you notice any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, consider seeking help. These are not signs of weakness — they are warning signs that are much easier to address when caught early:

• Being unable to stop after a loss and continuing to place more bets.
• Hiding your gaming activity from family or friends.
• Neglecting work, studies, or family responsibilities because of gaming.
• Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when you can't play.
• Borrowing money or taking on debt to cover gaming expenses.
• Telling yourself "just one more time" — then playing for hours on end.
• Repeatedly trying to stop gaming but failing to do so.
• Feeling the need to place increasingly larger bets to get the same excitement.

Self-Exclusion & Break Features

At l89i, you can apply the following restrictions to your own account at any time. Once activated, these limits cannot be changed until the set period has expired:

Family Protection & Minor Controls

L89i is strictly for users aged 18 and above. We take strong measures to keep minors away from gaming, but as a parent or guardian, you also have a role to play:

• Keep your account password away from younger members of your household.
• Never leave the l89i app or website logged in on a shared device.
• Do not save payment details in your browser, so children cannot access them.
• Use parental control software on devices your children have access to.

If a minor's account is identified, l89i will immediately suspend it and return all deposited funds.
