98pak is fully committed to ensuring that every player enjoys our cricket betting, slots, and live casino games safely and within their means. This page explains our tools, your rights, and how to keep gaming fun rather than harmful.
At 98pak, we genuinely believe that responsible gaming is not just a compliance requirement – it is the foundation of a healthy relationship between a platform and its players. Millions of people in Pakistan enjoy online cricket betting, casino games, and slots purely for entertainment. The PSL season, a big Test match, a Friday night slots session with friends – these are fun experiences. Our job is to keep them that way.
The reality is that for a small proportion of players, gambling can shift from entertainment to something more harmful. Problem gambling does not discriminate – it can affect anyone regardless of how long they have been playing or how much they earn. The signs are not always obvious, especially early on. That is precisely why 98pak has built a comprehensive set of responsible gaming tools directly into every account on the platform, not buried in settings but prominently available at all times.
Our responsible gaming framework covers three areas: prevention (age verification, spending limits, reality checks), early intervention (self-assessment tools, account alerts, support outreach), and recovery (self-exclusion, account cooling-off periods, and referrals to specialist support). This page walks through all three in plain language.
One thing we want to be absolutely clear about: 98pak services are available to adults aged 18 and over only. There are no exceptions to this rule. Age verification via CNIC is mandatory for all accounts and for withdrawals above Rs 25,000. If you are under 18, please do not attempt to register on 98pak.
If any of the following statements sound familiar, it may be time to use our responsible gaming tools or speak to someone:
If two or more of these apply, we strongly encourage you to activate self-exclusion or set a deposit limit right now via Account Settings, or contact 98pak support.
Problem gambling often develops gradually. The warning signs below are commonly observed across all types of online gambling – cricket betting, slots, live casino, and crash games like Aviator. Recognising them early is the most effective way to prevent long-term harm.
Every 98pak account comes with the following responsible gaming controls built in. They are available in Account Settings at any time and take effect immediately upon activation – no delay, no waiting period for protective measures.
Set a maximum PKR deposit amount per day, week, or month. Once the limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Limit reductions take effect immediately; increases require a 24-hour cooling period.
Cap the total amount you can lose in PKR over a defined period. When the loss limit is reached, all real-money gameplay is suspended until the period expires. An effective way to keep sessions within your entertainment budget.
Set a maximum duration for each gaming session. When the time limit is reached, you will be automatically logged out and shown a summary of your session. Helps prevent extended unplanned play.
Enable periodic on-screen reminders showing how long you have been playing and your net PKR position for the session. Available at 15, 30, 45, or 60-minute intervals.
Take a short break of 24 hours, 48 hours, or 7 days during which your account is suspended. Useful for players who feel they need a brief pause but are not ready for full self-exclusion.
Permanently or temporarily close your 98pak account. Periods of 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or permanent exclusion are available. During exclusion, all marketing communications are halted and re-registration is blocked.
Self-exclusion is the most powerful responsible gaming tool available on 98pak. It immediately suspends access to your account and all gambling services. Here is exactly what happens when you self-exclude:
Your account is locked the moment self-exclusion is confirmed. You cannot log in, place bets, or spin slots during the exclusion period.
Promotional SMS, email, and push notifications are halted immediately. 98pak will not contact you with offers or game promotions during the exclusion.
Any PKR balance in your account at the time of self-exclusion is held securely. You can request withdrawal of your balance by contacting support.
Attempts to create a new account using the same CNIC, mobile number, or email address will be rejected for the duration of the exclusion period.
Available exclusion durations:
