Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not a Problem

Strictly 21+ Platform — No Exceptions

71bd is available exclusively to adults aged 21 years and above. Players in Bangladesh must meet this age requirement to register, deposit, and play. 71bd employs mandatory identity and age verification (KYC) for all registered accounts. Any account found to be operated by a person under 21 will be immediately suspended and all associated funds returned.

At 71bd, we believe that gambling is best enjoyed as a form of entertainment — one that fits within your personal budget and spare time. For the overwhelming majority of players across Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, and Rajshahi who use our platform responsibly, betting on cricket outrights, spinning slots, and playing live casino games is a fun and engaging pastime.

However, 71bd also recognises that a small number of players may find that gambling stops being enjoyable and begins to cause stress, financial pressure, or personal harm. When that happens, it is important to act quickly. This page explains the full range of responsible gaming tools available on 71bd, the warning signs to look out for, and where to find support if you or someone you know needs it.

Responsible gaming at 71bd is not a box-ticking exercise. It is a core part of how we operate. Every feature described on this page is active, accessible from your account settings, and supported by our around-the-clock player support team at [email protected].

Golden Rules of Responsible Play
Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Set a budget before you start and stick to it. Never chase losses — a losing streak does not mean a win is "due". Take regular breaks and keep track of time spent on the platform.

Gambling is not a way to make money. The house edge means that over the long run, losses are mathematically more likely than profits. Treat every deposit as the cost of entertainment, not an investment.

Never gamble under the influence. Alcohol, medication, or emotional distress impair judgment and decision-making. 71bd strongly discourages gambling when your ability to make clear, considered decisions is affected.

Six Pillars of Player Protection at 71bd

Every tool below is available to all registered 71bd players and can be activated through account settings or by contacting our support team directly.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum deposit amount on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once your chosen limit is reached, no further deposits will be accepted until the period resets. Limit reductions take effect immediately; increases require a 7-day cooling-off period before activation. This tool puts you firmly in control of how much money enters your 71bd account at any time.

Loss Limits

A loss limit caps the total amount you are permitted to lose within a chosen time window — daily, weekly, or monthly. If your net losses reach the set threshold, your account will be temporarily restricted from placing further bets for the remainder of that period. This is one of the most effective tools for preventing chasing behaviour during a losing run.

Session Time Limits

Choose a maximum session duration — from 30 minutes up to 8 hours. When your session time limit is reached, a pop-up notification will alert you and, if you choose, automatically log you out. Regular session limits are strongly recommended for players who find it easy to lose track of time while engaged with live casino games or cricket betting markets.

Cool-Off Period

If you feel you need a short break from the platform without committing to a full self-exclusion, you can activate a cool-off period ranging from 24 hours to 6 weeks. During a cool-off period, your account remains open but all betting, gaming, and deposit activity is suspended. Marketing communications are also paused for the duration of your cool-off.

Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is the most powerful player protection tool available on 71bd. When activated, your account is fully suspended for a minimum period of 6 months, up to a maximum of 60 months (5 years). During self-exclusion, you will not be able to log in, deposit, or access any gaming content. All promotional communications are permanently suppressed for the exclusion duration. To request self-exclusion, contact [email protected].

Reality Checks

Enable periodic reality check notifications that appear as on-screen pop-ups at intervals you choose — every 30, 60, or 90 minutes. Each reality check displays how long you have been playing in the current session and your net win or loss during that time. This gives you a clear, factual snapshot of your gambling activity without requiring you to navigate away from your game.

Using 71bd's Protection Tools Step by Step

1

Log In to Your 71bd Account

Navigate to the 71bd Login page and sign in with your registered username and password. All responsible gaming tools are accessible from within your authenticated account area — you do not need to contact support to activate deposit limits, loss limits, or session time limits.

2

Open Your Account Settings

Once logged in, navigate to the Account Settings panel. Locate the "Responsible Gaming" or "Player Protection" sub-menu. This section lists all available tools with their current status and any existing limits you have already set.

3

Choose and Configure Your Tool

Select the tool you wish to activate — deposit limit, loss limit, session timer, cool-off, or reality check. Enter your chosen value and time period. Review the confirmation screen carefully before submitting. Remember: reductions are immediate, but increases require a mandatory 7-day waiting period as a safeguard.

4

Request Self-Exclusion via Support

Due to the serious nature of self-exclusion, this tool must be activated by contacting the 71bd support team directly at [email protected]. State your account username, the desired exclusion duration (minimum 6 months), and the word "SELF-EXCLUSION" in the subject line. The team will process your request within one business day and confirm activation by email.

5

Confirm and Monitor Your Settings

After any limit or tool is activated, a confirmation email is sent to your registered address. You can view all active responsible gaming settings at any time from your Account Settings panel. If you have concerns about a setting or need to discuss your situation with a member of our team, contact us 24/7 at [email protected].

Detailed Guide to 71bd Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is the most decisive step a player can take when gambling has begun to cause harm. At 71bd, we take every self-exclusion request with the utmost seriousness and process them without delay.

Immediate Effect
Minimum Duration
The shortest available self-exclusion period at 71bd is 6 months. This cannot be shortened or reversed once activated.
Maximum Duration
Players may choose to self-exclude for up to 60 months (5 years). Longer durations are available on request.
Subject line: SELF-EXCLUSION
What Happens During Exclusion
Full Account Suspension
During the self-exclusion period, your 71bd account is fully locked. Login access, deposits, withdrawals, and all gaming and betting activity are suspended. Any outstanding balance will be returned to your registered bKash, Nagad, or Rocket account. All marketing emails, SMS messages, and bonus notifications are permanently disabled for the duration of the exclusion period.
Processing time: Within 1 business day

Reinstatement After Self-Exclusion: When your chosen self-exclusion period expires, your account is not automatically reactivated. You must contact the support team to request reinstatement. A mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period applies before any reinstatement takes effect. 71bd reserves the right to require a brief responsible gaming review before reactivating any self-excluded account.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. The sooner these warning signs are recognised — in yourself or someone close to you — the easier it is to seek help and regain control.

Chasing LossesContinuing to bet after significant losses with the intention of "winning back" what was lost — often leading to larger and riskier bets.
Gambling Beyond Your BudgetRegularly depositing more than you planned, borrowing money, or using funds intended for rent, food, or bills to fund gambling activity.
Hiding Gambling ActivityConcealing the amount of time or money spent on gambling from family members, friends, or colleagues due to embarrassment or shame.
Loss of Interest in Other ActivitiesFinding that gambling has displaced hobbies, social activities, work responsibilities, or family time that you previously valued and enjoyed.
Gambling to Cope with EmotionsUsing gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety, depression, loneliness, or boredom rather than seeking other forms of support or relief.
Feeling Restless When Not GamblingExperiencing irritability, anxiety, or a persistent urge to return to gambling when you are away from the platform or have tried to stop.
Unsuccessful Attempts to Cut BackMaking repeated promises to yourself or others to reduce or stop gambling, but being unable to follow through over any meaningful period of time.
Significant Financial DistressAccumulating debts, selling possessions, or experiencing financial hardship that is directly or partly attributable to gambling losses.

If you recognise two or more of these signs in your own behaviour, we strongly encourage you to use 71bd's self-exclusion or cool-off tools immediately and reach out to the support team. You can also consult the support organisations listed in the section below. Seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness — and the earlier you act, the more options are available to you.

Take a Moment to Check In with Yourself

The following questions are drawn from standard responsible gaming screening frameworks used by player protection organisations worldwide. Answer honestly — your responses are for your own reflection only and are not submitted to 71bd.

NeverOnce or twiceSometimesOften
2
In the past 12 months, have you felt the need to bet with larger and larger amounts of money to get the same level of excitement?
NeverOccasionallyYes, regularly
3

NeverA few timesMost of the timeAlways
4

6

If you answered "sometimes", "often", "regularly", or "yes" to two or more of the above questions, your gambling behaviour may be moving beyond healthy entertainment. We encourage you to activate a cool-off period, contact our support team, or reach out to a professional support organisation immediately.
