Player Wellbeing First

Responsible
Gaming at as88

At as88, we believe that online gaming is entertainment — and like all entertainment, it should stay fun, controlled, and well within your personal limits. Our Responsible Gaming programme is not a legal formality; it is a genuine commitment to the well-being of every player on our platform, whether you are placing a cricket bet from Lahore or spinning a slot from Karachi.

This page walks you through the tools, policies, and resources that as88 provides to help you game safely — including our mandatory 21+ age restriction, self-exclusion options, deposit and loss limits, session controls, and support resources for anyone who feels their gaming may be getting out of hand.

21+ Age Restriction Strictly Enforced
24/7 Support Available
Free Self-Exclusion Tools

21+ Age Policy

as88 enforces a strict minimum age requirement of 21 years for all platform users. This applies to account registration, deposits, wagering, and access to all gaming products including casino games, slots, cricket betting, and live dealer tables.

All new accounts are subject to mandatory age verification as part of our KYC (Know Your Customer) process. Documents such as your CNIC or passport are required to confirm that you meet the 21+ threshold before any real-money activity is permitted.

If at any point as88 has reasonable grounds to believe a player does not meet the age requirement, the account will be suspended immediately pending investigation, and any balances may be withheld pending verification.

as88 Responsible Gaming Tools

These tools are available free of charge to every registered as88 player. You can activate any of them at any time from your account settings or by contacting the 24/7 support team.

Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit caps on your as88 account to make sure your spending stays within a budget you are comfortable with. Once set, limits take effect immediately. Increases require a 24-hour cooling period.

Loss Limits

Define the maximum amount you are willing to lose over a set period. When your net losses reach the limit you have defined, as88 will automatically restrict further wagering until the period resets, protecting your bankroll.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum daily session duration. When your active play time reaches the limit, as88 will display a notification and, if you choose, automatically log you out to prevent extended unplanned gaming sessions.

Cool-Off Period

Take a short break from as88 by activating a cool-off period ranging from 24 hours to 6 weeks. During a cool-off, your account remains accessible for withdrawals but you cannot place bets or make deposits.

Self-Exclusion

Request a formal self-exclusion from as88 for periods of 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanently. During self-exclusion, your account is completely blocked. as88 will also make commercially reasonable efforts to remove you from marketing lists.

Marketing Opt-Out

Opt out of all promotional communications from as88 at any time, including bonus offers, new game alerts, and VIP promotions. Removing temptation is a practical part of responsible gaming that as88 fully supports.

Strongest Protection

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of income, city, or experience level. as88 encourages all players to regularly check in with these warning signs. If you recognise any of them in yourself or someone close to you, please take action early.

1
Spending More Than Intended

You regularly exceed the amount of money you planned to spend on gaming sessions, especially on platforms like as88.

2
Chasing Losses

After a losing session, you find yourself immediately trying to win back losses with larger bets, sometimes with money earmarked for other things.

3
Gaming Interfering with Daily Life

Work, family responsibilities, or social commitments in Karachi, Lahore, or wherever you are — are being neglected because of time spent gaming.

4
Borrowing Money to Gamble

You are borrowing from friends, family, or using credit to fund gaming activities, or you are finding it difficult to cover regular expenses because of gaming spending.

5
Feeling Anxious or Irritable When Not Playing

You experience restlessness, anxiety, or irritability when you are not gaming, or you use gaming as a way to escape stress, anxiety, or low moods.

6
Being Secretive About Gaming Habits

You hide the amount of time or money you spend on gaming from family or close friends, or you feel the need to lie about your activities.

Quick Responsible Gaming Check

Honestly reflect on the following questions. If you answer "yes" to two or more, we strongly encourage you to use the as88 responsible gaming tools or speak with our support team.

Q1

Have you ever spent more money gaming than you initially planned within a single week?

Q2

Do you find yourself thinking about your next gaming session while doing other things — at work, at home, or with family?

Q3

Have you tried to cut down on your gaming but found it difficult to stick to that decision?

Q4

Have you ever used money intended for household expenses, bills, or savings to fund gaming deposits?

Q5

Has anyone — a partner, parent, or friend — expressed concern to you about how much time or money you spend gaming?

Q6

Do you feel a strong urge to keep playing in order to recover money you have already lost?

Two or more "yes" answers? You don't need to face this alone. Contact as88 support via live chat to activate a cool-off or self-exclusion, or reach out to a responsible gaming helpline for confidential guidance.
