What We Do in Responsible Gaming

Setting Spending Limits

Set your own deposit and bet limits on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once set, limits cannot be raised easily — that's exactly what keeps you safe.

Session Time Control

Keep track of how long you have been playing. Matkaonline lets you set automatic alerts or breaks once a specified time limit is reached.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a break, you can temporarily suspend your account for a set period — anywhere from 7 days to 6 months. You decide the duration.

Age Verification

Matkaonline strictly enforces an 18+ policy. Age is verified at the point of registration, and any account that raises suspicion is subject to additional verification.

Gaming History Review

Your full gaming history, win/loss records, and spending details are available to view at any time. Transparency is our policy.

Professional Support

If you feel you need it, our support team can connect you with professional counseling services. You are not alone.

Gaming Is for Fun, Not Addiction

At Matkaonline, we believe online gaming should be an enjoyable part of life — never a burden or a problem. Millions of people across Bangladesh play slots, fish games, bingo, and Sports Betting every day as a form of entertainment. For a small number of players, however, gaming can sometimes become difficult to control.

With this in mind, Matkaonline has built a robust responsible gaming framework. Our goal goes beyond offering great games — ensuring every player's long-term wellbeing and financial safety is equally our responsibility. Responsible gaming means knowing your limits, staying within them, and having the courage to seek help when you need it.

From the moment you register on Matkaonline, our system monitors your gaming patterns. If any unusual behavior is detected, our team will reach out to you. This is not surveillance — it is genuine care.

Keep in Mind

Responsible gaming starts with awareness. If you find yourself thinking "this is getting a bit out of hand" — trust that feeling and take action.


Set Your Own Limits

Once logged in to Matkaonline, you can easily set the following limits from your account settings. Limits take effect immediately. If you wish to increase a limit, a minimum 72-hour waiting period applies — this is intentional, to prevent impulsive decisions made in the heat of the moment.

Limit Type Duration Time to Take Effect
Deposit Limit Daily / Weekly / Monthly Instant
Bet Limits Per Round / Daily Instant
Loss Limit Daily / Weekly / Monthly Instant
Session Time Limit Fixed Time per Session Instant
Cooling-Off Period 24 Hours – 6 Weeks Instant
Self-Exclusion 7 Days – 6 Months or Permanent Instant
Important

Once self-exclusion is activated, there is absolutely no way to access your account during that period. This restriction is your guarantee of protection.


Signs of Problem Gaming

Problem gaming doesn't always appear overnight. It develops gradually and can be hard to recognize in yourself. If any of the signs below start showing up in your life, it's wise to take action before things escalate.

  • Chasing losses with more bets — placing "recovery bets"
  • Lying to or hiding your gaming from family or friends
  • Feeling restless, irritable, or low when not gaming
  • Betting with essential household or emergency funds
  • You have tried to stop gaming but keep failing
  • Continuing to game by taking on debt or borrowing money
  • Gaming is affecting your work, studies, or relationships
  • You enjoy winning but find you cannot stop
Asking for Help Is Not a Weakness

If you recognize any of the signs above in yourself, contact our support team right away. Asking for help is the bravest thing you can do.

10 Rules for Playing Responsibly

These simple tips, drawn from experienced players, will help keep gaming a source of enjoyment every time.

  1. Gaming is for entertainment only — do not treat it as a source of income.
  2. Set a budget before you start and never go beyond it.
  3. Never chase your losses by placing more bets.
  4. Do not play while under the influence of alcohol or when you are feeling stressed.
  5. Set a time limit — avoid playing for hours on end without a break.
  6. Do not hide your gaming activity from family or friends.
  7. Learn to stop even when you are winning — chasing more is the biggest risk of all.
  8. Make time for other hobbies and relationships outside of gaming.
  9. Never place bets using household funds or money set aside for emergencies.
  10. Take a break whenever you feel like it — there's no shame in it, it's the smart thing to do.

Frequently Asked Questions About Responsible Gaming

The most common signs of problem gaming include: an overwhelming urge to keep playing, chasing losses by placing more bets, hiding your gaming from family or friends, and experiencing financial or social problems because of gaming. If you recognize several of these signs, please reach out to our support team.

A cooling-off period is a short break (24 hours to 6 weeks) that you can end at any time. Self-exclusion is a longer-term commitment (7 days to 6 months, or permanent) and can only be reversed after the chosen period has elapsed. Self-exclusion provides a stronger level of protection.

Activating self-exclusion will lock your account immediately and completely. You will not be able to log in, make deposits, or engage in any gaming activity. Once the chosen period ends, you may request to reactivate your account. If you opt for permanent self-exclusion, however, your account will be closed for good.

Any limit increase requires a minimum 72-hour waiting period. This is intentional, so you don't make impulsive decisions in the heat of the moment. Limit decreases, however, take effect immediately.

Self-exclusion on Matkaonline applies only to this platform. If you find yourself struggling across multiple online gaming sites, you can activate self-exclusion on each platform separately. You may also contact your internet service provider (ISP) or mobile operator to block access to gaming sites altogether.

The Matkaonline support team is always here for you. In addition, various NGOs and health organizations across Bangladesh offer free counseling for gaming addiction. You are welcome to reach out to your local mental health center, or our support team can connect you with the right organization.
