Our Commitment

Gaming Should Always Be Fun

dhk22 is Bangladesh's premier online gaming and cricket betting platform, and with that position comes a serious responsibility. We are firmly committed to responsible gaming practices and to fostering an environment where every player — whether in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, or anywhere else across the country — can enjoy their experience without risk to their financial or personal wellbeing.

For the vast majority of players, online gaming is a recreational activity — entertaining, exciting, and entirely manageable. However, dhk22 recognises that for some individuals, gambling can become problematic. That is why we have built a comprehensive suite of responsible gaming tools directly into the platform, ensuring every player has the means to set boundaries, take breaks, and seek help whenever needed.

This page explains everything you need to know about responsible gaming at dhk22 — from the practical tools available to you right now, to the warning signs of problem gambling, to how our support team can help 24 hours a day, 7 days a week (Bangladesh Standard Time, UTC+6).

Adults Aged 21 and Above Only

The dhk22 platform is strictly for individuals who are 21 years of age or older. Age verification is mandatory at registration. If you are under 21, you must not use this platform. If you believe a minor has accessed dhk22, contact our support team immediately at [email protected] — we will act without delay.

Built-In Player Controls

Responsible Gaming Tools at dhk22

Every dhk22 account comes with a full set of responsible gaming controls. These tools are free, instant to activate, and available directly from your account settings — no need to contact support unless you prefer to.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you can deposit into your dhk22 account. Once the limit is reached, no further deposits will be accepted until the period resets. Lowering a limit takes effect immediately; increasing a limit requires a 7-day cooling-off period to protect you from impulsive decisions.

Session Time Limits

Decide in advance how long each gaming session should last. When your chosen time limit expires, dhk22 will display a clear notification and automatically end your active session. This tool is especially useful for players who want to prevent extended unplanned play sessions during evenings or weekends.

Loss Limits

Define the maximum amount you are comfortable losing within a set time period (daily, weekly, or monthly). dhk22 will track your net losses in real time and prevent further play once the limit is hit. This is one of the most powerful tools available to ensure gambling remains within your personal budget.

Time-Out / Cool-Off

Need a short break? Activate a time-out period ranging from 24 hours to 6 weeks. During a time-out, your account is temporarily suspended — you cannot deposit, place bets, or access games. Time-outs cannot be cancelled early, giving you a genuine, enforced break when you need one most.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel that gambling is no longer under your control, dhk22's self-exclusion tool allows you to permanently or long-term close your account. Self-exclusion periods start at 6 months and can be set for up to 5 years, or permanently. Reactivation after a permanent exclusion is not permitted.

Reality Checks

Enable periodic on-screen reminders that display how long you have been playing and how much you have won or lost in the current session. Reality checks appear at intervals you choose — every 15, 30, or 60 minutes — helping you stay aware of time and money spent during your dhk22 gaming sessions.

Step-by-Step Guide

How to Activate Your Responsible Gaming Tools

All responsible gaming controls at dhk22 are accessible within your account dashboard in under two minutes. No phone calls, no waiting — just straightforward controls that put you in charge. If you prefer to have a tool activated by a member of the team, our 24/7 live chat support is always available.

Immediate Effect: Protective measures such as lowering a deposit limit, activating a time-out, or initiating self-exclusion take effect instantly upon confirmation. No delay, no grace period.
Increasing Limits: Any request to increase a deposit or loss limit is subject to a mandatory 7-day review period before the change takes effect. This cooling-off period is there to protect you.

Awareness & Prevention

Recognising the Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually and is not always easy to recognise in yourself. Being aware of the warning signs is the first and most important step toward getting help. If any of the following apply to you or someone you care about, please reach out to the dhk22 support team or a professional organisation.

01
Spending more money on gambling than you originally planned or can afford to lose.
02
Chasing losses — continuing to gamble in an attempt to recover money you have already lost.
03
Borrowing money, selling possessions, or neglecting bills to fund gambling activity.
04
Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when trying to reduce or stop gambling.
05
Gambling as a way to escape stress, depression, anxiety, or difficult personal circumstances.
06
Lying to family members or friends about how often or how much you gamble.
07
Neglecting work, studies, family responsibilities, or personal health due to time spent gambling.
08
Needing to gamble with larger and larger amounts to get the same level of excitement.
09
Making repeated unsuccessful attempts to control, cut back, or stop gambling altogether.
10
Experiencing guilt, shame, or regret after gambling sessions but returning to gamble again.
11
Thinking about gambling constantly — planning the next session, reliving past wins, or calculating future bets.
12
Relationships with family, colleagues, or friends suffering as a result of your gambling habits.
If you recognise any of these signs: Please do not wait. Contact dhk22 support via live chat 24/7 or email [email protected] (plain text, not a link) to activate a time-out or self-exclusion immediately. Your wellbeing is more important than any game.
Quick Self-Check

Ask Yourself These Questions

Honest self-reflection is one of the most powerful tools in responsible gaming. Run through the following questions when you have a quiet moment. If you answer "yes" to three or more of these, we strongly encourage you to activate a time-out or speak with a support agent.

Healthy Gaming: Responsible players set a budget before playing, treat any losses as the cost of entertainment, and never gamble with money needed for essential expenses like rent, food, or utilities.
Talk to Us: dhk22's English-language support team is available around the clock. If you want to discuss your gaming habits in confidence, our agents are trained to listen and to help you access the right tools or referrals.

Detailed Tool Guide

Understanding Each Protection Tool

Here is a closer look at how each responsible gaming tool at dhk22 works in practice, so you can choose the right option for your situation.

Deposit Limits

Cap your deposits at a daily, weekly, or monthly level in BDT (৳). Reductions take effect immediately. Increases require a 7-day waiting period. Your limit history is logged and auditable at any time from your account settings.

Instant Protection

Time-Out

Take a break of 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, 4 weeks, or 6 weeks. Your account is fully suspended for the duration — no gameplay, no deposits, no marketing emails. Cannot be cancelled once activated.

Enforced Break

Self-Exclusion

Close your account for 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, 5 years, or permanently. During exclusion, any attempt to create a new dhk22 account will be detected and blocked. Permanent exclusion cannot be reversed under any circumstances.

Long-Term Safety

Reality Checks

On-screen pop-up reminders at 15, 30, or 60-minute intervals showing your session duration and net result. You can choose to continue or end the session at each prompt. Fully customisable from your responsible gaming dashboard.

Stay Aware
Protecting Minors

Keeping Under-21s Off the Platform

dhk22 enforces a strict minimum age requirement of 21 years. This is non-negotiable and is enforced at multiple levels — during registration, during KYC identity verification, and through ongoing account monitoring. Any account found to be held by a person under the age of 21 will be immediately suspended and all associated funds reviewed in line with our Terms & Conditions.

We strongly encourage parents and guardians in Bangladesh to use parental control software to prevent minors from accessing online gambling platforms. Tools such as net nanny software, family safety settings on Android and iOS devices, and router-level content filtering can all add an additional layer of protection at home.

Report Underage Access: If you believe a person under 21 has registered or is using a dhk22 account, please report it immediately via live chat or at [email protected] (plain text). We will investigate and act without delay.

Mandatory KYC Age Verification

Every new dhk22 account must complete identity verification using a valid government-issued ID such as a National Identity Card (NID) or passport. Our KYC process confirms both identity and age before any deposit or withdrawal is permitted.

Parental Controls & Device Filtering

We recommend families use device-level parental controls to prevent children from accessing online gaming sites. Most smartphones and home routers in Bangladesh support content-filtering features that can block gambling categories entirely.

Keep Your Credentials Private

Never share your dhk22 username or password with others, including family members. Use a strong, unique password and enable two-factor authentication (2FA) to ensure only you can access your account.
