Have fun, stay in control

Hbage believes gaming should be purely for fun. Responsible gaming means knowing your limits, sticking to a budget, and treating play as entertainment — not as a source of income or a way to solve problems.

Our Responsible Gaming Tools

Hbage provides a range of effective tools to help you build healthy gaming habits.

Deposit limit

Set your own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits. Once set, a 7-day cooldown applies before limits can be raised — preventing impulsive overspending.

Session Time Limit

Set a time limit for each gaming session. When the time is up, hbage will automatically remind you — so you stay mindful of how long you've been playing.

Self-Exclusion

If needed, lock your account for a set period (6 months to 5 years). During this time, hbage will send no promotional communications.

Loss Limit

Set a maximum loss limit before you start. Once you reach it, your session stops automatically — keeping your budget protected.

Take a Break (Cool-Off)

Take a short break of 24 hours to 30 days. During this time, account access is restricted but not fully closed.

Reality Check

At set intervals, hbage reminds you how long you've been playing and how much you've won or lost — helping you stay aware.

1 What does responsible gaming actually mean?

Responsible Gaming means enjoying online gaming as a leisure activity while staying fully in control at all times. At hbage, it means knowing when to stop, how much you can comfortably spend, and whether gaming is affecting other important areas of your life.

Hbage firmly believes that gaming should be voluntary, enjoyable, and fully within your control. If at any point the game feels more stressful or anxiety-inducing than fun, that is a warning sign. hbage's responsible gaming policy is here to help you make the right call in those moments.

Many players in Bangladesh mistakenly see gaming as a source of income. The truth is, responsible play starts with one principle — it's entertainment, not investment. hbage always reminds its users: only bet what you can afford to lose.

Core Principle: Every responsible player on hbage knows — gaming is an expense, not an income. Play within your budget and enjoy every moment.

2 Recognizing Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling and pathological gambling develop gradually. The signs may not be obvious at first, but certain behaviors are worth watching for. hbage wants you and your loved ones to stay aware of these warning signs.

Warning Signs — Talk to Support if You Notice These
  • Placing bigger bets to try to win back money you've lost
  • Unable or unwilling to stop gaming
  • Lying to family and friends about your gaming
  • Borrowing money or selling assets to fund gaming
  • Neglecting work, studies, or relationships
  • Feeling anxious or irritable when not gaming
  • Placing increasingly larger bets to get the same thrill
  • Multiple failed attempts to quit gaming

If you notice even one of the signs above in yourself, reach out directly to hbage's support team. We will not judge — we are here to help.

3 10 Tips for Safe & Enjoyable Gaming

To promote a responsible gaming culture at hbage, we encourage every player to follow these practices:

1
Set a budget in advance

Before each session, ask yourself: "How much can I afford to lose today without it being a problem?" That amount is your budget.

2
Set a Time Limit

Set a fixed time limit before you start playing. Watch the clock and use the session timer.

3
Stay calm after a loss

Don't immediately place bigger bets after a loss. Chasing losses typically leads to even greater ones.

4
Don't play under the influence of alcohol or medication

Your judgment is impaired when you're intoxicated or unwell. Avoid gaming in those situations.

5
Do not make gaming your only form of entertainment

Hobbies, family, friends — keep variety in your life. Gaming should be one of many forms of entertainment, not the only one.

6
Never assume a win is guaranteed

Every game is entirely random. No "strategy" or "system" can guarantee a win.

7
Don't play with bill money or funds you need

Never use money set aside for rent, food, or education to gamble. Only use your entertainment budget.

8
Take regular breaks

Take at least a 10-minute break every hour. Get up, walk around, drink some water.

9
Let someone close to you know

Let a family member or trusted friend know about your gaming habits. Accountability helps you maintain healthy limits.

10
Don't hesitate to ask for help

If you feel something is wrong, speak to hbage support or a professional counselor. Asking for help is not weakness — it takes courage.

4 Setting Limits — How It Works

Hbage's responsible gaming tools are simple to use. Head to your account settings and set the following limits in just a few clicks:

Limit Type Minimum Maximum Takes effect Can be increased
Daily deposit BDT 500 Self-set Instant After 7 Days
Weekly Deposit BDT 1,000 Self-set Instant After 7 Days
Monthly Loss Limit BDT 1,000 Self-set Instant After 30 Days
Session Time Limit 30 Minutes 24 Hours Instant After 24 Hours
Cool-off break 24 Hours 30 Days Instant After expiry
Self-Exclusion 6 Months 5 Years Instant After expiry

Important: Lowering a limit takes effect immediately, but increasing one always requires a waiting period — to prevent impulsive decisions.

5 Self-Assessment — Check for Yourself

Ask yourself the following questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to three or more, it is time to speak with the hbage support team.

1

Did you spend more than your set budget last month?

2

Have you hidden the truth about your gaming from family or friends?

3

After a loss, have you bet more to try to "win it back"?

4

Do you feel restless or low when you are not gaming?

5

Has gaming affected your work, studies, or family responsibilities?

6

Have you ever borrowed money to fund your gaming?

7

Have you tried to stop playing and been unable to?

8

Is gaming having a negative impact on your mental health or relationships?

Keep in mind: These questions are meant to identify issues, not to judge. Honest answers are the only way to get the right help.

6 Child & Minor Protection

Hbage is strictly prohibited for anyone under the age of 18. A key part of responsible gaming is keeping younger members of your household away from this platform.

  • Use a password or PIN lock on your device
  • Never leave your device unattended while logged in to your hbage account
  • Never share your login credentials with anyone
  • Use parental control software on devices accessible to children
  • If a minor attempts to create an account, please notify support immediately

Caution: If a minor is found to have an hbage account, it will be closed immediately and all associated data will be deleted.
