426 Responsible Gaming: Your Guide to Safe and Balanced Entertainment
Enjoy entertainment at 426 — responsibly. We want every user to game in a healthy, mindful, and controlled way.
Gaming is entertainment — it is never a source of income or a solution to life's problems.
426's Commitment to Responsible Gaming
426 believes that online betting and gaming should be a source of entertainment — enjoyable, but never something that negatively impacts your life. We place the highest priority on the mental health and financial wellbeing of every user in Bangladesh.
On this page, you will find guidance on how to play mindfully, recognise risky behaviour, and seek help when needed. 426 is always here for its users — not just for entertainment, but for support too.
Recognise the Signs of Risky Behaviour
Look out for the following signs that gaming may be becoming a problem:
- Feeling the urge to spend beyond your set budget.
- Chasing losses by continuing to play in an attempt to win back money.
- Inability to sleep or focus on work due to constant thoughts about gaming.
- Hiding gaming expenses from family or friends.
- Repeatedly trying to quit gaming but failing to do so.
- Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when not gaming.
- Prioritising gaming over family, work, or social responsibilities.
If any of these signs feel familiar, it's time to take a break and seek support.
Set Your Own Time and Budget
The most effective step in responsible gaming is setting your limits before you start. Follow the tips below:
Decide in advance the maximum amount (৳) you will spend each day or week. Once you reach that limit, stop for the day — never chase losses.
Set a daily time limit for gaming. Use a timer on your mobile. Once the time is up, take a break and spend time with your family.
Only play with money left over after covering your essential household expenses. Never use funds set aside for food, rent, or medicine for gaming.
Ask yourself once a week — is gaming bringing you joy, or causing stress? If it feels more like a burden, taking a break is the right call.
Use the Self-Control Tools Available to You
426 offers a range of self-control tools that you can activate on your own:
Deposit Limit
You can set a maximum daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit on your account. Limits take effect immediately once set. Please note that a waiting period may apply if you wish to increase your limit.
Breaks & Pauses
If you feel like you need a break, you can temporarily suspend your account for a set period — such as 24 hours, 7 days, or 1 month — using our cooling-off feature. You will not be able to log in or place bets during this time.
Permanent Exclusion
If you are experiencing long-term issues, you can opt for self-exclusion, which fully deactivates your account for an extended period. Contact [email protected] for assistance with this.
Protecting Minors
426 strictly prohibits anyone under 18 from using the platform. Here is our advice for parents to help protect children and teenagers:
- Lock your mobile phone or device with a password to prevent children from gaining access.
- Never share your 426 account login details with any family member.
- Enable parental controls on your device.
- Always log out of your account when you are done.
- Educate children about the harms of online gambling.
If you suspect a minor is using 426, please report it immediately to [email protected].
Life Balance & Professional Support
Maintain Balance in Your Life
Gaming is just a small part of life. Spending time with family, socialising with friends, staying physically active, and pursuing hobbies you enjoy are all essential for your mental wellbeing.
If you feel that gaming is affecting your work, sleep, family life, or social relationships, take a break today and talk to someone you trust.
Do Not Hesitate to Seek Professional Help
Gaming addiction is a recognized mental health condition, and seeking professional help is a completely normal and courageous step. In Bangladesh, you can consult a mental health specialist for support.
