Responsible gaming - Your safety is our priority

At bak999, we believe gaming should be fun and entertaining. Follow responsible gaming principles and stay safe.

Our commitment to responsible gaming

At bak999, we're proud to promote responsible gaming and committed to protecting our players. Online betting can be fun entertainment, but it's important that you always stay in control and understand your limits. We believe gambling should be entertainment, not a problem. That's why we've created a safe and supportive environment where you can play with confidence.

Every player is different and we understand that. For some people, gambling is occasional entertainment; for others it can be a regular hobby. However, sometimes gambling can become a problem. At bak999 we help you recognize those signs and provide support when needed. Our goal is to enable you to play responsibly and ensure that gaming remains a positive experience.

On this page you'll find responsible gaming guidelines, self-control tools, warning signs, and information about support organizations. We encourage you to read this information and stay aware of your gaming habits.

Principles of responsible gaming

Responsible gaming means staying in control of your play and ensuring it doesn't negatively impact your life. Here are some key principles to help you:

1. Set a Budget

Before you play, decide how much money you can afford to lose. This should be money that won't affect your daily life if you lose it. Never gamble with money you need for bills, rent, food, or other essential expenses.

2. Set Time Limits

Allocate a specific time for gaming and stop when that time is up. Long sessions can impair your decision-making and lead to emotional betting.

3. Don't Chase Losses

If you lose, don't try to win that money back by betting more. This leads to even greater losses. Remember, in gambling the house always wins in the long run.

4. Don't Play While Intoxicated

Alcohol or drugs impair your judgment and you may make poor decisions. Always play sober.

5. Take Breaks

Take regular breaks and review your gaming habits. This will help you make better decisions and avoid addiction.

6. Don't Play with Borrowed Money

Never gamble with borrowed money or credit cards. Only use your own money that you can afford to lose.

Responsible gaming checklist

  • I only play for entertainment, not to make money
  • I set a predetermined budget and stick to it
  • I know when to stop and respect my limits
  • I never try to chase losses
  • I prioritize my other responsibilities and relationships
  • I take regular breaks and review my gaming habits

Self-Regulation Tools

Bak999 provides you with various self-control tools to help you stay in control of your gaming. These tools are available in your account settings and can be activated at any time.

Deposit limit

Limit your daily, weekly, or monthly deposit amounts. Once the limit is reached, you won't be able to deposit again within that timeframe.

Bet Limits

Set a maximum amount for each bet or spin. This protects you from making large bets driven by emotion.

Session Time Limit

Set a limit on how long you can play in one session. When time runs out, you'll be automatically logged out.

Cool-off period

Take a break from 24 hours to 30 days. During this time you cannot log in or play, but your account remains active.

Self-Exclusion

Close your account for 6 months to 5 years or permanently. During this time you cannot log in or create a new account.

Reality Check

Set pop-up notifications to remind you at regular intervals how long you've been playing and how much you've spent.

Important note

Requests to increase self-regulation limits take effect after a 7-day cool-off period. However, reductions to limits take effect immediately. This ensures you don't raise limits on impulse.
