Gambling Should Always Be Entertainment

At batji, responsible gaming is not a legal footnote — it is a foundational part of how we operate. We serve a community of adult players across Bangladesh, from Dhaka to Chittagong, Sylhet to Khulna, and we take seriously the trust those players place in us every time they log in.

The batji platform is designed for recreational play. Every feature we build, every promotion we run, and every support interaction we handle is shaped by the principle that our players' long-term wellbeing comes before short-term revenue. If gambling ever stops feeling like fun, we want you to tell us — and we will act immediately to help.

This page outlines every tool and resource available to you. We strongly encourage all players to read it carefully, use the tools proactively, and reach out to our support team at any time without hesitation.

21+ Policy: The batji platform is strictly for adults aged 21 and above. All accounts are subject to age verification during the KYC process. Accounts found to belong to individuals under 21 will be closed immediately and all associated funds handled in line with our underage gaming policy.

Problem Gambling Helpline: If gambling is causing you or someone you care about serious harm, please contact our support team immediately at [email protected]. We respond within 2 hours and can activate emergency account restrictions on request.

Gamble Responsibly: Set a budget before you play. Only wager money you can afford to lose. Never chase losses. Take regular breaks. Gambling is not a reliable source of income.


Tools to Keep You in Control

batji provides a suite of account management tools that put you firmly in control of your gambling activity. These tools are available directly through your account settings or by contacting our support team.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you can deposit into your batji account. Once your chosen limit is reached, no further deposits will be accepted until the period resets. Limits can be lowered instantly; increases take 7 days to take effect, giving you time to reconsider.

Session Time Limits

Define the maximum amount of time you are willing to spend on the batji platform in a single session. When your limit is reached, you will receive a clear notification and the option to end your session. This tool is especially useful for managing play during longer evenings or weekends.

Time-Out / Cooling-Off Period

Need a short break? Activate a time-out period ranging from 24 hours to 6 weeks. During a time-out, your account will be suspended and you will not be able to log in, deposit, or place bets. The cooling-off period activates immediately and cannot be reversed early.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel that gambling is causing significant harm, you can request a self-exclusion for a period of 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, or permanently. During self-exclusion your account is fully closed, all marketing communications are stopped, and re-registration is blocked for the duration of the exclusion period.

Loss Limits

Set a ceiling on the total amount you are prepared to lose across daily, weekly, or monthly timeframes. When your loss limit is reached, further wagering is blocked for the remainder of the period. This tool helps prevent a run of bad luck from turning into a financial problem.

Marketing Opt-Out

Promotional emails, bonus notifications, and special offers can sometimes encourage spending beyond your intended budget. At any time you can opt out of all marketing communications from batji by updating your account preferences or by contacting support. Your opt-out will be processed within 24 hours.

How to Activate These Tools: All responsible gaming tools can be activated by logging into your batji account and navigating to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming, or by sending a request directly to [email protected]. Our team will process any restriction request — including self-exclusion — within 2 hours of receipt.


Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually and is not always easy to recognise in yourself. The warning signs below are commonly associated with gambling behaviour that has moved beyond healthy recreation. If several of these apply to you, we encourage you to seek help without delay.

Chasing Losses

Returning to gambling after a loss with the intention of winning back what you have lost — often resulting in larger bets and deeper losses — is one of the clearest indicators of problematic gambling behaviour.

Gambling Beyond Your Means

Using money set aside for rent, food, utilities, or family expenses to fund gambling — or borrowing money to gamble — is a serious warning sign that requires immediate attention.

Gambling to Escape Problems

Using gambling as a way to cope with stress, anxiety, loneliness, depression, or difficult life circumstances — rather than for entertainment — is a strong indicator that gambling has become a harmful coping mechanism.

Hiding Your Gambling

Feeling the need to conceal the amount of time or money you spend gambling from family, friends, or colleagues is a sign that you may already sense your behaviour has gone beyond what is acceptable to those closest to you.

Losing Track of Time

Consistently spending far longer on gambling sessions than you originally intended, or losing awareness of how much time has passed while playing, suggests that gambling may be taking on an unhealthy priority in your daily routine.

Neglecting Responsibilities

Allowing gambling to interfere with work, family obligations, social relationships, or personal health is a serious sign. If people around you have expressed concern about how much you gamble, their observations are worth taking seriously.


Take a Moment to Reflect

The questions on the right are a simple self-assessment tool. Read each question honestly and consider whether it applies to your gambling behaviour over the past 12 months. If you answer "yes" to three or more questions, we strongly recommend using one of batji's responsible gaming tools and considering speaking to a professional counsellor.

This assessment is not a clinical diagnosis — it is a prompt for honest self-reflection. Many players find it useful to revisit these questions periodically, particularly during periods of high-volume play or financial stress.

Your Privacy: This self-assessment is purely for your own reflection. batji does not collect or store your responses to these questions.

Reflect honestly on the past 12 months

Q1 Have you ever spent more money gambling than you originally planned to in a single session?
Q2 Have you ever borrowed money, sold possessions, or used bill money in order to gamble?
Q3 Have you felt restless, irritable, or anxious when you tried to cut down or stop gambling?
Q4 Have you tried unsuccessfully to control, cut back, or stop gambling on more than one occasion?
Q5 Have you gambled as a way to cope with stress, sadness, loneliness, or other negative emotions?
Q6 Have you lied to family members or friends about how much time or money you spend gambling?
Q7 Has gambling ever caused significant problems in your relationships, work, or financial situation?
Q8 Have you ever returned to gamble the next day in an attempt to win back money you had lost the previous day?

1

Log In to Your batji Account

5

Review and Adjust Limits Over Time

Your responsible gaming settings can be reviewed at any time. Remember: reductions to limits apply immediately, while increases to limits carry a mandatory 7-day cooling-off period before they take effect. Self-exclusions cannot be reversed during the chosen exclusion period under any circumstances.


Protecting Young People from Gambling Harm

batji enforces a strict minimum age of 21 years for all account holders. We do this because gambling before the brain is fully developed can lead to disproportionately harmful outcomes, and because protecting young people from gambling harm is both a legal and ethical responsibility we take with the utmost seriousness.

Every new account on batji undergoes identity and age verification as part of our KYC process. Any account found to belong to a person under 21 will be closed immediately, all accumulated winnings will be voided, and deposited funds will be returned via the original payment method in accordance with our underage gaming policy.

If you share a device with younger family members, we strongly recommend using device-level parental controls and ensuring your batji account is protected by a strong, unique password that is not accessible to minors in your household.

Tips for Parents and Guardians

  • Never share your batji login credentials with anyone, including family members.
  • Log out of your account fully after each session on any shared device.
  • Use a strong, unique password for your batji account that is not used anywhere else and is not known to others in your household.
  • Consider enabling parental control software on shared family devices to block access to gambling websites.
  • Talk openly with children and teenagers about the risks associated with gambling and why it is restricted to adults aged 21 and above.
  • If you suspect a minor has accessed a gambling platform, report it to the platform's support team immediately. You can contact batji at [email protected].
