Important Notice — Please Read

Gambling is intended solely as a form of entertainment for adults aged 21 and above. It carries financial risk and can become harmful if not approached with care. If you feel that gambling is negatively affecting your finances, relationships, or mental health, please use the tools on this page or contact our support team immediately. Help is always available at 299db — free of charge and with complete confidentiality.

Our Commitment to
Safe Play

299db was built with the belief that a sustainable, enjoyable gambling experience is only possible when player safety sits at the foundation of every decision we make. We operate exclusively for adults aged 21 and above in Bangladesh, and we actively invest in the technology, policies, and people needed to make responsible gaming a lived reality — not just a checkbox.

We understand that problem gambling is a genuine public health concern, and that the nature of online platforms can make it harder to recognise when play has shifted from leisure to compulsion. That is why 299db provides a comprehensive suite of player-protection tools that are always available, always free, and never require justification to activate.

Whether you want to set a simple deposit limit to manage your monthly budget, take a short cooling-off break, or permanently close your account, every option is available directly through your 299db account settings. You are always in control.

Our pledge: 299db will never use manipulative design patterns, false urgency, or predatory promotional mechanics to push players toward gambling beyond their means. Our revenue depends on players who enjoy the platform sustainably over the long term — not on short-term exploitation.
21+
Strictly for Adults Aged 21 and Above

The 299db platform is open only to individuals who are 21 years of age or older. Every player must complete identity verification (KYC) before making their first deposit. Our systems are designed to detect and prevent underage access. If you are under 21, you must not register or attempt to use 299db. Parents and guardians are encouraged to use parental-control software to block access to gambling websites for minors in their household.

Player Protection Tools

299db provides a full set of account controls to help you manage your gambling activity. Every tool below is available instantly through your account settings, at no cost.

Deposit Limits
Set a maximum deposit amount on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once your chosen limit is reached, no further deposits will be accepted until the limit period resets. You can lower your deposit limit at any time with immediate effect. Increases to a deposit limit require a mandatory 48-hour cooling period before they take effect — giving you time to reconsider.
Session Time Limits
Set a maximum duration for each individual gaming session. When your time limit is reached, you will receive a clear notification and your session will end automatically. Regular time-out prompts help you maintain awareness of how long you have been playing — one of the most effective tools for keeping gambling enjoyable rather than compulsive.
Reality Check Alerts
Enable periodic reality-check notifications that appear during your gaming session at intervals you choose — every 15, 30, or 60 minutes. Each alert displays how long you have been playing and your net win or loss for the session, giving you the factual information you need to make an informed decision about whether to continue or take a break.
Cooling-Off Period
Take a temporary break from gambling by activating a cooling-off period of 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or 90 days. During a cooling-off period your account remains active for withdrawals, but you cannot place bets, deposit funds, or access any casino game. Cooling-off periods take effect immediately and cannot be cancelled before they expire.
Self-Exclusion
If you feel that gambling has become a serious problem, you can permanently self-exclude your 299db account. Self-exclusion is irreversible for the duration chosen — options range from 6 months to permanent closure. During self-exclusion, your account is fully locked, you will be removed from all marketing communications, and you will not be permitted to re-register until the exclusion period has ended and a formal review has been completed.
Account Activity Review
Access a full, transparent record of your gambling activity at any time through your account history. View your complete deposit and withdrawal history, total bets placed, total losses, and bonus activity over any date range. Reviewing your own account history is one of the most powerful ways to stay informed about your actual gambling behaviour rather than relying on memory or perception.

How to Activate
Your Safety Tools

All responsible gaming tools at 299db are built directly into your account settings — no need to contact support to get started. Here is how to access them in four simple steps.

1
Log In to Your 299db Account

Visit 299db.io and sign in with your registered mobile number and password. If you have forgotten your password, use the account recovery option on the login page to regain access before proceeding.

2
Navigate to Account Settings

Click on your account avatar or username in the top-right corner of the screen to open the account menu. Select "Account Settings" from the dropdown menu to access your full account management panel.

3
Select "Responsible Gaming"

Within Account Settings, locate the "Responsible Gaming" tab. This section gives you access to all available player-protection tools: deposit limits, session time limits, reality check alerts, cooling-off periods, and self-exclusion.

4
Activate Your Chosen Tool

Select the tool you wish to activate, set your preferred parameters, and confirm. Changes that restrict your play (reducing limits, activating cooling-off, initiating self-exclusion) take effect immediately. Changes that loosen restrictions require a mandatory review delay of at least 48 hours.

If you are unable to access your account settings for any reason, or if you need to activate a self-exclusion urgently, contact our 24/7 support team directly at [email protected] and our team will apply the restriction to your account immediately.

Recognising the Warning Signs

Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of income, experience, or intent. Many players develop unhealthy habits gradually, without noticing the shift. Recognising the early warning signs is the first step toward taking back control.

Ask yourself honestly whether any of the following describe your recent experience with gambling:

Spending more money than you originally planned on gambling
Gambling to try to recover money you have already lost
Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when you are not gambling
Lying to family or friends about the amount of time or money spent gambling
Borrowing money or selling possessions in order to gamble
Neglecting work, study, family, or personal responsibilities because of gambling
Needing to gamble with larger and larger amounts to feel the same level of excitement
Making repeated unsuccessful attempts to cut back or stop gambling
If You Recognise These Signs — Act Now

If two or more of the above descriptions match your recent experience, we strongly encourage you to use 299db's self-exclusion or cooling-off tools today, and to reach out to our support team. You do not need to be in crisis to ask for help. Early intervention makes a significant difference. Our support agents are trained to assist you with compassion and without judgement.

Quick Self-Assessment

The following questions are based on widely recognised responsible gambling assessment frameworks. They are provided for personal reflection only — not as a clinical diagnosis. Read each question and answer honestly for yourself.

Personal Gambling Behaviour Assessment
Answer each question with "Yes", "Sometimes", or "No" in your own mind
1
Have you ever gambled with money that was set aside for essential expenses such as rent, food, bills, or school fees?
2
Have you ever felt the need to return to gambling the next day to win back money you lost the day before?
3
Have you ever borrowed money from a friend, family member, or financial institution specifically to fund gambling activity?
4
Have you experienced significant mood changes — such as depression, anxiety, or anger — related to gambling wins or losses?
5
Have you ever hidden gambling activity or losses from people who are close to you?
6
Have you ever felt that gambling controls you, rather than you controlling gambling?
7
Have you tried to stop or reduce your gambling on your own and found it difficult or impossible to do so?
8
Has gambling caused significant problems in your personal relationships, professional life, or financial situation?
How to interpret your answers: If you answered "Yes" or "Sometimes" to two or more of these questions, your gambling behaviour may warrant closer attention. This does not mean you have a gambling disorder — but it does suggest that now is a good time to use 299db's built-in protection tools or to speak with our support team. If you answered "Yes" to four or more questions, we encourage you to consider activating self-exclusion and to seek guidance from a professional support service. All conversations with 299db support regarding responsible gaming are treated with complete confidentiality.

Getting Additional Help

299db's own support team is your first point of contact for any gambling-related concern. Our agents are trained in responsible gaming and available around the clock to help you access protection tools, discuss your account, or simply listen.

299db Live Support

Our 24/7 live chat support team is your fastest route to activating any responsible gaming tool. Contact us any time of day or night — in English — and we will respond immediately. Email: [email protected]

National Mental Health Helpline

Bangladesh's National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) provides counselling and referral services for individuals experiencing gambling-related distress. Speak to a qualified professional in a confidential setting.

Community Support Groups

Peer support networks in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, and other major cities provide safe, non-judgmental environments for individuals and families affected by problem gambling. Community support is one of the most effective recovery tools available.

Kaan Pete Roi Helpline

Kaan Pete Roi is Bangladesh's leading emotional support helpline, staffed by trained volunteers who provide empathetic listening for individuals experiencing distress, including gambling-related anxiety or depression. All calls are confidential.

Protecting Other People in Your Household

If you share a device or home network with family members — particularly children or younger adults — 299db strongly recommends using parental-control and content-filtering software to prevent access to gambling websites. Freely available tools such as Net Nanny, Qustodio, and built-in parental controls on Android and iOS devices can be configured to block gambling content at the network or device level.

Equally important: never share your 299db login credentials with another person. Your account is personal and the responsibility for activity on your account rests with you as the registered account holder. If you believe that another person has accessed your account without your permission, contact our support team immediately so that we can secure your account and investigate.

Responsible Gambling During Eid, Pohela Boishakh, and Festive Periods

Festive and holiday periods — including Eid ul-Fitr, Eid ul-Adha, Pohela Boishakh, Durga Puja, and public holidays such as Victory Day and Independence Day — are times when many players spend more time at home and may be more susceptible to extended gambling sessions. 299db encourages all players to set pre-emptive session time limits and deposit limits before festive periods begin, and to prioritise time with family and community over gambling activity during these occasions.

Promotional bonuses and special offers from 299db during festive periods are always subject to the same responsible gaming terms as regular promotions. No promotional mechanic will ever require you to gamble beyond a level that is comfortable for you in order to claim a reward.

Financial Safety Tips for 299db Players

Managing your gambling finances carefully is one of the most practical steps you can take toward sustainable play. Here are some straightforward guidelines that 299db recommends to all players in Bangladesh:

  • Decide on a fixed gambling budget — an amount you are genuinely comfortable losing entirely — before you log in, and never exceed it.
  • Use a dedicated bKash, Nagad, or Rocket mobile wallet for gambling transactions, kept separate from your everyday finances and funded only with your pre-agreed budget.
  • Never chase losses. Losses are a normal and expected part of gambling; chasing them almost always results in larger losses and greater distress.
  • Treat gambling winnings as a bonus, not as reliable income. Do not make financial plans that depend on gambling winnings.
  • Take regular breaks. Stand up, drink water, step outside. Physical breaks interrupt the psychological momentum that can lead to extended sessions.
  • Review your transaction history in your 299db account at the end of every month. Seeing the actual numbers in black and white is more informative than relying on your memory of individual sessions.
299db uses SSL-encrypted connections and secure payment processing via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and Upay. Your financial data is protected at every stage of the deposit and withdrawal process. If you ever notice suspicious activity on your 299db account, contact support immediately — we will freeze your account while we investigate.

Play Smart. Stay in Control.

Responsible gaming is not about playing less — it is about playing well. Set your limits, know your boundaries, and enjoy everything 299db has to offer within a framework that keeps you safe. Our team is here for you 24/7.
