01. What Is Responsible Gaming
Responsible gaming isn't just about following rules — it's a mindset. Betting is responsible when it stays a source of entertainment and doesn't spill over into other areas of your life.
At 7fb, responsible gaming means every member stays in control of their budget, time, and emotions. Win or lose, we want you to walk away with a clear head and your daily life unaffected.
Online betting is still relatively new in Bangladesh, and many people aren't fully aware of the risks involved. That's why 7fb has been committed to educating its members from the very beginning. Responsible gaming isn't just a page — it's a core value of our platform.
Keep in Mind
Betting is a form of entertainment, not a reliable source of income. Never wager more than you can afford to lose.
02. Recognising the Signs of Gambling Addiction
Betting addiction develops gradually – often without you even realizing it. There are some common warning signs you should watch out for.
Mental Signs
- Losing puts you in a terrible mood and triggers a strong urge to "win it back"
- Feeling restless or anxious when you're unable to bet
- A growing tendency to lie in order to hide losses
- Constantly thinking about betting
- Unable to Focus on Other Tasks
Behavioral Signs
- Betting beyond your budget by borrowing money or dipping into savings
- Repeatedly breaking the limits you set for yourself
- Placing more bets to try to win back what you've lost
- Spending more time betting and less time with family or friends
- Neglecting work or studies
If You Notice These Signs
If you recognise 2–3 of the signs above in yourself, take a break and reach out to 7fb support. Acknowledging the problem is the first step toward solving it.
03. Check Yourself – Ask the Honest Questions
Answer the following questions honestly about your own betting habits. This checklist will help you make an informed decision.
-
Are you betting money you can't afford to lose?
-
After a loss, do you place more bets the same day to try to win your money back?
-
Does your family know how much you're betting?
-
Have you ever skipped work or neglected important responsibilities to bet?
-
Do you feel restless or irritable when you're not betting?
-
Do you keep going past the limits you set for yourself?
If you answered "yes" to most of the questions above, it's time to take action. Use 7fb's protection tools and reach out to support if you need help.

05. How to Set Limits – Step by Step
Setting limits is straightforward. Just follow the steps below and your betting will be fully under control in a matter of minutes.
Set a Monthly Entertainment Budget
Decide how much you can afford to spend on entertainment each month — and never go beyond that amount.
Go to Account Settings
Log in, click the profile icon, and look for the "Responsible Gaming" section.
Set a Deposit Limit
Daily limit = monthly budget ÷ 30. Weekly limit = monthly budget ÷ 4. Use this simple formula.
Add Session Time & Loss Limits
Keep each session to a maximum of 1–2 hours. Daily losses should not exceed 20% of your total budget.
Review Every Month
Review your activity statement at the end of the month. If you've stuck to your budget, carry on with the same approach the following month.
06. Tips for Building Healthy Betting Habits
Setting limits is just the start – building healthy habits is what keeps betting a fun form of entertainment.
- Don't treat betting as a source of income. This is entertainment, not an investment.
- Take a break after a losing streak. Never place a bet when you're angry or feeling low.
- Never bet under the influence of alcohol or any other substance. Make decisions with a clear head.
- Have the discipline to walk away after a win. The "just one more" mindset is how most people lose everything.
- Do not create multiple accounts. This undermines the effectiveness of the protection tools.
- Keep your life fulfilling beyond betting. Make sure family, friends, and hobbies remain a priority.
- Check statements regularly. Keep track of what you're spending.
07. The Role of Family & Friends
Friends and family often notice a problem before the person themselves does. If you're concerned about someone, follow these steps.
- Speak openly, but don't judge. Approach the conversation with empathy, not anger or blame.
- Give specific examples. Start the conversation with "I've noticed…"
- Be ready to help. Reach out to 7fb support together.
- Set limits for yourself too. While helping them, make sure you're not putting yourself under undue strain.
