1xbdt believes betting should always stay fun. This guide covers all responsible gaming tools, how to spot warning signs, and where to get help — explained in plain, simple language.
Placing a friendly bet with a mate on a cricket match is a world apart from losing day after day and being unable to stop. 1xbdt believes betting is a form of entertainment — enjoyable when kept in check, harmful when control is lost.
Online betting is relatively new in Bangladesh, and many people don't realize when casual betting starts turning into an addiction. 1xbdt takes this seriously — the overall well-being of our users matters more to us than profit.
Responsible gaming is about more than setting limits — it's about knowing yourself, recognising the signs early, and having the courage to ask for help when you need it. This page brings together all of 1xbdt's safety tools and guidance in one place.
Keep in mind: Losing money from betting is normal — it is not a source of income. Only ever bet with money you can afford to lose without it affecting your life.
These tools let you stay in control of your own betting experience
Set your own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits. Once you reach your limit, the system will automatically block further deposits. Limits can be increased after a 72-hour waiting period — reductions take effect immediately.
Set how long you want to play in a single session on 1xbdt — 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours. You'll receive an automatic alert when time is up. Longer sessions impair decision-making — this tool helps prevent that.
Decide in advance the maximum you're willing to lose in a day or a week. Once that limit is reached, 1xbdt will automatically stop your betting — you won't be able to place another bet even if you want to.
Feeling angry or off-balance? Activate a cooling-off period — from 24 hours up to 30 days. You won't be able to log in to your account during this time. Come back when you're ready.
Need a longer break? Use self-exclusion — available from 6 months up to 5 years. Your account will be completely deactivated for the entire period and cannot be reopened before it ends.
At regular intervals, 1xbdt will notify you of how long you've been playing and your total wins or losses. Seeing this information helps you decide for yourself whether to keep going or take a break.
Betting addiction doesn't happen overnight. It builds gradually, and if left unchecked it can become serious. If any of the signs below apply to you, it's time to take notice.
Chasing losses: Chasing losses by betting more after a losing streak is the most dangerous pattern of all.
Playing beyond your budget: Betting with money earmarked for household bills, rent, or loan repayments is a clear warning sign.
Hiding it from family: Lying to your family about betting or playing in secret — that feeling alone is a sign something is wrong.
Restlessness when not betting: Feeling irritable, restless, or unable to focus when you can't bet.
Spending more time than planned: Spending hours watching odds or telling yourself 'just 10 more minutes' but being unable to stop.
Strained relationships: Withdrawing from friends, family, or work because of betting.

If you answered yes to 3 or more questions, please reach out to 1xbdt support — without hesitation, without judgment.
You can set limits easily from the 1xbdt dashboard. Just follow the steps below.
After logging in to 1xbdt, click the profile icon in the top right corner.
Go to the "Responsible Gaming" tab in your account settings.
Choose a deposit limit, loss limit, or session time limit — whichever you need.
Enter an amount you're comfortable with. Start low — you can always adjust later if needed.
Your limit will take effect immediately once confirmed. You will receive a confirmation message by SMS.
Lowering a limit takes effect immediately, but increasing one requires a 72-hour cooling period. This rule is there to protect you.
Sometimes the best decision is to stop altogether. Here are 1xbdt's break options.
Temporarily close your account for anywhere between 24 hours and 30 days. It reopens automatically once the period ends. This is especially useful for stopping impulsive bets made in anger or frustration.
Minimum 24 hours · Maximum 30 daysDesigned for long-term breaks. Your account is completely locked for anywhere between 6 months and 5 years. There is no way to unlock it before the period ends — and that is exactly what makes this tool so effective.
Minimum 6 months · Cannot be lifted before the period endsIf you want to stop betting altogether, you can permanently close your account. Contact support to request this — all your data will be deleted.
Permanent · Cannot be reopenedA betting problem doesn't only affect the individual — it impacts the whole family. Often, a family member is the first to notice that something isn't right. If someone close to you seems to be struggling with betting, it's important to know how you can help.
Start with a calm conversation, not accusations. Problem gambling is a mental health issue — not a moral failing. The person involved often knows they have a problem but doesn't feel safe enough to talk about it.
Family members can also contact 1xbdt support on someone's behalf — we will help add extra protection to that account. Any information shared will be kept strictly confidential.
Advice for Family Members: If someone tells you about a betting problem, listen first — don't judge. Stay by their side; this is not a battle anyone should face alone.
In Bangladesh, there is a social stigma around talking about mental health. Many people fear that admitting a problem will make others think less of them. In reality, it's the opposite — recognizing a problem and asking for help is the most courageous thing you can do.
1xbdt's support team is trained and guarantees complete confidentiality. What you share will only be used to help resolve your situation — there is no judgment, and nothing will be disclosed to anyone else.
If the problem runs deeper and professional help is needed, contact the mental health unit at your nearest hospital. In Bangladesh, Kaan Pete Roi (01779-554391) and the Kishore Kishori Helpline are among the organisations providing support.
If you're going through a mental health crisis, don't wait — reach out to someone you trust. 1xbdt support is also here as a first step.
Follow these guidelines and betting will always stay within the bounds of entertainment.
