At 88gj, we believe that entertainment should never come at the cost of your wellbeing. Our responsible gaming framework is built to give every player across Pakistan — from Karachi to Islamabad, Lahore to Faisalabad — the tools, knowledge, and support they need to keep their gaming experience positive, controlled, and within safe limits.
88gj is strictly for adults aged 21 and above.
Age verification is mandatory for all accounts.
Online gaming at 88gj is designed to be a source of entertainment — a way to enjoy cricket betting, slots, Teen Patti, live dealer tables, and more from the comfort of your home in Pakistan. The vast majority of our players enjoy the platform responsibly and within their means. But we also understand that for a small number of individuals, gambling can become problematic, and that is exactly why responsible gaming is a core pillar of everything we do at 88gj — not an afterthought.
Whether you are a seasoned bettor tracking PSL odds or a new player exploring the slots for the first time, the same protections apply to you. 88gj has invested significantly in responsible gaming infrastructure: from real-time account monitoring and automated alerts, to a comprehensive suite of player-controlled tools that let you set boundaries on your own terms. You are always in control.
This page explains our full responsible gaming programme, the self-exclusion and limit-setting tools available in your 88gj account, the warning signs of problem gambling to watch out for, and where to seek help if you or someone you know needs support. Please read it carefully — your wellbeing matters to us far more than your next bet.
Our responsible gaming programme is built on six core commitments. Every 88gj player benefits from these protections automatically — no additional steps required.
All new 88gj accounts are subject to mandatory age verification before any deposits or gameplay are permitted. We use a multi-step KYC process — including CNIC validation — to ensure our platform is never accessible to anyone under the age of 21. Underage gambling is not tolerated under any circumstances.
You can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from your 88gj account settings at any time. Once set, limits take effect immediately and cannot be increased without a mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period. Decreasing your limit, however, takes effect instantly — because we always err on the side of caution.
If you feel your gambling is getting out of hand, you can self-exclude your 88gj account for a period of your choosing — from 30 days to permanent closure. During self-exclusion, your account is locked, all marketing communications are suspended, and you cannot create a new account using the same identity or payment details.
88gj allows you to set customisable session time reminders so you always know how long you have been playing. When your reminder triggers, a notification appears on-screen prompting you to take a break. Staying aware of your session duration is one of the simplest and most effective responsible gaming habits you can build.
In addition to deposit limits, 88gj offers loss limits — a cap on the total amount you can lose within a given time period. Once your loss limit is reached, your account is automatically paused for the remainder of that period. This provides a powerful safety net that works even when emotions run high during a losing streak.
Our responsible gaming team uses automated monitoring systems to identify patterns of behaviour that may indicate problem gambling — such as sudden increases in bet size, chasing losses, or unusually long sessions. When these patterns are detected, our team may reach out proactively to check on your wellbeing and offer support resources.
Every one of the following tools is available free of charge inside your 88gj account. You do not need to contact support to use them — they are built directly into your account settings panel and can be activated in seconds.
Using these tools is a sign of strength, not weakness. Thousands of responsible players across Lahore, Karachi, and Islamabad use them regularly to keep their 88gj experience healthy and enjoyable.
Activating self-exclusion on 88gj takes less than two minutes. If at any point you struggle to find the option, our live support team is available 24/7 to assist you — and they are trained to handle these requests with sensitivity and without judgement.
Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of income, background, or experience. These are some of the most common warning signs to watch out for in yourself or someone close to you:
Continuing to gamble to try to win back money you have already lost, often increasing bet sizes in the process.
Taking loans, borrowing from family, or using credit to fund gambling activity beyond your normal budget.
Missing work, neglecting family commitments, or losing sleep because of time spent gambling online.
Feeling the need to conceal how much time or money you spend on gambling from family or friends.
Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when not gambling, or using gambling to escape from personal problems.
Repeatedly trying to cut down or stop gambling but finding yourself unable to follow through on that intention.
Ask yourself the following questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to two or more of them, we strongly encourage you to use the responsible gaming tools in your 88gj account or contact our support team for a confidential conversation.
If you or someone you know is struggling with problem gambling, professional support is available. The following resources offer confidential guidance to players across Pakistan.
Our in-house responsible gaming specialists are available around the clock. Reach them via live chat on the 88gj platform or by email — all conversations are treated with complete confidentiality.
Live Chat: 24 hours / 7 days
