Tools to Keep You in Control

ak71 provides a comprehensive range of responsible gaming tools that put you in charge of your own experience. All tools are accessible directly from your account settings and take effect immediately upon activation.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on the amount you can deposit into your ak71 account. Once a limit is set, it activates immediately and cannot be increased for a mandatory 7-day cooling period. Reductions take effect right away with no waiting period. We recommend all new players configure a deposit limit before their first session — it is the single most effective budgeting tool available.

Session Time Limits

Define the maximum length of a single gaming session. When your chosen session time elapses, the platform will display a clear on-screen reminder and prompt you to decide whether to continue. This feature is particularly useful for players who lose track of time during extended cricket betting or live casino sessions. You can set limits in increments of 30 minutes up to a maximum of 6 hours per session.

Time-Out / Cool-Off Period

Take a structured break from the platform for a defined period — 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out, your account is suspended: you cannot log in, place bets, or make deposits. Any pending withdrawal requests will still be processed normally. Time-outs are ideal when you feel you need a short rest without committing to a full self-exclusion. They activate within minutes of your request.

Self-Exclusion

For players who feel their gambling is becoming a serious concern, ak71 offers a formal self-exclusion option for periods of 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, or 5 years. Self-exclusion is a firm commitment — your account is fully closed, your account balance is returned to your bKash or Nagad wallet, and you will be prevented from opening a new account for the duration of the exclusion period. Contact [email protected] to request immediate self-exclusion.

Loss Limits

Set a ceiling on the total amount you are willing to lose over a rolling daily, weekly, or monthly period. Once your loss limit is reached, the platform will automatically prevent further wagering until the period resets. Loss limits give you a hard financial boundary independent of your deposit history — so even if your account balance technically allows more wagering, the platform will stop you at your pre-set threshold.

Reality Check Reminders

Enable periodic on-screen reality check notifications that display how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered in the current session. Reminders can be set to appear every 15, 30, or 60 minutes. At each check, you can choose to continue your session, review your activity summary, or exit the platform. Reality checks are a lightweight but effective way to maintain awareness during longer gaming sessions on ak71.


Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually and is often hard to recognise from the inside. The following signs may indicate that gambling has moved from entertainment to a harmful pattern. If you identify with three or more of these, we strongly encourage you to use ak71's self-exclusion tools or speak to a support professional.

You are not alone. Many players across Bangladesh experience periods where gambling feels harder to control. Reaching out is a sign of strength, not weakness. ak71's support team is available around the clock at [email protected] and treats all responsible gaming communications with complete confidentiality.

01

Chasing Losses: Continuing to bet in an attempt to recover money you have already lost, often increasing your wager sizes in the process.

02

Gambling with Essential Funds: Using money set aside for rent, groceries, utility bills, or other living expenses to fund gambling activity.

03

Inability to Stop: Feeling unable to stop playing even when you consciously want to, or repeatedly failing to stick to time or spending limits you set for yourself.

04

Concealing Your Gambling: Hiding the extent of your gambling activity from family members, friends, or colleagues out of shame or fear of their reaction.

05

Borrowing to Gamble: Taking loans, using credit cards, or borrowing money from family or friends specifically to fund gambling sessions.

06

Neglecting Responsibilities: Missing work, neglecting family duties, or withdrawing from social life in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, or elsewhere because of time or money spent on gambling.

07

Emotional Distress Around Gambling: Feeling persistent anxiety, irritability, depression, or restlessness that is directly connected to gambling wins, losses, or the urge to play.


How to Take Action Right Now

If you are concerned about your gambling habits, acting sooner rather than later makes a significant difference. Follow these steps to access the protection tools and support resources available to you through ak71.

24/7 English Support

Our dedicated responsible gaming support team is available around the clock, every day of the year, including during Eid, Pohela Boishakh, and public holidays. All communications are handled in English and treated with strict confidentiality.

Email: [email protected]

Response Time: Within 1 hour for responsible gaming matters

Time Zone: Bangladesh Standard Time (BST, UTC+6)

01

Log In to Your ak71 Account

Access your account via the ak71 Login page. All responsible gaming tools are located in the Account Settings section under the "Responsible Gaming" tab. If you cannot log in and need urgent help, skip directly to Step 5 and contact support via email.

02

Set a Deposit or Loss Limit

Navigate to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Limits. Choose a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit and a corresponding loss limit. Select an amount that reflects your genuine entertainment budget — not an amount you can afford to lose in an emergency. Limits take effect immediately upon saving.

03

Activate a Session Time Limit or Reality Check

In the same Responsible Gaming settings panel, enable session time limits and reality check reminders. Set your preferred session length and reminder frequency. These tools run passively in the background during every future session and require no further action from you once activated.

04

Request a Time-Out or Self-Exclusion

If you need a break, select a time-out period of 24 hours to 30 days from the Responsible Gaming panel. For longer or permanent exclusion, select the self-exclusion option or email [email protected] with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request". Your account will be suspended within minutes and your balance returned to your registered bKash or Nagad number.

05

Contact the Support Team Directly

If you prefer to speak with a real person rather than navigate account settings alone, email [email protected] at any time. Our responsible gaming team will guide you through the available options, apply protective measures on your behalf, and connect you with appropriate external resources if needed. You will never be judged or discouraged from seeking help.

06

Seek External Professional Support

For players who feel they need professional counselling beyond what a gaming platform can provide, we strongly encourage speaking with a qualified mental health or financial counselling professional in Bangladesh. Family members and trusted friends can also be a valuable source of support. Taking this step demonstrates genuine commitment to your long-term wellbeing.


Strictly 21+ — No Exceptions

ak71 enforces a strict minimum age of 21 for all registered players. This is a firm requirement with no exceptions, and we take every reasonable measure to prevent underage access to the platform.

Identity Verification

KYC at Registration

Every player registering an ak71 account is required to complete a Know Your Customer (KYC) identity verification process before their first withdrawal is processed. This involves submitting a government-issued photo identification document — such as a Bangladesh National Identity Card (NID) or passport — to confirm both identity and age. Accounts that cannot be verified are suspended until documentation is provided.

Underage Access

What Happens if a Minor Registers

If ak71 discovers that a player is under the age of 21 — through KYC review, document inconsistency, or a report from a parent or guardian — the account is immediately closed, all winnings are voided, and any deposited funds are returned to the originating bKash or Nagad account. We do not retain any funds associated with underage accounts beyond the amount originally deposited.

Parental Controls

Protecting Young People at Home

If you are a parent or guardian and are concerned that a young person in your household may be accessing gambling platforms, we recommend installing device-level parental control software on shared computers and mobile devices. Additionally, keep your ak71 login credentials private and never share your account access with family members. If you believe a minor has accessed ak71, contact [email protected] immediately — we will act without delay.


Responsible Gaming FAQs

Answers to the questions our Bangladesh players most commonly ask about responsible gaming tools, self-exclusion, and player protection at ak71.

For questions not covered here, visit our full FAQ page or contact the support team at [email protected] at any time.

Log in to your ak71 account and navigate to Account Settings, then select the Responsible Gaming tab. Under the Limits section, you will find options to set daily, weekly, and monthly deposit limits in BDT. Enter your preferred amount and confirm. The limit takes effect immediately. To increase a limit, a mandatory 7-day review period applies to prevent impulsive decisions. Reductions apply instantly.

Self-exclusion is a firm commitment and cannot be reversed during the chosen exclusion period. Once the period expires — whether 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, or 5 years — you may contact [email protected] to request account reactivation. ak71 will require you to complete a brief responsible gaming review before reactivation is approved. There is no automatic reopening; you must actively initiate the process.

Any eligible balance in your ak71 account at the time of self-exclusion will be returned to your registered bKash or Nagad mobile wallet within 3–5 business days. Pending withdrawal requests in progress at the time of exclusion will also be completed normally. Any active bonus balance that has not yet met wagering requirements will be forfeited in accordance with the ak71 Terms & Conditions.

Yes. A time-out is a short-term break lasting between 24 hours and 30 days, intended for players who need a temporary pause. Your account exists but is inactive, and you can return automatically once the period ends. Self-exclusion is a longer-term commitment of 6 months to 5 years and is intended for players with a more serious concern about their gambling behaviour. Self-exclusion requires active reapplication to reverse, even after the period ends.

ak71 requires all players to complete a Know Your Customer (KYC) identity verification process that includes submission of a government-issued photo ID — such as a Bangladesh NID or passport — before withdrawal requests are processed. The KYC review includes verification of the player's date of birth against the submitted document. Accounts where age cannot be verified to be 21 or above are suspended until compliant documentation is provided.

Absolutely. All responsible gaming communications — including deposit limit requests, time-out activations, self-exclusion requests, and support conversations — are treated with the highest level of confidentiality. This information is never shared with third parties for marketing or commercial purposes and is accessible only to the specific support staff handling your case. Your privacy is protected in accordance with the ak71 Privacy Policy.
