Watch Out for These Warning Signs
When online gaming shifts from a habit to a problem, certain signs tend to emerge. If you notice any of these in yourself or someone you know, take action right away.
Financial Pressure
Spending beyond your set budget, betting with borrowed money, or repeatedly chasing losses to try to win back what you've lost.
Loss of Time Control
Spending more time gaming than planned, skipping sleep or meals to keep playing.
Social Withdrawal
Spending less time with family and friends in favour of gaming, or keeping your gaming habits a secret from those close to you.
Emotional Instability
Feeling restless or irritable when not playing, getting overly excited after a win or deeply frustrated after a loss.
Loss of Focus
Being unable to focus on studies or work, neglecting responsibilities in favour of gaming.
Unable to Stop
Repeatedly deciding to stop gaming but being unable to quit or stick to your limits.
Set Your Time and Spending Limits in Advance
The most effective approach to responsible gaming is setting time and spending limits before you start playing. Allocate a fixed amount in BDT — one you can afford to lose without it affecting your daily life. Once that amount is gone, stop gaming for the day.
Similarly, decide in advance how long you'll game each day or week, and take a break once that time is up. You can use your phone's alarm or timer to help. Remember, gaming is for entertainment — not the main purpose of life.
-
Only spend from your entertainment budget — never from savings or essential expenses
-
When your time is up, always take a break — step away and skip the next round.
-
Review your week — track how much you've spent and how much time you've put in
How to Use the Self-Control Features
Deposit Limit
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit on your account. Once a limit is set, it cannot be increased before the designated time period ends — helping you stay in control of your finances.
Break Feature
Temporarily suspend your account for a set period — anywhere from 24 hours to several weeks. This cooling-off break gives you the space to step back and make clearer decisions.
Self-Exclusion
For an extended break, choose self-exclusion. Once activated, your account will be fully suspended for the specified period, and creating a new account during that time is strictly prohibited.
Support Assistance

Protecting Minors — No Compromises
No one under the age of 18 is permitted to create an account or participate in gaming on parimatch. Age is verified at registration, and identity documents may be requested in cases of doubt. Protecting minors is our highest priority.
If you have children or teenagers at home, make sure they cannot access your devices or account. Use screen locks and app locks on your smartphone. Never share your parimatch account password with anyone.
Remember: Using someone else's account or creating an account on behalf of a minor is a direct violation of our Terms and Conditions and may result in permanent account suspension.
Maintain a Healthy Life Balance
Gaming should be just a small part of your life — alongside family, friends, work, studies, and healthy hobbies. If you find that gaming is starting to affect other important areas of your daily life, that's a warning sign.
Follow a few simple tips for healthy gaming habits. Spend time with family or friends before you start playing. Make room for physical exercise, a walk outdoors, or other hobbies. Gaming should never be your only escape from loneliness or stress.
Watching cricket in Bangladesh, hanging out with friends, sharing a meal with family — these are life's real joys. Gaming can complement those moments, but it should never replace them.

Asking for Help Is a Sign of Strength
If gaming feels like it's getting out of hand, reaching out for help is a brave and responsible decision. The parimatch support team can assist you in setting account limits, taking a break, or activating self-exclusion — without judgment, and in complete confidence.
Beyond that, talk to a trusted family member or friend. Seeking advice from a mental health professional is never a sign of weakness — it's a sign of self-care. Various mental health organisations across Bangladesh offer professional support.
