Responsible Gaming at 1897 – A Commitment to a Safe & Healthy Experience
1897 believes gaming should be fun, not a burden. We are committed to the mental and financial wellbeing of every user. This page covers everything you need to know about responsible gaming.
Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
1897 is more than an entertainment platform — it's a space built on responsibility, where every user can enjoy gaming at their own pace and within their own means. We believe mindful gaming can be part of a fulfilling life, but it should never become the center of it.
At 1897, responsible gaming isn't just a policy document. We actively provide users with practical tools, clear information, and accessible support. Gaming at 1897 should be a source of enjoyment — never stress.
Recognize the signs of risky behavior
Sometimes gaming habits can spiral out of control. Watch out for these warning signs:
- Feeling a strong urge to keep playing in order to chase losses.
- Spending more time or money than you intended.
- Being unable to stop gaming, or feeling restless and irritable when you try.
- Hiding your gaming habits from family or friends.
- Neglecting daily tasks, studies, or professional responsibilities because of gaming.
- Continuing to game by saving up or borrowing money even during financial hardship.
- Feeling irritable or low when not gaming.
If you notice any of these signs in yourself, take a break immediately and seek support if needed.
Tips for Setting Time & Budget Limits
Set aside a fixed amount in BDT (৳) exclusively for gaming — an amount you can afford to lose without it affecting your daily life. Never go beyond this budget.
Decide in advance how much time you'll spend gaming each day. Use a timer or alarm — and stop as soon as it goes off.
If you reach a set loss amount, stop playing for the day. Chasing losses by placing more bets typically makes things worse.
Use the Self-Control Tools
1897 offers a range of features to help users stay in control:
- Set deposit limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits that are enforced automatically.
- Taking a Break: You can temporarily suspend your account for a period of time — no logins will be possible during this time.
- Long-Term Break: If you need a complete break from gaming for weeks or months, you can request that your account be suspended for a set period.
- Permanent Exclusion: If you feel you can no longer control your gaming, you can request a permanent account closure.
Contact [email protected] to activate any of these features.
Keep Minors Safe
1897 strictly prohibits anyone under 18 from accessing the platform. Age verification is carried out during registration. We ask all parents and guardians:
- Enable parental controls or browser filters on shared family devices.
- Keep your login credentials and password out of reach of children.
- Enable PIN lock on your mobile banking apps (bKash, Nagad).
- Try to avoid gaming in front of children as much as possible.
- Take advantage of gaming site blocking tools on your child's devices.
If you suspect a minor is using your account, notify us immediately and change your password.
Life Balance & Professional Support
Gaming is just a small part of life. Spend time with family, pursue your hobbies, stay physically active, and focus on your professional goals. When gaming starts to upset that balance, it's time to take action.
You don't have to face a gaming addiction alone. Talk openly with the people close to you. If needed, consult a mental health professional or counselor. Mental health services in Bangladesh are becoming increasingly accessible — asking for help is a sign of courage, not weakness.
