Responsible Gaming at 35bd — Play Smart, Play Safe

For thousands of players across Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and Faisalabad, 35bd is the platform of choice for cricket betting, live casino, and slot games. We take that trust seriously. Responsible gaming is not a checkbox on our licence application — it is a genuine commitment woven into the 35bd platform from the ground up.

Strictly Adults Only

The 35bd platform is available exclusively to players aged 21 years and over. Age verification is mandatory for all accounts before any withdrawal is processed. Underage gambling is illegal and 35bd has zero tolerance for it.

Deposit limits — daily, weekly, and monthly PKR caps you set yourself
Session time reminders and hard session duration limits
Reality checks — on-screen alerts showing real session time and net activity
Cooling-off periods — temporary account pauses from 24 hours up to 6 weeks
Permanent self-exclusion — close your account indefinitely with one request

Your Safety Tools on 35bd

Every registered 35bd player has immediate access to these responsible gaming controls, available directly from your account dashboard at any time — no waiting period, no approval needed.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum PKR deposit amount for any 24-hour period, 7-day week, or calendar month. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Reducing your limit takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a 7-day cooling-off period before it activates — protecting you from impulsive decisions.

Session Time Limits

Define the maximum duration of any single 35bd gaming session. When your time limit is reached, you will receive a clear on-screen notification and the session will end automatically. Combined with reality check alerts — which pop up at regular intervals to show how long you have been playing — this keeps time spent on 35bd fully in your hands.

Reality Checks

35bd can display a regular pop-up — at intervals you choose (every 15, 30, or 60 minutes) — showing your total session time, net gaming balance, and a prompt to continue or end your session. This simple tool breaks the immersive flow of gaming and reconnects you with the real picture of how long you have been playing and at what cost.

Cooling-Off Periods

If you feel you need a break from the 35bd platform but are not ready for full self-exclusion, a cooling-off period temporarily suspends your account. You can choose a period of 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, 2 weeks, or up to 6 weeks. During a cooling-off period, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets on 35bd. Promotional communications are automatically paused.

Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is a formal commitment to stop gambling on 35bd for a defined period — minimum 6 months, maximum 5 years — or permanently. Once activated, your account is closed immediately and cannot be reopened during the exclusion period. 35bd will also remove you from all marketing lists. This is the most powerful responsible gaming tool available on the platform.

Loss Limits

In addition to deposit controls, 35bd allows you to set a maximum net loss limit over any 24-hour, weekly, or monthly period. Once your net loss reaches the limit you have set, your betting access is paused for the remainder of that period. This is especially useful for sports bettors tracking PSL markets who want a hard financial boundary without closing their account entirely.

How to Self-Exclude on 35bd

Requesting self-exclusion on 35bd is straightforward and takes effect immediately. You do not need to justify your decision or speak to an agent if you prefer not to. The steps below walk you through the process.

Important: Once self-exclusion is activated, it cannot be reversed during the chosen exclusion period — even if you contact support and request it. This is by design. The cooling-off is there to protect you, not restrict you unfairly.
Need help right now? If you feel you cannot wait, contact the 35bd support team directly and request immediate account suspension. Our team is available around the clock and will action your request the same day.
1
Log in to your 35bd account

Visit 35bd.today and log in using your registered Pakistani mobile number or email address. If you are having trouble accessing your account, contact the 35bd support team for immediate assistance.

2
Navigate to Account Settings

Click your profile icon in the top-right corner of the 35bd platform and select "Account Settings" from the dropdown menu. This is your central hub for all account preferences, security settings, and responsible gaming tools.

3
Select Responsible Gaming

Within Account Settings, locate the "Responsible Gaming" section. You will find all available tools here — deposit limits, session limits, cooling-off, and self-exclusion. Select "Self-Exclusion" to proceed.

4
Choose your exclusion period

Select your preferred exclusion duration: 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, or permanent self-exclusion. Read the terms carefully. Permanent exclusion cannot be reversed under any circumstances — your account will be permanently closed.

5
Confirm and activate

Confirm your decision. Your 35bd account will be suspended immediately. You will receive a confirmation to your registered email or mobile number. You will be removed from all marketing lists and cannot deposit, log in, or bet for the duration of your chosen exclusion period.

6
Seek additional support if needed

Self-exclusion is a brave and positive step. If you feel you need additional support beyond the 35bd platform, please reach out to an independent problem gambling helpline or counselling service in your area. Talking to someone who understands can make a real difference.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually — it does not always look like the dramatic version you might see in films. In Pakistan, as anywhere else, it can quietly affect family relationships, finances, and mental wellbeing before the person affected even recognises it as a problem. The following are established warning signs worth being honest with yourself about.

1
Chasing Losses

Continuing to bet in order to recover money already lost — telling yourself "one more bet" to get back to even. This is one of the most reliable early indicators of problematic gambling behaviour.

2
Gambling with Money You Cannot Afford to Lose

Using money set aside for rent, groceries, family expenses, or utility bills to fund gambling deposits. If gambling is competing with essential financial obligations, it has become a problem.

3
Hiding Gambling Activity

Concealing the amount of time or money spent gambling from family members, deleting transaction histories, or lying about activities. Secrecy around gambling is a significant warning sign.

4
Inability to Stop or Set Limits

Repeatedly attempting to reduce gambling or set financial limits and failing to stick to them — finding that willpower alone is not enough to control the behaviour.

5
Gambling to Escape Stress or Emotions

Using gambling as a primary coping mechanism for anxiety, depression, work pressure, family conflict, or other emotional difficulties. When gambling becomes an emotional escape rather than entertainment, it has crossed into harmful territory.

6
Borrowing Money to Gamble

Seeking loans from friends, family members, or formal lenders specifically to fund gambling activity — or using credit facilities to deposit on gambling platforms.

Take the Self-Assessment

Answer these questions honestly. They are based on internationally recognised problem gambling screening tools used by licensed gaming operators worldwide. If you answer "yes" to three or more of these questions, consider speaking to a professional support service or using the 35bd self-exclusion tool.

Have you ever felt the need to bet with larger and larger amounts of money to get the same feeling of excitement?
Have you ever become restless, irritable, or anxious when you tried to reduce or stop gambling?
Have you made repeated unsuccessful efforts to control, cut back, or stop gambling?
Have you ever gambled as a way of escaping problems or relieving feelings of helplessness, guilt, anxiety, or depression?
After losing money gambling, have you often returned another day to get even?
Have you lied to family members or others to conceal the extent of your gambling?
Have you ever jeopardised or lost a significant relationship, job, or educational opportunity because of gambling?
Have you ever relied on others to provide money to relieve a desperate financial situation caused by gambling?
If you answered yes to 3 or more: Please consider using the 35bd self-exclusion tool immediately and seeking support from a qualified counsellor or problem gambling helpline. You are not alone and help is available.

Set Your PKR Limits

35bd recommends that every player using the platform — whether you are a casual cricket bettor watching PSL from Lahore or a regular slots player in Karachi — sets a personal PKR deposit limit before their first session. It takes less than a minute and puts a firm financial boundary around your entertainment budget.

Limits are available across daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes, and can always be reduced instantly. Increases are subject to a mandatory 7-day review period — this deliberate friction is there to prevent emotional, impulsive increases during a losing streak.

Gambling should fit your entertainment budget — not your full income. A reasonable rule of thumb: your monthly gambling budget on 35bd should be an amount you are genuinely comfortable losing in full, without it affecting your household or financial obligations.

Protecting Young People

35bd enforces strict age verification and strongly encourages parents and guardians to take additional steps to prevent underage access to gambling platforms.

Mandatory KYC

All 35bd accounts must complete CNIC-based age verification before any withdrawal is approved. Players who cannot verify their age are restricted from withdrawing funds.

Zero Tolerance Policy

Any account found to belong to a person under 21 years of age is immediately suspended, all funds are returned, and the matter is escalated to 35bd's compliance team for review.

Parental Controls

Parents and guardians are encouraged to use internet filtering and parental control software on shared devices to prevent access to gambling platforms by minors in the household.

Report Underage Access

If you believe a minor is using the 35bd platform, report it to our support team immediately at [email protected]. We will investigate and act without delay.

For Parents: If you are concerned about a young person's access to gambling platforms, consider installing reputable parental control software such as Qustodio, Net Nanny, or OpenDNS Family Shield. These tools can block access to gambling sites entirely across all devices on your home network.

Independent Support Services

35bd's responsible gaming tools are designed to help you manage your account, but they are not a substitute for professional counselling if you are experiencing problem gambling. The organisations listed below offer confidential support, free of charge.

GamCare (International)

GamCare is a leading UK-based charity providing information, advice, and support for anyone affected by problem gambling. Their National Gambling Helpline operates 24/7 and offers free, confidential telephone and online chat support. GamCare also offers a network of face-to-face counselling services and a moderated online forum where individuals can share experiences and receive peer support.

Gamblers Anonymous

Gamblers Anonymous (GA) is a fellowship of men and women who share their experiences, strength, and hope with each other to solve their common problem and help others recover from a gambling addiction. GA meetings are held worldwide — including online meetings accessible from Pakistan — and follow a 12-step recovery programme similar to Alcoholics Anonymous.

BeGambleAware

BeGambleAware is the leading UK charity committed to minimising gambling-related harm. Their website offers a comprehensive library of information, self-assessment tools, and direct links to free treatment services. BeGambleAware also funds the National Gambling Treatment Service, which provides specialist face-to-face and online support for people with gambling problems.

Gordon Moody Association

Gordon Moody is a UK-based charity that provides residential treatment programmes for people seriously affected by problem gambling. They also offer online cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) courses and a gambling therapy residential programme. While based in the UK, their online resources are accessible internationally, including from Pakistan.

All of the above organisations are independent of 35bd. They exist solely to support individuals affected by problem gambling. Reaching out to them does not affect your 35bd account status in any way — your privacy is fully protected.
