at 199bat

Gaming at 199bat is designed to be a source of entertainment — not financial stress.

Adults aged 18 and above only.

Our Commitment
Gaming Should Always Be Fun

At 199bat, responsible gaming is not a legal footnote — it is a fundamental part of how the platform is built and operated. We serve a large and growing community of players across Bangladesh, from Dhaka and Chittagong to Sylhet, Khulna, and Rajshahi, and we take seriously our obligation to every one of those players to provide an environment that is fair, transparent, and genuinely designed with their wellbeing in mind.

Gambling is a form of entertainment. Like any form of entertainment, it carries the risk of being pursued to excess. The responsible gaming tools available on 199bat are designed to help you set clear personal boundaries before problems arise — and to provide a straightforward path to support if you ever feel those boundaries have been crossed.

All players on the 199bat platform must be 18 years of age or older. This is a non-negotiable requirement. Age verification is conducted as part of the account lifecycle, and any account found to belong to a person under the age of 18 is permanently closed immediately. If you are a parent or guardian concerned that a minor in your household may be accessing online gaming platforms, we encourage you to make use of parental control software and to speak openly with young people about the risks associated with gambling.

The following sections explain in plain terms what tools are available to you, how to access them, and how to recognise the early warning signs that gaming may be becoming a problem.

Important Notice: If gambling is causing you or someone you know financial hardship, emotional distress, or relationship difficulties, please reach out to the 199bat support team at [email protected] immediately. We can activate protective measures on your account within hours of your request.

Responsible gaming at 199bat also means that we will never pressure you to deposit more than you intended, never send you promotional communications designed to target vulnerable players, and never make it difficult for you to reduce your activity or close your account. Your control over your gaming experience is absolute, and our team is trained to facilitate any request you make — no questions asked, no waiting periods on protective restrictions.

We also encourage all players to approach every gaming session with a clear budget in mind. Decide in advance the maximum amount you are comfortable spending during that session, treat that amount as the entertainment cost of the session regardless of the outcome, and never chase losses by depositing additional funds beyond your predetermined limit. These simple habits, practised consistently, are the most effective form of responsible gaming.

Key Responsible Gaming Principles

  • Only gamble with money you can afford to lose
  • Set a budget before each session and stick to it
  • Never borrow money to fund gambling activity
  • Do not gamble to recover previous losses
  • Take regular breaks during gaming sessions
  • Keep gaming separate from work and family obligations
  • Treat winnings as a bonus, not expected income
  • Never gamble when under the influence of alcohol

18+ Age Requirement

The 199bat platform is strictly for adults aged 18 and above. We verify player age at key points in the account lifecycle. Underage gambling is illegal and harmful. If you believe a minor is using this platform, contact [email protected] immediately.

Player Protection Tools
Take Control of Your Gaming

199bat provides a full suite of account management tools that you can activate at any time. These tools are designed to give you meaningful, enforceable control over your gaming activity — no bureaucracy, no delays on protective measures.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum deposit amount on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once a deposit limit is active, it cannot be increased until a mandatory cooling-off period has passed — protecting you from impulsive top-ups during a losing session.

Self-Exclusion

Request a temporary or permanent self-exclusion from the 199bat platform at any time by contacting support. A temporary exclusion can be set for periods of 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, or 6 months. Permanent exclusions are irrevocable.

Session Time-Out

Activate a time-out on your account for a short cooling-off period — from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. During a time-out, you cannot log in to the platform. This tool is ideal if you feel you need a short break without a full self-exclusion.

Loss Limits

Define the maximum amount you are willing to lose within a given time period. When your net loss reaches that threshold, further betting is blocked until the limit period resets. Loss limits can be set lower at any time and take effect immediately.

Reality Check Reminders

Enable periodic on-screen reminders that display how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered during the current session. Reality checks help maintain perspective during extended gaming sessions and encourage mindful play.

24/7 Support Access

The 199bat support team is available around the clock, every day of the year. If you have concerns about your gaming behaviour, your account, or a family member's gambling, reach out at any time. All enquiries are handled with full confidentiality.

How to Activate
Using Your Account Protection Tools

All responsible gaming tools are available directly through the 199bat support team. Contact us at [email protected] with your registered mobile number and the specific tool you wish to activate. Requests are processed within 24 hours — and for self-exclusions, processing begins immediately upon verification.

Request a Deposit Limit

Email [email protected] stating: "I want to set a deposit limit of ৳[amount] per [day/week/month]." Verification of your identity will be requested. Limits take effect within 24 hours of confirmation and cannot be increased for a minimum of 7 days.

Request a Time-Out

Email [email protected] stating: "I want a time-out for [period]." Choose from 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, or 6 weeks. Your account will be suspended for the specified period. You will not be able to shorten this period once it begins.

Request Self-Exclusion

Email [email protected] stating: "I want to self-exclude for [period] / permanently." Temporary exclusions run for 1, 3, or 6 months. Permanent exclusions close your account with no possibility of reopening. All pending withdrawals are processed before closure.

Request a Loss Limit

Email [email protected] stating: "I want to set a loss limit of ৳[amount] per [day/week/month]." Loss limits are enforced in real time. When your net loss reaches the threshold, further activity is blocked automatically until the period resets.

Enable Reality Check Reminders

Email [email protected] to activate session reminders at intervals of 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours. The reminder displays your current session duration and total wagered amount, giving you a clear picture of your activity before you continue.

Close Your Account

You may request permanent account closure at any time for any reason. Email [email protected] with the subject "Account Closure Request." Withdrawals of any remaining balance are processed first. Closed accounts cannot be reopened at a later date.

Know the Warning Signs
Recognising Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually and is often difficult to recognise from the inside. The following accordion covers the most common warning signs across different areas of life. If several of these descriptions feel familiar, we strongly encourage you to use the self-exclusion tool or contact the support team today.

  • Spending more than you planned on deposits regularly
  • Borrowing money from friends, family, or using credit to fund gambling
  • Neglecting bills, rent, or essential expenses to deposit more
  • Selling possessions or taking loans specifically to continue gambling
  • Hiding financial transactions or account statements from family members

  • Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when not gambling
  • Gambling to escape stress, loneliness, depression, or boredom
  • Continuing to gamble even after deciding to stop
  • Lying to family or friends about gambling activity or losses
  • Feeling guilt or shame after a gambling session but returning anyway
  • Chasing losses — depositing more to try to "win back" money you have lost

  • Withdrawing from family gatherings, social events, or friendships
  • Missing work, study, or family commitments due to gambling sessions
  • Arguments with family or partners about money or time spent gaming
  • Neglecting personal responsibilities, health, or sleep to keep playing

  • Spending increasing amounts of time and money to achieve the same level of excitement
  • Making repeated unsuccessful attempts to cut down or stop gambling
  • Thinking about gambling constantly — planning the next session, reliving past wins
  • Placing larger and larger bets to compensate for the reduced thrill of smaller stakes
Self-Assessment
Quick Self-Check Questions

Answer these questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to three or more, we strongly recommend activating a self-exclusion or time-out and speaking with our support team.

1

Have you ever spent more time or money gambling than you originally intended to?

2

Have you borrowed money or sold anything specifically to fund gambling activity?

3

Do you feel irritable, anxious, or restless when you are unable to gamble for a period?

4

Have you tried to cut down or stop gambling but found yourself unable to do so?

5

Has gambling caused arguments or tension with family members, a partner, or close friends?

6

Do you gamble to escape from stress, worry, financial pressure, or difficult emotions?

7

After losing money, do you feel a strong urge to return and try to win it back immediately?

This self-check is not a clinical diagnostic tool. It is intended as a prompt for reflection. If you are concerned about your relationship with gambling, please contact [email protected] at any time.

Protecting Minors
Underage Gambling Prevention

The 199bat platform is strictly restricted to players aged 18 years and above. This requirement exists to protect young people from the financial and psychological harms associated with gambling, and it is enforced at every stage of the account lifecycle — from registration through to withdrawals and ongoing account reviews.

If 199bat has reason to believe that an account is held by or being accessed by a person under the age of 18, that account will be suspended immediately pending identity verification. If verification cannot confirm that the account holder is 18 or older, the account will be permanently closed and any remaining balance will be handled in accordance with our Terms & Conditions.

For parents and guardians in Bangladesh: if you share a device with younger family members, we strongly encourage you to use device-level parental controls to prevent access to online gaming platforms. Many Android and iOS devices offer built-in screen time and app restriction features. Third-party parental control applications are also widely available.

If you discover that a minor in your household has registered or attempted to register an account with 199bat, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. We will take immediate action to close the account and ensure that no further access is possible from that device or user profile.

Age Verification Process

  • Date of birth is collected at account registration
  • Identity documents may be requested before withdrawal processing
  • Accounts flagged as potentially underage are suspended pending review
  • Suspected underage accounts are reported and permanently closed
  • No winnings are paid out from accounts where age cannot be confirmed

Parental Control Tips

  • Use Android or iOS built-in screen time and app restriction settings
  • Set up a separate user profile for children on shared devices
  • Use browser-level content filtering to block gambling-related websites
  • Have open conversations with young people about the risks of gambling
  • Keep your 199bat account credentials strictly private
