1. What Is Responsible Gaming and Why Does It Matter

Online gaming is a great source of entertainment — but it stays enjoyable only when you remain in control. Responsible Gaming means playing in a way that has no negative impact on your financial, mental, or family life.

At iv18, we believe a happy and healthy player is our best member. That's why we don't just offer games — we make sure you're playing within healthy limits. Responsible gaming is our highest priority.

When gaming crosses the line from entertainment to addiction, it can cause serious problems in a person's life. iv18's responsible gaming policy plays an active role in preventing such situations. We want to keep you informed at all times so that gaming remains a source of joy — not a burden.

Remember: gaming is entertainment, not a guaranteed source of income. No bet is a sure win, so only wager what you can afford to lose without affecting your daily life.

2. Signs of Problematic Gaming

We don't always notice when gaming starts to slip out of our control. Watch out for the following signs and consider using our responsible gaming tools:

Warning Signs
  • Repeatedly spending beyond your set budget and making additional deposits
  • Placing more bets to recover losses ("chasing losses")
  • Spending more time gaming and less time with family or friends
  • Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when you can't play
  • Gaming using borrowed money or savings
  • Gaming is affecting your work, studies, or sleep

If any of these signs apply to you, please contact our support team right away or start using the tools listed below. Taking action early is always the best approach.

3. iv18's Responsible Gaming Tools

Iv18 offers a range of tools to help you stay in control and play responsibly. All tools are completely free and available to access at any time:

Deposit Limit

Set your own maximum deposit amount on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Limits take effect immediately once set.

Session Timer

Set a maximum duration for each gaming session. You will receive an automatic alert when the time is up.

Loss Limit

Once you reach a set loss amount, your game will stop automatically — protecting you from chasing losses.

Cooling-Off Period

Need a breather? Take a temporary break of anywhere from 24 hours to 30 days. Your account will be paused for the duration.

Gaming History

Your complete betting history and win/loss statistics are always available to review.

Self-Exclusion

Full self-exclusion for a long-term break. Choose anywhere from 6 months to permanent.

4. Setting Limits — How to Get Started

Setting limits is the most effective step toward responsible play. It only takes a few minutes to set limits on your iv18 account. Follow the steps below:

1
Log in to your account

Log in to your iv18 account and click the profile icon in the top right corner.

2
Go to the Responsible Gaming Section

Go to the profile menu and select the "Responsible Gaming" option.

3
Choose Your Limit Type

Deposit limit, loss limit, or time limit — set one or more based on what works for you.

4
Set Your Amount and Duration

Daily, weekly, or monthly — set any period and a specific BDT limit.

5
Confirm

Once your limit is set, you will receive a confirmation by SMS or email. Reductions take effect immediately; increases require a 24-hour waiting period.

Remember, setting limits is not a sign of weakness — it is the mark of a smart, self-aware gamer.

5. Self-Exclusion Feature

Sometimes a short break isn't enough. If you feel gaming is seriously affecting your life, use iv18's self-exclusion feature. Self-exclusion lets you fully close your account — either for a set period or permanently.

Short-Term

Exclusion from 6 months up to 1 year

Long-Term

Exclusion from 1 year up to 5 years

Permanent

Permanent Self-Exclusion

While self-exclusion is active, you will not be able to open any new accounts, and we will not send you any promotional communications. Even after the period ends, you must complete a verification process through our support team before your account can be reactivated.

6. Practical Tips for Healthy Gaming Habits

Responsible gaming isn't just about using tools — it's a mindset. Follow these habits to keep gaming enjoyable at all times:

  • Set your budget in advance: Set a fixed monthly gaming budget and never exceed it. This budget should be treated as entertainment spending — not money for essentials or savings.
  • Track your time: Review how much time you spend gaming once a week. It's best to keep it to no more than 1-2 hours a day.
  • Take a break after a loss: If you lose a few bets in a row, stop. Don't return to the game until you've had time to cool down.
  • Don't make gaming your only source of entertainment: Make time for family, friends, hobbies, and exercise. A well-rounded lifestyle naturally reduces reliance on gaming.
  • Never game under the influence: Play with a clear head. Alcohol or substance use impairs judgment and increases the risk of excessive betting.
  • Don't play just to chase a win: Play for fun, not for income. There is no such thing as a guaranteed win at a casino over the long run.
  • Take regular breaks: Take at least a 10-minute break every hour. A fresh mind and body lead to better decision-making.
7. Check Yourself

Ask yourself the questions below. If you answer yes to more than one, it may be time to use our responsible gaming tools or reach out to support:

1
Have you lied to family or friends about your gaming?
2
Have you placed more bets in an attempt to recover lost money?
3
Have you tried to cut back on gaming but couldn't?
4
Has gaming caused problems at work, with your studies, or in your relationships?
5
Have you borrowed money or dipped into savings to keep playing?
6
Have you felt mentally unsettled when you were unable to play?
7
Consistently going over your set budget?

If you answered "Yes" to 2 or more questions, please contact our support team or Self-Exclusion Benefits Use it. Asking for help takes courage.

8. Protection of Minors

Iv18 is strictly for users aged 18 and above. We are fully committed to keeping minors away from gaming. Age verification is mandatory at registration, and any account showing suspicious activity will be suspended immediately.

If you have children or teenagers at home, take the following steps:

  • Use a PIN or password lock on your device to prevent children from accessing your account.
  • Always log out of iv18 when you're done using the app or website.
  • Never share your login details with anyone else in your household.
  • Have an open conversation with children about the risks of online gaming.
  • Use parental control software to block access to gambling sites.

Important: If you suspect a minor is using your account, please notify our support team immediately. We will act without delay.

9. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Yes, all of iv18's responsible gaming tools are completely free. Deposit limits, session timers, loss limits, cooling-off periods, and self-exclusion — every registered member can access all these features at no cost.

Self-exclusion cannot be cancelled before the chosen period ends. To reactivate your account after the period expires, you must contact our support team and complete a verification process. Permanent exclusion can never be reversed.

No. Lowering a limit takes effect immediately, but increasing a limit requires a 24-hour waiting period. This is intentional — to prevent impulsive overspending in the heat of the moment.

iv18's support team is here for you 24/7. You can also talk to a trusted family member, or consider speaking with a psychologist or counselor. Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.

A cooling-off period is a short-term break (24 hours to 30 days) after which you can return on your own. Self-exclusion is a longer-term measure (6 months to permanent) that requires support assistance to reactivate.
