pgkn Takes Responsible Gaming Seriously

At pgkn, we believe that gaming should be a source of entertainment — not stress, not financial pressure, and definitely not something that gets in the way of your daily life. Responsible gaming is not just a legal requirement for us; it's a genuine commitment to every player who trusts pgkn with their time and money.

We know that for most players in Bangladesh, pgkn is a place to unwind after a long day, enjoy a few rounds of Andar Bahar, or try their luck on the live tables at W Live. That's exactly what it should be. But we also know that for a small number of players, gaming can become a problem — and when that happens, pgkn wants to be the first platform to help, not the last.

This page explains the responsible gaming tools available on pgkn, how to recognise when gaming might be becoming a problem, and what steps you can take — including self-exclusion — if you need to take a break. All of these tools are available to every registered pgkn player, free of charge, at any time.

If you're reading this page because you're concerned about your own gaming or someone else's, that's already a positive step. pgkn's support team is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and they're trained to handle these conversations with care and without judgment. Reach out at [email protected] whenever you need to.

Six Ways pgkn Helps You Stay in Control

These tools are built into pgkn and available to every player. No extra steps, no waiting — just log in and use them.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap on your pgkn account. Once the limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. You can lower your limit instantly, but increases take 48 hours to apply — giving you time to reconsider.

Session Time Reminders

pgkn can send you a reminder notification after you've been playing for a set amount of time — 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours. It's a simple nudge to check in with yourself and decide whether you want to keep playing or take a break.

Cool-Off Period

Need a short break without fully closing your account? pgkn's cool-off feature lets you pause your account for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. The pause cannot be reversed early.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a longer break, pgkn's self-exclusion option lets you close your account for a minimum of 6 months or permanently. During self-exclusion, your account is fully locked and pgkn will not send you any promotional communications.

Loss Limits

Set a maximum loss amount per day, week, or month. When your net losses reach the limit you've set, pgkn will automatically prevent further bets for the remainder of that period. This tool helps you protect your bankroll and avoid chasing losses.

24/7 Support Access

pgkn's support team is available around the clock via live chat and email. If you're worried about your gaming habits — or someone else's — our team is trained to listen, provide information, and help you access the right tools without judgment.

How to Set Up Your Responsible Gaming Tools

Setting up limits and reminders on pgkn takes less than two minutes. Here's how to do it after logging in to your account.

1
Log In to Your pgkn Account

Go to pgkn.pro and log in with your registered mobile number and password. If you don't have an account yet, register in under two minutes.

2
Open Account Settings

Tap your profile icon in the top right corner and select "Account Settings" from the dropdown menu.

3
Go to Responsible Gaming

Find the "Responsible Gaming" tab in your account settings. All available tools — deposit limits, loss limits, session reminders, cool-off, and self-exclusion — are listed here.

4
Set Your Preferences

Choose the tools you want to activate and enter your preferred limits or timeframes. Changes that reduce your limits take effect immediately. Increases require a 48-hour cooling period.

5
Contact Support If You Need Help

If you can't find a setting or want to request self-exclusion directly, contact pgkn support at [email protected]. We'll handle it promptly and confidentially.

Deposit Limit

Cap how much BDT you can deposit per day, week, or month. Works with both bKash and Nagad deposits. Reductions apply instantly; increases take 48 hours.

Loss Limit

Set the maximum amount you're comfortable losing in a given period. pgkn stops accepting bets automatically once the limit is hit.

Session Reminder

Get a notification after a set play duration. A simple, non-intrusive way to stay aware of how long you've been playing.

Cool-Off / Self-Exclusion

Take a short break (24h–30 days) or a longer self-exclusion (6 months to permanent). All options are available directly from your account settings.

Is Gaming Still Fun for You?

Most players never have a problem. But it's worth checking in with yourself from time to time. If you answer "yes" to two or more of the questions below, it may be worth talking to someone or using pgkn's responsible gaming tools.

This Is Not a Diagnosis

This self-assessment is a simple awareness tool, not a clinical evaluation. If you're genuinely concerned about your gaming habits, please contact pgkn support or speak to a healthcare professional.

You're Not Alone

Problem gambling affects a small percentage of players worldwide. Recognising it early makes it much easier to address. pgkn is here to help — not to judge.

Quick Self-Check — Answer Honestly

1

Do you spend more money on gaming than you originally planned to?

2

Have you ever borrowed money or sold something to fund your gaming?

3

Do you find yourself thinking about gaming when you're doing other things?

4

Have you tried to cut back on gaming but found it difficult?

5

Do you chase losses — keep playing to try to win back money you've lost?

6

Has gaming caused arguments or tension with family or friends?

7

Do you feel anxious, irritable, or restless when you're not able to play?

8

Have you hidden your gaming activity from people close to you?

If you answered yes to two or more questions, consider using pgkn's responsible gaming tools or reaching out to our support team.

Need a Longer Break? We Support That.

Self-exclusion is the strongest responsible gaming tool pgkn offers. It's designed for players who feel they need a significant break from gaming — not just a day or two, but weeks, months, or permanently.

How Self-Exclusion Works on pgkn

When you request self-exclusion, the following happens immediately:

  • Your pgkn account is locked — you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets.
  • All pending withdrawal requests are processed and paid out to your registered wallet.
  • pgkn removes you from all marketing and promotional communications.
  • Your account data is retained securely in line with our Privacy Policy.
  • You cannot reverse a self-exclusion before the chosen period ends — this is intentional.

Self-exclusion periods available on pgkn: 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanent.

To request self-exclusion, go to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Self-Exclusion, or contact pgkn support directly at [email protected]. Your request will be processed within 24 hours.

Important — After Self-Exclusion

If you attempt to open a new pgkn account during a self-exclusion period, pgkn will close it immediately upon detection. Please do not attempt to circumvent self-exclusion — it exists to protect you. If you believe a new account has been opened in your name, contact support immediately.

Tips for Healthy Gaming Habits

Responsible gaming on pgkn starts with a few simple habits. These aren't rules — they're practical suggestions from players who've found a healthy balance between enjoying the platform and keeping it in its proper place in their lives.

Set a budget before you start. Decide how much you're comfortable spending before you open the pgkn app or website. Treat it like a night out — you'd set a budget for that, and gaming is no different. Use pgkn's deposit limit tool to make that budget automatic.

Never chase losses. This is the single most important rule in responsible gaming. If you've had a bad session, the instinct to keep playing to win it back is natural — but it almost always makes things worse. pgkn's loss limit tool is specifically designed to stop this pattern before it starts.

Keep track of time. It's easy to lose track of how long you've been playing, especially on live games like W Live or Andar Bahar. Set a session reminder in your pgkn account settings so you get a notification after your chosen play duration.

Don't play when you're stressed or upset. Gaming when you're in a difficult emotional state is a risk factor for problem gambling. If you've had a rough day, a walk or a conversation with a friend is a better outlet than a gaming session.

Keep gaming separate from your finances. Only ever deposit money you can genuinely afford to lose. pgkn games are entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial problems. If you're depositing money you need for rent, bills, or food, please use pgkn's self-exclusion tool and reach out to our support team.

Take regular breaks. Even if you're winning and having fun, regular breaks help you stay in control. Step away from the screen, have a drink of water, and check in with yourself before continuing.

pgkn is committed to making responsible gaming easy and accessible for every player in Bangladesh. If you have suggestions for how we can improve our responsible gaming tools, we genuinely want to hear them — contact us at [email protected].
