Responsible Gaming at p98 – Stay Safe, Stay in Control

At p98, we believe entertainment should stay entertaining. This page covers everything Pakistani players need to know about keeping their gaming healthy, within budget, and genuinely enjoyable – not stressful.

p98 Responsible Gaming Tools

Every tool below is available to all registered p98 players at no cost, accessible directly from your account settings dashboard.

Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly PKR deposit caps on your p98 account. Limits take effect immediately upon activation and cannot be increased for a minimum of 24 hours – this cooling-off period is intentional and non-negotiable.

Session Time Reminders

Configure on-screen alerts that appear after a session reaches your pre-set duration. When the alert fires, p98 will prompt you to review your session length before continuing. This keeps you aware of time spent on the platform.

Cool-Off Periods

Take a planned break from p98 for a period of 24 hours, 48 hours, one week, or up to six weeks. During a cool-off period your account remains intact but deposits are completely blocked. The restriction lifts automatically at the end of the chosen period.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a longer or permanent break, p98 self-exclusion is available for periods of one month, three months, six months, one year, or permanently. Self-exclusion takes effect immediately upon request and cannot be reversed during the chosen period.

Loss Limits

In addition to deposit limits, p98 allows players to set maximum loss thresholds over daily, weekly, or monthly windows. When the loss limit is reached, further wagering is paused automatically for the remainder of the period you have set.

24/7 Support Access

The p98 English-language support team is available around the clock, every day of the year. If you are concerned about your gaming habits or want help activating any responsible gaming tool, contact the team immediately via live chat from your account dashboard.

18+ Age Policy – Strictly Enforced at p98

p98 operates a zero-tolerance policy on underage gambling. This is not just a regulatory requirement – it is a core ethical commitment that p98 takes seriously regardless of jurisdiction.

Every new registration on p98 must pass age verification as part of the standard account creation process. Players are required to confirm they are 18 or over at the point of registration. For accounts where further verification is required, p98 will request a copy of your CNIC or other valid government-issued identity document before deposit or withdrawal privileges are activated.

In Pakistan, where families often share mobile devices and young people may have exposure to adult financial accounts, p98 strongly encourages parents and guardians to make use of the parental control and device management features available on Android and iOS mobile operating systems. These tools can prevent minors from accessing gambling applications and websites without requiring any interaction with p98 directly.

If you suspect that an individual under the age of 18 has accessed or registered a p98 account, please contact the support team immediately. p98 will investigate promptly, close any underage account, and refund any deposits where appropriate and verifiable.

Age Restriction Warning: Permitting or facilitating access to gambling services by a person under the age of 18 is a serious legal matter in most jurisdictions. p98 will permanently close any account found to have been used by or on behalf of a minor, and will report the matter to the relevant regulatory authority where required by applicable law.

Underage Gambling – Warning Signs

If a young person in your household shows the following behaviours, consider speaking to them about responsible gaming:

Secretive use of devices, especially around payment apps like JazzCash or Easypaisa
Unexplained withdrawals or transfers from family bank accounts (HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank)
Excessive time spent on mobile gaming sites or casino-style applications
Borrowing money from friends or family with no clear explanation of the purpose

If you have concerns, contact p98 support or speak to a family counsellor in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, or your city of residence.

Recognising a Gambling Problem

Problem gambling does not always look dramatic. For many Pakistani players – and players worldwide – the signs start small and gradually become harder to manage. Knowing what to look for in your own behaviour is the first step toward keeping gaming genuinely recreational.

Gambling becomes a problem when it stops being fun and starts creating financial pressure, relationship tension, or emotional distress. It has nothing to do with how much money you have or how often you play – it is about whether you remain in control. A player in Rawalpindi betting Rs 500 a week on PSL can still develop a problem if that activity is driven by compulsion rather than entertainment. A high-volume player can enjoy cricket betting responsibly if they are fully in control of their spending and behaviour.

p98 wants every Pakistani player using the platform to ask themselves honestly whether their gambling is staying recreational. If the honest answer is uncertain, that uncertainty itself is worth paying attention to.

Self-Assessment Questions

Answer honestly. If you answer "yes" to two or more of the following, consider contacting the p98 support team for a responsible gaming conversation:

1

Have you ever deposited more than you planned to on a single session at p98 or any other platform?

2

Have you placed bets to try to recover losses from a previous session?

3

Has your gambling led to arguments with family members in Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, or elsewhere?

4

Have you borrowed money – from family, friends, or through a JazzCash/Easypaisa credit facility – specifically to fund gambling activity?

5

Have you felt anxious, irritable, or distracted when you are not able to access gambling services?

6

Have you deliberately hidden the amount of time or money you spend gambling from someone close to you?

This is not a clinical diagnostic tool. If you have concerns, please speak to the p98 support team or a qualified counsellor.

p98's Commitment to Pakistani Players

Responsible gaming is not a separate department at p98 – it is integrated into how the entire platform is designed and operated. From the registration flow to the game lobby, from payment processing to support interactions, responsible gaming principles shape every decision.

The p98 support team receives specific training on problem gambling awareness. Every team member knows how to recognise when a player's questions or behaviour suggest they may be struggling, and every team member is empowered to offer responsible gaming resources as part of their standard response – not as an afterthought.

p98 also applies transaction monitoring and behavioural analytics to proactively identify accounts that may be showing patterns associated with problem gambling. Where such patterns are detected, p98 may proactively contact the player, offer responsible gaming tools, or temporarily limit account activity while a welfare check is conducted.

p98 operates under an international gaming licence from a recognised regulatory authority. Responsible gaming compliance is a condition of that licence, and p98 is subject to regular review of its responsible gaming policies and procedures.
