criczo believes that gaming should always be a source of entertainment — never a source of stress, financial harm, or personal difficulty. Our Responsible Gaming programme exists to give every Bangladesh player the tools, information, and support they need to stay in control at every step.
At criczo, we take our responsibility to players seriously. We are committed to providing a safe, fair, and transparent gaming environment for all players across Bangladesh — whether you are placing a bet on a Bangladesh Premier League match from Dhaka, spinning slots from Chittagong, or playing live casino games from Sylhet.
Responsible gaming means different things to different people. For some, it means setting a monthly budget and sticking to it. For others, it means recognising when gaming is no longer a leisure activity and taking a step back. criczo supports every player at every point on that spectrum with practical, easy-to-use tools built directly into the platform.
This page explains the full range of responsible gaming features available to criczo players, how to use them, and where to turn if you need additional support. We encourage every player — new and experienced alike — to read this page carefully and to use the tools that best fit their personal gaming habits.
Every criczo account comes with a full suite of responsible gaming controls. All tools are self-service, free to activate, and take effect immediately or within 24 hours as described below.
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you deposit into your criczo account. Once a limit is active, you cannot deposit beyond the specified amount within the chosen time window — regardless of payment method (bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, or USDT). Decreasing a limit takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a mandatory 7-day cooling-off period before taking effect, ensuring decisions are not made impulsively.
A loss limit caps the total amount you are permitted to lose within a defined period. When your net losses reach the set threshold, further wagering is suspended until the next period begins. This tool is particularly useful for players who find it difficult to walk away after a losing streak. Like deposit limits, reductions take effect immediately while increases are subject to a 7-day review window.
Control the maximum stake you can place on a single bet or spin. Wager limits help players who enjoy the thrill of higher-stakes games maintain a sustainable bankroll over longer sessions. This tool works across all game types on criczo — slots, live casino, cricket betting, and card games. Set your per-bet ceiling in your account settings and criczo will enforce it automatically.
Set a maximum duration for a single gaming session. Once the time limit is reached, criczo will display a clear notification and prompt you to either take a break or end your session. Regular session reminders — displayed every 30 minutes by default — can also be enabled independently of a hard time cap, keeping you informed of how long you have been playing without interrupting your session abruptly.
Take a short break from gaming without permanently closing your account. criczo offers time-out periods of 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or a custom duration of up to 6 weeks. During a time-out, your account is suspended — you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. Your account balance and data are safely preserved and fully accessible when the time-out period ends.
Self-exclusion is a longer-term option for players who feel they need a meaningful break from gambling. Choose from a 6-month, 1-year, 3-year, or permanent exclusion. During self-exclusion, your account is fully disabled, all pending withdrawal balances are returned to your nominated payment method, and you will be removed from all criczo marketing communications. Permanent self-exclusion cannot be reversed. Contact [email protected] to initiate self-exclusion if you cannot access your account settings.
All criczo player protection tools are accessible directly from your account dashboard. No forms to fill out, no waiting for approval — most tools activate instantly. Follow the steps below to set up any limit, time-out, or self-exclusion.
If you experience any difficulty activating a tool through your account, contact the criczo support team at [email protected] and a member of the team will assist you immediately — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, Bangladesh Standard Time (BST, UTC+6).
Visit criczo.org and log in using your registered username and password. Ensure you are on the official criczo domain before entering your credentials.
Click on your account icon or username in the top-right corner of the page to open the account menu, then select "Account Settings" or "Responsible Gaming" from the dropdown.
Within Account Settings, locate the "Responsible Gaming" or "Player Protection" tab. This section houses all available limit types, time-out options, and self-exclusion controls.
Select the specific tool you wish to activate — deposit limit, loss limit, wager limit, session time limit, time-out, or self-exclusion. Enter your desired values and time period.
Review your settings carefully, then confirm. For limits that take effect immediately (reductions, time-outs, self-exclusions), the change activates at the moment of confirmation. A confirmation email will be sent to your registered email address.
Honest self-reflection is one of the most powerful tools a player has. Review the following questions regularly. If you find yourself answering "yes" to several of them, it may be time to use a criczo player protection tool or to seek external support.
Do you spend more money on gambling than you originally planned or can comfortably afford?
Do you gamble to recover money you have lost previously — sometimes called "chasing losses"?
Have you borrowed money, sold possessions, or neglected bills in order to fund gambling?
Do you feel restless, irritable, or anxious when you try to reduce or stop gambling?
Has gambling caused conflict with family members, friends, or colleagues in Dhaka, Chittagong, or elsewhere?
Do you think about gambling frequently — planning sessions, calculating bets, or reliving wins and losses — when not actively playing?
Have you tried to cut back on gambling before but found it difficult or impossible to do so on your own?
If you answered "yes" to two or more of the above questions, we strongly encourage you to activate a responsible gaming tool today or contact the criczo support team. Problem gambling is a recognised condition — seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
criczo operates on a strict 18+ only policy. No individual under the age of 18 may register an account, deposit funds, or place bets on the criczo platform. Age verification is a mandatory part of the registration and KYC process, and criczo reserves the right to request additional proof of age at any time.
If criczo discovers that an account is held by a person under 18, the account will be immediately closed, all funds returned, and the incident reported to our compliance team. Parents or guardians who suspect a minor has registered should contact [email protected] immediately.
We strongly recommend that parents and guardians install parental control software on shared devices to prevent minors from accessing gambling websites. Devices used by children should be protected with appropriate access restrictions, including separate user accounts with content filtering enabled.
criczo is committed to identifying and supporting vulnerable players. Our support team is trained to recognise warning signs of problem gambling and to respond with sensitivity and appropriate guidance. If you are concerned about a friend or family member's gambling behaviour, please reach out to us — we are here to help.
Every criczo account is subject to Know Your Customer (KYC) verification before withdrawals are processed. KYC confirms your age, identity, and residence, ensuring that only eligible adults can access the full functionality of the platform.
Staying in control of your gaming does not require dramatic action — small, consistent habits make a significant difference over time.
Treat your gambling budget the same way you treat any other leisure expense — cinema, dining, sport. Decide in advance the maximum amount you are willing to spend per week or per month, and do not exceed it under any circumstances. Use criczo's deposit limit feature to enforce this budget automatically.
Chasing losses is one of the most common and damaging patterns in problem gambling. Each game outcome is statistically independent — a losing streak does not make a win any more likely. If you have reached your loss limit for a session, stop, take a break, and return another day with a fresh budget.
Prolonged gaming sessions reduce decision quality and increase emotional betting. Set a timer for 45–60 minutes and step away from the screen when it rings — grab a chai, take a short walk, or chat with friends. criczo's session time reminder feature can prompt you automatically during play.
Online gaming is a form of entertainment — not a reliable income source. Wins are possible, but the long-term mathematical expectation favours the house on every game. If you find yourself relying on gambling winnings to cover everyday expenses such as rent, groceries, or mobile recharge, this is a serious warning sign that needs immediate attention.
Maintain a healthy balance between gaming and other activities — family time, sport, exercise, and social engagements. If gambling starts to crowd out other enjoyable activities in your life, or if you find yourself declining social invitations in order to play, it is time to reassess your habits.
Gambling while under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or extreme emotional distress significantly impairs judgement and leads to riskier decisions. Make a personal rule: only play criczo when you are in a clear, calm, and sober state of mind. If you are upset, anxious, or overwhelmed, close the app and return later.
If gambling is causing stress, financial hardship, or affecting your personal relationships, help is available. The criczo support team is your first point of contact, and we can connect you with further resources as needed.
Our dedicated support team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to help you activate any responsible gaming tool, discuss your concerns confidentially, or guide you toward appropriate external resources.
Contact us by email:
[email protected]Sometimes the most important step is an honest conversation with a family member or close friend. Telling someone you trust about a gambling problem reduces isolation and opens the door to practical support — whether that is help managing finances or simply having someone to check in with.
Sharing your situation is a sign of courage, not weakness.
Problem gambling is a recognised behavioural condition that responds well to professional counselling and cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT). If you feel that self-help tools and peer support are not enough, we encourage you to seek qualified professional assistance from a licensed counsellor or mental health practitioner.
criczo can provide referral guidance — contact [email protected].
criczo acknowledges that dedicated gambling support organisations and helplines exist in many countries. If you are based in Bangladesh and require immediate support, we recommend speaking with a qualified mental health professional or reaching out to a community support service in your city — Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, or elsewhere. Our support team at [email protected] can assist you in finding appropriate local resources.
Explore everything criczo has to offer — cricket betting, slots, live casino, and more — with the confidence that our responsible gaming tools are always available to keep your experience enjoyable and within your control.
