Our Responsible Gaming Commitment

Responsible gaming at bons goes beyond following a set of rules. It's a culture — one where every player's mental wellbeing, financial safety, and responsibility to their family come first. We want you to enjoy gaming, but within healthy limits. Because the true winner is the one who stays in control.

Responsible Gaming Tools

Bons gives you a set of effective tools to keep yourself protected — all fully within your own control.

Set Deposit Limits

Set a limit in advance on how much you deposit daily, weekly, or monthly. Once a limit is set, it takes effect within 24 hours, and a cooling-off period applies before it can be increased.

Protection Level High
Set a Loss Limit

If you exceed a set loss threshold, your session will be closed automatically. This tool protects you from losing more than you intended in the heat of the moment.

Protection Level High
Session Time Limit

Set a maximum duration for each gaming session. When time is up, you'll be alerted and can choose to be logged out automatically.

Protection Level Medium
Take a Break (Cooling-Off)

Take a short break to clear your head — from 1 day up to 6 weeks. Your account stays active during this time, but deposits and betting will be completely suspended.

Protection Level High
Self-Exclusion

If gaming feels like it's getting out of control, apply for a long-term self-exclusion — from 6 months up to permanent. During this period, you will not be able to access the platform in any way.

Protection Level Maximum
Reality Check

You'll receive pop-up notifications at set intervals summarizing how long you've been playing and how much you've won or lost. This keeps you aware of where you stand at all times.

Why does responsible gaming matter?

Online gaming has become a popular form of entertainment for millions of people in Bangladesh. Every day, thousands of players enjoy their favorite games on platforms like bons. But like any form of entertainment, gaming can become a problem when it goes unchecked.

Responsible gaming means keeping gaming an enjoyable part of your life — not letting it become the centre of it. If you find yourself chasing losses, sacrificing time with family or work, or unable to stop despite financial difficulties, it's time to pause and take stock.

Responsible gaming on the bons platform isn't just a policy page. Our system actively detects unusual gaming patterns and reaches out to affected players with support. Our goal is for you to stay happy and healthy over the long term.

Remember: gambling and online gaming are never a guaranteed source of income. They are a form of entertainment. Only spend what you can genuinely afford to lose.

Our responsible gaming team members are specially trained. They will listen to your concerns without judgment and in complete confidence, offering whatever support you need. You're not alone — bons is always by your side.

We verify the age of every new member at registration and clearly communicate our responsible gaming guidelines. Our platform is completely off-limits to anyone under 18. We urge parents to use parental control software on devices accessible to underage family members.

7 Golden Rules for Healthy Gaming
1
Set Your Budget in Advance

Before you start playing, decide on a maximum spend for the day — and stick to it.

2
Accept Your Losses

Never chase your losses by placing more bets to win back what you've lost. It's the most common trap.

3
Respect Your Time Limits

Set a daily limit on how long you play and use an alarm to keep yourself on track.

4
Don't Make Decisions on Impulse

Avoid gaming when you're feeling down, angry, or frustrated.

5
Let Your Family Know

Talk openly with people close to you about your gaming habits.

6
Take a Break

Take regular breaks instead of playing for long stretches at a time. Both your body and mind need rest.

7
Don't Hesitate to Seek Help

If you feel you need help, reach out to our support team or a professional organization.

Warning Signs of Problem Gaming

If you or someone you know is showing any of the signs below, it's important to seek help immediately.

Gaming with borrowed money — Repeatedly borrowing money from friends, family, or financial institutions to fund gaming.

Placing larger bets in an attempt to recover losses — Continuing to play repeatedly with the belief that "one more win will make up for everything".

Draining Savings — Spending savings set aside for the future on gaming.

Important: If you recognize even one of these signs in yourself, reach out to our support team right away. Asking for help isn't a weakness — it takes courage.
