Responsible Gambling

Gaming should be enjoyable, not stressful. 3rgame is committed to giving every Pakistani user the tools, information and support they need to keep gambling a safe and controlled activity — not a source of financial or personal harm.

Our Commitment

Playing Smart Matters More Than Playing Big

At 3rgame, responsible gambling is not a checkbox — it is a core part of how we think about online gaming for Pakistani users. Whether you are following Pakistan cricket, tracking the latest PSL fixtures, placing a T20 wager or exploring live casino tables, we believe every session should start with a budget, a time limit and a clear head.

Gambling is a form of entertainment. Like any form of entertainment, it works best when it stays within boundaries you set for yourself in advance. Wins are never guaranteed, and chasing losses is one of the most common ways a recreational pastime can become a problem. Our tools are designed to help you stay in control before things ever reach that point.

This page explains every responsible gambling feature available through 3rgame-affiliated platforms, how to access them, and where to find independent support if you — or someone close to you — needs it.

Important: 3rgame does not claim authorisation from the Government of Pakistan, the PTA, the State Bank of Pakistan or any Pakistani regulatory body. Content on this platform is for informational purposes. The Prevention of Gambling Act, 1977 may restrict gambling activities in Pakistan — understanding your local legal obligations is your responsibility.

Quick Safe-Play Checklist
Set a deposit limit before you start — and stick to it.
Only gamble with money you can afford to lose — never with rent, bills or savings.
Take a break — use session time reminders to step away regularly.
Never chase losses — a losing streak does not guarantee an upcoming win.
Do not gamble when feeling stressed, anxious or under the influence of alcohol.
Keep gambling balanced alongside other leisure activities — it should never dominate your time.
If you feel you are losing control, use self-exclusion or contact support immediately.
Safe Play Tools

Built-In Controls to Keep You in Charge

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly or monthly cap on how much you can deposit — for example PKR 5,000 per week or PKR 25,000 per month. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the next period begins. Lowering your limit takes effect immediately; increases are subject to a cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decisions.

Loss Limits

A loss limit caps how much you are allowed to lose in a given period. If your net losses hit the threshold you set — say PKR 10,000 in a single day — the platform pauses your session automatically. This is one of the most effective tools for preventing a bad session from turning into a serious financial problem.

Session Time Limits

Decide in advance how long each gaming session should last. When your chosen time is up — whether that is 30 minutes or 3 hours — a notification prompts you to stop and take a break. Pairing a time limit with a deposit limit is the single most effective way to stay in control of your gambling habits.

Reality Check Reminders

Reality checks are on-screen pop-up reminders that appear at intervals you choose — every 30, 60 or 90 minutes. Each reminder shows your net win/loss for the session and the total time played, giving you a clear picture of where you stand before you decide whether to continue or stop.

Cool-Off Periods

A cool-off period temporarily pauses your account for a short duration you select — typically 24 hours, 48 hours or up to 30 days. During a cool-off, you cannot log in or place bets. This is a useful tool when you sense your gambling is becoming more frequent or emotionally driven, without committing to a full self-exclusion.

Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is the strongest tool available. You can request to close your account and block access for a minimum period — typically six months up to five years, or permanently. During self-exclusion, all marketing communications are stopped, your account is locked, and any pending bonuses are forfeited. Contact our support team at [email protected] to initiate self-exclusion.

Self-Assessment

Is Your Gambling Still Under Control?

Answering these questions honestly takes less than two minutes. If you find yourself saying "yes" to several of them, it may be worth using one of the safe-play tools on this page or reaching out to a support organisation. There is no shame in asking for help — recognising a pattern early makes a real difference.

This is not a clinical diagnostic tool. For professional assessment and support, please contact one of the independent organisations listed in the Support Resources section below.

Remember: Answering honestly is the only way this assessment helps you. Nobody else sees your answers — this is a personal reflection tool only.

Ask Yourself Honestly
1
Have you ever spent more money or time gambling than you originally intended?
2
Have you gambled to escape from stress, anxiety, boredom or personal problems?
3
Have you chased losses — kept gambling to try to win back money you had already lost?
4
Have you ever borrowed money or sold possessions to fund gambling?
5
Have you hidden your gambling habits from family members or close friends in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad or elsewhere?
6
Have you felt restless, irritable or anxious when trying to reduce or stop gambling?
7
Has gambling caused arguments, relationship problems or financial difficulty in your life?
8
Have you ever thought about gambling as a way to solve financial problems or earn a regular income?

If you answered yes to two or more questions, we strongly encourage you to activate a deposit or loss limit right now, consider a cool-off period, and review the support resources below. Reaching out early is always the right call.

Protecting Minors

Strictly 18+ — No Exceptions

3rgame-affiliated platforms are strictly for adults aged 18 and over, or the higher minimum age required by the relevant operator's license jurisdiction. Underage gambling is illegal and harmful. All accounts undergo age verification as part of the KYC process, and any account found to belong to a minor is closed immediately with funds returned to the payment source.

If you share a device with younger family members — children or teenagers in your household in Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar or anywhere else in Pakistan — we strongly recommend activating parental control software to prevent access to gambling websites.

If you believe a minor has accessed a gambling account, please contact us at [email protected] and we will investigate and take immediate action.

Recommended Parental Control Tools
Net Nanny
Cross-platform content filtering software that can block gambling and adult websites across all browsers.
Google Family Link
Free parental controls for Android devices — manage screen time, approve app downloads and filter web content.
Apple Screen Time
Built into iOS and macOS — restrict access to specific websites and categories including gambling content.
Router-Level Filtering
Most modern routers support content filtering by category — blocking gambling sites across all devices on your home network.
