Responsible Gambling at 92ab

Betting should be entertainment — nothing more. 92ab provides a full suite of responsible gambling tools so every player in Pakistan can stay in control, set their own limits, and get help whenever they need it.

🔞 Adults 18+ Only — or the higher minimum required by the operator/licence jurisdiction. Gambling involves risk. If gambling is affecting your life or those around you, please use our self-exclusion tool or contact our support team immediately. Visit our FAQ for common responsible gambling questions.

Gambling as Entertainment — Keeping It That Way

At 92ab, responsible gambling is not a footnote — it is a core part of how we build and operate the platform. Millions of sports fans across Pakistan enjoy cricket betting on PSL matches, ICC tournaments, and international fixtures purely as a form of entertainment. For the vast majority, a quick in-play bet during a T20 game or a live casino session on a quiet evening is a fun, harmless activity. We want to keep it that way.

The reality is that a small number of players can develop problematic gambling habits — often without recognising it early enough. 92ab's responsible gambling framework is designed to catch these situations before they escalate, providing every user with tools to stay in control from the moment they create their account.

Whether you are placing bets from Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, or anywhere else in Pakistan, you have access to the same comprehensive set of safety tools: deposit limits, loss limits, session time reminders, cool-off periods, and full self-exclusion. All of these are available 24/7 directly from your account settings, with no delays or waiting periods for activation.

Pakistan's Prevention of Gambling Act, 1977 and other applicable laws impose restrictions on gambling activities. 92ab does not hold a licence from any Pakistani government authority. We encourage all users to understand the laws applicable to them before participating. This page provides guidance on responsible play and does not constitute legal advice.

Your Control Tools on 92ab

Every tool below is available instantly in your account settings. No waiting periods, no barriers — just real controls that work the moment you set them.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on the total amount you can deposit into your 92ab account. Once the limit is reached, further deposits are blocked until the period resets. Limits can be lowered instantly but increases take 24 hours to take effect — by design.

Loss Limits

Define the maximum net loss you are prepared to accept in a given time period — daily, weekly, or monthly. When your losses reach this threshold, betting and gaming are automatically suspended for the remainder of that period, protecting you from chasing losses in the heat of the moment.

Wager Limits

Set a cap on the total amount you can stake across all bets and games within a defined time window. Wager limits help you manage the volume of betting activity independently of your deposit level, giving you an additional layer of spending control.

Session Time Reminders

Configure on-screen reminders that notify you when you have been logged in and actively playing for a set amount of time — for example, 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours. These prompts help you stay aware of how long each session lasts, so time doesn't slip by unnoticed.

Cool-Off Periods

If you feel you need a short break without permanently closing your account, a cool-off period temporarily suspends your access. Choose from 24 hours, 48 hours, one week, or up to six weeks. During a cool-off, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. All promotional contact stops immediately.

Self-Exclusion

For a more permanent break, self-exclusion closes your account for a defined period of six months or more, or indefinitely. Self-exclusion is processed immediately upon request. Your account is locked, all marketing ceases, and re-registration attempts will be flagged and rejected. This is our strongest protection tool.

How to Activate Responsible Gambling Tools

1
Log In to Your 92ab Account

Access your account using your registered credentials. All responsible gambling tools are available to every verified account holder immediately after login.

2
Navigate to Account Settings

Find the "Responsible Gambling" or "Safe Play" section within your account settings menu. This section is prominently accessible — it is not buried in sub-menus.

3
Choose Your Tool and Set Your Parameters

Select the tool you want — deposit limit, loss limit, session reminder, cool-off, or self-exclusion. Enter the relevant amount, time period, or duration and confirm your choice.

4
Confirm — It Takes Effect Immediately

Restrictive settings (lower limits, cool-off, self-exclusion) apply instantly. If you request to increase a limit, there is a 24-hour cooling-off period before the increase activates — giving you time to reconsider.

5
Need Help? Contact Support

If you cannot find a tool in your settings or need help activating self-exclusion urgently, contact our 24/7 live chat team. Support is available in English and Urdu. They can action your request on the spot.

⚙️

Tools Are Always Within Reach

Every responsible gambling control on 92ab is built into your account dashboard — not hidden in policy documents. You can review, update, or activate any tool at any time, from any device, whether you are watching a PSL match from Lahore or following an ICC tournament from Karachi.

Reducing a limit or activating self-exclusion takes effect immediately. Increasing limits requires a 24-hour waiting period. Self-exclusion requests cannot be reversed during the exclusion period.

How Is Your Relationship With Gambling?

Answer these questions honestly to get a general sense of your gambling habits. This is not a clinical assessment — it is a personal check-in tool. If you have concerns, please speak with a support professional.

1 Do you spend more money on gambling than you originally intended?
2 Have you ever borrowed money or sold items to fund gambling?
3 Do you feel restless or irritable when trying to cut down on gambling?
4 Has gambling ever caused conflict with family members or affected your relationships?
5 Do you find yourself chasing losses — gambling more to recover previous losses?
Your Assessment Result

This tool is for personal reflection only and is not a clinical diagnosis. If you are concerned about your gambling habits, please reach out to our support team or consult a qualified professional.

Recognising Problem Gambling

Problem gambling does not always look obvious. It often develops gradually — and the person affected is frequently the last to notice. Being aware of these warning signs — in yourself or in someone you care about — is the first step toward getting help.

If you recognise any of the signs listed here, we strongly encourage you to use one of 92ab's responsible gambling tools immediately, or to contact our support team. There is no shame in asking for help.

Anyone concerned about a family member's gambling habits in Pakistan — particularly around PSL season or major ICC events when betting activity tends to increase — can contact 92ab support to discuss options. Our team handles all such enquiries with complete discretion.

Spending Beyond Your Means

Regularly depositing or betting more than you can comfortably afford, or using money allocated for household expenses, bills, or family needs.

Chasing Losses

Placing larger or more frequent bets in an attempt to win back money you've already lost — often escalating rapidly over a short session.

Hiding Your Gambling

Concealing the extent of your gambling from family members or feeling the need to be secretive about how much time or money you spend on the platform.

Mood Tied to Outcomes

Feeling extremely anxious before placing bets, or experiencing severe mood swings depending on wins and losses — gambling occupying an outsized mental and emotional space.

Losing Track of Time

Routinely spending more time gambling than intended, missing important commitments, or neglecting personal or professional responsibilities due to gambling activity.

Borrowing to Fund Gambling

Taking loans, borrowing from family or friends, or selling personal belongings specifically to fund gambling deposits or to cover gambling-related debts.

How 92ab Upholds Responsible Play

Mandatory Age Verification

All accounts undergo age verification during KYC. Any account identified as belonging to a minor is closed immediately, all transactions voided, and the data deleted.

No Marketing to Excluded Players

When a player activates self-exclusion or strict limits, all promotional communications stop permanently. We do not send re-activation campaigns to excluded players.

Proactive Monitoring

Our systems monitor for behavioural patterns associated with problem gambling — such as sudden escalations in deposit frequency or rapid session length increases — and may proactively offer tool access or reach out to affected users.

Cooling-Off on Limit Increases

Any request to increase a limit — deposit, loss, or wager — is subject to a mandatory 24-hour waiting period. This prevents impulsive decisions during active sessions.

Staff Training

Our customer support team receives training to identify signs of problem gambling in player interactions and to respond with empathy, appropriate tool guidance, and escalation procedures.

We encourage users to access any resource that helps them maintain healthy gambling habits.

Responsible Gambling — Frequently Asked Questions

Log in to your account and navigate to the Responsible Gambling section in your account settings. Select "Self-Exclusion", choose your preferred duration (minimum six months), and confirm. Self-exclusion is activated immediately — you will be logged out at once, and all promotional communications will stop. If you need urgent help activating self-exclusion, contact our 24/7 live chat team directly.

No. Self-exclusion cannot be reversed for the duration of the exclusion period you selected. This is intentional — it ensures that the protection is meaningful and not undone by an impulsive decision. Once your exclusion period expires, you may contact support to discuss reinstatement, which will include a review process before access is restored.

Restrictive changes — such as lowering a deposit limit or activating a loss limit — take effect immediately. This ensures you benefit from the protection straight away. Increases to existing limits are subject to a mandatory 24-hour waiting period before they are applied. You can cancel a pending increase during this window by contacting support.

Any real-money balance in your account at the time of self-exclusion is preserved. You can request withdrawal of your balance through customer support. Bonus funds and promotional balances that have not been fully wagered are typically forfeited upon self-exclusion, in line with our Terms & Conditions. The support team will guide you through the withdrawal process when you are ready.

Pakistan's Prevention of Gambling Act, 1977 and related legislation impose significant restrictions on gambling activities within Pakistan. 92ab does not hold a gambling licence from any Pakistani government authority, the PTA, the State Bank of Pakistan, or any provincial body. Users are solely responsible for understanding and complying with all laws applicable to them in their jurisdiction. This page does not constitute legal advice. We recommend seeking independent legal counsel if you are uncertain about your obligations.

We take third-party referrals seriously. If you are concerned about a family member's gambling on 92ab, please contact our support team with as much detail as you can provide. While account actions can generally only be taken upon request from the account holder, our team can provide guidance, flag the account for monitoring, and ensure that any self-exclusion request subsequently made by the account holder is processed promptly. All such enquiries are handled with complete discretion.
