Responsible Gaming at bc35
bc35 believes that gambling should be an enjoyable, controlled form of entertainment — never a source of stress or financial harm. Our responsible gaming tools are available to every player, free of charge, at any time.
Our Commitment to Safe Play
bc35 is committed to providing a safe, fair, and transparent betting environment for all Bangladeshi players. We understand that while the vast majority of our players enjoy bc35 as a form of responsible entertainment, a small number may develop unhealthy patterns of play. Our responsible gaming programme exists to identify, support, and protect those players before harm escalates.
Responsible gaming at bc35 is not a checkbox or a legal formality — it is a core part of how we operate. Our platform continuously monitors for behavioural indicators of problem gambling, and our support team is trained to proactively reach out to players who may need guidance. Every tool described on this page is available instantly, without any requirement to contact support first.
Deposit Limits
One of the most effective ways to stay in control of your gambling expenditure is to set a deposit limit. bc35 allows you to configure daily, weekly, and monthly deposit caps directly from your account settings. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased without a mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period — protecting you from impulsive decisions in the heat of the moment.
- Daily deposit limit: caps the total amount you can deposit in any rolling 24-hour period. Useful for players who want strict day-to-day budget control.
- Weekly deposit limit: caps your total deposits across any 7-day rolling period. Ideal for players who budget on a weekly basis, such as those paid weekly via bKash or Nagad transfers from employers.
- Monthly deposit limit: the broadest deposit control available, capping your total deposits within any calendar month. This is the recommended starting point for players who are new to deposit limit tools.
- Limit reductions take effect immediately with no waiting period. Limit increases require a 24-hour cooling-off confirmation before they take effect — this deliberate friction is a key protection mechanism.
To set or adjust your deposit limits, log in to your bc35 account, navigate to Account Settings, and select the Responsible Gaming section. Changes are saved and applied in real time.
Session Time Controls
Losing track of time while playing is one of the most common experiences among gamblers — and one of the earliest warning signs of a developing problem. bc35's session time controls help you stay aware of how long you have been playing without interrupting the enjoyment of your session.
- Session duration alerts: set a maximum session length (for example, 1 hour or 2 hours). When you reach that limit, bc35 displays an on-screen reminder giving you the choice to continue or stop.
- Reality check notifications: periodic on-screen summaries showing your current session duration, net win or loss, and total amount wagered. These reality checks are designed to give you an honest, data-driven picture of your session rather than relying on your own perception.
- Automatic session end: if you prefer a hard stop rather than a gentle reminder, you can configure bc35 to automatically log you out when your pre-set session limit is reached.
Session controls work independently of deposit limits — you can use them together or separately depending on what works best for you. Both sets of controls are available in the Responsible Gaming section of your account settings.
If you feel that gambling is affecting your wellbeing, finances, or relationships, bc35's self-exclusion tool allows you to immediately block access to your account for a period of your choosing — from 30 days to permanent exclusion. Self-exclusion activates instantly and cannot be reversed during the exclusion period. Your account balance is preserved and returned to you after the period ends (for temporary exclusions).
Self-Exclusion: Full Details
Self-exclusion is the most powerful responsible gaming tool available on bc35. When you activate self-exclusion, your account is immediately suspended and you will be unable to log in, deposit, place bets, or access any bc35 service for the duration of the exclusion period. Any active bonus offers or pending promotions will be cancelled at the point of self-exclusion.
Available self-exclusion durations on bc35 are: 30 days (short-term cooling-off), 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and permanent exclusion. Permanent self-exclusion is irreversible — your account will be permanently closed and cannot be reopened under any circumstances. For temporary exclusions, you may request to reopen your account after the exclusion period ends, subject to a mandatory 7-day review period to ensure the request is not impulsive.
To activate self-exclusion, log in to your bc35 account and go to Account Settings > Responsible Gaming > Self-Exclusion. Alternatively, contact our 24/7 support team at [email protected] and request immediate self-exclusion — our team will process the request and confirm exclusion within 1 hour of receiving it.
Time-Out Feature
A time-out is a short, temporary break from bc35 — shorter than full self-exclusion but longer than a single session limit. It is designed for players who feel they need a brief pause to reassess their play without committing to a long exclusion period. During a time-out, your account remains open but all betting, deposit, and withdrawal functionality is suspended.
- 24-hour time-out: a one-day break, ideal after a significant loss session or when you feel emotionally affected by your play.
- 7-day time-out: a one-week break, useful for players who want to step back and evaluate whether their gambling habits are within healthy limits.
- 30-day time-out: a one-month break, recommended for players who have noticed a sustained pattern of play that concerns them or their family members.
⚠️ Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
- Spending more money on gambling than you can afford to lose, or gambling with money reserved for rent, food, or family expenses.
- Chasing losses — continuing to bet after a losing session in an attempt to win back what you have lost.
- Gambling for longer sessions than originally planned, or finding it difficult to stop playing even when you want to.
- Hiding your gambling activity from family members, or feeling the need to lie about how much time or money you spend on betting.
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when you are not gambling, or using gambling as a way to escape stress, emotional problems, or difficult life circumstances.
- Borrowing money from friends, family, or financial services to fund gambling activity, or selling personal belongings to generate betting funds.
Age Verification — 21+ Only
bc35 enforces a strict minimum age requirement of 21 years for all players. This is a non-negotiable requirement and applies to all Bangladeshi users of the platform regardless of the games they play, the amounts they deposit, or the frequency of their play. Age verification is conducted as part of the standard registration process, and all accounts are subject to enhanced KYC review where our systems detect any inconsistency in the age data provided.
Any account found to belong to a person under the age of 21 will be immediately suspended, all funds will be returned to the payment source used for deposit, and the account will be permanently closed. bc35 also encourages parents and guardians to use device-level parental control software to prevent minors from accessing online gambling platforms. If you believe a minor has created a bc35 account, contact [email protected] immediately.

Parental Controls
bc35 strongly encourages parents and guardians to take an active role in preventing minors from accessing online gambling services. While bc35 implements age verification at the platform level, device-level parental control software provides an additional layer of protection in households where shared devices are used. Popular parental control tools available in Bangladesh include built-in Android Family Link controls, iOS Screen Time settings, and third-party applications available on the Google Play Store.
If you are a parent or guardian concerned that a family member may be using bc35 without your knowledge, please contact our support team at [email protected]. We will treat your enquiry with full confidentiality and take prompt action to investigate and, where appropriate, close the account in question.
If you are concerned about your own gambling behaviour, or that of someone you care about, please do not hesitate to reach out. Our support team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We are trained to handle responsible gaming conversations with care, empathy, and full confidentiality. No judgement — just practical support.

Our Responsible Gaming Principles
bc35's responsible gaming programme is built on five core principles that guide every decision we make about player protection:
- Prevention first: we build responsible gaming tools directly into our platform and make them the easiest, most accessible features on bc35 — not hidden away in obscure menu paths.
- Player autonomy: we respect every player's right to make their own decisions. Our tools empower players to set their own limits and controls without requiring approval from bc35 staff.
- Transparency: we present gambling data honestly. Reality check notifications show accurate session data without minimising losses or exaggerating wins. We never frame gambling as a guaranteed path to profit.
- Swift intervention: when our monitoring systems detect patterns consistent with problem gambling, our support team proactively reaches out to the player to offer guidance, tools, or support — without waiting for the player to ask.
- Confidentiality: all responsible gaming interactions between players and bc35 staff are treated with complete confidentiality. Your responsible gaming settings are private and are never shared with other players or third parties.
