Your wellbeing matters - tools, resources, and guidance for healthy gaming habits
PPBIP services are exclusively for individuals aged 18 years and above. Gaming activities involve financial risk and are not suitable for minors. We implement strict age verification procedures and will immediately close accounts found to belong to individuals under 18. Parents and guardians should monitor internet usage to prevent underage access to gaming platforms.
Responsible gaming means approaching gaming activities as entertainment with associated costs, not as income opportunities or solutions to financial problems. PPBIP is committed to promoting safe gaming practices and providing tools to help Bangladesh users maintain healthy relationships with gaming entertainment. This page explains warning signs of problem gaming, available control tools, and support resources.
Gaming should be one leisure activity among many diverse interests and hobbies. When approached responsibly, gaming provides entertainment value similar to other paid recreational activities like cinema, dining out, or sporting events. However, gaming involves chance elements with unpredictable outcomes, meaning most participants will lose more than they win over time.
PPBIP provides tools and resources supporting these principles, but you bear primary responsibility for managing your gaming behavior. If gaming stops being enjoyable or begins causing problems in your life, take immediate action using the tools and resources described below.
Problem gaming develops when gaming activities begin causing negative consequences in your life. Early recognition of warning signs allows you to take corrective action before problems escalate. Be honest with yourself when assessing whether these warning signs apply to your situation.
If you recognize multiple warning signs in your behavior, take immediate action. Use PPBIP responsible gaming tools, take breaks from gaming, and consider seeking professional support. Problem gaming is treatable, and early intervention leads to better outcomes.
Answer these questions honestly to assess whether your gaming behavior remains within healthy boundaries:
If you answered yes to several questions, your gaming may be problematic. Consider using PPBIP control tools and accessing support resources. Professional counseling can help you develop healthier patterns.
PPBIP provides several tools helping you maintain control over your gaming activities. These tools are available through your account settings and can be adjusted as needed to support your responsible gaming goals.
Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on the amount you can deposit into your PPBIP account. Once set, deposit limits cannot be increased immediately, with cooling-off periods applied to limit increases. Decreases take effect immediately.
Establish maximum loss amounts for specific time periods. When you reach your loss limit, you cannot continue gaming until the time period resets. This tool helps prevent chasing losses and protects against excessive spending.
Set maximum session durations to prevent extended gaming periods. You will receive notifications when approaching your time limit and will be logged out when the limit is reached. This helps maintain balance with other activities.
Temporarily suspend your account for periods ranging from 24 hours to several weeks. During break periods, you cannot access your account or gaming activities. Breaks provide space to reassess your gaming behavior.
Permanently or temporarily block your access to PPBIP for extended periods from six months to permanent exclusion. Self-exclusion cannot be reversed during the exclusion period. This is the strongest control tool for serious concerns.
Receive periodic notifications during gaming sessions showing how long you have been playing and your current session results. These reminders help maintain awareness of time passage and spending.
All responsible gaming tools are available through your PPBIP account settings under the Responsible Gaming section. You can set, modify, or remove limits at any time, though increases to protective limits include cooling-off periods. If you need assistance configuring these tools, contact customer support for guidance.
Responsible financial management is essential for healthy gaming participation. Follow these guidelines to maintain control over gaming-related spending:
If you believe your gaming behavior has become problematic, seeking help demonstrates strength and self-awareness, not weakness. Professional support services can help you understand problem gaming, develop coping strategies, and establish healthier patterns.
Consider professional counseling or support services if you experience:
While PPBIP does not provide counseling services directly, we encourage users experiencing problem gaming to access qualified professional support. Problem gaming counselors and support organizations can provide confidential assistance, treatment programs, and ongoing support for recovery.
Many problem gaming support services offer:
If gaming is causing problems in your life, do not wait for the situation to worsen. Reach out for help today through professional counseling services or support organizations. Early intervention leads to better outcomes. You can also contact PPBIP customer support to implement self-exclusion or other protective measures while you seek professional assistance.
If you are concerned about a family member's gaming behavior, your support can play an important role in helping them recognize problems and seek assistance. However, you cannot force someone to change their behavior—they must recognize the problem and choose to seek help themselves.
Parents and guardians should take active steps to prevent underage access to gaming platforms:

Remember that PPBIP customer support can help you configure control tools but cannot provide counseling services. For problem gaming counseling, please access qualified professional support services.
Gaming involves financial risk and most participants lose money over time. Approach gaming as paid entertainment with associated costs, never as income generation or financial solutions. Use only discretionary funds you can afford to lose. If gaming causes problems in your life, take immediate action using PPBIP control tools and seek professional support. You are not alone, and help is available.
