Gaming is meant to be fun — a form of entertainment, nothing more. At 99abai, we take our duty of care to every Pakistani player seriously. This page covers everything you need to know about our responsible gaming tools, how to recognise when gambling stops being enjoyable, and how to get help if you need it. Because the best win is always a happy, healthy player.
At 99abai, responsible gaming is not a legal checkbox — it is a genuine commitment woven into everything we do. From the moment you register your account to every deposit you make and every game you play, our systems are designed to keep your experience safe, controlled, and enjoyable.
We understand that for most players in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Faisalabad, and across Pakistan, online gaming on 99abai is a relaxing hobby — something to enjoy after a long day, during the PSL season, or while watching a live cricket match. That is exactly how it should stay. The moment gambling starts to feel like an obligation, a way to recover losses, or a source of stress, it is time to use the tools on this page.
99abai's responsible gaming programme is built around three core principles: prevention, intervention, and support. We prevent problem gambling through strict 21+ age verification and robust account controls. We intervene early through smart monitoring and proactive outreach when a player's behaviour changes. And we provide ongoing support through self-exclusion tools, spending limits, and referrals to professional counselling resources.
Pakistan has a growing online gaming community, and with that growth comes responsibility — both ours as an operator and yours as a player. 99abai works in alignment with international responsible gaming standards, including guidelines from the GamCare framework and the Responsible Gambling Council (RGC), adapting them for the Pakistani context and our player base.
Every feature described on this page is available to all registered 99abai players at no cost, at any time, with no waiting period. You do not need to justify your decision to use any of these tools. Our support team will never question, delay, or discourage you from activating any responsible gaming control on your account.
Every 99abai account must pass CNIC-based age verification before a single PKR can be deposited. No player under 21 years of age may register, deposit, or wager on the platform. Zero exceptions.
Your national ID is verified at registration and again when withdrawing funds above PKR 50,000.
A one-time PIN is sent to your registered Pakistani mobile number to confirm your identity at login.
For large transactions, 99abai may request additional documentation to confirm your identity and protect your account.
Six powerful controls — all free, all instant, all available inside your 99abai account settings right now
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap in PKR directly from your account settings. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Limits can be reduced immediately but increases require a 48-hour cooling-off period — a deliberate design choice to protect you.
Define the maximum amount in PKR you are comfortable losing within a set period. When your net losses reach this threshold, 99abai will automatically lock further wagering for the remainder of that period. This is one of the most effective tools for keeping gambling within a pre-agreed entertainment budget.
Set a maximum session duration — from 30 minutes to 4 hours — after which 99abai will display a prominent alert and log you out automatically. You can also enable periodic reminders every 30 or 60 minutes to stay aware of how long you have been playing. Time flies when you are having fun — use this tool to stay grounded.
Need a short break without fully closing your account? The cool-off feature lets you pause all gambling activity on 99abai for 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days. During a cool-off your account is locked for wagering, and no marketing messages will be sent. Your account and balance remain intact and accessible when the period ends.
Self-exclusion is a formal, binding commitment to stop gambling on 99abai for a defined period — from 6 months up to 5 years, or permanently. Once activated, your account is immediately and completely locked. You cannot deposit, wager, or access your game history. This is the most serious tool on this page and is designed for players who feel they have lost control.
Enable the reality check feature to receive an on-screen summary of your session — total wagers, net result in PKR, and time elapsed — at regular intervals. Combined with the persistent balance display option, this keeps you fully informed of your financial position at all times, eliminating the dissociation that can sometimes occur during extended gaming sessions.
Problem gambling rarely announces itself. These are the early and mid-stage warning signs that every 99abai player should be aware of
Increasing bets or playing longer to recover money already lost in a session.
Using rent, grocery, utility, or school fee money to fund gambling activity.
Concealing the amount of time or money spent on gambling from loved ones.
Feeling restless, anxious, or irritable when unable to access gambling platforms.
Regularly spending much longer gambling than originally intended.
Taking loans, using credit, or borrowing from friends or family specifically to fund gambling.
Needing to wager increasing amounts to feel the same level of excitement.
Repeatedly trying and failing to cut down or stop gambling on your own.
Missing work, family obligations, or social commitments because of gambling.
Using gambling to cope with stress, depression, anxiety, or personal problems.
Self-exclusion is the strongest responsible gaming tool available on 99abai. When you activate it, your account is locked immediately and completely — no access, no deposits, no wagers, and no marketing communications for the full duration of your chosen exclusion period. Here is exactly how the process works:
The entire process takes under 2 minutes and takes effect instantly.
Not ready for full self-exclusion? Start with spending and time limits — the most practical everyday tools for keeping your gaming in check.
Cap the total PKR you can deposit within a 24-hour rolling window. Ideal for daily budget discipline.
Set a weekly maximum across JazzCash, EasyPaisa, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank, and Raast combined.
The broadest cap — useful for players who prefer to set a monthly entertainment budget and stick to it.
Automatically end your session after a set duration. Choose from 30 min, 1 hr, 2 hrs, or 4 hrs max.
Define the maximum net loss per day, week, or month. When reached, wagering is paused automatically.
