Gambling is entertainment. It should be enjoyable, voluntary and always within your personal means. bet87 takes responsible gambling seriously — not as a compliance checkbox, but as a genuine commitment to every player who uses our platform. This page explains our tools, your options and where to find help if you need it.
Our Commitment
Any bet87 player can request a self-exclusion at any time — temporarily or permanently. Once activated, your account is suspended for the chosen period and cannot be reopened during that time. We process these requests promptly.
Set daily, weekly or monthly caps on how much you deposit or lose. Once a limit is in place, it takes effect immediately. Reducing a limit is instant; increasing a limit requires a cooling-off period to protect against impulsive changes.
Time has a way of slipping when you're engaged in gaming. bet87 lets you set session time reminders and hard session limits. When your session limit is reached, you are automatically logged out until the next session period begins.
During active gaming sessions, you can enable periodic on-screen notifications that show how long you have been playing and the net outcome of your session. These brief check-ins help you make more conscious decisions about continuing.
Not ready for full self-exclusion? A cool-off pause suspends your account for a short defined period — 24 hours, 48 hours, one week or one month. During a cool-off, you cannot log in, deposit or place wagers of any kind.
Your full betting history, deposit and withdrawal records and session activity logs are always accessible from your account dashboard. Reviewing your history regularly is one of the simplest and most effective responsible gambling practices.
Tools in Detail
bet87 embeds responsible gambling controls directly into every player account. These tools are not hidden in obscure settings menus — they are accessible from your main account panel at any time, on any device.
Whether you are based in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad or anywhere else, the same suite of protective tools is available to every registered bet87 player. You do not need to contact support to set most limits — you can do it yourself, instantly, from within your account.
If you do need assistance applying a limit, setting up self-exclusion or accessing your gambling history, our support team is available around the clock. Email us at [email protected]. English-language support is standard; Urdu-language assistance is available on request.
Immediate Effect: All protective limits — deposit, loss, session and cool-off — take effect the moment you set them. There is no delay, no pending approval and no way to bypass them once applied.
Set a maximum amount you can deposit per day, per week or per calendar month. Once your chosen limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Illustrative example: you could set a weekly deposit cap of PKR 5,000 to keep your play within a defined budget. Actual limits are configurable within your account cashier.
A loss limit caps the total amount you can lose within a set period — separate from deposits. If your net losses reach the limit you have chosen, the Platform will prevent further wagering until the limit period expires. Reducing your loss limit is immediate; increasing it requires a review period.
Beyond deposits and losses, you can also set a maximum single wager size. This is useful for players who want to enjoy the entertainment experience without the risk of a single large bet causing outsized impact on their balance.
Choose a maximum duration for each gaming session — from 30 minutes to several hours. When the session time limit is reached, you receive a notification and are then logged out automatically. A mandatory break is applied before you can start a new session.
A cool-off is a short-term account suspension lasting between 24 hours and 30 days. Your account is disabled for the chosen period. You can request a cool-off instantly from your account settings or by contacting support. This is not a permanent exclusion — your account returns to active status automatically when the period ends.
Self-exclusion is a more significant step than a cool-off. You choose a minimum exclusion period — typically from six months upwards — or opt for permanent closure. During self-exclusion, your account is suspended, you cannot open a new account and you will not receive any marketing communications from bet87. To begin self-exclusion, contact support at [email protected] with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request".

Know the Signs
For most people, gambling is a straightforward form of entertainment — like watching a PSL match or catching a UFC bout. But for some, it can escalate beyond entertainment into something that causes real harm.
Problem gambling does not always look dramatic. It often develops gradually, through small shifts in behaviour that are easy to miss. The signs below are widely recognised indicators that gambling may be moving out of balance. Awareness is the first step.
If you recognise any of these patterns in yourself or someone close to you, please use the tools in your account or reach out for support. You are not alone, and early action makes a meaningful difference.
Gambling with money set aside for essential expenses — rent, groceries, bills or school fees.
Chasing losses — placing larger or more frequent bets to recover money already lost.
Spending more time gambling than you originally intended, finding it difficult to stop once you start.
Hiding or downplaying your gambling activity from family or friends in Karachi, Lahore or wherever you are based.
Feeling anxious, irritable or restless when you are not able to gamble, or when trying to reduce or stop.
Borrowing money, selling personal items or taking loans to fund gambling activity.
Neglecting work, study, family relationships or social commitments because of time or money spent on gambling.
Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, boredom or difficult life events rather than as straightforward entertainment.
Repeatedly making and breaking promises to yourself or others about cutting back or stopping gambling.
Spending increasing amounts of money to achieve the same level of excitement — sometimes called gambling tolerance.
Self-Assessment
This is not a clinical diagnostic tool. It is a set of reflective questions based on widely used responsible gambling frameworks. If you answer "yes" to several of these, consider using bet87's protective tools or seeking support.
If you answered "yes" to two or more of these questions, it may be worth taking a closer look at your gambling habits. Using bet87's account controls — deposit limits, session limits, cool-off or self-exclusion — is a straightforward first step. You can also reach our support team any time at [email protected].
How It Works
Self-excluding from bet87 is straightforward and takes effect immediately. Here is the process from start to finish.
To begin self-exclusion, either navigate to the Responsible Gambling section of your account settings, or send an email to [email protected] with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request". Both routes are available 24 hours a day.
Select a minimum exclusion period — typically six months, one year or indefinite/permanent. Our support team will confirm your choice and the start date. There is no maximum period; permanent exclusion is always available.
Your bet87 account is suspended as soon as self-exclusion is confirmed. You will not be able to log in, deposit, wager or access the Platform for the full duration of the exclusion period. Any remaining balance is handled in accordance with our Terms & Conditions.
bet87 will immediately cease all promotional and marketing communications to your registered contact details for the entire duration of your exclusion period. This includes email newsletters, bonus notifications and any other platform communications.
At the end of your selected exclusion period, your account does not reactivate automatically. You must make a deliberate request to reinstate access. We may ask you to confirm you have considered your decision carefully before your account is returned to active status.
Important: Self-exclusion cannot be reversed or shortened once it is in effect. If you are struggling with gambling, we strongly encourage you to set the longest period you are comfortable with. You can always contact us before the period ends to discuss your options.
Protection of Minors
bet87 enforces a strict adults-only policy. Access to the Platform, its games, betting markets and promotional materials is exclusively for persons aged 18 and above — or the higher minimum age required by the operator's license jurisdiction. There are no exceptions.
We carry out age verification as part of our standard KYC process. Where there is any doubt about a User's age, the account is suspended pending verification. Accounts found to belong to minors are closed immediately and associated transactions reviewed.
If you share a device with minors, we recommend using parental control software to prevent access to gambling sites. A number of widely available tools — including built-in family safety controls on Android and iOS devices — can help restrict access. This is particularly important for households in Pakistan where multiple family members may share a single device.
If you have reason to believe that a person under the minimum required age has registered on bet87 or is using your account, please contact us immediately:
Email our safeguarding team:
[email protected]Use the subject line "Minor Account Report". We treat these reports with absolute priority and investigate them immediately. Your report will be handled with complete confidentiality.
