Poki Responsible Gaming — Your Complete Guide to Safe Gaming

Your safety is our responsibility

Gaming should be fun — not stressful. poki is always here for you.

Poki believes every member deserves to play with a clear head, within their means, and for the joy of it. That's why responsible gaming tools and support are available to everyone, at all times.

Why This Page Matters

Responsible play isn't just about following rules – it's about taking care of yourself. PokiAt , we want gaming to remain a positive experience for every member — that's why this page provides detailed tools, guidelines, and support information. If anything is unclear, reach out to our support team in Bangla.

What is responsible gaming and why does it matter

Online gaming or betting is enjoyable only when it stays within your control. Responsible Play means playing in a way that doesn't negatively affect other areas of your life — your family, work, financial security, or mental well-being.

PokiAt , we've believed this from day one: gaming should be for entertainment, not as a regular source of income. Winning is great when it happens, but losses should always stay within an amount you can manage. That's why we put budget limits first.

Many people in Bangladesh enjoy online gaming on their phones. It's a new form of entertainment that's growing fast — but it also carries risks, especially for those who are vulnerable or in a financially limited situation. Poki takes active steps to reduce that risk.

Responsible Play-'s core principles are straightforward: never bet more than you can afford to lose, don't chase losses, never game on credit, and take a break when you feel you need one. Keep these four principles in mind and PokiYour experience playing on - will always be a positive one.

Early on, I was spending a bit too much time playing. Then I set up Poki's deposit limit feature – since then, no stress at all. It genuinely feels like I'm playing just for fun.

PokiAll responsible gaming tools on -'s platform are completely free and available to everyone. Using them isn't a sign of weakness — it's a sign of self-awareness.

Poki We never want any of our members to face that situation. That's why we proactively monitor for unusual betting patterns and step in with support when needed.

If you feel a family member is spending too much time and money on gaming — or if you yourself feel it's getting out of control — don't delay, contact PokiReach out to -'s support team. We won't judge — we're here to help.

Poki's Responsible Gaming Tools

These tools are available free of charge to all members. They can be set up through Account Settings or by contacting support.

Deposit Limit

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on deposits. Once the limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted. Lowering a limit takes effect immediately; increasing one takes effect after 24 hours.

Instantly Active

Cool-off Period

Take a temporary break ranging from 24 hours up to 30 days. During this period, you won't be able to log in to your account. Once the break ends, your account will be reactivated automatically.

Flexible duration

Self-Exclusion

For a longer break, close your account for anywhere between 6 months and 5 years. During this period, you won't receive any bonuses or marketing messages either.

Long-term protection

Session Time Limit

Set a time limit for each gaming session. Once the time is up, you'll receive an automatic reminder and can log out if you choose.

Time Awareness

Loss Limit

Decide in advance the maximum amount you're comfortable losing in a day or a week. Once that limit is reached, no further bets can be placed – it's time to take a break.

How to set limits – step by step

  1. Log In to Your Account

    Log in to poki.bio with your mobile number and password. Click on your profile icon in the top right corner.

  2. Go to Account Settings

    From the profile menu, select "Account Settings". There you will find the "Responsible Gaming" tab.

  3. Choose the Tool That Works for You

    Deposit limit, loss limit, session time, or self-exclusion — choose what you need and set your amount or time frame.

  4. Confirm

    Click the "Save" button. Reducing a limit takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a 24-hour waiting period — this is intentional, to prevent decisions made in the heat of the moment.

What to Do If a Family Member Has a Gaming Problem

Sometimes a family member notices a problem before the person themselves does. If someone at home is spending an unusual amount of time or money on gaming, or it's affecting their daily life, there are steps you can take.

Rather than confronting them directly, start with a calm conversation. A simple question like "Are you doing okay?" can often make a big difference. If they seem unwilling to talk, then Poki's support team — we can advise you based on your situation.

PokiA parent or family member may request self-exclusion on behalf of a member with an account on -; however, verification of the member will be required. Contact support for more details.

I noticed my husband was spending a bit too much time on it, so I messaged poki's support team. They were incredibly understanding, offered helpful advice, and helped set up a deposit limit. Things are much better now.
