Responsible Gaming at mr88

mr88's Commitment to Safer Play

mr88 operates on a clear principle: gambling is a form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or escape problems. We actively promote responsible gaming practices and ask every player to approach the platform the same way — with a fixed budget, clear time limits, and the understanding that losses are a normal part of play.

Our responsible gaming framework covers deposit controls, activity limits, self-exclusion, age checks, and signposting to professional support. These are not optional add-ons — they are built into how the platform works.

Player Protection Tools

mr88 provides several account-level tools that any registered player can activate at any time. You do not need to contact support to use most of them — they are accessible directly from your account settings.

Available Controls

• Deposit limit — set a daily, weekly or monthly cap on how much you can top up.
• Loss limit — receive a warning and optional stop when net losses reach your chosen amount in a session, day or week.
• Session time reminder — the platform sends an in-session alert when you have been playing for 30, 60 or 90 minutes.
• Reality check — a pop-up that shows your net result at a set interval (e.g., every 30 minutes) so you have a clear picture of your session.
• Cooling-off period — take a break of 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days. During this period you cannot deposit or place bets.
• Self-exclusion — close your account for a minimum of 6 months or permanently. See the section below for the full process.

Deposit and Spending Limits

Setting a deposit limit is the most practical way to keep your gambling spend predictable. At mr88, the minimum single deposit is RM10. You can set a daily, weekly or monthly deposit ceiling below any amount you choose.

Reducing a limit is always instant. Increasing a limit or removing one is deliberately delayed by 72 hours — this gives you time to reconsider if the request was made impulsively.

Self-Exclusion and Account Cooling-Off

If you feel that gambling is becoming harmful, self-exclusion is a firm step you can take. Once activated, the account cannot be used to log in, deposit or place bets for the entire exclusion period. Any bonuses active at the time are voided, and the balance is returned to your registered payment method.

How to Request Self-Exclusion

1. 1
   Go to Account Settings Log in and navigate to Account > Responsible Gaming > Self-Exclusion.
2. 2
   Choose a Duration Select 6 months, 1 year, 3 years or Permanent. All options are binding for the full period.
3. 3
   Confirm Your Identity You will be asked to re-enter your password and confirm via email to prevent accidental exclusions.
4. 4
   Exclusion Activates Immediately Your account is locked within minutes. You will receive a confirmation email with the exclusion end date (or a permanent notice).
5. 5
   Balance Withdrawal Any remaining balance will be processed to your verified payment method within 3 business days.

Requests to end a self-exclusion before the agreed date are not accepted. This policy exists to make the tool meaningful. After the period ends, you must contact 24/7 Live Chat to reactivate your account; it will not reopen automatically.

Age Verification and Minor Protection

mr88 is strictly for players aged 18 and above. During registration, all users must confirm they are of legal age. Before processing a first withdrawal, mr88 requires identity verification using one of the following documents: National ID Card (MyKad), Passport, or Driving Licence. This KYC check typically completes within 2 hours.

If we have reason to believe an account is being accessed by a minor, we will suspend the account immediately and request full documentation before any action is taken. Any deposits made by an underage player will be returned, and any winnings are voided.

Parents and guardians can use third-party parental control software to restrict access to gambling sites on shared devices. We recommend setting device-level restrictions in addition to relying on platform controls.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling does not always look dramatic. It often starts with small changes in behaviour. The list below is not exhaustive, but if several of these apply to you or someone you know, it is worth seeking an honest self-assessment.

• Spending more time or money gambling than you planned to
• Chasing losses — depositing again after losing to try to win it back
• Gambling with money set aside for rent, food or bills
• Lying to friends or family about how much you gamble
• Feeling anxious, irritable or restless when you stop gambling
• Using gambling to cope with stress, loneliness or low mood
• Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
• Neglecting work, studies or relationships because of gambling
• Repeatedly trying to cut down but finding it difficult

Recognising a pattern is the first step. The tools described in this page can help, and confidential professional support is available — no referral needed.
