Responsible Gaming

Betting on cricket is entertainment that costs money, the same way a cinema ticket does. The difference is that betting can create the illusion that the money is coming back. For most people it stays entertainment. For some it becomes a problem, and the slide is gradual enough that they are the last to notice. This page sets out what we do about it and what you can do yourself.

Our rules

  • 18+ only. We ask every new user's age and we close any ID found to belong to a minor, with the balance returned to the depositing account.
  • No credit. We do not extend credit, advance balances or accept deposits from anyone other than the ID holder.
  • No pressure. We do not message users to encourage deposits, push offers at people who have stopped playing, or chase inactive accounts.
  • Self-exclusion on request. Ask and we close the ID the same day. During the cooling-off period we will not reopen it, even if you ask.

Set your own limits

  1. Decide a monthly budget you could lose entirely without it affecting rent, food, EMIs or family. That is the only money that goes in.
  2. Cap each bet at five percent of your balance or less. Decide before the match starts, not during a session.
  3. Never chase. A lost session is not recovered by doubling the next one. Close the app for the day.
  4. Withdraw winnings rather than leaving them as balance. Money on the screen does not feel real; money in the bank does.
  5. Do not play when upset, tired or drunk. All three are reliable ways to break the rules above.

Warning signs

Any of these is a reason to stop and talk to someone:

  • Betting with money meant for something else, or borrowing to bet.
  • Hiding how much you play or lose from family.
  • Needing bigger stakes to feel the same interest.
  • Returning the next day to win back a loss.
  • Feeling restless or irritable when you cannot play.

How to self-exclude

Message us on WhatsApp and say you want to close your ID for gambling-control reasons. We confirm, withdraw any remaining balance to your registered account, and close the ID. You can choose a period of one month, three months, six months or permanent. We keep a record so that a new request for an ID during that period from the same number is refused.

Where to get help in India

Talking to someone is the single most effective step. Options include a trusted family member or friend, your family doctor, a counsellor or psychiatrist (many now offer telephone and video consultations), and national mental-health helplines that take calls about gambling. If money problems are already serious, speak to your bank about restructuring before missing an EMI. None of these conversations is as bad as you expect, and all of them are easier than another month of losses.

For families

If you believe a family member is playing with our IDs beyond their means, contact us. We cannot share account details with you, but we can speak to the account holder about limits and self-exclusion, and we will take a report of a minor seriously and act on it.

Questions about any of this: the contact page has the details. Read also about us.

18+ only. Online betting laws differ by Indian state; it is your responsibility to know the law where you live.
