What do we mean by responsible gaming?
Responsible Gaming It means keeping gaming as a form of entertainment — not a way to solve life's problems or earn an income. iq999 believes every player should have full control over their time, money, and mental well-being. We are committed to creating an environment where gaming stays enjoyable and never becomes harmful.
Online gaming — especially slots, fish games, and other fast-paced titles — can carry a real risk of addiction. Gaming is growing rapidly in Bangladesh, and its influence on younger generations is increasing. At iq999, we want you to play mindfully, stay within your set budget, and ensure that gaming never has a negative impact on your family life or finances.
Responsible gaming is more than a rule — it's a mindset. When gaming shifts from enjoyment to compulsion, that's the moment to take notice. iq999 wants to help you build that awareness.
Gaming is always meant to be entertainment. Placing more bets in hopes of recovering lost money is a dangerous trap — known as "Chasing Losses" and is one of the key signs of problem gambling.
What are the signs of problem gaming?
We don't always notice when our gaming habits have reached a dangerous level. Check the signs below — if more than one applies to you, don't wait to seek help.
Spending beyond your budget, borrowing money to play, or struggling to pay bills — these are serious warning signs.
Playing for hours on end, skipping sleep or meals — this is a clear sign of addiction.
If gaming is causing arguments with family or friends, or you find yourself hiding it — don't ignore these warning signs.
Feeling restless or anxious when not playing, and gaming becoming your only source of calm — these are warning signs.
If any of the above signs apply to you, there's no shame in it. Acknowledging the problem is the first step toward a solution. Reach out to iq999's support team or the organizations listed below.
iq999 Protection Tools
Iq999 provides multiple powerful tools for all its users Responsible Gaming Tools These tools are available anytime from your account settings and take effect immediately.
How to Set Limits
Set your own limits before you start playing. Setting limits on iq999 is simple and takes just a few minutes.
Log in to your account
Go to the "Responsible Gaming" option in your profile menu.
Choose your limit type
Deposit, session, or loss limits — choose one or more based on your needs.

Lowering a limit takes effect immediately. However, to increase a limit, you must wait through a mandatory cooling-off period — this prevents impulsive overspending in the heat of the moment.
Simple rules for budget planning
Decide in advance how much you're willing to spend on gaming. A simple rule: your gaming budget should only be money you can afford to lose without it affecting your daily life.
- Maximum percentage of monthly income 2–5% allocate to gaming.
- Allocate gaming funds from your entertainment budget, not from money set aside for essentials.
- Instead of spending your entire budget in one session, split it into smaller portions.
- Stop when you hit your limit — wait until the next day.
What is Self-Exclusion and how do I apply it?
Self-Exclusion This is a tool that lets you completely close your own account for a set period of time. During this time, you will not be able to log in, make deposits, or play any games. iq999 treats self-exclusion as the highest priority, and no promotional communications will be sent during this period.
Short-Term Exclusion
7 days, 14 days, or 30 days — for when you feel like you just need a short break.
Long-term Exclusion
3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or up to 5 years — for when you truly need a real break.
Permanent Closure
To permanently close your account, please contact our support team.
Protection During Exclusion
If Self-Exclusion is active, any attempt to open a new account will be detected and flagged.
Once Self-Exclusion is activated, it cannot be cancelled before the period ends. This is intentional — it prevents you from reversing your decision in a moment of impulse.
