Gaming on r98 is meant to be a fun, enjoyable way to spend your spare time — whether you are following the cricket season, checking out new slots or playing live casino. But it is important to stay in control. This page explains the tools r98 provides and the steps you can take to make sure your gaming stays within healthy limits.
At r98, we genuinely care about the wellbeing of every Pakistan player on our platform. Online gaming — whether it is slots, live casino, bingo or fish games — is entertainment, nothing more. It should never be seen as a way to make money, recover losses or sort out financial pressure.
The vast majority of players on r98 enjoy the platform within healthy limits. They set a budget, they play with what they can comfortably afford to lose, and they treat it the same way they would treat going to a cinema or watching a PSL match with friends — as a form of entertainment that costs a known, fixed amount.
For those who feel their habits are starting to get away from them, r98 has a full set of responsible gaming tools built directly into every player account. These tools are available at any time, cost nothing to use, and take effect immediately — no waiting periods, no questions asked.
All responsible gaming tools on r98 are accessible directly from your account settings. You do not need to contact support to set a deposit limit, request a cooling-off period or activate self-exclusion — you can do it yourself in seconds.
Every PKR you deposit should be money you are comfortable losing entirely. Never deposit funds you cannot afford to part with.
If you have hit your budget for the session, stop. Depositing more to try to win back what you have lost is one of the clearest signs of a problem.
Set session reminders so that you know how long you have been playing. Stepping away for a while keeps gaming in its proper place.
Avoid gaming when you are stressed, tired or upset. Decisions made in those states rarely reflect what you actually want to do with your money.
Every r98 player account comes with these tools built in. They are free, immediate and entirely in your hands.
Set a daily, weekly or monthly cap on how much PKR you can deposit into your r98 account. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. You can lower your limit at any time — increases take a cooling-off period to come into effect, giving you time to reconsider.
Takes Effect InstantlySet a time limit for each gaming session. When your chosen time is up, r98 will display a notification reminding you that you have reached your session limit. You stay in control of whether to continue or log out — the reminder is there to keep you aware of how long you have actually been playing.
Always AvailableDefine the maximum amount in PKR that you are comfortable losing within a set time period. If your net losses reach that threshold, r98 will pause further gaming activity for that period. This is one of the most effective tools for staying within a budget you have decided on in advance, before a session starts.
Takes Effect InstantlyIf you feel you need a short break from gaming without committing to a full exclusion, a cooling-off period lets you temporarily suspend access to your r98 account for a period ranging from 24 hours to several weeks. Your account and balance are fully preserved — you simply cannot log in or deposit during the chosen period.
Activate in 1 ClickFor players who feel they need a longer break or are concerned their gaming has become problematic, self-exclusion allows you to close access to your r98 account for an extended period — from several months up to a permanent exclusion. Any remaining balance will be returned to your registered JazzCash, Easypaisa or bank account.
Permanent Option AvailableEnable periodic reality check pop-ups that show you exactly how long you have been in your current session and your net win or loss position during that time. These are short, non-intrusive prompts that appear at intervals you choose. They are particularly useful if you tend to lose track of time when playing slots or live casino.
Fully CustomisableFor most players, online gaming stays exactly where it should be — a hobby that fits comfortably into daily life alongside work, family, cricket and everything else. But sometimes habits shift without us noticing. Here are some signs that gaming may be moving from entertainment into something that needs attention.
Recognising any of these patterns in yourself is not a sign of weakness — it is the first and most important step. Use the self-exclusion tool in your account or contact r98 support and our team will help you activate the right protection immediately.
The players who get the most out of r98 over the long run are the ones who keep it simple and stick to a few straightforward habits. None of these require willpower or discipline — they are just small choices that make gaming more enjoyable and sustainable.
Decide on a fixed PKR amount per month before you deposit anything. Treat it the same as any other entertainment expense.
Enable the session reminder feature in your account so you always know exactly how long you have been playing.
Slots, live casino and bingo are built around entertainment. Wins are a bonus, not the goal. Any session that was fun is a good session.
If you have had a tough day at work or an argument at home, give yourself some time before opening the app. Emotional gaming rarely ends well.
When you have hit your limit — whether it is time or budget — close the app and do something else. Tomorrow's sessions are always there.
