18+ Only — Underage Gambling Is Strictly Prohibited

The fc999 platform is available exclusively to adults aged 18 years and above. Anyone under the age of 18 is not permitted to create an account, deposit funds, or participate in any betting or casino activity on this platform. Age verification is conducted on all accounts as part of the KYC process.

At fc999, we believe that a sustainable platform is built on player wellbeing, not just winning bets. Responsible gaming is not a legal formality — it is a core part of how fc999 operates. Whether you are enjoying cricket betting on the BPL, spinning slots, or exploring the live casino, you should always feel in control of how much time and money you spend.

This page provides a complete overview of the responsible gaming framework at fc999, covering the practical tools available to you, how to recognise warning signs of problem gambling, the step-by-step process for setting limits or requesting exclusions, and where to turn if gambling ever stops feeling like fun.

If you have any concerns about your gambling behaviour — or about someone you know — the fc999 support team is available around the clock. Contact us at [email protected] (plain text — not a clickable link) or use the 24/7 live chat on the platform.

Golden Rules of Safe Play
  • Set a Budget Before You Play

    Decide on a fixed amount you are comfortable losing before each session. Never chase losses by depositing more than you planned.

  • Treat Gambling as Entertainment

    Gambling is a leisure activity, not a source of income. Approach every session with the mindset that the cost is the price of entertainment.

  • Take Regular Breaks

    Step away from the screen regularly. Long uninterrupted sessions can cloud judgement and lead to impulsive decisions.

  • Never Gamble Under Stress

    Avoid gambling when you are anxious, upset, or emotionally distressed. Decisions made under stress are rarely rational ones.


How fc999 Protects Every Player

Six pillars that define the responsible gaming environment fc999 maintains for all players across Bangladesh.

Strict Age Verification

Every new account undergoes mandatory age and identity verification. Players who cannot confirm they are 18 or older are blocked from all gameplay and transaction activity without exception.

Deposit and Loss Limits

Players can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit caps and loss limits directly within their account dashboard. Once a limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets.

Self-Exclusion Programme

Any player can request a self-exclusion period ranging from 30 days to permanent account closure. During exclusion, all login access, promotional communications, and deposit functionality are suspended.

Session Time-Out

The time-out tool allows players to temporarily pause their account for a chosen period — from 24 hours up to 6 weeks — without full account closure. Useful for short breaks when play starts to feel excessive.

Reality Checks

Optional session notifications remind players how long they have been playing and how much they have spent during the current session, helping maintain awareness of time and money in real time.

24/7 Dedicated Support

The fc999 support team is available around the clock via live chat and email. Players can request responsible gaming interventions, account reviews, or guidance at any time, with no waiting period.


Your Responsible Gaming Toolkit

All tools listed below are available to every registered fc999 player and can be activated at any time through account settings or by contacting support.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum deposit amount per day, week, or month. Limits take effect immediately when set and can only be reduced instantly — increases require a 7-day cooling-off period before they activate.

Instant Activation

Loss Limits

Cap the total amount you can lose within a defined time window. When your net losses reach the set threshold, further betting is paused until the limit period expires.

Instant Activation

Wagering Limits

Restrict the total value of bets placed per session, day, or week across all games and sports markets. Ideal for players who want volume control rather than pure financial caps.

Instant Activation

Time-Out

Take a break from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. Your account is temporarily suspended — no login, no deposits, no bets. Funds remain safe and withdrawals are still processed during a time-out.

Instant Activation

Self-Exclusion

Choose a self-exclusion period of 30 days, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or permanent. During exclusion, your account is fully locked — all access, bonuses, and marketing are suspended. Permanent exclusion cannot be reversed. To apply, contact [email protected] or use live chat.

Cooling-Off Period Applies

Reality Check Notifications

Enable session alerts that pop up at set intervals (e.g., every 30 or 60 minutes) showing your total session time and net position. Each alert prompts you to decide whether to continue or stop — keeping you fully aware of your activity.

Instant Activation

Account History Review

Access your full transaction and gameplay history at any time from your account dashboard. Reviewing your history regularly is one of the most effective ways to stay on top of your spending and identify any patterns that concern you.

Always Available

Important: All responsible gaming tools are free to use and available to every registered player. fc999 staff will never discourage or delay a player from activating limits, time-outs, or self-exclusion. If you encounter any difficulty using these tools, contact support immediately at [email protected] (plain text only — not a clickable link).

Need help? If you cannot access your account settings or prefer not to configure limits yourself, contact the fc999 support team via live chat or at [email protected] and a member of staff will apply the requested controls on your behalf within one hour.

Requesting Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is the strongest responsible gaming tool available. Use it when you feel gambling has become difficult to control.

  • 1
    Contact fc999 Support Directly

    Reach the fc999 team via 24/7 live chat on the platform, or send an email to [email protected]. State clearly that you wish to activate self-exclusion and your preferred duration.

  • 2
    Select Your Exclusion Period

    Choose from: 30 days, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or permanent exclusion. The support agent will confirm your selection and explain what it entails before proceeding.

  • 3
    Immediate Account Lock

    Your account is locked within 1 hour of the request being confirmed. All login attempts are blocked, all active sessions are terminated, and marketing communications are stopped.

  • 4
    Pending Balance Withdrawal

    Any verified balance remaining in your account at the time of exclusion will be processed for withdrawal to your registered bKash, Nagad, or Rocket account within 3–5 business days.

  • 5
    Reinstatement (Non-Permanent Only)

    After the exclusion period ends, you may request reinstatement. A mandatory 7-day cooling-off period applies before the account is reactivated. Permanent exclusions cannot be reversed under any circumstances.

Permanent Exclusion: Once a permanent self-exclusion is confirmed, fc999 will not accept any reinstatement request regardless of the time elapsed. This is a deliberate safeguard for players with serious gambling concerns. Please consider the decision carefully before requesting permanent exclusion.


Recognising Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. Being aware of the warning signs — in yourself or someone you care about — is the first step toward addressing it.

  • Spending more on gambling than you can realistically afford
  • Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
  • Chasing losses by placing larger bets to try to recover previous losses
  • Neglecting bills, rent, or essential expenses due to gambling spend
  • Hiding bank statements or transaction history from family members

  • Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when not gambling
  • Using gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety, or negative emotions
  • Experiencing mood swings tied directly to winning or losing outcomes
  • Repeatedly trying to cut back on gambling without success
  • Lying to family or friends about the amount of time or money spent gambling

  • Withdrawing from family, friends, and social commitments to gamble
  • Neglecting work, studies, or personal responsibilities
  • Family members or close friends expressing concern about your gambling habits
  • Gambling becoming a primary topic of thought throughout the day
  • Relationship conflict arising from gambling-related financial stress or deception

  • Disrupted sleep patterns due to late-night gambling sessions
  • Neglecting meals, exercise, or personal health while gambling
  • Increased alcohol or tobacco consumption in conjunction with gambling
  • Physical symptoms of stress or anxiety connected to gambling outcomes
  • General deterioration in physical wellbeing attributed to extended play sessions

If you recognise three or more of the above signs in your own behaviour, we strongly encourage you to activate a time-out or self-exclusion immediately and seek support. Early intervention is significantly more effective than waiting until problems escalate.

Ask Yourself These Questions

Honest self-assessment is a powerful first step. If you answer "yes" to several of the questions below, consider speaking with a support professional or activating responsible gaming controls on your fc999 account.

Q1

Have you ever spent more money gambling than you originally planned to for that session?

Q2

Have you ever returned to gambling the following day in order to try to win back money you lost previously?

Q3

Have you ever felt the need to keep your gambling activity secret from family members or close friends?

Q4

Have you ever borrowed money — from friends, family, or any financial source — specifically to fund gambling activity?

Q5

Have you ever felt that gambling was negatively affecting your work, studies, relationships, or personal finances?

Q6

Have you tried to cut down or stop gambling but found it difficult to follow through on that intention?

Q7

Do you find yourself thinking about gambling frequently during the day, even when you are not actively playing?

Q8

Have you ever gambled to escape feelings of stress, depression, anxiety, or personal problems rather than purely for enjoyment?

If you answered yes to 3 or more questions: Please reach out to the fc999 support team immediately at [email protected] or via live chat. Our team is trained to assist with responsible gaming concerns and can help you activate the appropriate protective measures on your account without judgement.


fc999 Player Protection Policy

Underage Gambling Prevention

fc999 employs a multi-layer approach to prevent underage gambling. All new player registrations require submission of a government-issued identity document — such as a National Identity Card (NID) — confirming that the applicant is at least 18 years of age. Accounts that fail age verification are permanently blocked before any gaming activity or deposit is permitted. If fc999 discovers at any point that a player is under the age of 18, the account is closed immediately and any funds held are returned to the source payment method.

We strongly encourage parents and guardians in Bangladesh to use parental control software to restrict access to online gambling platforms on devices used by minors. Free tools such as Net Nanny, Qustodio, and similar services can assist with this.

Vulnerable Player Protections

fc999 monitors for behavioural patterns consistent with problem gambling, including unusually rapid increases in deposit frequency, escalating bet sizes following a losing sequence, or extended single-session play durations. Where such patterns are detected, our responsible gaming team may proactively contact the player to offer support or suggest activating protective controls. Players may also proactively flag themselves as vulnerable by contacting support, which triggers an enhanced account monitoring protocol.

Marketing and Bonus Restrictions for At-Risk Players

Players who have activated any responsible gaming tool — including deposit limits, loss limits, time-outs, or self-exclusions — are automatically removed from all promotional marketing lists for the duration of the active restriction. fc999 does not target players with bonus offers during or immediately following a responsible gaming intervention.

Staff Training

All fc999 customer support staff receive training on recognising the signs of problem gambling and on the appropriate procedures for handling responsible gaming requests sensitively and without delay. Responsible gaming tool activation requests are treated as highest priority and are processed ahead of general support queries.

Responsible Gaming During Seasonal Events

During high-volume betting periods — such as the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL), IPL season, T20 World Cup, or major festive periods like Eid — fc999 increases monitoring activity and may send proactive responsible gaming reminders to players showing elevated activity levels. These reminders are informational only and do not affect account access or gameplay.

Deposit Safety

fc999 integrates responsible gaming directly into the deposit flow for players using bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Visa, and Mastercard.

Deposit Cap Enforcement

Once a deposit limit is set, the payment gateway blocks transactions that would exceed the active limit — regardless of which payment method is used. The player sees a clear notification explaining why the transaction was declined.

Account Lock During Exclusion

All deposit methods — including bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and card payments — are disabled at the payment processor level during an active self-exclusion or time-out. Players cannot circumvent account controls by using an alternative payment method.

Cooling-Off on Limit Increases

Requests to increase a deposit or loss limit are subject to a mandatory 7-day delay. This cooling-off period protects players from impulsively raising their own limits during or immediately after a losing session.


Support Resources

You do not have to deal with gambling concerns alone. The following resources are available to players in Bangladesh and beyond.

fc999 Support Team

Our responsible gaming team is available 24/7 via live chat on the platform. For email enquiries, write to [email protected]. Response time is within 2–6 hours (BST UTC+6). All responsible gaming requests are handled with full confidentiality.

National Mental Health Helpline

Bangladesh's Kaan Pete Roi helpline provides emotional support and mental health counselling. If gambling stress is affecting your mental wellbeing, speaking with a trained counsellor can provide immediate relief and practical guidance on next steps.

Helpline Available

Gamblers Anonymous

International Support

Talk to Someone You Trust

Sometimes the most effective first step is an honest conversation with a trusted family member or close friend. Sharing concerns about gambling can relieve pressure, provide perspective, and open the door to practical support from people who know you personally.

Personal Support

Professional Counselling

Qualified psychologists and counsellors practising in Dhaka and other major Bangladeshi cities can provide structured therapy for gambling-related concerns. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) has a strong evidence base for treating compulsive gambling behaviours effectively.
