At 8bet, we believe healthy gambling starts with awareness and self-control. This page contains all the tools, guidelines, and resources you need to keep your gaming experience enjoyable and in control.
Our comprehensive approach ensures every player enjoys a safe and controlled betting experience
8bet enforces a minimum age requirement of 18 for all users. A thorough KYC process ensures no underage individuals can access our platform. Identity verification is completed before any financial transaction is processed.
We provide a range of easy-to-use self-control tools accessible directly from your account — including deposit limits, loss limits, play time limits, and a temporary break option. All controls are available 24 hours a day with no need to contact support.
For players who feel they need a more serious break, 8bet offers a full self-exclusion option for periods ranging from 1 month to permanent. Excluded accounts cannot access any games throughout the duration of the exclusion.
Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on your deposits and losses. These limits take effect immediately and cannot be increased within 24 hours of being changed — giving you control that truly matters.
Set the maximum duration for each of your playing sessions. Once the time limit is reached, the 8bet system will automatically notify you and can end the session based on your chosen settings.
The 8bet support team is trained to assist players who need guidance on responsible gambling. We are here to listen and connect you with the right resources — without judgment.
Gambling should be enjoyable entertainment, not a source of stress or financial difficulty. If you or someone you know needs help, the 8bet team is available at any time via live chat on the platform.
Responsible gambling refers to a set of values, practices, and controls that keep gambling activities a healthy and controlled form of entertainment. This concept involves not only individual players but also the responsibility of platforms like 8bet to provide a safe and fair environment.
At 8bet, responsible gaming means we:
Responsible gambling starts with a clear decision: you play for fun, not to cope with financial pressure or escape from problems. When you hold the right perspective, your experience playing at 8bet will be far more enjoyable and meaningful.
Remember — money you use for gambling should be disposable funds you can afford to lose without affecting your daily needs or financial responsibilities. That is the foundation of healthy and responsible gambling.
One of the most important steps in responsible gambling is recognising the early signs of a gambling problem. Here are some warning signs to watch for in yourself or those around you:
If you recognise two or more of the signs above in yourself, we encourage you to reach out to the 8bet support team or use the self-control tools we provide. There is no shame in asking for help — it is a sign of courage and wisdom.
8bet provides a comprehensive set of self-control tools, easily accessible directly from your account settings. All tools are designed to empower you to manage your gaming experience:
Set the maximum amount you can deposit within a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Limits take effect immediately; reductions apply instantly while increases require a 24-hour cooling-off period.
Cap the maximum amount you can lose within a set period. Once this limit is reached, the system will automatically block any further wagering until the limit period resets or you make a revision.
Set the maximum duration for each session or your total daily playing time. The system will send a notification when the limit is approaching and can automatically end the session based on your preference.
If you feel you need a short break, the temporary break option lets you lock your account for 24 hours, 48 hours, one week, or one month without going through the full self-exclusion process.
All these tools are accessible through the Account Settings > Responsible Gambling on the 8bet platform. If you need help setting any of these limits, our live support team is available at any time.
Setting limits in your 8bet account is a straightforward process that can be done in just a few steps. Here is a step-by-step guide:
Access your 8bet account using your registered username and password. Always use your personal device to keep your account secure.
Click on your profile icon in the top-right corner of the screen, then select "Account Settings" from the dropdown menu that appears.
On the Account Settings page, look for the "Responsible Gaming" or "Self-Control" section and click on it to view all available options.
Select the type of limit you want to set — deposit, loss, playing time, or a temporary break. Enter the appropriate value and choose the limit period (daily, weekly, or monthly).
Review the limits you have set and click the "Confirm" button to activate them. You will receive an email confirmation that your limits have been successfully applied.
Self-exclusion is a more serious option for players who feel they need to stop gambling entirely for an extended period. 8bet offers self-exclusion across several different durations:
During the self-exclusion period, 8bet will ensure you do not receive any marketing or promotional communications. Any valid credit balance in your account will be processed for withdrawal in accordance with established procedures.
Self-exclusion takes effect immediately upon submission. If you wish to reverse the exclusion before the period ends (except for permanent exclusion), you will need to contact the support team and go through a 7-day safety cooling-off period.
8bet takes child protection extremely seriously. Our platform is strictly intended for individuals aged 18 and above, and we enforce multiple measures to prevent access by children or minors.
If you share a device with younger family members, we recommend the following additional steps:
If you suspect that a child or teenager has accessed the 8bet platform, please contact our support team immediately so that appropriate action can be taken without delay.
