Our Safety Features

Besa8 has put multiple protections in place to keep every player safe

Setting a Spending Limit

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Once a limit is in place it cannot be easily raised, so your budget stays entirely in your hands.

Session Time Limit

Decide in advance how long you'll play each session. Once the time is up, the platform will automatically alert you and suggest taking a break.

Cooling-Off Period

If you need a break, you can temporarily suspend your account for anywhere between 24 hours and 6 weeks. During this time, logging in or placing bets will be completely disabled.

Self-Exclusion

To keep yourself away from the platform long-term, activate Self-Exclusion for anywhere from 6 months to 5 years. Your decision is kept safe and completely confidential.

Loss Limit

Set a limit on how much you can lose before betting stops automatically. This feature protects you from significant losses driven by impulsive decisions.

Help Center

If you notice signs of addiction or need help, contact our 24/7 support team. Expert counsellors are available at all times.

Caution: Gaming is for entertainment. Do not play to solve financial problems or when you are struggling with addiction. If you feel you have a problem, seek help immediately.

01What is responsible gaming?

Responsible gaming means treating gaming purely as entertainment — not as a solution to life's problems. besa8 believes every player has the right to play safely, mindfully, and on their own terms. Responsible gaming is not just about financial limits — it is about mental and social well-being too.

The core principles of responsible gaming on besa8 are: Play when you want, stop when you need to. This platform always wants you to play with a smile and stop with a smile.

Millions of people around the world enjoy online gaming every day without any issues — because they play smart. With the right information and the right tools, gaming can be a genuinely fun experience.

02Signs of Gaming Addiction

Gaming addiction usually develops gradually. Many people do not realise when entertainment has turned into addiction. Check yourself against the signs below.

Warning Signs — Take a break if you notice these:
  • Playing beyond your budget: Repeatedly spending more than your set limit.
  • Chasing losses: Chasing losses by placing bigger bets after a losing streak.
  • Impact on relationships: Gaming is cutting into the time you spend with family or friends.
  • Playing on borrowed money: Having to borrow money to fund your gaming.
  • Tendency to keep secrets: Hiding from your family how much you are playing.
  • Feeling restless when not playing: Unable to feel at peace without playing.
  • Loss of focus at work: Unable to focus on studies or work.
  • Sleep problems: Losing sleep from staying up late to play.
Keep in mind: If you notice one or more of the signs above, it is important to take a break right away. That is not weakness — it is the right decision.

03The Golden Rules of Safe Gaming

To enjoy gaming responsibly over the long term, follow a few simple guidelines. These are drawn from the experience of seasoned players in Bangladesh.

Entertainment Budget Only

At the start of each month, set a separate budget for gaming. Stick to it — not a single extra BDT beyond that.

Set a Time

Set a time limit for each day or session before you start playing. Use a timer.

Play When You're in a Good Headspace

Avoid gaming when you're angry, frustrated, or stressed. Poor mental states lead to poor decisions.

Think of winnings as a bonus

A win is a bonus. Be mentally prepared to lose — gaming is never a source of income.

Let Your Family Know

Don't hide your gaming habits from your family. Transparency is one of the best ways to prevent addiction.

No chasing losses

Never try to chase your losses by playing more — that is the single biggest mistake you can make.

05The Role of Family

Gaming addiction is not just one person's problem — it affects the whole family. When family members stay aware, problems are caught much earlier and solutions become much easier.

  • Watch for changes: Pay attention if a loved one shows sudden changes in behavior, financial difficulties, or increased secrecy.
  • Talk without judgment: Talk openly about addiction — with understanding and support, not criticism.
  • Get help from besa8 Support: Family members can also contact our support team directly.
  • Encourage alternative activities: Help them spend time on other hobbies or social activities.
  • Take care of yourself: Addiction affects the whole family, not just the individual. Seek professional counselling if you need support.

Besa8 strictly prohibits anyone under 18 from using the platform. We maintain multiple layers of verification to protect minors.

  • Age verification is mandatory at the time of registration.
  • If there's any doubt, KYC verification is carried out using a government-issued ID.
  • Parents can install parental control software on their child's device.
  • If you suspect a minor is using someone's account, notify our support team immediately.
