88malay believes that online entertainment should be safe, controlled, and enjoyable – not a source of stress. This page outlines our commitment to responsible gaming and all the tools we provide to help you play within your own limits.
Our Control Tools
We provide a range of practical tools to keep you in control — not the other way around. All these features are accessible directly from your account settings.
Set a maximum amount you can deposit per day, week, or month. Once a limit is in place, the platform 88malay will automatically prevent deposits from exceeding that amount.
Set the maximum amount you are willing to lose within a given period. Once the limit is reached, your account will be automatically blocked from placing new bets until the limit period resets.
Set a maximum duration for each gaming session. 88malay will send an alert when the time limit is approaching and will automatically end the session once the limit is reached.
Need a short break from the platform? Activate a cool-off period of 24 hours, 48 hours, one week, or one month. During this time, you will not be able to log in or place any bets.
A more permanent self-exclusion option – a minimum of 6 months up to permanent. Your account will be fully blocked and 88malay will not send you any marketing communications.
Review your gaming history, deposits, and losses over a specific period through your personal activity report. This information helps you make an honest assessment of your own gaming habits.
88malay is an online entertainment platform offering Live Casino, slots, EPL and Malaysia Super League Sports Betting, poker, cricket, lottery, and a wide range of other games. We understand that for the majority of our members, playing at 88malay is an enjoyable leisure activity – much like watching a badminton match or going on a trip to an interesting destination.
However, we also recognise that for a small number of individuals, gambling can become problematic. That is why responsible gaming is more than just a slogan at 88malay – it is a core part of how we operate every day. We invest in technology, staff training, and processes that help identify and support members who may need assistance.
Our Core Principles: Gambling should be entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial problems. Set limits before you play, only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and stop when you are no longer enjoying it.
88malay adheres to the responsible gaming standards set by the industry. This means we train our support staff to recognise signs of problem gambling, we provide easy-to-use control tools, and we will never encourage members to play beyond their means. Our goal is a long-term, healthy relationship with every member — not short-term profit from someone's addiction.
Gambling problems rarely appear overnight. They typically develop gradually and can sometimes be difficult for the person involved to notice. Here are some early warning signs to watch for in yourself or someone you care about:
Thinking about gambling constantly – at work, during meals, or before bed
Needing to bet larger and larger amounts to feel the same level of excitement
Feeling restless, irritable, or uncomfortable when attempting to stop or cut back on gambling
Gambling to escape problems or negative feelings such as stress or sadness
Returning the next day to try to win back money that was lost
Hiding gambling activity from family or friends, or lying about the time or money spent
Borrowing money, selling belongings, or dipping into emergency savings to fund gambling
Gambling is starting to affect relationships with family, work performance, or overall health
Tried to stop multiple times but without success
Feeling guilty or regretful after playing but continuing anyway
If you recognise two or more of the signs above in yourself, that is a signal it may be time to speak with someone you trust or seek professional help. Recognising the problem is the most courageous first step you can take.
Answer the short questions below honestly to get a clearer picture of your gambling habits. This is not a clinical diagnosis — it is simply a self-reflection tool to help you think more mindfully about the way you play.
1. Have you ever gambled with money meant for essentials such as rent, bills, or food?
2. Have you ever gambled for longer or spent more than you originally planned?
3. Have family members or friends ever expressed concern about your gambling?
4. Have you ever felt the need to keep your gambling activity hidden from loved ones?
5. Have you ever tried to chase your losses by continuing to play?
If you answered "Yes" or "Sometimes" to three or more of the questions above, we encourage you to reach out to the support team 88malay or use the control tools available in your account. It is not a sign of weakness – it is a sign of maturity.
88malay provides a range of control tools that you can set yourself without needing to contact customer support. These tools are designed to put control firmly in your hands as a member:
Set a maximum deposit amount for a daily (24-hour), weekly (7-day), or monthly (30-day) period. Limits can be lowered immediately, but increases require a 7-day waiting period before they take effect.
Set a maximum net loss amount for a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Once the limit is reached, you cannot place new bets until the limit period refreshes.
Choose the maximum duration for each gaming session – 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, or set your own. The platform will send a warning 10 minutes before the limit is reached and will automatically end the session.
Take a short break from the platform for 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Your account will be temporarily suspended and all limits you have set will be retained when you return.
All these control tools are accessible via the Account Settings > Responsible Gaming after logging in. If you need help setting them up, reach out to our live chat team, available 24/7.
88malay takes the protection of minors extremely seriously. Our platform is strictly for users aged 18 and above, and we have rigorous procedures in place to enforce this:
If you share a device with children, make sure you log out of your account 88malay after every session and use a strong password that children cannot guess. Consider installing parental control software on devices shared with children.
Setting responsible gaming limits on 88malay is straightforward and takes less than two minutes. Follow these steps:
Sign in to your account 88malay using your username and password on the main page.
Click your profile icon in the top right corner and select "Account Settings" from the dropdown menu.
Navigate to the "Responsible Gaming" in the account settings menu.
Choose the type of limit you want to set — deposit, loss, session time, or cool-off period.
Enter the limit amount in MYR or the time period you wish to set, then select the limit duration (daily/weekly/monthly).
Click "Save Limit" and confirm via the OTP code sent to your registered phone number. The limit takes effect immediately.
Limit decreases take effect immediately. Limit increases require a 7-day waiting period before they apply — this is a safeguard to prevent impulsive decisions made during a gaming session.
Self-exclusion is a more serious and lasting option compared to a standard cool-off period. It is designed for individuals who feel they need a longer break or need to stop gambling altogether.
When you activate self-exclusion on 88malay, the following will take effect immediately:
Available self-exclusion periods:
How to Apply for Self-Exclusion: Contact our support team via live chat or email at support@88malay.net with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request". State your preferred period. Your request will be processed within 24 hours and you will receive a confirmation to your registered email address.
88malay fully respects and supports your decision to use self-exclusion. This is nothing to be ashamed of – it takes real courage and shows responsibility toward yourself and your family.
