Both the possibility of winning and losing are presented equally on our platform. All the information players need to make informed decisions is always readily available.

Our responsible gaming policy is built in line with Bangladesh's applicable laws and international standards. Every new member is informed about responsible gaming at the point of registration.

Entertainment Is the Goal

Betting at poko game should be purely for entertainment and excitement — never as a primary income source. We want to remind every player that chasing losses is a risky pattern. Betting should bring you joy, not anxiety. Play within your means and enjoy every moment. Your peace of mind matters most to us.

How can you recognize the signs of risky behavior?

Problematic gaming behavior often develops gradually and can be hard to recognize early on. If you notice one or more of the signs below in yourself, it's time to take a break and consider seeking support.

  • Repeatedly betting to chase lost money
  • Hiding gaming habits from family or friends
  • Betting beyond your set budget
  • Feeling restless or irritable when not gaming
  • Neglecting work, studies, or family responsibilities
  • Betting with borrowed money or by dipping into savings
  • Feeling excessive stress or anxiety over gaming

Ask Yourself

Are you in control of your gaming, or is gaming in control of you? Keeping this simple question in mind can make it a lot easier to make the right call.

If things feel like they're getting out of hand, don't wait — contact our support team or seek professional mental health assistance. Acting early is always the smartest move.

How do you stick to your time and budget limits?

Planning is the foundation of a healthy gaming experience. Setting limits in advance keeps the fun intact and reduces the risk of financial or emotional harm.

Set weekly time limits

Decide in advance how long you'll spend gaming each day or week, and stick to it. Your phone's screen time tracker makes it easy to keep tabs on your gaming hours. When your set time is up, close the app immediately and wait for your next session. Prioritize time with family or friends, hobbies, and regular exercise over gaming. Remember, taking breaks actually helps you enjoy gaming more when you do play.

Plan Your Budget in Advance

Before you start betting, decide the maximum amount you're comfortable spending. This should come only from your entertainment budget — never use money set aside for essentials or savings. If you lose, treat it as the cost of entertainment and don't chase losses by betting more. poko game offers a deposit limit feature to help you stay within your budget. Track your spending monthly and check that your gaming expenses stay in line with your overall entertainment budget.

What self-control features are available on poko game?

Poko game provides a range of effective tools and features to help you stay in control of your gaming experience. Using these features is entirely your right, and we see it as a courageous step.

Deposit Limit Settings

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits. Once a limit is set, it cannot be easily increased — protecting you from overspending. You can activate this feature at any time from your account settings.

Breaks & Cooling-Off

If you feel like you need a break, you can pause your account for anywhere from 24 hours to several weeks. Logging in or placing bets will not be possible during this time. Once the break ends, your account reactivates automatically.

What do we do to protect minors?

Poko game strictly prohibits anyone under 18 from registering or placing bets. Age verification is mandatory at sign-up, and additional checks are carried out whenever there is any doubt. Our system automatically works to detect underage users, and any such account is closed immediately.

  • Enable adult content filters on your browser
  • Keep an eye on your child's online activity

How to Keep Your Life in Balance

Gaming is just a small part of life. The real key to happiness is staying attentive to your family, friends, health, and career.

Evaluate Your Family Relationships

Spend quality time with your family and never let gaming stand in for family responsibilities. Talk openly with your loved ones and keep them in the loop about your gaming habits. Their support will help you maintain healthy boundaries. Use the time away from gaming to be present with your family — it will only strengthen your relationships. Remember, family happiness is worth far more than any betting win.

Physical & Mental Health

Regular exercise, enough sleep, and a balanced diet help reduce stress and keep you healthy. When stress builds up, turn to meditation, a walk, or something creative instead of using gaming as an escape. Hobbies like reading, cooking, or gardening can give you a healthy break from gaming. Stay mindful of your mental wellbeing and seek expert advice when needed. A healthy body and mind help you make better decisions in every area of life.

Stay on Track with Your Career & Financial Goals

Your professional and financial goals should always come before gaming. Don't count on betting as a source of income — it's entertainment, not a paycheck. Treat gaming spend as a small part of your monthly entertainment budget. Build habits around saving and investing, and plan for your future. True financial independence and security should be your real goal.

Where can you turn for professional help?

Gaming addiction is a mental health issue, and seeking professional help for it takes courage — there is absolutely no shame in it. In Bangladesh, you can reach out to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), the Kaan Pete Roi helpline, or a local mental health specialist. The poko game support team is also ready to point you toward the right resources. Remember, acknowledging the problem is the first step toward solving it.

Responsible Gaming FAQs

Here you'll find answers to the questions we're asked most often.

After logging in to poko game, go to Account Settings and click on the "Responsible Gaming" section. There you'll find options to set daily, weekly, and monthly deposit limits. Limits take effect immediately once set. Lowering a limit is instant, but increasing one requires a waiting period — this is designed to protect you from impulsive decisions. Our support team is always on hand to help with any issues.

Any funds in your account remain completely safe once self-exclusion is activated. Betting and new deposits are not permitted during the exclusion period, but you may apply to withdraw your existing balance. Withdrawals are processed under the standard procedure. Your account cannot be reactivated before the exclusion period ends. Ensuring your financial safety is our responsibility.

Keep your profession, business, or job as your primary source of income.
