At Kripya Responsible Gaming — Keep it fun, keep it in control

Int What is responsible gaming and why does it matter?

Responsible gaming means treating gaming as a healthy part of your entertainment — not as a way to earn money or relieve stress. At Kripya, we believe every member's gaming experience should be enjoyable, safe, and fully in their control.

Online gaming is growing rapidly in Bangladesh, and responsible gaming has never been more important. People can easily spend more time or money than they intended, which can affect family life and finances. Kripya takes this seriously and is committed to keeping its members informed and in control.

The core goal of our responsible gaming program is to give you the tools and information you need to make informed decisions. Gaming is entertainment — ensuring it never becomes a burden is our fundamental commitment.

1 Recognizing the Signs of Problem Gaming

It's not always easy to notice when gaming shifts from fun to addiction. If you're experiencing any of the signs below, it may be time to take stock. Knowing yourself is the first step toward responsible gaming.

• Continuing to play in an attempt to win back money you've lost.
• You cut back on family time or work to spend more time gaming.
• You can't stop playing — you keep thinking "just one more round".
• You hide your gaming from the people close to you.
• You are spending more than your budget on gaming.
• You feel anxious or restless when you can't play.
• You are playing with borrowed money or dipping into your savings.

2 Assess Yourself

Ask yourself the questions below. Answering honestly will give you a clear picture of where your gaming habits stand. This self-assessment is an important part of responsible gaming.

3 Kripya's Safety Tools

Kripya provides every member with a set of effective tools to help them stay in control of their gaming. These responsible gaming tools are completely free and available to use at any time.

4 Tips for Building Healthy Gaming Habits

Responsible gaming doesn't mean you have to stop playing. A few simple habits are all it takes to keep gaming fun and fully in your control. The tips below are based on feedback from experienced Kripya members.

• Set your budget first: Decide how much you'll spend on gaming each month and never exceed that limit under any circumstances.
• Set a time limit: Set a daily limit on how many hours you play. Use an alarm or Kripya's Reality Check feature to help you stick to it.
• Check your state of mind: Avoid gaming when you're tired, stressed, or under the influence of alcohol — your judgment is impaired in these states.
• Stop Chasing Your Losses: "Chasing losses" is the most dangerous habit. If you're on a losing streak, stop for the day.
• There's more to life than gaming: Make sure you have enough time for family, friends, hobbies, and work. Gaming should never be the sole focus of your life.
• Keep wins in perspective: After a big win, resist the urge to keep betting in the heat of the moment — stop and withdraw your winnings.
• Take regular breaks: Avoid playing for long stretches without a break — get up, take a short walk, or rest for a bit.

5 Protection for Minors

Kripya strictly does not allow anyone under 18 to play. This is not just a legal obligation — it is our moral responsibility. Gaming addiction can cause serious harm to the mental development of minors.

If you have children or teenagers at home who use your devices, take the following steps:

• Use a strong password for your Kripya account and never share it with anyone.
• Install parental control software on your device.
• Always log out after you finish playing.
• Make your children aware of the risks of online gaming.
• Don't save your password in the browser, so children cannot easily access your account.
