Our commitment

Pk10's commitment to responsible gaming

Pk10 is more than a gaming platform — it's a commitment to building a trusted and safe environment for players in Bangladesh. We believe that every player's physical and mental wellbeing matters far more than any win or loss. That's why our platform includes tools and measures designed to help players stay informed and in control.

We see gaming as a form of entertainment — not a source of income or a way to cope with daily stress. Our support team is always on hand if any player feels they need assistance. Responsible gaming isn't an obligation; it's simply part of a healthy lifestyle.

Warning

Recognize the signs of risky gaming behavior

Certain signs call for immediate attention when they appear

Psychological & behavioural warning signs

  • Chasing losses repeatedly and being unable to stop
  • Lying about gaming or hiding it from family and friends
  • Feeling restless, irritable, or uneasy when not betting
  • Neglecting important responsibilities — family, work, or studies — because of gaming
  • Telling yourself "just one more round" repeatedly but being unable to actually stop
  • Gaming thoughts interfering with sleep or everyday life

Warning Signs of Financial Trouble

  • Using money set aside for essential expenses or savings to fund bets
  • Borrowing money from friends or family to gamble and being unable to pay it back
  • Spending more than your planned budget and being caught off guard by it
  • Habitually reinvesting all winnings immediately instead of setting any aside
  • Finding that your total monthly gaming spend takes up a significant portion of your income
  • Repeatedly risking large sums of money in pursuit of a big win
Keep in mind:

If you recognise any one or more of these signs in yourself, it's not a sign of weakness — it's a sign of self-awareness. Reach out to the pk10 support team or speak with a professional counsellor. Asking for help takes courage.

Tips for setting time and budget limits

Smart planning keeps gaming enjoyable, not stressful

Set a weekly budget

Before you start playing, set a fixed weekly budget and stick to it. This budget should cover entertainment costs only — it should never come from household funds or money set aside for emergencies. Track your spending at the end of each session to build a clear picture of your gaming habits. Once the budget runs out, stop playing for the rest of the week — no exceptions. This habit will help you stay financially stable in the long run.

Stick to your daily time limits

Decide in advance how much time you'll spend gaming each day and set an alarm or timer. Most experts recommend keeping recreational gaming to no more than one to two hours per day. When the time is up, step away — even if the session feels like it's going well. Avoid gaming right before bed, as it can significantly impact your sleep quality. Take regular breaks and schedule gaming-free days every now and then.

Avoid the chasing losses trap

Chasing losses by placing more bets after a losing streak is a highly risky pattern. Remember, every game is independent — past results have no bearing on what comes next. Trying to recover today's losses tomorrow or next week only leads to deeper losses. On days when you feel emotionally driven in your decisions, stop gaming. Making clear-headed choices is the foundation of responsible gaming.

Self-control

Benefits of self-control

Pk10 gives you full control over your own gaming experience

Deposit Limit

Your first step toward financial control

At pk10, you can set a maximum deposit limit on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased before the set period ends. This feature protects you from overspending without realizing it. Lowering your limit can be done at any time and takes effect right away. It's one of the most effective financial protection tools available.

Breaks & cooling-off periods

Take a break and clear your head

Sometimes all it takes is a few days away to clear your head. At pk10, you can activate a cooling-off period for 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or longer. During this time, no bets or deposits can be made on your account, though your funds remain fully secure. No changes can be made until the period ends, which protects you from acting on impulse. This feature is completely free and can be activated at any time.

Self-Exclusion

Strong protection for long-term breaks

If a short break doesn't feel like enough, self-exclusion is a more powerful option. Activating it will fully suspend your account for a set period — anywhere from six months up to five years. During this time, login, wagering, and deposits are all disabled, and the account cannot be reactivated until the exclusion period ends. Any funds in your account remain safe and can be withdrawn once the period is over. You can also set this up through our support team.

Review gaming history

Understand your own habits

At pk10, your full gaming history, deposit and withdrawal records, and detailed betting information are available to view at any time. Review your data regularly — it helps you understand when, how much, and under what circumstances you tend to play more. This transparency is essential for making responsible decisions. If you notice a pattern that concerns you, set limits right away or speak with our support team. Knowledge is your best protection.

Child Protection

Our strict policy on protecting minors

Pk10 strictly ensures that no one under the age of 18 can register or participate on the platform. Age verification is mandatory at registration, and we confirm identity documents when required. Any account suspected of belonging to a minor is investigated immediately and suspended if necessary.

A message to family members: keep children's access to your devices restricted and never share your login credentials. Avoid gaming in front of young children so they don't come to see it as normal everyday entertainment. Together, we can create a safer gaming environment for everyone.

Advice for parents

  • Keep parental controls enabled on your device
  • Keep your gaming account password secure
  • Have open conversations with your children about the risks of online gaming
  • If in doubt, contact pk10 Support right away

Life balance

Keep life in balance

Gaming is a small part of life — not your whole life

Gaming can be a great source of entertainment — but only when it stays in balance with the rest of your life. Family, friends, work, health, and personal goals always come first. If you notice that gaming is affecting your relationships, your work, or your peace of mind, it's time to take action.

Regular physical activity, sufficient sleep, and quality time with loved ones are the pillars of good mental health. Hobbies and activities outside of gaming bring variety to your life and reduce over-reliance on gaming. In Bangladesh, spending time in person with friends and family is invaluable for your wellbeing.

Family & Friends

Make spending time with loved ones your top priority — those relationships are what truly matter in life.

Physical activity

Regular walks, sports, or exercise keep the mind refreshed and help reduce the pull toward excessive gaming.

Learning & Creativity

Learn something new, pick up a book, or put time into creative pursuits — these keep your mind engaged in a positive way.

Get enough rest

7–8 hours of sleep each night is the foundation of good mental and physical health — never let gaming take its place.

Seek professional support

Gaming addiction is a recognized mental health condition, and seeking professional help is a completely normal and courageous step. Mental health specialists and counselors in Bangladesh can provide effective support in overcoming addiction. Sometimes, simply talking to a trusted friend or family member can also make a world of difference.

  • Talk to someone you trust — don't carry it alone
  • Seek professional mental health support when needed — it's a sign of strength
  • The pk10 support team will help you find the right resources

Responsible Gaming — Frequently Asked Questions

Whatever's on your mind, you'll find the answer here

Log in to your pk10 account, go to Account Settings, and look for the "Responsible Gaming" option. There you can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits. Enter your preferred amount and confirm — the limit takes effect immediately. If you run into any issues, our support team is always ready to help. Limits can be lowered at any time, but increasing them requires waiting out the specified period.

No — activating self-exclusion does not affect your funds in any way. During the exclusion period, only new bets and deposits are paused; your balance remains completely untouched. Once the exclusion period ends, you can withdraw your funds as normal. If you need to make an urgent withdrawal before the period is up, contact our support team directly. We treat the financial security of every player as our top priority.

Start by talking to them with empathy and respect — express your concern without blaming or criticising. Let them know that seeking help is not a weakness but an act of courage. Encourage them to see a mental health professional and offer to go with them if needed. You can also reach out to the pk10 support team — we're here to assist family members and friends too. Remember, the right action at the right time can truly change someone's life.

A cooling-off period is a short-term break — typically ranging from 24 hours to 30 days — for when you want to step away from gaming temporarily. Self-exclusion, on the other hand, is a longer-term measure that fully deactivates your account, usually for six months to several years. Once a cooling-off period ends, your account is reactivated automatically; however, after a self-exclusion period, you must consciously submit a reactivation request. You can choose whichever option suits your needs, and our support team is available to help you decide.

Yes, gaming addiction is a real and recognised mental health condition acknowledged by the World Health Organization (WHO). When gaming begins to harm other important areas of life — such as work, family, and health — it may be a sign of addiction. The brain's reward system responds to the feeling of winning, which can gradually lead to addictive behaviour. That said, with awareness, limit-setting, and the right support, this issue can be effectively addressed. pk10 is here to support you every step of the way.
Step-by-step guide

Steps to getting help

If you feel like your gaming is getting out of control — follow these steps

1

Be honest with yourself

The first step is acknowledging the problem. If you feel gaming is getting out of control, be honest with yourself and take it seriously rather than brushing it off. Acknowledgment is where change begins.

2

Set your limits

Log in to your pk10 account and immediately set deposit limits, time limits, or a cooling-off period. These tools give you instant control and protect you from impulsive, excessive gaming in the heat of the moment. The sooner you set them up, the better.

3

Tell someone you trust

Let a family member or trusted friend know what you're going through. Rather than facing the problem alone, lean on the people close to you. Having the support of someone you care about makes the path to change much easier and helps keep you accountable.
