Safe and Healthy Entertainment

l89 bd's Commitment to Responsible Gambling

Betting and casino games are a form of entertainment — l89 bd is always mindful that they should not become a source of financial pressure or mental distress. On this page you can learn how to manage your spending, recognise warning signs and seek help when needed.

For ages 21+ — responsible gambling is mandatory

Keep yourself safe and set your limits

Our Approach

Gambling Should Be Enjoyable, Not a Burden

l89 bd believes that betting or playing games stays enjoyable only when it is planned and within limits. Many people start for entertainment but gradually lose control — spending more and more time and money. Acknowledging this problem and acting on it in time is very important.

We want every user to play with awareness. That is why our Terms and Conditions clearly state that any player may impose limits on their account at any time. The age rule is strictly enforced — no one under 21 may open an account or play on l89 bd.

Sometimes we cannot see for ourselves that we are crossing a line. Family members or people close to us are often the first to notice that something is wrong. So if someone in your family expresses concern, take it seriously and reach out to l89 bd for support.

Under our Privacy Policy, your personal information related to responsible gambling is fully protected. Any request to set limits or self-exclude is kept confidential.

Protect Yourself

Tools for Control

l89 bd helps you stay in full control of your play. Each of the features below can be activated by contacting us via 24/7 live chat or email.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum deposit amount per day, week or month. Once a limit is set it takes effect immediately; increasing a limit takes some time to come into effect.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum duration for a single gaming session. Once the set time is up, you will be logged out automatically.

Reality Check

After you have been playing for a while, you will receive a notification showing how long you have been playing. This is a reminder to take a break.

Cool-Down Break

If you feel you need some rest, pause your account for 24 hours up to 30 days. During this time no deposits or bets can be placed.

Self-Exclusion

Apply for self-exclusion for a longer break. Once this feature is active, the account cannot be reopened before the set period ends.

Permanent Account Closure

If you decide that you need to stop playing entirely, apply for permanent account closure. Send your request by email or live chat.

21+

l89 bd strictly enforces the 21+ age rule. Age is verified at registration and before the first withdrawal. If a minor uses your device, please log out of your account or set a password lock. A note for parents — keep parental controls active on your devices so that children cannot access gambling or betting sites.

Stay Alert

Recognise the Warning Signs

If any of the signs below apply to you, it is time to take a break from gambling and seek help.

  • You keep placing larger bets to try to recover lost money — chasing losses.
  • You hide how much you play from family or friends, or lie about it.
  • You borrow money to bet, or use money set aside for everyday expenses.
  • You try to stop playing but keep failing.
  • You neglect work, studies or family responsibilities to spend long hours gaming.
  • When you cannot play, you feel anxious, irritable or in a bad mood.
  • You need to bet much larger amounts than before in the hope of winning.
Healthy Habits

Principles of Responsible Gambling

Follow a few simple rules for healthy, controlled play:

Set a fixed budget before you play and never go beyond it.

Treat betting as a cost of entertainment, not as a way to earn money.

Avoid playing when you are emotional or feeling low.

Take regular breaks and spend time with family and friends.

Never bet while under the influence of alcohol or any other substance.
