1. What Responsible Gaming Actually Means

Responsible gaming isn't just about following rules — it's a mindset. At scored.bid, betting responsibly means treating the game as entertainment, not a source of income. When you play mindfully within your limits, every moment becomes enjoyable.

Many people in Bangladesh start betting for fun, but boundaries can gradually slip. scored takes this seriously and actively works to keep every player safe.

Responsible Gaming Principles

  • Betting is for entertainment only — it's not a reliable source of income
  • Only wager an amount you can afford to lose
  • Don't chase your losses with more betting
  • Avoid betting when you're drunk or emotionally distressed
  • Keep betting separate from time with family, friends, and work

scored verifies age at every registration and provides responsible gaming tools free of charge.

2. How to Tell If There's a Problem

Gaming addiction creeps up gradually. It's often hard to notice when a habit starts becoming a problem. Pay attention to your own behaviour — if you spot any of the signs below, act on them right away.

Warning Signs

Financial Warning Signs
Betting beyond your budget, borrowing money to bet, or dipping into bills or savings.

Behavioral Signs
Chasing losses, being unable to stop, or playing in secret.

Social Signs
Spending less time with family or friends, and difficulty focusing at work.

Psychological Signs
Feeling anxious or irritable when not playing, or losing yourself completely while betting.

Check Yourself

Ask yourself the questions below. If you answer "Yes" to more than 3, consider seeking help:

  • Did you spend more than your budget on betting last month?
  • Have you been betting more to chase your losses?
  • Have you been hiding your betting from family?
  • Have you argued with family or friends over your betting?
  • Have you tried to stop betting but couldn't?
  • Have you taken on debt to fund your betting?

If any of the signs above feel familiar, don't wait — reach out to us at support@scored.bid. We're here to help, not to judge.

3. Complete Guide to Setting Limits

Scored.bid lets you set various types of limits on your account. You can manage these anytime from your account settings.

Limit Type Options Time to Take Effect
Deposit Limits Daily / Weekly / Monthly Instant
Betting Limits Maximum amount per bet Instant
Session Time Limit 30 minutes / 1 hour / 2 hours / Custom Instant
Loss Limit Daily / Weekly / Monthly Instant
Cooling-Off Period 24 Hours / 7 Days / 30 Days Instant

Rules for Increasing Limits

Decreasing a limit takes effect immediately. However, increasing a limit comes with a 7-day waiting period — this helps prevent impulsive decisions.

Setting limits isn't a sign of weakness — it's smart gaming. scored fully supports you in taking this step.

4. Self-Exclusion Process

If you feel you need to step away from betting entirely, self-exclusion is the most effective option. scored respects that decision and will support you through every step of the process.

Steps to Self-Exclude

  1. Go to the "Responsible Gaming" section in your account settings
  2. Select the "Self-Exclusion" option
  3. Choose a period: 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or 5 years
  4. Confirm — this will take effect immediately
  5. A confirmation message will be sent to your registered email

If you attempt to open a new account during a self-exclusion period, it will be automatically blocked. scored actively enforces this.

After Self-Exclusion

Your account won't be reactivated automatically once the period ends. You'll need to apply consciously, and scored will verify that you're ready.

5. Minor Protection

Scored strictly prohibits betting by anyone under 18. Age is verified at registration, and a national ID is required as part of the KYC process.

Advice for Parents

  • Use parental control software on your device
  • Keep your scored account password out of reach of children
  • Have open conversations with children about the risks of betting
  • Never leave your device unattended while logged into your account

If you suspect a minor is using your account, contact support@scored.bid immediately.

6. The Role of Family

Family support is one of the strongest forces against betting addiction. If you think someone close to you is struggling with betting, here are some steps you can take.

What Family Members Can Do

  • Speak with empathy, without judgment
  • Review your finances together
  • Encourage them to seek professional help
  • Reach out to scored support — we're here to help
  • Take care of your mental health too

Family members can also reach out to scored support directly as a third party to ask for assistance.

7. Financial Management & Budgeting

Financial awareness is the most important part of responsible gaming. scored wants to help you stick to a healthy budget.

Rules for Setting a Betting Budget

  • Set aside a maximum of 2–5% of your monthly income as your entertainment budget
  • Never bet beyond this budget
  • Never bet with money set aside for bills, food, or family expenses
  • Track your betting spend every month

Level of Financial Risk

Safe Zone (up to 2% of income) Low Risk
Caution Zone (2–5% of income) Moderate Risk
Danger Zone (5%+ of income) High Risk

8. Mental Health & Betting

Stress, frustration, or loneliness can make betting feel more appealing. scored understands this is a natural human tendency — which is why we go beyond rules and offer genuine support.

How to Avoid Betting Under Stress

  • Check your state of mind before you play
  • Avoid betting when you're angry, upset, or feeling down
  • Find other ways to have fun — sports, spending time with family
  • Keep up regular habits — sleep, eating, and exercise

Winning feels great, but a loss doesn't have to ruin your day. scored wants you to stay positive no matter what.

9. Where to Get Help

Admitting you have a problem takes courage. Asking for help takes even more. scored and our partner organisations are always here for you.
