Healthy & Safe Betting
Betting on Krikiy isn't just about winning — it's a way to make the excitement of cricket or football even more intense. But making sure that excitement never becomes a burden is exactly what our responsible gaming programme is here for.
Protection Programs
Krikiy has these measures in place to ensure every member has a healthy and safe betting experience.
Daily, weekly, or monthly deposit and betting limits can be set anytime from Account Settings. Decreases take effect immediately; increases require a 72-hour waiting period.
Your account can be temporarily frozen for anywhere between 1 day and 6 months. During this period, logging in or placing bets will not be possible, but your balance will remain safe.
If you need a long-term break, you can activate self-exclusion. Once enabled, your account cannot be reopened for a minimum of 6 months.
You can set a limit on how much you're allowed to lose within a given period. Once that limit is reached, betting is automatically stopped.
You can set a limit on how long you spend on the platform in one sitting. When the time is up, you'll receive a reminder or be automatically logged out.
If you're worried about your own betting — or someone else's in your family — you can speak to our support team confidentially in Bangla. No judgement, ever.

Check Yourself
Answer these questions honestly in your own mind. This isn't a test — it's simply a chance to check in with yourself.
If you answer "Yes" to any of the questions below, pause and consider using Krikiy's responsible gaming tools.
Do you place more bets to try to win back money you've lost?
Do you feel restless or anxious when you're not betting?
Have you ever used household money or emergency savings to fund your betting?
Have family or friends expressed concern about your betting?
Are you hiding how much you're betting from your family?
Have you tried to stop betting but couldn't?
If you answered "yes" to any of the questions above, reach out to support right away. Krikiy's team will help you in complete confidence. It's not weakness — it's the smart thing to do.
Responsible betting means treating betting as one form of entertainment among many — like going to the cinema or eating out. You decide in advance how much you're willing to spend, and you stop when you reach that limit. Betting works the same way. Krikiy wants every member to play with that mindset.
Cricket runs deep in Bangladesh. Many people bet to add a little extra excitement to that passion — and that's perfectly normal and enjoyable, as long as it stays within limits. But when betting stops being fun and starts causing stress, anxiety, or financial strain, that's a sign something needs to change.
You might wonder — why would a betting platform want its users to bet less? The answer is simple: Krikiy believes in long-term relationships. A happy, healthy bettor will stay on our platform for years. Someone with an addiction may place heavier bets for a while, but will eventually leave because of family, financial, or health pressures — and that's bad for everyone.
Krikiy is an internationally licensed platform. Ensuring responsible gaming is a condition of our licence — but we don't do it just to tick a box. We genuinely believe it's the right thing to do.
Sometimes a family member can see that a loved one's betting behaviour has gone beyond normal limits — yet that person either doesn't realise it or refuses to accept it. What should you do in this situation?
Start by expressing concern rather than making direct accusations. Saying "You're spending a lot of time betting — I'm a bit worried" is far more effective than "You're addicted to gambling." If the situation seems serious, contact Krikiy Support — we can also provide guidance to family members.
A few simple habits can keep betting on Krikiy enjoyable at all times. First, set a fixed monthly budget for betting — and once that budget is gone, stop betting until the month ends. Second, the most harmful habit is "revenge betting" — placing bigger bets after a loss to quickly recover what you've lost. If you lose, take a break.
Third, never bet when you're not in the right headspace — bets placed in anger, sadness, or a state of high emotion rarely lead to good decisions. Fourth, keep other sources of joy in your life — family, friends, hobbies. When betting becomes your only source of pleasure, that's when problems begin.
Sometimes willpower alone — or even the support of family — isn't enough. If you've tried repeatedly but still can't keep your betting within limits, seeking professional help is the smart move. Mental health awareness is growing in Bangladesh — reaching out isn't a sign of weakness; it's a sign that you value yourself.
While Krikiy's support team are not professional therapists, they can offer initial confidential guidance and, if needed, point you toward the right resources.
Healthy Betting Tips
At the start of each month, decide how much you're willing to spend on betting. Think of it as your "entertainment budget" — if you lose it, that's okay.
Losing today doesn't mean a big win is coming tomorrow — that's a myth. If you're on a losing streak, step away and come back with a clear head.
When you're up, quit while you're ahead. Many players chase even bigger wins after a good run — and end up losing everything.
Never place a bet when you're angry, upset, or under the influence. Your judgment is compromised, and poor decisions are far more likely.
Betting is a small part of life. Family, work, friends — they matter just as much.
Signs of addiction
You feel irritable or can't sleep when you're not betting.
You're borrowing money from family or friends to bet.
You're finding it hard to concentrate at work or study because betting is always on your mind.
You decide to stop betting every time, but start again after a few days.
Your betting amounts have been creeping up — you need to wager more than before to feel the same thrill.
You're cutting back on everyday household essentials to keep betting.
If you notice any of these signs in yourself, write to support@krikiy.best or reach out via live chat. We're here to help.
