Responsible Gaming Tools

Every Sona Bet player gets free access to these tools — no questions asked.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap directly from your account settings. Once your limit is reached, Sona Bet will automatically block further deposits until the period resets. This is one of the simplest and most effective ways to keep your spending under control.

Session Time Limits

It is easy to lose track of time when you are enjoying a game. Sona Bet lets you set a maximum session duration. When your time is up, you will receive a clear notification and the option to log out. Keeping sessions short keeps gaming fun and prevents fatigue-driven decisions.

Cool-Off Period

Need a short break? A cool-off period lets you pause your Sona Bet account for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time you cannot log in, place bets, or make deposits. It is a great option if you feel like you need a breather without committing to a full self-exclusion.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel that gaming is becoming a problem, self-exclusion lets you close your Sona Bet account for a minimum of 6 months or permanently. During self-exclusion, your account is fully locked and you will not receive any promotional communications. Contact our support team to activate this at any time.

Loss Limits

Set a maximum amount you are comfortable losing over a given period. Once your loss limit is reached, Sona Bet will prevent further wagering until the period resets. This tool is especially useful for players who want to enjoy the excitement of gaming without risking more than they can afford.

Reality Checks

Sona Bet can send you regular on-screen reminders showing how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered in the current session. These reality checks help you stay aware of your activity and make informed decisions about whether to continue playing or take a break.

1 Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At Sona Bet, responsible gaming is not just a legal checkbox — it is a genuine commitment that runs through everything we do. We believe that online gaming should be a source of entertainment and excitement, not stress or financial hardship. That is why we have built a comprehensive responsible gaming framework that gives every player in Bangladesh the tools and knowledge they need to stay in control.

We understand that for the vast majority of our players, gaming at Sona Bet is a fun hobby — something to enjoy after a long day, during a festival, or while watching a match. But we also know that for a small number of people, gaming can become problematic. Our responsible gaming programme is designed to support all players, whether they simply want to set a budget or need more serious help.

Every responsible gaming tool on Sona Bet is completely free to use. There are no fees, no waiting periods, and no penalties for using them. We actively encourage all players to explore these tools and use them as part of their regular gaming routine.

Our promise: Sona Bet will never make it difficult for you to use responsible gaming tools. If you want to set a limit, take a break, or close your account, we will make it happen quickly and without hassle.

2 What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means playing in a way that is safe, controlled, and enjoyable — where gaming remains a leisure activity rather than a financial strategy or an emotional escape. At Sona Bet, we define responsible gaming around three core principles:

  • Play for fun, not profit. Gaming outcomes are based on chance. Treat any winnings as a bonus, not an expectation. Never chase losses — the next bet is never guaranteed to win back what you have lost.
  • Play within your means. Only ever gamble with money you can genuinely afford to lose. Your gaming budget should come from your disposable income — never from savings, loans, or money set aside for essential expenses like rent, food, or bills.
  • Play with awareness. Know how long you have been playing, how much you have spent, and how you are feeling. If gaming starts to feel like an obligation or a way to cope with stress, that is a signal to take a step back.

Responsible gaming at Sona Bet is about empowering you to make informed choices. We provide the tools — you stay in the driver's seat.

3 Recognising Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually and is not always easy to spot in yourself. Here are some common warning signs that gaming may be becoming a problem:

  • Spending more money on gaming than you originally planned or can afford.
  • Chasing losses — continuing to play in an attempt to win back money you have lost.
  • Lying to family or friends about how much time or money you spend on gaming.
  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when you are not able to play.
  • Neglecting work, studies, family responsibilities, or social activities because of gaming.
  • Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund your gaming activity.
  • Using gaming as a way to escape from stress, depression, or personal problems.
  • Feeling unable to stop or cut back even when you want to.

If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please do not ignore them. Reach out to our support team or use the self-exclusion tool immediately. Help is available and there is no shame in asking for it.

4 Self-Assessment: Is Your Gaming Under Control?

Answer these questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to two or more, we strongly recommend using our responsible gaming tools or speaking to our support team.

1

Have you ever spent more money on gaming than you intended to in a single session?

2

Have you ever tried to win back money you lost by placing more bets?

3

Have you ever hidden your gaming activity or spending from family or friends?

4

Has gaming ever caused you to miss work, studies, or important family time?

5

Have you ever felt anxious, irritable, or low when you could not access gaming?

6

Have you ever borrowed money or used essential funds to pay for gaming?

7

Do you find yourself thinking about gaming frequently when you are not playing?

8

Have you ever felt that gaming is out of your control, even when you want to stop?

This self-assessment is not a clinical diagnosis. It is a simple tool to help you reflect on your gaming habits. If your answers concern you, please contact our support team at [email protected] — we are here to help, not to judge.

5 How to Activate Responsible Gaming Tools

All responsible gaming tools at Sona Bet are available directly from your account dashboard. Here is how to get started:

1
Log in to your Sona Bet account

Visit sona-bet.top/login and sign in with your username and password. If you do not have an account yet, register here.

2
Go to Account Settings

Click on your profile icon in the top right corner and select "Account Settings" from the dropdown menu.

3
Select "Responsible Gaming"

Find the Responsible Gaming section in your settings. Here you will see all available tools — deposit limits, session limits, loss limits, cool-off periods, and self-exclusion.

4
Choose and activate your preferred tool

Select the tool you want to use, enter your preferred settings, and confirm. Most limits take effect immediately. Increases to limits have a 24-hour cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decisions.

5
Contact support if you need help

If you cannot find a tool or need assistance activating self-exclusion, contact our support team at [email protected] or via live chat. We will handle your request promptly and confidentially.

Important: Decreasing a limit (e.g. lowering your deposit cap) takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a 24-hour waiting period — this is intentional, to protect you from making impulsive changes during a gaming session.

6 Protecting Minors

Sona Bet is strictly an 18+ platform. We take the protection of minors extremely seriously and have multiple safeguards in place to prevent underage access.

  • Age verification at registration: All new players must confirm they are 18 or older during sign-up. We conduct identity verification checks to confirm age before allowing real-money play.
  • Document verification: We may request a copy of a government-issued ID, such as a National ID card or passport, to verify your age and identity.
  • Parental controls: If you share a device with children, we strongly recommend using parental control software to block access to gaming websites. Keep your Sona Bet login credentials private and never share them with minors.
  • Reporting underage access: If you believe a minor has accessed Sona Bet, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. We will investigate and take immediate action.

Any account found to belong to a person under 18 will be immediately closed and all funds returned. Protecting young people is non-negotiable at Sona Bet.

7 Tips for Safe and Enjoyable Play

Here are some practical habits that will help you keep gaming fun and under control at Sona Bet:

  • Set a budget before you start. Decide how much you are comfortable spending before you open the app or website. Stick to that number regardless of whether you are winning or losing.
  • Never chase losses. If you have hit your budget for the day, stop. Chasing losses almost always leads to spending more than you planned and rarely results in winning it back.
  • Take regular breaks. Step away from the screen every 30–60 minutes. Grab a drink, stretch, or chat with someone. Fresh eyes make better decisions.
  • Do not play when you are upset or stressed. Emotional states can lead to impulsive decisions. Gaming should be something you do when you are relaxed and in a good headspace.
  • Keep gaming in perspective. Sona Bet is entertainment — like going to the cinema or eating out. Budget for it accordingly and enjoy it for what it is.
  • Balance gaming with other activities. Make sure gaming is just one of many things you enjoy. Maintain your social life, hobbies, and responsibilities alongside your time on Sona Bet.
  • Use the tools available to you. Deposit limits, session timers, and reality checks are there for a reason. Use them proactively, not just when things feel out of control.
