Our Commitment

Built Around Player Safety

okvl's responsible gaming framework is not a checkbox — it is a core part of how the platform is designed and operated. Every tool described below is available to all registered players at no cost, at any time.

Self-Exclusion Programme

okvl offers a voluntary self-exclusion tool that allows you to temporarily or permanently close your account if you feel your gambling is no longer recreational. Once activated, self-exclusion cannot be reversed for the elected period — this is intentional, to give you genuine protection when you need it most.

Deposit Limit Controls

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits on your okvl account to cap how much you can fund your balance within any given period. Limits take effect immediately when reduced and cannot be increased without a mandatory 7-day cooling-off period — keeping impulsive decisions from undermining your budget.

Session Time-Out

Use okvl's time-out feature to temporarily pause your account for a set period — from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. During a time-out, you will not be able to log in, place bets, or access any gaming content. Promotional communications are also suspended for the duration of your time-out.

Loss Limit Settings

In addition to deposit controls, okvl allows you to set a maximum loss threshold per day, week, or month. If your net losses reach the threshold you have set, further betting is restricted for the remainder of that period. This gives you a clear financial safety net independent of how much you deposit.

Marketing Opt-Out

If you feel that promotional offers, bonus notifications, or seasonal campaign messages are influencing your gambling decisions, you can opt out of all marketing communications at any time from your account settings or by emailing the okvl support team. Your access to the platform is unaffected by this choice.

Reality Check Reminders

Enable session reminders that notify you at regular intervals — every 30, 60, or 90 minutes — showing how long you have been playing and your net result for the session. These prompts are designed to keep you grounded and help you make conscious, informed decisions about whether to continue playing.

Player Tools

How to Use Your Safety Tools

All responsible gaming controls are accessible directly from your okvl account dashboard. Here is a step-by-step guide to activating each tool.

Self-Exclusion
Temporary or Permanent Account Closure

Self-exclusion is the strongest responsible gaming tool available on the okvl platform. When you activate self-exclusion, your account is immediately closed to all betting and gaming activity for the period you select. Available exclusion periods are:

  • 6 months — standard cooling-off period
  • 1 year — extended break for serious concerns
  • 5 years — long-term exclusion
  • Permanent — indefinite closure with no re-opening option

During any self-exclusion period, okvl will not send you any promotional emails, SMS notifications, or bonus offers. Any account balance at the time of exclusion will be refunded to your registered bKash, Nagad, or Rocket wallet within 3–5 business days.

Important: Self-exclusion periods cannot be shortened once activated. If you attempt to register a new account during a self-exclusion period, okvl reserves the right to close that account and withhold any associated funds pending investigation.
Deposit & Loss Limits
Daily · Weekly · Monthly Controls

Managing how much you spend is the single most effective way to keep gambling within your entertainment budget. okvl's limit controls work as follows:

  • Deposit Limits: Cap the total amount you can add to your okvl balance per day, week, or month. Suggested starting points for Bangladeshi players: ৳500/day, ৳2,000/week, or ৳6,000/month.
  • Loss Limits: Cap the maximum net loss you will accept per day, week, or month regardless of deposit activity.
  • Increasing Limits: Any increase to an existing limit is subject to a mandatory 7-day waiting period before it takes effect, giving you time to reconsider.
  • Decreasing Limits: Reductions take effect immediately, with no waiting period.
How to Set Limits: Log in to your okvl account → navigate to Account Settings → select Responsible Gaming → choose Deposit Limits or Loss Limits and enter your preferred threshold.
Time-Out & Cool-Off
Short-Term Account Pause

A time-out is a shorter-term break from the okvl platform, designed for situations where you feel you need a pause but are not yet ready for formal self-exclusion. Time-out periods available on okvl include:

  • 24 hours — immediate overnight break
  • 72 hours — a weekend away from the platform
  • 1 week — a structured one-week reset
  • 2 weeks — an extended break period
  • 6 weeks — the maximum time-out before self-exclusion is recommended

During a time-out, your account is frozen but not permanently closed. Your balance is preserved and will be accessible once the time-out period concludes. All marketing communications are paused for the duration.

Getting Help
Support is Available 24/7

If you are concerned about your own gambling or the gambling behaviour of someone close to you, okvl's support team is available around the clock, every day of the year.

  • Live Chat: Available directly from the okvl platform, staffed by English and Bengali-speaking agents on Bangladesh Standard Time (BST, UTC+6).
  • Email: [email protected] — use the subject line "Responsible Gaming Help" for priority handling.
  • Response Time: All responsible gaming requests are treated as high priority. Email responses within 4 hours during business hours; live chat immediately.
Confidential: All responsible gaming conversations are handled by senior support staff and kept strictly confidential. Your request will never affect your account standing or be visible to other players.
Know the Signs

Warning Signals of Problem Gambling

Gambling is a form of entertainment. Like all forms of entertainment, it can become harmful when it stops being a choice and starts feeling like a compulsion. The following are recognised warning signals that gambling may be becoming a problem. If you identify with three or more of these, we strongly encourage you to use okvl's self-exclusion tool or contact our support team immediately.

You Are Not Alone: Problem gambling affects an estimated 1–3% of regular online gamblers across South Asia. Recognising the signs early is the most important step toward regaining control.
01
Chasing Losses — Placing additional bets specifically to recover money lost in a previous session, rather than for entertainment value.
02
Exceeding Your Budget — Regularly spending more on gambling than you planned before starting a session, or using money set aside for rent, food, or bills.
03
Gambling to Escape — Using the okvl platform or any gambling activity as a way to cope with stress, anxiety, depression, or difficult life events rather than for entertainment.
04
Preoccupation with Gambling — Thinking about gambling frequently throughout the day, planning future sessions excessively, or feeling restless and irritable when unable to gamble.
05
Concealing Your Gambling — Hiding your gambling activity, losses, or account from family members, friends, or colleagues in Dhaka, Chittagong, or elsewhere.
06
Borrowing to Gamble — Taking loans, using credit, or borrowing money from family or friends specifically to fund gambling activity.
07
Failed Attempts to Stop — Having tried to cut down or stop gambling on multiple occasions without success, or finding that previous self-set limits were not adhered to.

Player Pledge

The okvl Safe Play Promise

okvl's responsible gaming commitment is built on five core principles that govern how the platform is designed, operated, and improved for every Bangladeshi player.

Age Verification First: No player may deposit, play, or withdraw until their age has been verified as 21 or above via government-issued photo ID. This verification is mandatory and non-negotiable on the okvl platform.
Tools That Work: Every responsible gaming tool on okvl is technically enforced — self-exclusions are applied at the system level and cannot be bypassed by simply re-registering with a different email address.
No Predatory Promotions: okvl will not send bonus offers or promotional incentives to any player who is currently on a time-out, under a self-exclusion, or who has opted out of marketing communications.
Trained Support Staff: All okvl customer support agents receive specific training in responsible gaming, problem gambling awareness, and how to handle sensitive player disclosures with professionalism and empathy.
Continuous Improvement: okvl reviews its responsible gaming policies, tools, and player data at least every six months to identify areas where player protections can be strengthened or made more accessible.
