89db believes gaming should be a healthy form of entertainment — never a source of stress or addiction. We are committed to helping every member play responsibly.
We don't just say it — we prove it through action. The mental and financial well-being of every member is our highest priority.
You can set your own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits. Once a limit is set, it cannot be increased for 24 hours — but it can be lowered immediately.
Decide in advance how long you'll play. When your time is up, 89db will automatically alert you and end the session. This is highly effective at preventing excessive play.
Feel like you need a break? Activate a cooling-off period for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time, you won't be able to log in or place bets.
If you feel you need a longer break from gaming, you can activate a full self-exclusion for 6 months or up to 5 years. Your account will be completely closed for the entire duration.
Once you reach a set loss amount, betting will automatically stop. This feature is highly effective at keeping financial losses in check.
Track your own gaming patterns — how long you've played, how much you've won or lost. Stay informed, stay in control.
Responsible Gaming means enjoying gaming as a healthy, controlled form of entertainment. It doesn't mean you have to stop playing — it means knowing your limits, sticking to a budget, and keeping a clear head.
Every day, thousands of people enjoy games, cricket betting, and more on 89db — and the vast majority play completely responsibly. They know that when today's budget is gone, today's session is over. Tomorrow is a fresh start.
The problem begins when someone bets again just to recover losses, uses money set aside for essential expenses on gaming, or hides their play from family. If any of these signs appear, it's important to seek help promptly.
89db takes this seriously and acts on it. Our platform offers a range of tools to help you stay in control — and whenever you feel you need support, our team is always here.
Keep in Mind: Gaming is meant for entertainment — not as an investment or a source of income. Always keep that in mind.
If you notice any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may be a cause for concern.
If you notice any of these signs: Contact the 89db support team without delay, or activate self-exclusion.
Before you start playing, decide — either mentally or by writing it down — the maximum amount you're willing to spend today. Once that budget is gone, the session ends. No exceptions.
Set a timer on your phone. Avoid playing for more than 1–2 hours at a stretch. Take breaks, do something else — and come back later if you still feel like it.
Chasing losses by thinking "I'll win it back this time" is the biggest mistake you can make. Recognising this trap is essential. If you're on a losing streak, stop — tomorrow is a new day.
Be open with your family about your gaming rather than hiding it. Being honest with the people you care about makes it far easier to keep yourself in check.
Make use of 89db's deposit limits, session limits, and cooling-off features. They're completely free and genuinely effective.

Questions our members ask most
We, 89db, make this commitment — the mental and financial well-being of every member matters more to us than our business success. We will never encourage any member to play beyond their means.
Playing within limits doesn't mean less fun — it actually means more, because you play free from stress and with a clear head.
