Important Warning

Betting is entertainment, not a livelihood. Always play within your means. If you feel betting is having a negative impact on your life, seek help now.

01What Is Responsible Gaming

Responsible gambling means enjoying betting as a controlled, fun form of entertainment – where you make informed decisions and never exceed your own limits. At knockout, we believe every player has the right to bet in a safe environment.

Online betting is growing fast in Bangladesh, but it comes with real risks. Many people bet more than they should, driven by emotion or chasing losses – and that is often where problems begin. knockout's responsible gaming program is designed to identify and prevent these issues before they escalate.

Responsible gaming rests on three core principles: Awareness – Knowing how much you are playing and how much you are spending; Control – Setting your own limits; and Help – Having the courage to seek help when you need it.

02knockout's Commitment to Responsible Gaming

Knockout is more than just a betting platform – we're committed to the wellbeing and happiness of our users. Responsible gaming is a core part of how we operate.

03Our Protection Tools

Knockout offers a range of protection tools that you can use on your own terms. You'll find them in your account settings.

Deposit Limit

Set a maximum daily, weekly, or monthly deposit amount. Once set, it takes effect immediately.

Loss Limit

Set the amount you are comfortable losing within a given period. Once the limit is reached, betting stops automatically.

Session Time Limit

Set a time limit for how long you want to play in one session. You'll receive a reminder when time is up, and you'll be logged out automatically.

Cooling-Off Break

Temporarily suspend your account for 1 day to 6 weeks. No bets can be placed during this period.

Reality Check

Periodic pop-up notifications will show you exactly how long you've been playing and how much you've spent.

Self-Exclusion

Request a self-exclusion to close your account long-term. You can suspend it for anywhere from 6 months to permanently.

04Recognizing Problem Signs

Betting addiction doesn't happen overnight – it builds gradually. Recognizing the signs early means you can take action before things get serious. Below, we've separated the warning signs from the healthy ones.

Warning Signs

Betting more to chase lost money

Lying to family or friends about your betting

Prioritizing betting over eating or sleeping

Betting with money meant for bills or debt repayment

Trying to stop betting but being unable to

Healthy Betting

Treating betting as entertainment, not a source of income

Setting a budget in advance and sticking to it

Accepting losses and not increasing bets

Balancing betting with family time and work

Spending time on hobbies and activities outside of betting

Is your betting under control?

Answer these simple questions to get a clear picture of how healthy your betting habits really are.

1. Did you exceed your set betting budget last month?
2. After a loss, do you bet again to try to win back your money?
3. Have family or friends ever expressed concern about your betting?
4. Does betting interfere with your ability to focus on daily responsibilities?

06How to Set Your Betting Limits

Setting a proper budget is the most important step toward responsible betting. knockout lets you set three types of limits.

Daily Limit Example: ৳500

A maximum cap on total deposits and bets placed within a single day.

Weekly Limit Example: ৳2,000

Keep your total spending over a seven-day period in check.

Monthly Limit Example: ৳5,000

Prevent yourself from going over your monthly budget.

Tip: Your betting budget should be a small part of your monthly entertainment spending – never money set aside for essential expenses.

07Self-Exclusion Process

Self-exclusion is when you decide to take a break from betting for a set period of time – or permanently. On Knockout, the process is simple and effective.

  • Short-Term Break (1–42 days): Go to your account settings and select the "Cooling-Off" option.
  • Medium-Term Exclusion (6 months – 1 year): Contact our support team and it will take effect within 24 hours.
  • Permanent Exclusion: Email support@knockout.bio and your account will be permanently closed.

During your self-exclusion, we will not send you any promotional emails or bonus offers. That's our commitment.

If self-exclusion is active, you'll need to wait a minimum of 7 days and complete identity verification before your account can be reopened.

08For Family & Loved Ones

If you think a family member or friend may be betting excessively, you can help. Overcoming a betting addiction alone is tough – having family support makes a world of difference.

  • Talk to them calmly and without judgment.
  • Encourage them to acknowledge the problem.
  • You can contact knockout Support to file a complaint or request exclusion on their behalf.
  • Research professional counselling services and offer to go together.

Remember, betting addiction is a mental health issue – blame and anger won't solve it, but empathy and support will.
