Responsible Gaming at 96M: Keeping Entertainment Safe

At 96M, we believe that online gaming should remain a controlled form of personal entertainment, never a financial solution or a way to recover losses. This Responsible Gaming framework outlines essential practices, age limits, and self-management tools to keep your sessions safe and predictable.

1. Core Principles of Safe Play

To keep entertainment enjoyable and stress-free, always integrate these fundamental boundaries into your routine:

• Strict 18+ Enforcement: Platform use is strictly restricted to adults aged 18 and older (or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction). Identity verification is mandatory before payouts.
• Separate Entertainment Wallets: Always isolate your play money from household bills, rent, and salary funds. Treat your gaming budget like the cost of a movie ticket or a night out.
• Fixed Time Limits: Set physical alarms or session timers before opening any game. When your scheduled time expires, close the app immediately—regardless of whether you are winning or losing.

2. Recognizing Unhealthy Habits

Gaming can occasionally blur boundaries if personal discipline slips. Be honest with yourself and watch out for these warning signs:

• Playing longer or spending more money than you originally planned.
• Borrowing money, selling items, or dipping into bill funds to continue playing.
• Chasing previous losses by increasing your stakes in a desperate attempt to "get even."
• Feeling anxious, stressed, or irritable when trying to take a break from the platform.

3. Tools and Self-Exclusion

If you ever feel that your gaming habits are becoming difficult to control, practical platform tools are available to help you step back:

• Deposit Caps: Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit ceilings to control your spending velocity.
• Temporary Cool-Offs: Request a temporary suspension of your account for 24 hours up to several weeks to reset your routine.
• Permanent Self-Exclusion: Contact 24/7 live support to permanently close your account if entertainment has turned into an ongoing source of stress.
