Gaming at 98 Games is meant to be entertaining — a good way to spend some time, not a source of stress or financial pressure. This page explains the tools available to keep it that way, the warning signs to watch for, and how to get support when you need it.
Our Philosophy
At 98 Games, responsible gaming is not a checkbox item or a page buried in the legal section. It is a fundamental part of how the platform is designed and operated. Every player on 98 Games — from someone playing Teen Patti for Rs 100 for the first time, to a Diamond VIP betting larger amounts — deserves the same access to tools that keep gaming enjoyable and within bounds.
The reality is that for most people, gaming is exactly what it is supposed to be: a fun pastime. You play, you might win, you might lose, and you move on with your day. But we also know that for some people, gaming can shift from entertainment to a habit that causes problems. When that happens, 98 Games wants to be part of the solution, not the cause.
This page covers the tools built into your 98 Games account, practical guidelines for keeping play healthy, the signs that gaming may have become a problem, and what to do if you — or someone you care about — needs support. None of it is preachy. It is just honest, practical information from a platform that genuinely cares about its players.
One key principle: Gaming at 98 Games should only ever be money you can afford to lose — budgeted entertainment money, like what you would spend on a dinner out or a cricket match ticket. If you are dipping into rent, bills, or savings, the amount is too high.
Your Control Tools
All of these are available to every player, at every tier, at no cost. No waiting periods, no approvals required — except where noted.
To access any of these tools, log into your 98 Games account, go to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming, or contact our 24/7 support team.
Healthy Habits
Most people who play at 98 Games do so without any issues. They set a budget, play within it, enjoy the games, and move on. But keeping it that way takes a degree of awareness and a few straightforward habits. These are the ones that consistently make the difference between gaming staying fun and gaming becoming a problem.
The most important habit is the budget. Before you deposit into your 98 Games account, decide exactly how much you are comfortable losing — and treat that as the cost of entertainment, not an investment. If you lose it, the session is over. If you win, great — but winnings are not guaranteed income and should not be treated as such.
The second habit is knowing when to stop. Set a time limit before you start — not during the session, when you are already engaged. The session timers at 98 Games make this easy. Once your timer is up, that is the session done. Walk away, even if you are on a winning streak. The games will be there tomorrow.
Never chase losses. If you have had a bad session and your first instinct is to deposit more and try to win it back, stop. This is the single most common way recreational gaming turns into a problem. Log out, take a break, and come back another day with your regular budget.

Warning Signs
These signs do not mean someone is a "bad person" — they mean gaming has shifted from entertainment to something that needs attention. Recognising them early makes a real difference.
If you recognise several of these in yourself — or if someone close to you has mentioned any of them — it is worth taking the self-check below, and considering reaching out to the 98 Games support team. You can also request immediate self-exclusion by emailing support@98games.app at any time. There is no judgement involved and the process is straightforward.

Tick the statements that apply to you over the past four weeks. Your responses are not sent anywhere — this is just for you.
Protecting Young People
The 98 Games platform is for adults only. We verify age during the registration process and require identity confirmation before significant withdrawals. If we identify an account belonging to someone under 18, it is closed immediately and all funds are forfeited.
If you are a parent or guardian and are concerned that a young person in your household may be accessing 98 Games or any other online gaming platform, there are practical steps you can take. Most mobile devices — including Android phones and iPhones — have parental control settings that allow you to restrict access to certain websites and apps. You can enable these through the device settings or via your mobile carrier's parental controls.
If you believe a minor has registered on 98 Games, contact us immediately at support@98games.app. We will investigate and take action promptly. We take underage access extremely seriously and cooperate fully with any relevant authority.
Getting Help
Asking for help is not a weakness — it is the smart move. Here is what to do if you need support.
98 Games does not operate a gambling addiction helpline — we are a gaming platform, not a healthcare provider. If you or someone you know is experiencing serious distress related to gambling, please seek professional medical or psychological support through a qualified healthcare provider.
