Responsible Gaming at spi9
Gaming is entertainment. This page explains how spi9 helps Bangladesh players stay in control, set limits, and get support when they need it.
Our Commitment to Safe Play
spi9 treats responsible gaming as a core part of how we operate, not an afterthought. We believe that every player deserves clear information, working tools, and direct support — without having to dig through menus to find them.
Gambling carries real financial risk. The games on spi9 — slots, fishing games, live casino — are designed for entertainment. They are not a way to earn income, solve debt, or recover money already lost. If gambling stops feeling like fun, that is the right moment to step back and use the tools described on this page.
Age Restriction Policy
You must be 18 years or older to register and play on spi9. This applies to all Bangladesh players regardless of the game type. We enforce this during registration and again at the KYC verification stage, which requires a government-issued ID such as a National ID Card (NID), passport, or driving licence.
Any account found to belong to a person under 18 will be closed immediately. Any winnings from that account will be voided and are not payable. This is non-negotiable.
Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling does not always look like it does in films. It often develops slowly. The list below covers common warning signs that spi9 encourages every player to review honestly, not just occasionally but regularly.
- Spending more money than you planned, or more than you can afford to lose
- Chasing losses — depositing again to try to win back what you lost
- Gambling to relieve stress, boredom, or difficult emotions
- Hiding gambling activity from family members or partners
- Skipping meals, work, or social events to keep playing
- Feeling anxious or irritable when you are not gambling
- Borrowing money specifically to fund gambling sessions
- Continuing to play even after deciding to stop
If two or more of these apply to you, please use the tools below or speak directly to our support team. There is no penalty for reaching out early.
Account Limit Tools
spi9 provides several account-level tools that any player can activate at any time through Live Chat. Limits take effect immediately on deposit limits and within 24 hours on other settings. Reductions take effect immediately; increases require a 7-day cooling-off period before they come into force.
| Tool | What It Does | How to Activate | Reversal Wait |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deposit Limit | Caps the total amount you can deposit per day, week, or month | Live Chat | 7 days to increase |
| Loss Limit | Stops further play once your net losses reach a set amount in a period | Live Chat | 7 days to increase |
| Session Time Limit | Logs you out automatically after a chosen number of minutes per session | Live Chat | Immediate to reduce |
| Cooling-Off Period | Temporarily suspends your account for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days | Live Chat | Must wait full period |
| Self-Exclusion | Closes your account for 6 months, 1 year, or permanently | Live Chat | See section below |
All limit requests made through Live Chat are logged with a timestamp. You will receive a confirmation message in the chat window once the limit is active. Keep that confirmation for your records.
How to Self-Exclude
Self-exclusion is the strongest tool spi9 offers. When active, it blocks you from logging in, depositing, and playing for the duration you choose. Any pending bonuses are cancelled and cannot be reinstated.
-
1
Open Live Chat
Start a conversation with the spi9 support team. Live Chat is available around the clock — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
-
2
Request Self-Exclusion
Tell the agent you want to self-exclude. Specify your preferred duration: 6 months, 1 year, or permanent. No reason is required.
-
3
Verify Your Identity
The agent will confirm your account using basic verification. This step prevents accidental exclusions triggered by someone else.
-
4
Exclusion Activated
Your account is closed within minutes. Any remaining balance is withdrawable after a standard identity check. Marketing messages from spi9 will also stop.
Third-Party Support Resources
spi9 is a gaming platform, not a counselling service. If you or someone you know needs professional help with gambling-related issues, the organisations below offer confidential support.
Gamblers Anonymous operates a global network and offers online meetings accessible from Bangladesh. Their programme is free and peer-led.
GamCare provides confidential advice, information, and support for anyone affected by problem gambling. Their resources are available in multiple languages and accessible online.
BeGambleAware offers self-assessment tools, a national helpline, and a directory of treatment providers. Their website includes practical guides for family members affected by a loved one's gambling.
Protecting Minors
In Bangladesh, shared smartphones and family devices are common. If your phone or tablet is used by children or teenagers in your household, take these practical steps to prevent accidental or intentional access to spi9.
- Use a unique, strong password for your spi9 account and do not save it in your browser on shared devices.
- Enable your device's screen lock with a PIN or biometric that minors do not know.
- Log out of the spi9 App completely after each session, not just close it.
- Use Android's Digital Wellbeing or any parental control app to block access to gambling-related apps and websites for other device users.
- If a minor has accessed your account, contact Live Chat immediately. The account will be reviewed and any transactions by minors will be reversed.

Questions About Responsible Gaming
Can I set a limit on how much I deposit each week?
Yes. Contact Live Chat and ask for a weekly deposit limit. Tell the agent the maximum amount you want to be able to deposit per week in ৳ BDT. The limit is applied immediately. To increase it later, there is a 7-day waiting period to prevent impulsive decisions during a losing streak.
What happens to my balance if I self-exclude?
Your remaining ৳ balance is preserved. After the self-exclusion is confirmed, you can submit a withdrawal request. The standard KYC identity check applies before funds are released. The minimum withdrawal amount is ৳1,200. Any active bonus balances are forfeited at the point of exclusion.
Can I still receive spi9 promotions during a cooling-off period?
No. During a cooling-off period or self-exclusion, spi9 will stop sending you promotional messages — bonus offers, weekly deals, and reload reminders. If you receive a marketing message after a cooling-off starts, report it through Live Chat so we can investigate and correct the issue.
My family member has a gambling problem. Can I report their account?
You can contact Live Chat to flag a concern about another account. We cannot discuss another person's account details with you due to privacy rules, but we can note the concern and conduct an internal welfare check. In serious cases, we may request identity verification from that account holder before allowing further deposits.
Is the ৳100 minimum deposit limit a responsible gaming tool?
The ৳100 minimum deposit is a platform setting, not a responsible gaming limit. For personal deposit control, set your own daily or weekly deposit limit through Live Chat — this is separate and can be set lower than the platform minimum if needed. The two work together: the platform minimum is the floor, your personal limit is the ceiling you set for yourself.
How long does KYC take before I can withdraw after self-exclusion ends?
If you have already completed KYC before self-excluding, withdrawals process within approximately 42 minutes after your exclusion period ends and you submit the request. If KYC was never completed, the review takes up to 6 hours after documents are submitted. Required documents are a National ID Card (NID), passport, or driving licence.
