Our Commitment

Gambling Should Always Be Entertainment

At ctk99, we believe that online gambling — whether that's placing a bet on a Bangladesh Premier League match, spinning the reels on a Pragmatic Play slot, or joining a live casino table — is a form of entertainment. Like all entertainment, it works best when it is enjoyed within clear personal boundaries, with a budget you are comfortable with and time limits that suit your lifestyle.

The vast majority of ctk99 players across Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, Barisal, Rangpur, and Mymensingh enjoy their gaming experience without any issues. However, ctk99 recognises that for a small number of people, gambling can move from a pleasurable pastime to something that causes financial strain, emotional difficulty, or harm to family relationships. We take that risk seriously.

This page explains how ctk99 approaches responsible gaming, what protective tools are available to every registered player, how to recognise early warning signs that gambling may be becoming a problem, and where to find help — both within the ctk99 platform and through external support organisations.

ctk99 is a platform strictly for adults aged 21 and above. We enforce this age requirement at the point of registration and through our KYC (Know Your Customer) verification process. If you suspect that a person under the age of 21 is accessing ctk99 — including via your account — please contact our support team immediately at [email protected].

What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming refers to a set of behaviours, attitudes, and platform tools designed to keep gambling safe, affordable, and within healthy limits. For a player, responsible gaming means treating every deposit as entertainment spend — money you are willing to lose — rather than an investment or a way to solve financial problems. It means setting a session budget before you open a game, and sticking to it. It means taking regular breaks, not chasing losses, and being honest with yourself about how gambling makes you feel.

For ctk99, responsible gaming means building those safeguards directly into the platform so that they are easy to access, effective, and confidential. It also means training our support team to recognise and respond sensitively to players who may be experiencing gambling-related difficulties.

The Golden Rules of Safe Gambling

Before you play, keep these principles in mind. They are the foundation of a healthy gaming habit at ctk99:

  • Only gamble with money you can genuinely afford to lose — never use rent, food, or bill money.
  • Set a deposit limit before your session, not mid-session when emotions are running high.
  • Never chase losses. A losing streak does not mean a winning run is "due" — each game outcome is independent.
  • Take regular breaks. Step away from the screen every 30–45 minutes to reset your perspective.
  • Do not gamble when you are upset, stressed, tired, or under the influence of alcohol.
  • Keep gambling a small part of your overall leisure time — not the main event.
  • If gambling stops being fun and starts feeling like an obligation, it is time to pause and seek support.
21 +

Adults Only — 21 and Above

ctk99 strictly enforces a minimum age of 21 for all registered players. Age verification is required at the point of registration and may be requested again before any withdrawal is processed. Players found to be under 21 will have their accounts suspended immediately and any funds returned in accordance with our Terms & Conditions.

⚠️ Never share your ctk99 login credentials with minors or with anyone else in your household. You are responsible for all activity on your account. If you share a device with family members, enable device-level parental controls to prevent unauthorised access.

💡 Quick tip: Use the ctk99 deposit limit tool as soon as you register — setting a weekly or monthly cap before your first deposit is the single most effective responsible gaming step you can take.


Platform Tools

Your Responsible Gaming Toolkit

Every ctk99 account comes with a full suite of responsible gaming tools, available at no cost and activatable instantly from your account settings or via our support team.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you can deposit into your ctk99 account. Once set, the limit takes effect immediately and cannot be raised without a mandatory cooling-off period, giving you time to reflect before increasing your spend.

Loss Limits

Define the maximum amount you are willing to lose within a set time period. When your loss limit is reached, ctk99 will automatically pause your gaming session for the remainder of that period — protecting your bankroll and your peace of mind.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum continuous session duration. When the timer runs out, ctk99 will display a session-end notice and log you out automatically. This tool is especially useful for late-night or extended gaming sessions where time can slip by unnoticed.

Time-Out Feature

Need a short break? Activate a time-out for 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out, you cannot log in or make any deposits. Your account balance is preserved and you can return after the time-out period ends.

Self-Exclusion

For a longer break, self-exclusion allows you to close your ctk99 account for a minimum of 6 months or permanently. During self-exclusion, your account is deactivated, all marketing communications are stopped, and you cannot re-register. Contact [email protected] to activate this option.

Marketing Opt-Out

You can opt out of all promotional communications — including bonus offers, tournament invitations, and deposit incentives — at any time. Simply contact our support team or update your preferences in your account settings. This helps reduce triggers if you are trying to cut back.


Know the Signs

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. Recognising the early warning signs — in yourself or someone close to you — is the first and most important step toward getting help.

If you identify with several of the signs listed here, we strongly encourage you to use ctk99's self-exclusion or time-out tools immediately, and to reach out to our support team or an independent counselling service. There is no shame in asking for help — it is the responsible thing to do.

ctk99 support agents are trained to handle these conversations with full confidentiality and without judgement. You can contact us at any time at [email protected].

1
Gambling with Money You Cannot Afford to Lose

Using rent money, household budget funds, loan proceeds, or credit to fund gambling activity is a serious warning sign. Gambling should only ever be funded from discretionary entertainment income.

2
Chasing Losses

Feeling compelled to keep playing after a losing session in order to "win back" what you have lost is one of the most common and dangerous gambling patterns. Losses should be accepted as the cost of entertainment, not problems to be solved.

3
Neglecting Responsibilities

Missing work, skipping meals, withdrawing from family and friends, or neglecting daily responsibilities because of time spent gambling suggests that gaming is taking an unhealthy priority in your life.

4
Feeling Anxious or Irritable When Not Playing

Experiencing restlessness, irritability, anxiety, or a persistent urge to return to gambling when you are not playing — or when you try to stop — can be signs of a psychological dependency developing.

5
Lying About Gambling Activity

Hiding the amount of time or money you spend gambling from family members, friends, or your financial partner is a common indicator that you already know your behaviour has moved beyond healthy limits.

6
Gambling to Escape Problems

Using gambling as a way to escape stress, relationship difficulties, financial worries, or emotional distress makes it much harder to stop — and can accelerate both financial losses and psychological harm.


Self-Assessment

Quick Self-Check

Review the statements below honestly. This is not a diagnostic tool — it is a personal reflection exercise to help you gauge your current relationship with gambling.

In the past 30 days, have you…

Tick any that apply to your recent gambling experience.

Spent more money gambling than you originally planned for that session?

Continued playing after reaching your self-imposed loss limit?

Borrowed money or sold assets to fund gambling?

Felt that you needed to gamble with increasing amounts to get the same level of excitement?

Made unsuccessful attempts to cut down, control, or stop gambling?

Gambled to relieve feelings of helplessness, guilt, anxiety, or depression?

Jeopardised or lost a significant relationship, job, or financial opportunity because of gambling?

If you ticked two or more of the above: We encourage you to take a break using ctk99's time-out or self-exclusion tools, and to speak confidentially with our support team at [email protected]. You can also reach out to an independent counselling service for professional guidance.

Step-by-Step

How to Activate Protective Tools

All responsible gaming tools at ctk99 can be activated instantly. Here is how to set each one up on your account.

Reducing or removing a limit always requires a mandatory review period to prevent impulsive decisions. Increasing a limit takes effect after 72 hours. Removing a self-exclusion requires written confirmation and a minimum 24-hour cooling-off period, during which the exclusion remains active.

All tool requests are handled confidentially by our support team. We will never pressure you to remove a limit or end an exclusion early.

Instant Effect Daily / Weekly / Monthly

Log in to your ctk99 account and navigate to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Deposit Limits. Enter your preferred cap amount in BDT and choose the time period (daily, weekly, or monthly). Click Save Limit — the restriction takes effect immediately. To raise your limit, a 72-hour waiting period applies after submitting the increase request.

Instant Effect Daily / Weekly / Monthly

Go to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Loss Limits. Enter the maximum BDT amount you are willing to lose in the chosen period. When this threshold is reached, your gaming session will be automatically paused for the remainder of that period. Contact [email protected] if you need assistance setting this up.

Instant Effect Per Session

Under Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Session Limits, choose a maximum session length (e.g., 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours). Once the session timer expires, ctk99 will display a notification and log you out automatically. A session summary showing your net result for that session is displayed at the point of logout.

24 hrs 3 Days 7 Days 30 Days

Go to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Time-Out and select your preferred duration. Your account will be deactivated for that period — you will not be able to log in or deposit. Your balance is preserved and accessible after the time-out period ends. Time-outs cannot be cancelled early once activated.

6 Months Minimum Permanent Option

Email [email protected] with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request — [Your Username]". Our team will process your request within 24 hours (Bangladesh Standard Time, UTC+6). All marketing communications are stopped immediately upon receipt of your request. Any available balance will be withdrawn to your registered payment method (bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay) before the account is closed.

Parental Controls & Under-Age Protection

ctk99 is a platform exclusively for adults aged 21 and above. We use age verification at registration and during the KYC process to confirm that every player meets this requirement. However, no online platform can substitute for responsible device management within the home environment.

If you share a computer, smartphone, or tablet with younger members of your household, we strongly recommend enabling the parental control or screen-time management features built into your device's operating system. Both Android and iOS include family safety tools that allow you to restrict access to specific websites or app categories. Windows and macOS also include built-in parental controls accessible via the system settings.

Additionally, ctk99 recommends that you do not save your login credentials in a shared browser profile, and that you log out fully from ctk99 after every session rather than relying on session timeouts. If you use bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay for deposits, ensure that your mobile wallet PIN is not known to any household members under 21.

Our Commitment to Fair and Transparent Gaming

Every game available on ctk99 — including slots from Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Microgaming, and other licensed studios, as well as live casino tables from Evolution Gaming and Ezugi — uses a certified Random Number Generator (RNG) to determine outcomes. RNG certification means that every spin, hand, and game result is statistically independent from the one before it. No betting system, pattern, or strategy can predict or influence the next outcome.

Understanding this is an important part of responsible gaming. Slot machines, roulette wheels, and virtual card games are designed as entertainment products with a mathematical house edge. Over a long enough period, the platform will always hold a small statistical advantage. This does not mean you cannot win — many ctk99 players enjoy significant wins — but it does mean that gambling should never be approached as a reliable income source or investment strategy.

Financial Wellbeing

If gambling has caused financial difficulties — including debt, missed bill payments, or borrowing — we encourage you to seek free financial counselling alongside any gambling support you access. Managing the financial side of recovery is just as important as addressing the behavioural patterns. ctk99's support team can also assist you in retrieving a transaction history for your account, which may be helpful when working with a financial counsellor to understand the extent of gambling spend over time. Contact [email protected] with the subject line " Transaction History Request" to receive a detailed statement.

ctk99 also strongly advises against using credit facilities — including credit cards, personal loans, or buy-now-pay-later services — to fund gambling activity. Deposits on ctk99 should only be made from funds you already hold in your bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay wallet, or directly from a bank account where the balance represents genuinely discretionary income.
