Betting is meant to be enjoyable, not a source of stress. sona bet believes every player has the right to play safely. That's why we provide tools and support to keep you in control at all times.
If you feel you're losing control of your betting, contact our responsible gaming team right now. No judgement — just support.
Responsible gaming means betting in a way that keeps you fully in control at all times. Being mindful of your spending, your time, and your mental state — these three things are at the heart of playing responsibly.
At sona bet, we believe betting is a form of entertainment. Just as you'd set a budget for going to the cinema or eating out, you should set a budget and time limit for betting too. Only bet what you can afford to lose — that's the simplest rule of responsible gaming at sona bet.
"When betting goes beyond entertainment and starts causing anxiety or financial hardship, it's no longer a game. It's a problem — and problems have solutions."
In Bangladesh, many people enjoy betting on cricket matches with family and friends just for fun. sona bet respects that. But when someone repeatedly places large bets chasing a win, keeps betting more to recover losses, or starts hiding their betting from family — that's when it's time to take notice.
Sona bet's Responsible Gaming team is with you every step of the way — no judgement, no shame, just support.
Decide in advance how much you're willing to spend each week or month — and stick to that limit no matter what, whether you're winning or losing.
Decide in advance how long you'll play each day. Extended unbroken sessions impair your judgement and decision-making.
Avoid betting when you're angry, frustrated, or under the influence of alcohol. Always make decisions with a clear head.
Chasing losses by placing more bets is a dangerous habit. Accept the loss and come back another day.
If betting becomes something you feel you have to hide, that's a warning sign. Talk to a family member or someone you trust.
Betting is not a source of income — it's entertainment. Winnings are a bonus; losses are the cost of the fun.
These tools are built for you — to keep you in control and keep you well. All of them are completely free.
Set your own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap. Once you reach your limit, no further deposits will be accepted.
Set a maximum stake per bet. Protect yourself from the temptation to place oversized wagers.
Take a temporary break of 24 hours to 30 days to clear your head. You won't be able to log in during this period.
Choose self-exclusion for a longer break. Close your account completely for anywhere between 6 months and 5 years.
At set intervals, a pop-up will remind you how long you've been playing and how much has been wagered.
View a detailed history of all your betting activity. See for yourself exactly where your money is going.
How to use these tools: Log in to the sona bet app or website → Account Settings → navigate to the "Responsible Gaming" section. All tools are available there in one place. If you need assistance, reach out via Live Chat.
Betting addiction doesn't happen overnight. It develops gradually, with changes that can be hard to notice at first. Stay alert if any of the following signs appear.
Keep in mind:
These signs don't mean you are weak or a bad person. Betting addiction is a health condition, not a character flaw. Seeking help is a sign of strength.
Placing more bets to try to win back what you've lost is known as "chasing losses" — and it's one of the most dangerous habits a bettor can develop.
Borrowing money from family, friends, or a bank to fund your betting is a serious red flag.
If you're skipping time with family or neglecting work to bet, your priorities have shifted in a dangerous direction.
When you feel the need to hide how much you're betting from family or friends, that's a sign something isn't right.
Feeling irritable, losing sleep, or experiencing discomfort when you can't bet — these are psychological signs of addiction.
If you need to wager more money than before to feel the same level of excitement, that's a sign your tolerance is increasing.
Answer honestly about your own betting habits. This information is for your eyes only.
If betting feels like it's getting out of control, don't panic. Follow the steps below.
