At six8s, responsible gambling is not a policy document — it is a core value built directly into our platform. We believe that every player deserves control over their play, transparent limits and real support when it counts.
Gambling is a popular form of entertainment enjoyed by millions of adults around the world — and on six8s, from PSL match betting to live casino tables, our goal is to make sure it stays that way for every player on our platform.
The problem starts when gambling stops being fun and starts feeling like an obligation, a way to win back losses, or a response to stress. That shift — from entertainment to harmful habit — is what responsible gambling tools are designed to prevent.
six8s has built its full suite of responsible gambling controls directly into the account dashboard. You do not need to contact support or send an email to activate deposit limits, take a break or self-exclude. These tools are available to every registered player, at any time, in a few clicks.
Gambling involves real financial risk. You can lose the money you deposit. Never gamble with funds you need for daily expenses, rent, food or family obligations. six8s does not guarantee any winnings. Please only bet what you can genuinely afford to lose.
six8s enforces strict age verification for every account. You must be 18 or older — or the higher minimum age required by the operator or its license jurisdiction — to register or play. Being of legal gambling age does not automatically mean gambling is lawful in your location. Pakistan's Prevention of Gambling Act 1977 places restrictions on gambling activities. Please understand your local legal position before you play.
Every tool below is available directly from your six8s account dashboard — no support ticket needed, no waiting period for activation.
Set a daily, weekly or monthly cap on the total amount you can deposit into your six8s account. Once a limit is active, it cannot be increased immediately — there is a cooling-off period before any increase takes effect, giving you time to reconsider. Decreasing a limit takes effect immediately.
Define the maximum amount you are prepared to lose within a set time period. When your net losses hit the cap you have chosen, your account will automatically prevent further wagering until the period resets. This is one of the most effective tools for keeping gambling costs predictable.
Set a maximum duration for each gambling session. When your time is up, the platform will alert you and — if you choose — automatically log you out. This tool is particularly useful if you find sessions running longer than you intended, which is a common early warning sign of problematic play.
Enable automatic on-screen reminders at regular intervals — every 30 minutes, every hour, or at the frequency you choose. Each reminder shows your current session duration and net financial position, giving you a clear moment to pause, reflect and decide whether to continue.
Need a short cooling-off period? Activate a temporary account pause for 24 hours, 72 hours, one week or one month. During a break, you cannot log in, deposit or place bets. The break period cannot be cancelled early. Promotional communications are also paused during a Take a Break period.
Self-exclusion is a longer-term commitment — available for a minimum period of six months, extending up to five years or permanently. Once self-exclusion is active, your account is closed, you cannot register a new account, and all marketing communications are stopped. We treat self-exclusion requests with the highest priority and act on them immediately.
Every responsible gambling control on six8s is accessible without needing to contact the support team first. Here is the process:
Sign in to your six8s account using your registered email address and password. Ensure your KYC verification is complete for full access to all tools.
Find the Responsible Gambling or Player Safety section in your Account Settings dashboard. All available tools are listed there with clear descriptions.
Enter your chosen limit value or select your exclusion period. Deposit and loss limits activate immediately. Limit increases have a mandatory cooling-off period before taking effect.
You will receive a confirmation on-screen and by email. Keep this for your records. For self-exclusion, your account will be closed immediately upon confirmation.
If you have difficulty activating any tool or want to discuss your options, contact our support team at [email protected]. Urdu-language support is available on request.
If you answer "yes" to any of the questions below, consider activating one of our player safety tools or seeking additional support.
Do you find yourself gambling with money that was meant for essential expenses like food, rent or bills?
Have you tried to stop or cut down on gambling but found it difficult?
Do you find yourself gambling for longer than you intended, or spending more than you planned?
Have you borrowed money or sold items to fund gambling?
Does gambling cause arguments, stress or tension with family members or close friends?
Do you feel the urge to chase your losses — betting more to try to win back what you have lost?
Have you felt guilty, anxious or distressed about the amount of time or money you spend gambling?
Answering "yes" to two or more of these questions may indicate that gambling is becoming a problem. Please use the self-exclusion or take-a-break tools in your account immediately, and consider reaching out to a qualified counselling service or speaking with a trusted person in your life. Our support team is available 24/7.
No compromise on age — and active safeguards for every player who may be at risk.
Every account on six8s is subject to KYC age verification before any withdrawal can be processed. Where we have reasonable grounds to suspect that a user may be under the minimum age, we will restrict the account immediately pending verification. Accounts confirmed to belong to underage users will be closed without exception and any balance forfeited in line with our Terms & Conditions.
If you share a device with younger family members, we strongly recommend activating the parental control software available on your operating system or browser. Keep your six8s login credentials private and never allow anyone under the age of 18 access to your account or device while logged in. Families in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad and across Pakistan can use widely available free parental control tools to block gambling-related websites.
six8s monitors player activity for patterns associated with at-risk gambling behaviour — including rapid deposit sequences, persistent loss-chasing and sudden large increases in wager sizes. Where such patterns are identified, our team may proactively reach out to offer responsible gambling tools or suggest a voluntary break. We do this because we care, not simply because we are required to.
If you are a family member or carer concerned about someone else's gambling behaviour, please contact our support team. We can discuss the options available — including account reviews and third-party exclusion requests — while respecting applicable privacy obligations. You do not have to manage this alone.
Pakistan's Prevention of Gambling Act 1977 places legal restrictions on gambling activities within Pakistan. six8s does not claim to be licensed, authorised or regulated by the Government of Pakistan, the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA), the State Bank of Pakistan or any provincial authority.
Whether or not a specific online gambling activity is lawful in your location is a question of local law that six8s cannot answer for you. We strongly encourage all Pakistani users — whether in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar or elsewhere — to understand their local legal position before registering on any gambling platform. Nothing on this page constitutes legal advice.
Beyond legality, we also recognise that for some users, cultural or personal values may make gambling inappropriate regardless of legal status. We respect every individual's right to make their own informed decision, and our responsible gambling tools are designed to support that decision-making — including the decision not to play at all.
The information on this page is provided for general awareness only. It does not constitute legal advice. If you have specific questions about gambling law in Pakistan or your province, please consult a qualified legal professional.
If gambling is causing you or someone you care about distress, please reach out. You do not have to wait until things feel out of control.
Our player support team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If you are struggling with your gambling or want to activate any responsible gambling tool, contact us at: [email protected] Urdu-language support is available on request.
Talking to a trusted family member, friend or community leader can be a powerful first step. Across Pakistan, community support networks — whether through family, mosques or local community centres — can offer a non-judgmental space to discuss concerns about gambling or financial stress.
Qualified mental health professionals and addiction counsellors operate in major Pakistani cities including Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad. If gambling is creating financial hardship, anxiety or relationship difficulties, speaking to a professional counsellor is a constructive and confidential option. Your GP or local hospital can provide referrals.
Recognising that gambling is becoming a problem is a sign of strength, not weakness. Whether you are a player in Lahore placing daily cricket bets or someone in Karachi who has spent more than intended at the live casino — reaching out for help is always the right move. six8s is here to support you, not just to host your bets.
Players who have activated responsible gambling tools are excluded from bonus marketing communications.
No delay, no cooling-off period on the player's side — self-exclusion is activated the moment you confirm it.
No hidden wagering conditions — every bonus on six8s has its full terms clearly linked and written in plain English.
KYC is mandatory before any withdrawal. Underage accounts are closed immediately and balances forfeited.
Automated systems and human review flag unusual activity — and our team proactively reaches out to offer support.
English-language support around the clock, with Urdu-language assistance available on request for all Pakistani players.
Use our player safety tools, read your rights, and always play within your means. Our team is here to help — any time, any day.
