Responsible Gaming Tools on par99

These tools are built into the par99 platform and accessible to every registered user. Use them to manage how you play — on your own terms.

PKR Deposit Limits

Set a maximum amount you are allowed to deposit into your par99 account per day, week or month — in Pakistani Rupees. Once a limit is active, it cannot be increased without a cooling-off period. Decreases take effect immediately. This is one of the most practical ways to keep your betting spend within a personal budget you have decided on in advance.

Session Time Reminders

Set a reminder notification to appear after a defined period of continuous play — whether you are in the middle of a PSL cricket bet or deep into a slot session. The reminder prompts you to take a break and reassess whether you want to continue. It does not force you to stop, but it brings your attention back to where it should be: your own decision.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a break from betting, you can temporarily suspend your par99 account for a period of your choosing — from one week up to six months. During a self-exclusion period, you cannot log in, deposit, place bets or receive promotional communications. Self-exclusion cannot be reversed before the chosen period ends. It is a firm commitment, and that is the point.

Bet & Spend History

Your full betting and transaction history is available in the par99 account section at any time. Review exactly what you have wagered, won, deposited and withdrawn — week by week, month by month. Seeing real numbers is one of the most effective ways to stay honest with yourself about your gambling patterns before they become a problem.

Promotional Opt-Out

You can opt out of receiving promotional notifications from par99 — including bonus offers, PSL season specials and deposit match alerts — through your account settings at any time. Reducing the frequency of promotional messages is a simple step that can meaningfully lower the impulse to place unplanned bets triggered by marketing communications.

24/7 Support Access

The par99 support team is available around the clock through in-app live chat. If you are concerned about your own gaming behaviour — or that of someone you know — you can speak to a support agent at any time. Support can assist you in setting up any of the tools on this page or in processing an account closure request.

par99's commitment: We want every user on our platform — whether they are betting on T20 cricket, playing slots or enjoying fish games — to have a positive experience that stays within their means and does not negatively affect their daily life.

What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means approaching betting and casino play as a form of paid entertainment — not as a financial strategy, a way to recover debt, or a source of regular income. When you buy a cinema ticket or attend a cricket match, you expect to spend money and enjoy the experience without expecting a financial return. Betting works the same way at its core.

par99 offers sports betting on cricket, PSL, T20 internationals and football, as well as slot games, live casino and fish shooting games. All of these are designed as entertainment products. The house has a built-in edge on every product — that is how the business model works, and it is important to understand that going in. The goal of responsible gaming is not to stop you from playing. It is to ensure that when you do play, you are doing so in a way that you have consciously chosen and that you can afford without stress.

Every par99 user in Pakistan has access to a suite of tools that support responsible play. These tools are free, immediate and do not require any special request — they are part of the standard account experience and can be configured at any time from the app or website account settings.

Warning Signs to Watch For

Problem gambling does not always announce itself clearly. It tends to develop gradually, and many people do not recognise it until it has already affected their finances, relationships or mental wellbeing. The following patterns are worth paying attention to — in yourself or in someone close to you.

  • Spending more money on betting than you originally planned, on a regular basis.
  • Chasing losses — placing more bets to try to recover money you have already lost.
  • Feeling anxious, irritable or restless when you are not able to place a bet.
  • Hiding betting activity from family members or lying about how much you have spent.
  • Borrowing money — from friends, family or through credit — to fund betting deposits.
  • Neglecting work, studies or family responsibilities because of time spent on betting or gaming.
  • Continuing to bet even after deciding you want to stop or cut down.
  • Thinking about betting constantly — planning your next deposit, calculating odds, replaying previous sessions.
If you recognise two or more of these patterns in your own behaviour, it is worth pausing and using par99's self-exclusion or deposit limit tools immediately. Taking action early makes a genuine difference.

Quick Self-Check: Honest Questions

Answer these questions honestly. If you find yourself saying "yes" to several of them, consider using par99's account tools or taking a break from the platform altogether.

  • Have I ever deposited more than I planned to in a single session because I was trying to win back what I lost?
  • Do I check my par99 balance or bet history more than a few times a day even when I am not actively playing?
  • Have I spent money on betting that was meant for household expenses, bills or savings — even once?
  • Have I borrowed money or delayed paying back a debt so that I could make a deposit on par99?
  • Do I feel I need to keep betting details secret from my family or close friends?
  • Have I told myself "one more bet" and then continued playing for significantly longer than intended?
  • Do I feel low, stressed or empty when I am not able to access the platform for a few days?
This self-check is not a clinical assessment — it is a straightforward reflection tool. The goal is simply to help you notice patterns before they become harder to manage.

Practical Tips for Keeping Gaming Enjoyable

These are habits that genuinely experienced bettors use to keep gaming in its proper place — as entertainment rather than an obligation or compulsion.

  • Set a weekly PKR budget before you open the app. Decide the maximum you are comfortable losing — because losing is a realistic outcome — and treat that figure as the cost of your entertainment for the week. Once it is gone, stop.
  • Never bet with money you cannot afford to lose. This includes salary that covers rent, groceries, school fees or any financial commitments your household depends on.
  • Do not chase losses. A losing streak feels temporary and a win feels overdue — that is how the human brain works around chance. In reality, past outcomes have no bearing on future results. Walking away after a loss is always a valid option.
  • Take regular breaks during a session. Enable par99's session time reminder and step away when it fires. A short break often provides enough perspective to decide whether continuing makes sense.
  • Avoid betting when you are emotionally distressed. Stress, sadness or frustration distorts decision-making and often leads to larger, more impulsive bets. The PSL will still be on tomorrow.
  • Keep track of your real spend. Use the transaction history in your par99 account to review what you have actually deposited and withdrawn over the past 30 days. Looking at real numbers — not estimates — gives you an accurate picture of your gaming spend.
  • Treat winnings as a bonus, not income. If you have a good day on cricket betting or hit a slot jackpot, enjoy it — but do not factor it into your regular budget or rely on it to recur.
  • Balance gaming with other leisure activities. Watching live cricket, spending time with family, playing outdoor sports and other hobbies should remain part of your life alongside — not instead of — any time you spend on par99.

How to Set Up Your Responsible Gaming Tools on par99

Using par99's responsible gaming tools takes only a couple of minutes. Here is how to get each one set up through the app or website:

1
Log in to your par99 account

Open the par99 app on your Android or iOS device, or visit par99.app in your browser, and log in with your username and password.

2
Navigate to Account Settings

Tap the profile icon at the top of the screen and select "Account Settings" from the menu. Responsible gaming controls are listed under the "Safe Play" or "Limits" section.

3
Choose your limit type

Select from deposit limits (daily, weekly or monthly in PKR), session time reminders or self-exclusion. Each option has a simple interface with clear input fields.

4
Confirm your setting

Enter the limit amount or time period you want and confirm. Deposit limit reductions and session reminders take effect immediately. Increases to limits require a 24-hour cooling-off period.

5
Self-exclusion: contact support if needed

For self-exclusion of six months or longer, or for permanent account closure, contact the par99 support team through in-app live chat. A support agent will process your request and confirm when the exclusion is active.

Remember: Decreasing a deposit limit or activating self-exclusion takes effect immediately. Requesting an increase to a limit will not take effect for at least 24 hours. This cooling-off period is intentional — it gives you time to reconsider.

Protecting Minors

par99 is strictly for adults aged 18 and above. We do not permit minors to register, deposit or play on the platform under any circumstances. Age verification is part of the registration process, and par99 reserves the right to request identity documents — including a valid CNIC — at any point to confirm a user's age before processing withdrawals or other account actions.

If you share a device with younger family members — a younger sibling, a child or a teenager in the household — we encourage you to take the following precautions:

  • Never save your par99 password on a shared device.
  • Log out of the par99 app or website completely after every session on a shared device.
  • Use your device's built-in parental controls or screen time restrictions to block access to betting apps and sites for young users.
  • Keep your account credentials — username, password and any two-factor authentication codes — completely private.

If you suspect that a minor has accessed a par99 account — whether your own or someone else's — contact support immediately. par99 will investigate and take appropriate action, including suspending the account if there is any credible concern about underage use. The integrity of the 18+ requirement is something par99 takes seriously across the entire platform.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. par99 allows you to set daily, weekly and monthly deposit limits denominated in Pakistani Rupees. Once set, a limit cannot be increased for at least 24 hours — but reductions take effect immediately. You can manage limits in the Account Settings section of the app or website.

Self-exclusion temporarily suspends your par99 account for a period you choose — from one week up to six months. During that period you cannot log in, deposit, bet or receive promotional messages. Self-exclusion cannot be reversed early. For longer periods or permanent closure, contact our support team via in-app live chat.

You can opt out of all marketing and promotional communications — including PSL betting offers, deposit bonuses and slot promotions — through Account Settings. The opt-out takes effect immediately and you can re-enable communications at any time. Opting out does not affect your ability to access any part of the platform.

No. par99 is for adults aged 18 and above who are participating voluntarily and with money they can afford to lose. Betting is not suitable for people who are in financial difficulty, have a history of problem gambling, or are in a vulnerable emotional state. If any of these apply to you, we encourage you not to register — or to use the self-exclusion tool if you are already a member.

Your complete transaction and betting history is available in the par99 app under My Account > History. You can filter by date range to review your total deposits, withdrawals and net betting spend over any period. Reviewing this regularly is one of the most practical responsible gaming habits you can develop.

If you are concerned about a family member or friend, the most important step is to have an open, non-judgmental conversation with them about what you have observed. You can also contact par99 support — while we cannot take action on another person's account without their consent, our support team can advise on options and resources available to affected families in Pakistan.
