Responsible Gaming at ld44
Gambling is entertainment — and ld44 is committed to keeping it that way. Our responsible gaming framework gives every player in Bangladesh the tools, information, and support needed to stay in control. From deposit limits to self-exclusion, we put your wellbeing first.
Why It Matters
Our Commitment to Safer Play
At ld44, responsible gaming is not an afterthought — it is a core part of how we operate. We believe every player in Bangladesh deserves a safe, transparent, and enjoyable experience. The following principles guide everything we do in this area.
Player Wellbeing First
ld44 places the long-term wellbeing of every player above short-term revenue. Our systems are designed to detect early signs of harmful gambling behaviour and intervene proactively — before problems escalate.
Robust Access Controls
We provide a comprehensive set of player-controlled tools — deposit limits, loss limits, wager limits, session time reminders, cool-off periods, and full self-exclusion — so you can define the boundaries that work for your lifestyle.
Strict Age Verification
ld44 enforces a strict minimum age of 18 years for all registered players. Our KYC process includes age verification at sign-up and during withdrawal requests, ensuring the platform remains exclusively for adults.
Transparent Activity Data
Your account dashboard gives you clear visibility into your total deposits, withdrawals, net wins and losses, and session history. Understanding your real gambling footprint is the first step toward informed, responsible play.
Trained Support Team
Every member of the ld44 customer support team based in Bangladesh receives dedicated responsible gaming training. If you reach out about a gambling concern, you will be met with empathy, not judgment — and directed to appropriate resources immediately.
No Pressure Marketing
ld44 does not send unsolicited bonus offers to players who have set responsible gaming limits or who have opted out of marketing communications. We never use manipulative tactics to encourage players to chase losses or increase deposit amounts.
Minimum Age Policy
18+ Age Restriction
ld44 operates a strict 18+ policy across all products — casino games, live dealer tables, slots, and cricket betting markets. Access to any real-money feature of the platform is prohibited for individuals under the age of 18, regardless of whether they reside in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, or any other part of Bangladesh.
Age verification is performed as part of our Know Your Customer (KYC) process. During registration, you will be asked to confirm your date of birth. Before your first withdrawal is processed, you will be required to submit a valid government-issued identity document — such as a National ID card or passport — confirming you are 18 years of age or older.
If our compliance team has any reason to suspect that a player may be under the age of 18, the account will be suspended and all funds frozen pending identity verification. Any deposits made by an underage player will be returned to the original payment source (bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or bank account) with no winnings paid out.
⚠️ Underage Gambling Is Illegal: Gambling by persons under 18 years of age is strictly prohibited on ld44. If you are aware of a minor attempting to access gambling services, please report this immediately to [email protected].
Age Verification Process
-
Registration Age Declaration Confirm your date of birth when creating your ld44 account. All accounts are flagged if the declared age is below 18.
-
Document Submission Upload a clear photograph of your National ID card, passport, or driver's licence when prompted during the KYC verification flow.
-
Compliance Review Our compliance team reviews the submitted document and cross-checks the date of birth. This typically takes 1–2 business days (Bangladesh Standard Time).
-
Account Unlocked Once age is confirmed, full withdrawal functionality is unlocked. Accounts failing age verification are permanently closed.
Take a Break
Self-Exclusion Options
Self-exclusion is one of the most powerful responsible gaming tools available on ld44. It allows you to voluntarily block your own access to the platform for a defined period — or permanently — if you feel your gambling is getting out of control.
Self-exclusion can be initiated in two ways: directly through your account settings under the "Responsible Gaming" tab, or by contacting our support team at [email protected] with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request". Once a self-exclusion is confirmed, it takes effect within 24 hours and cannot be reversed until the chosen exclusion period has fully elapsed.
Available Self-Exclusion Periods
- 1 Month Cool-Off: A short pause to reassess your relationship with gambling. Your account is temporarily suspended and all marketing communications are halted immediately.
- 3 Month Break: A medium-term break. Suitable for players who want a more extended period of reflection. Cannot be shortened once confirmed.
- 6 Month Suspension: A longer-term suspension for players experiencing more persistent concerns. Support team outreach is offered during this period.
- 12 Month Exclusion: A full-year exclusion. At the end of the 12 months, account reactivation requires a formal written request and a 7-day cooling-off buffer before access is restored.
- Permanent Exclusion: A permanent, irrevocable closure of your ld44 account. All balances are returned to your registered payment method. This decision cannot be undone.
During any active self-exclusion period, ld44 will not send you any promotional emails, bonus offers, or SMS messages. If you attempt to create a new account during a self-exclusion period, it will be identified and closed by our compliance systems.
How to Request Self-Exclusion: Log in to your account → Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Self-Exclusion. Alternatively, email [email protected] with "Self-Exclusion Request" in the subject line. Our team will confirm the exclusion within 24 hours (Bangladesh Standard Time, UTC+6).
🚨 Self-Exclusion: Key Facts
- Takes effect within 24 hours of confirmation
- Cannot be shortened once activated
- All marketing communications stopped immediately
- New accounts created during exclusion are closed
- Remaining balance returned upon permanent exclusion
- Self-exclusion records retained for minimum 7 years

Budget Management
Deposit Limit Controls
Setting a deposit limit is one of the most effective ways to ensure you never spend more than you can afford. ld44 allows every registered player to set daily, weekly, and monthly deposit caps directly from their account settings — with no need to contact support.
Deposit limits apply across all payment methods: bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Dutch-Bangla Bank, City Bank, BRAC Bank, and card-based deposits. Once a limit is set, the system enforces it automatically — any deposit attempt that would exceed your cap is declined in real time, with a clear notification explaining why.
Reducing a limit takes effect immediately. If you set your daily limit from ৳10,000 down to ৳5,000, the lower cap is active from the moment you save the change. Increasing a limit is subject to a mandatory 7-day cooling-off period before the higher limit comes into force — this delay protects you from impulsive decisions made in the heat of the moment.
Tip: We recommend setting deposit limits at the start of each month that reflect your entertainment budget — not your total income. Treat gambling as a leisure expense in the same category as cinema tickets or a meal out, not as a potential income source.
📅 Daily Deposit Limit
Set the maximum amount you can deposit in a single 24-hour rolling period. Resets at midnight (Bangladesh Standard Time). Changes that reduce the limit apply instantly; increases require a 7-day wait.
📆 Weekly Deposit Limit
Cap your total deposits across any rolling 7-day window. Useful for players who prefer to budget by the week rather than day-by-day. The same instant-decrease / 7-day-increase rule applies.
🗓️ Monthly Deposit Limit
The broadest budget control — set a hard ceiling on how much you can deposit across any rolling 30-day period. Ideal for players who receive a monthly salary and want to allocate a fixed entertainment budget to ld44.
Session Management
Time-Out & Session Features
Sometimes the most responsible thing a player can do is simply step away for a while. ld44 provides a suite of session management tools designed to help you maintain healthy boundaries around your gambling time — without necessarily triggering a full self-exclusion.
Session Time Reminders
You can set an in-session notification that appears as a pop-up alert after a specified amount of continuous play time — for example, every 30, 60, or 90 minutes. The alert provides a clear summary of your session duration and net financial position (deposits minus withdrawals during the session), giving you a real-time snapshot to inform your decision whether to continue or stop.
Reality Check Notifications
Beyond time reminders, ld44's reality check feature delivers periodic notifications that include your cumulative wager total, total bets placed, and current account balance. These are designed to counteract the natural psychological tendency to lose track of time and money while immersed in gameplay.
Cool-Off Period (Short Time-Out)
A cool-off period allows you to temporarily suspend your account for a short window — 24 hours, 48 hours, or 7 days — without committing to a longer self-exclusion. During a cool-off, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. The cool-off takes effect within one hour of request and cannot be shortened once initiated. Unlike formal self-exclusion, a cool-off account can be reactivated by the player after the period expires without any additional review step.
Loss Limits
In addition to deposit controls, ld44 allows you to set daily, weekly, or monthly loss limits — a maximum net loss threshold per period. When your losses reach the set threshold, the platform will prevent further gameplay for the remainder of that period, regardless of your remaining account balance. Loss limits take immediate effect when set and are subject to the same 7-day delay for upward adjustments.

Warning Signs
Recognising Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually and is not always obvious — especially in its early stages. It does not depend on how often you gamble or how much money you spend. Gambling becomes a problem when it negatively affects your financial stability, relationships, mental health, or daily responsibilities.
ld44 encourages every player to periodically reflect honestly on their gambling behaviour. The self-assessment checklist below is a starting point — not a diagnostic tool, but a practical prompt for honest reflection. If you find yourself agreeing with several of the statements, it may be worth speaking to a professional or reaching out to our support team.
Important: This checklist is for self-reflection only. If you are concerned about your gambling or that of someone you know, please contact our support team at [email protected] or reach out to a professional counselling service.

Support & Resources
Reaching out for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. If gambling has started to feel like more than just entertainment — or if someone you care about is showing signs of problem gambling — ld44 encourages you to seek support promptly. The earlier you act, the more straightforward the path to recovery.
ld44's own responsible gaming support team is available via email at [email protected]. Our team can help you activate self-exclusion, set limits, close your account, or simply provide a compassionate first point of contact. We respond within 24 hours (Bangladesh Standard Time, UTC+6) and treat all responsible gaming enquiries with strict confidentiality.
For professional counselling and broader mental health support, we encourage players in Bangladesh to reach out to qualified support services in their area. Gambling problems are recognised mental health concerns and are treated by trained professionals — you do not need to manage this alone.

Best Practices
Safer Gambling Tips
Enjoying ld44 responsibly is entirely achievable when you approach gambling with the right mindset and habits. The following tips are practical guidelines that our experienced team recommends to every player — from newcomers in Dhaka to experienced bettors following the BPL cricket season.
Set a Budget Before You Play
Decide in advance exactly how much you are comfortable spending — and treat that amount as the cost of entertainment, not an investment. Never gamble with money earmarked for rent, bills, food, or family expenses.
Set a Time Limit
Decide how long you will play before you start, and stick to it. Use ld44's session time reminder feature to receive automatic alerts. Stepping away after a set time prevents sessions from drifting into extended, unplanned play.
Never Chase Losses
One of the most common and damaging patterns in problem gambling is chasing losses — increasing bets or playing longer in an attempt to recover money already lost. Losses are part of gambling; accept them and walk away when your budget is spent.
Only Gamble When Calm
Avoid gambling when you are stressed, anxious, emotionally upset, or under the influence of alcohol. Emotional states impair judgment and can lead to impulsive bets that far exceed your intended limits. Gambling should be fun, not a coping mechanism.
Take Regular Breaks
Step away from the screen regularly — even during a winning streak. Taking breaks helps you maintain perspective, reassess your current position, and make more considered decisions about whether to continue playing.
Protect Your Account
Never share your ld44 login credentials with anyone — including family members. Your account is personal, and sharing access makes it impossible to enforce responsible gaming limits effectively. Use a strong, unique password and enable any available account security features.
Understand the Games
Before wagering real money, take time to understand the rules and house edge of the games you play — whether cricket betting markets, Fortune Gems 2 slots, or live casino tables. Informed players make better decisions and have more realistic expectations.
Talk About It
If you feel gambling is becoming a source of stress rather than enjoyment, talk to someone you trust — a friend, family member, or professional counsellor. Keeping gambling concerns private often allows them to escalate. Reaching out early makes a real difference.
Play Smart. Play Safely. Play at ld44.
