Responsible Gaming Tools

198kis provides a range of self-control tools that you can use at any time to keep your gaming experience positive and in check.

Daily / Weekly Deposit Limit

Set a maximum deposit limit for a daily, weekly, or monthly period directly from your account. Once the limit is reached, no further deposits will be processed until the limit period resets — giving you full control over your spending.

Session Time Limit

Set the maximum amount of time you want to spend in a single gaming session. Our platform will notify you when the time limit is about to expire and will automatically end the session once the limit is reached.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need an extended break, the self-exclusion feature allows you to suspend access to your account for a period of your choosing — from 30 days up to a permanent block if needed.

Gaming Activity Tracker

Track your full gaming activity history — including total time played, total deposits, and win and loss records. This information helps you make smarter decisions based on real data.

Promotional Notification Controls

You can choose to stop receiving promotional notifications, special offers, and marketing messages at any time. Managing the information you receive is part of playing responsibly.

24/7 Immediate Support

Our trained support team is available at any time. Whether you need technical assistance, self-control guidance, or simply want to talk to someone, we are always here for you.

198kis's Commitment to Responsible Gaming

198kis believes that online gaming should be an enjoyable form of entertainment — not a source of stress, financial hardship, or conflict in daily life. That is why we have placed responsible gaming at the core of how we operate and serve all our members across Malaysia.

For us, this responsibility is not just words on paper. Every self-control feature we offer, every training we provide to our support team, and every policy we implement is part of our genuine commitment to ensuring that the 198kis platform is a safe, fair, and responsible place for all members.

We also recognize that some individuals may face challenges related to gambling control. For them, 198kis provides easily accessible resources, tools, and support channels to help them manage their situation more effectively. No member will be penalized or judged for seeking help — on the contrary, we encourage open discussion and early action before issues become more serious.

Remember: Gambling should be entertainment, not a way to generate income or solve financial problems. Play within your means.

Recognize the Early Warning Signs

One of the most important steps in responsible gaming is recognising early warning signs before gaming habits develop into a more serious problem. Here are some situations to watch out for:

Playing Beyond Your Financial Means

You start using money meant for daily necessities such as rent, utility bills, or food to play, or borrow money from others solely to continue playing.

Chasing Losses Continuously

You continue playing even after suffering significant losses, hoping to recover the money lost. This is one of the most telling signs of a gambling problem.

Neglecting Daily Responsibilities

Gaming is starting to interfere with your work, family relationships, studies, or social activities. You frequently feel guilty, anxious, or irritable when you are not playing.

Hiding Gaming Habits

You hide your gaming activity from family members or friends, or lie about the amount of time and money spent on gaming.

If you recognise one or more of the above signs in yourself or someone you care about, we encourage you to use the available self-control tools or contact our support team right away.

Test Yourself — Are You Playing Responsibly?

Answer the following questions honestly. If you answer "Yes" to three or more questions, consider speaking with our support team or seeking professional help:

1

Have you ever played longer or spent more than you originally planned?

2

Do you play to escape problems, work stress, or feelings of sadness and loneliness?

3

Have you ever lied to family members or friends about your gaming activity or the amount of money involved?

4

Do you feel the need to keep increasing your bet amounts to make the game feel more challenging and exciting?

5

Have you ever tried to stop or reduce your gaming activity but were unable to do so?

6

Has gaming negatively affected your relationships with family, work, or your social life overall?

If you answered "No" to all of the above questions, congratulations — you are playing responsibly. Continue to monitor yourself regularly.

How to Set Self-Control Limits at 198kis

Activating self-control tools on 198kis is straightforward and can be done directly from your account. Follow the steps below:

1

Login to Your Account

Sign in to your 198kis account using your registered username and password. Make sure you access the platform through the official 198kis website.

2

Access Account Settings

Go to your "Account Settings" or "Profile" section. There you will find the "Responsible Gaming" or "Self-Control" menu.

3

Select the Limit Type You Need

Choose from deposit limits, session time limits, a temporary self-break, or full self-exclusion. Each option comes with clear, easy-to-follow instructions.

4

Confirm Your Selection

Review the limits you have set and confirm. Limits will take effect immediately or within the specified timeframe depending on the type of limit selected.

5

Contact Support If Needed

If you experience any difficulties setting limits or need further assistance, contact our support team, available to help you 24 hours a day.

Important Note: Limit reductions take effect immediately. However, limit increases are subject to a 24-hour review period to ensure decisions are made with careful consideration.

A Guide for Family Members and Friends

Sometimes, those closest to us may notice changes in a person's habits more easily than the person themselves. If you are concerned about the gaming habits of a family member or friend, here are some guidelines that may help:

  • Offer support without judgment. Start the conversation with compassion and concern, not anger or accusations. People struggling with gambling problems often feel ashamed and find it harder to open up when met with a negative reaction.
  • Avoid lending money. Even with good intentions, giving money to someone with a gambling problem may only make the situation worse in the long run.
  • Seek accurate information. Learn more about gambling problems and available support resources so you can provide more effective and meaningful assistance.
  • Take care of your own well-being. Supporting someone with a gambling problem can be emotionally draining. Make sure you seek the support you need as well.
  • Contact us for assistance. The 198kis support team can assist you with information on how to restrict account access or provide further guidance on responsible gaming issues.
18+

The 198kis platform is for users aged 18 and above only. Access by underage individuals is strictly prohibited and is against our platform policy.

Tips for Healthy Play

  • Set a playing budget before starting your session
  • Treat losses as the cost of entertainment, not as debt
  • Take regular breaks while playing
  • Do not play when stressed or angry
  • Balance gaming time with other activities
  • Do not chase losses — it is the riskiest choice
  • Play for fun, not for profit

FAQ – Responsible Gaming

Yes, you can set deposit limits directly from your account settings without contacting the support team. This feature is designed to give you immediate and easy control over your gaming spending. However, if you encounter any technical issues during the process, our support team is ready to assist.

The minimum self-exclusion period at 198kis is 30 days. You may choose a longer duration based on your needs, including options for 90 days, 180 days, one year, or permanent exclusion. During an active exclusion period, access to your account will be fully suspended and you will not receive any marketing communications.

Yes. In addition to deposit limits, 198kis also offers daily, weekly, and monthly loss limits. Once your loss limit is reached, the system will block any further wagering activity for that period. This is a highly useful tool to ensure you do not overspend in a single session or gaming period.

To protect your interests, self-exclusion cannot be cancelled immediately. There is a mandatory cooling-off period before your account can be reactivated. This is a policy we enforce deliberately to help you make more considered decisions. Please contact our support team for more information about this process.

You can reach the 198kis support team via email at [email protected] and share your concerns. Our team, trained in responsible gaming issues, will assist you with further information and guidance. All communications will be handled with complete confidentiality and compassion.
