Our Commitment

Gaming Should Be Entertainment — Not a Burden

At 1xgames, we talk about responsible gaming not because it is a policy checkbox, but because we genuinely believe it matters. We are a platform built for Pakistani players, and we understand that behind every account is a real person — someone with a family, financial responsibilities, and a life beyond the screen.

Betting on cricket, playing Andar Bahar, spinning a live roulette wheel — these are forms of entertainment when approached with the right mindset. You set a budget, you enjoy the experience, and whatever the result, your day carries on normally. That is what responsible gaming looks like at 1xgames.

The moment gaming stops feeling like recreation and starts feeling like a necessity — when you are chasing losses, skipping meals, or borrowing money to fund your next bet — it has crossed a line. That line is different for everyone, and 1xgames is here to help you recognise it and act on it before things get difficult.

This page explains every responsible gaming tool available on 1xgames, how to activate them, and what to do if you need support right now. No judgment, no delays, no runaround. We take this seriously, and our support team is trained to respond to responsible gaming requests immediately, around the clock.

Need help right now? If your gaming has become a problem and you need to stop immediately, email support@1xgames.ws with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request" and your account will be suspended within minutes. No questions asked, no waiting period.

Built-In Tools

Responsible Gaming Controls on 1xgames

These tools are available to every registered player — free, always accessible, and effective immediately when activated.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum amount you can deposit into your 1xgames account in a given period — daily, weekly, or monthly. Once a deposit limit is active, you cannot exceed it no matter how tempting the next bet feels. Reducing a limit takes effect immediately. Increasing one requires a 24-hour cooling period — by design.

Loss Limits

Set a maximum net loss across all gaming activity on 1xgames over a defined period. When you reach your loss limit, your session is paused until the period resets. This tool is especially useful if you know you have a tendency to keep playing after a bad run — it removes the decision from you entirely.

Session Time Reminders

Set a reminder that appears on screen after you have been playing for a set amount of time — 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, or custom. It is easy to lose track of time on 1xgames, especially during live cricket or a long casino session. Session reminders put you back in control without interrupting your game.

Cooling-Off Period

Take a short break from 1xgames without permanently closing your account. Cooling-off periods of 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days are available. During a cooling-off period, you cannot log in or deposit — giving you time and space to reset without the pressure of an active account. You will not receive any marketing messages during this period.

Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is a full suspension of your 1xgames account for a minimum of 6 months. During this period, you cannot log in, deposit, or access any games. Your account is locked, your data is retained as required by law, and you are removed from all marketing lists. At the end of the exclusion period, reopening your account requires a deliberate, verified request — there is no automatic reactivation.

Permanent Account Closure

If you decide you no longer want to use 1xgames at all, you can request permanent account closure. Your real-money balance will be returned to your registered payment method after standard verification. Permanently closed accounts cannot be reopened. This is a serious, irreversible decision — our support team will confirm your intent before proceeding.

All responsible gaming tools are accessible from your account settings. For immediate assistance, contact support@1xgames.ws at any time.

Step-by-Step

How to Activate Responsible Gaming Tools on 1xgames

Setting up responsible gaming controls on 1xgames takes less than two minutes. Here is how to do it from your mobile or desktop browser.

1
Log In to Your Account

Go to 1xgames.ws and log in using your registered mobile number and password. Make sure you are in a calm, private setting — not mid-session while already emotional about a result.

2
Go to Account Settings

Tap or click your account icon in the top right corner of the page. Select "Account Settings" from the dropdown menu. On mobile, this is in the hamburger menu under your account section.

3
Open Responsible Gaming

Find the "Responsible Gaming" section in your account settings. This is where all limits, cooling-off options, and self-exclusion tools are housed. The section is clearly labelled and always accessible.

4
Select and Set Your Tool

Choose the tool you need — deposit limit, loss limit, session reminder, cooling-off period, or self-exclusion. Enter the values or duration you want and confirm. Limits that restrict your activity take effect immediately.

5
Contact Support If You Prefer

If you would rather speak to someone than do it yourself, email support@1xgames.ws or use the live chat on any page. Say what you need and our team will set it up for you straightaway — no delay, no pressure.

Know the Signs

Warning Signs That Gaming Is Becoming a Problem

Problem gambling does not usually announce itself loudly. It tends to creep in gradually — a bigger bet here, a session that goes a bit longer there, until something shifts and it stops being fun. These are the signs to watch for, in yourself and in people close to you.

Chasing Losses

Continuing to bet in an attempt to recover money already lost — "just one more bet to get back to even" — is one of the clearest signs that gambling has shifted from entertainment to compulsion.

Gambling With Bill Money

Using funds that were meant for household bills, rent, groceries, or children's expenses to fund gaming activity is a serious warning sign that gaming is disrupting your financial stability.

Hiding It From Family

Feeling the need to hide your gaming activity from your spouse, parents, or close friends — or lying about how much time or money you are spending — is a sign that something is wrong.

Feeling Anxious Without It

Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when you are not able to place a bet or access 1xgames is a psychological sign of dependency that should be taken seriously.

Borrowing Money to Bet

Borrowing money from friends, family, or any lending source specifically to fund gambling activity — regardless of the reason you tell yourself — is a significant warning sign.

Losing Sleep Over It

Staying up very late to keep playing, or lying awake thinking about upcoming bets, past losses, or how to fund the next session — when gaming is taking over your sleep, it is time to act.

What 1xgames Does When We Spot a Problem

1xgames does not just provide responsible gaming tools — we actively monitor for patterns of play that may indicate a problem is developing. Our responsible gaming team reviews accounts for signals such as significantly increased deposit frequency, extended session lengths, unusual patterns of loss chasing, and sudden jumps in stake size relative to previous behaviour.

When we identify a concern, we may reach out to you directly — not to question your choices, but to make sure you are aware of the tools available and to check in on whether you are okay. In more serious cases, we may apply responsible gaming measures proactively, including temporary deposit limits or a mandatory cooling-off period.

If you receive a message from 1xgames about your gaming activity, please read it carefully and respond honestly. These messages are sent by real people who are genuinely concerned — not by automated systems looking for an excuse to restrict your account.

Remember: 1xgames makes money when players enjoy the platform over the long term. Problem gambling destroys that relationship. We have every reason to want you to stay in control.

Self-Assessment

Is Your Gaming Still in the Entertainment Zone?

Answer these five honest questions to get a sense of where you stand right now. No data is collected — this is just for you.

1. In the past month, have you gambled with money meant for household expenses or bills?
2. Have you tried to win back money you lost by placing more bets?
3. Have you felt anxious, irritable, or low when you could not gamble?
4. Have you hidden your gambling activity or the amount you spend from someone close to you?
5. Do you feel in control of how much time and money you spend on gambling each week?
Your answers suggest your gaming may have moved beyond the entertainment zone. This is not a judgement — it happens to many people. Please consider using the self-exclusion or cooling-off tools on 1xgames, or contact our support team now at support@1xgames.ws. Reaching out early makes everything easier.
Your answers suggest your gaming is broadly in a healthy zone. Keep monitoring your habits, stay within your budget, and remember that the responsible gaming tools on 1xgames are there whenever you need them.

Golden Rules

1xgames Responsible Gaming Principles for Pakistani Players

These are the principles we ask every player to keep in mind every time they open the platform.

Only Bet What You Can Afford to Lose

Before you deposit, mentally set aside that money as spent. If you cannot comfortably do that — because the money belongs to something else — do not deposit it. This single rule prevents most gambling-related financial problems.

Set a Time Limit Before You Start

Decide how long you will play before you open the platform. Stick to it. Use 1xgames' session timer to enforce this automatically if you find it hard to stop mid-session — there is no shame in using the tools for exactly this purpose.

Never Chase Losses

If you have reached your loss limit for the session, stop. Chasing losses is how a bad night turns into a financial problem. No bet placed in frustration or desperation has ever reliably solved a losing run — it usually makes it worse.

Take Regular Breaks

Step away from the platform regularly, even during winning sessions. Breaks help you stay clear-headed, avoid fatigue-driven decisions, and maintain perspective on whether you are still enjoying the experience.

Play for Fun, Not for Income

Treat winnings as a pleasant bonus, not an expectation. 1xgames is not and cannot replace a salary, a business, or a financial plan. The moment you start thinking of it as income, the relationship with gambling has shifted to somewhere unhealthy.

Use the Tools — That Is What They Are There For

Setting deposit limits, activating session reminders, and taking cooling-off periods are not signs of weakness — they are smart decisions made by players who want to stay in control. 1xgames built these tools because we want you to use them.

Responsible Gaming — Common Questions

Answers to what Pakistani players most commonly ask about the responsible gaming tools on 1xgames.

No. By design, increases to deposit limits on 1xgames require a 24-hour cooling period before they take effect. Reductions, by contrast, apply immediately. This asymmetry is intentional — it gives you time to reconsider an increase made in the heat of the moment without blocking you from reducing your limit instantly when you need to.

Your real-money balance — any funds deposited and not yet bet — will be returned to your registered payment method after standard KYC verification. Any active bonus balance will be cancelled at the time of self-exclusion. Pending bet settlements will be completed normally; any resulting winnings will also be returned to your registered payment method.

The minimum self-exclusion period on 1xgames is 6 months. Longer periods — including indefinite exclusion — are available. At the end of the exclusion period, your account is not automatically reactivated. You must make a deliberate, verified request to reopen it, and 1xgames will apply a further 24-hour waiting period before access is restored.

No. As soon as a cooling-off period or self-exclusion is activated on your account, you are immediately removed from all 1xgames marketing lists. You will not receive any promotional SMS, email, or in-app notifications for the duration of the restriction. If you do receive a marketing message during an active restriction, contact support@1xgames.ws immediately so we can investigate and correct it.

If you believe a family member is gambling problematically on 1xgames, contact our support team at support@1xgames.ws with as much detail as you can share — including the account holder's name and mobile number if known. We will investigate the concern sensitively and can apply appropriate account restrictions. We cannot share account information with third parties, but we can act on welfare concerns raised in good faith.

Yes. In addition to 1xgames' own self-exclusion tool, you can use device-level blocking software to prevent access to gaming websites. Most Android and iOS devices have built-in screen time or parental control features that allow specific website blocking. We recommend using both your 1xgames account-level self-exclusion and device-level blocking together for the most effective approach.

Protecting Minors — 1xgames is an 18+ Platform

1xgames is strictly for adults aged 18 and above. We require age verification during registration and reserve the right to request CNIC documentation at any point. Accounts confirmed to belong to underage individuals are permanently closed and all balances are forfeited.

If you are a parent or guardian and you are concerned that a young person in your household may be accessing 1xgames or similar platforms, we strongly recommend:

  • Keeping your devices password-protected and not sharing login credentials with your children.
  • Using your device's parental controls to block access to gaming or gambling websites.
  • Having an open, honest conversation with your children about gambling — including the risks, the reality of odds, and why responsible gaming matters.
  • Contacting 1xgames at support@1xgames.ws if you believe your child has accessed or is currently using our platform.

We take underage access seriously. No marketing communication from 1xgames is directed at anyone under 18, and all promotional content includes clear 18+ labelling.
