AF88's Commitment

Af88 Responsible Gaming — Play Safe & Healthy

At AF88, we believe that healthy gambling is controlled gambling. We provide the tools, guidance, and support you need to keep your gaming experience enjoyable — without affecting your daily life, finances, or relationships.

Deposit Limit Control Play Time Limit Playing Break Self-Exclusion
Gambling is only for individuals aged 18 years and above. If you feel there is a problem, contact us immediately.

6 Control Tools Free For af88 Members

Every one of these tools is available directly within your account — no approval wait time or additional charges required.

Daily / Weekly Deposit Limit

Set a limit on the total amount you can deposit per day, week, or month. Once the limit is reached, our system automatically blocks further deposits until the period resets.

Session Play Time Limit

Limit the time you spend on the platform each day. Once the time limit is reached, you will receive a reminder and the session will be automatically ended to prevent excessive play.

Cool-Off Break

Take a short break ranging from 24 hours to 6 weeks. During the break period, your account will be blocked from wagering activity — but you can still withdraw any remaining funds.

Self-Exclusion

Choose to exclude yourself from the af88 platform for a period of 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanently. This is a more serious step and cannot be reversed before the selected period ends.

Game Content Restrictions

Block specific game types you find challenging to control — such as slots, live tables, or sports betting — while still enjoying other parts of the platform if you wish.

Time Reminders & Notifications

Enable periodic reminders that appear during your play session to notify you of the time elapsed, your current account balance, and the limits you have set.


Playing For Entertainment, Not to Solve Problems

Online gaming, when managed properly, is an enjoyable form of entertainment — much like watching a movie or going out for dinner. Problems only arise when the line between entertainment and dependency starts to blur. At af88, we want you to be aware of this distinction from the very beginning.

The reality is that the majority of AF88 members play responsibly — they set a budget, know when to stop, and treat the platform as one way to unwind after a long day. However, we also understand that some individuals may need extra support, and that is why we have built this comprehensive support system.

Af88's approach to responsible gaming goes beyond meeting legal requirements — it is a core part of our values. We want every member who leaves our platform today to feel better, not more stressed.

Core Principles: If you need to win to pay your bills, it is no longer entertainment. Set your limits before you play, not after you start losing.

How to Activate the Tools Self-Control At AF88

A simple process — you can do it yourself in under 2 minutes directly from your account.

01

Login to Account

Log in to your AF88 account using your username and password. Make sure you are on your personal device.

02

Go to Account Settings

Click the profile icon in the top right corner, then select "Account Settings" or "Responsible Control".

03

Choose the Right Tool

Select the self-control tool you want — deposit limit, time limit, cool-off break, or self-exclusion — then fill in the required details.

04

Confirm & Activate

Review your settings and click "Activate". Limits will take effect immediately. You will receive a confirmation email.

Increasing a limit (e.g. raising your deposit limit) requires a 24-hour cooling period before it takes effect — this is a protective measure for you. Limit reductions take effect immediately.

Are You Playing Responsibly?

Take a moment to reflect on these questions honestly. There are no right or wrong answers — this is simply a guide to help you assess your relationship with gambling. If you answer "yes" to 3 or more questions, we encourage you to reach out to our support team.

01

Have you ever spent more than you could afford in a single gaming session?

02

Have you ever lied to family members or friends about how much time or money you spend on gambling?

03

Have you ever borrowed money or sold something to fund your gambling?

04

Does gambling affect your work performance, studies, or personal relationships?

05

Have you ever felt the urge to keep playing to win back money you had lost (chasing losses)?

06

Do you feel restless, irritable, or uneasy when you are unable to gamble?

Frequently Asked Questions About Responsible Gaming

No — self-exclusion is a commitment that cannot be reversed before the chosen period ends. This is by design, to protect you. Once the period expires, you will need to contact our support team directly and undergo a 7-day cooling period before your account is reactivated. If you choose permanent exclusion, it cannot be reversed under any circumstances.

Your funds are safe and can still be withdrawn during both the play break and self-exclusion periods. You are only blocked from placing new bets or making additional deposits. To make a withdrawal during this period, contact our support team via live chat and they will assist you in processing the withdrawal as usual.

AF88 uses an internal monitoring system that detects behavioral patterns which may indicate a gambling problem — such as sudden increases in deposits, consecutive very long sessions, or repeated attempts to exceed set limits. When such patterns are detected, our team may proactively reach out to offer information on available self-control tools.

Yes, completely. Your self-control settings are personal information protected under af88's Privacy Policy. No family member, friend, or any other third party can view or change your self-control settings — only you can. We only disclose this information if required by law or a court order.

Self-control tools at AF88 are designed for use by the account holder, as AF88 accounts are exclusively for individuals aged 18 and above. If you are concerned about a family member who may be experiencing a gambling problem, we encourage you to speak openly with them and direct them to professional support resources such as Gamblers Anonymous Malaysia or Talian Kasih 15999.

A cool-off break is a temporary measure — ranging from 24 hours to 6 weeks — during which you step away from the platform while your account remains active. It is suitable for those who want to take a short breather and reassess their playing habits. Self-exclusion, on the other hand, is a more serious step with a minimum period of 6 months up to permanent, designed for individuals who recognise they need a longer distance from gambling. Self-exclusion cannot be reversed before the selected period ends.
