Gaming on 789q should be enjoyable, not stressful. This page covers the tools we provide, the warning signs to watch for, and what to do if you feel your gaming is getting out of hand. Every Pakistani player on 789q deserves to play with confidence.
These tools are available free of charge to every registered 789q player, accessible from your account settings dashboard at any time.
Set a daily, weekly or monthly cap on how much you can deposit into your 789q account. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a cooling-off period before it becomes active — decreasing takes effect straight away.
Set a reminder notification after a specific number of hours in a single gaming session on 789q. The reminder appears on screen, giving you a clear moment to reflect on whether to continue or take a break. It does not force a log-out — you stay in control.
Enable periodic pop-up summaries during your 789q sessions that show your net win or loss for the current session and total time played. This keeps your actual performance visible rather than letting time and money blur together during extended play.
Take a break from 789q for 24 hours, 48 hours, one week or one month. During a cooling-off period, you cannot log in or place bets. The period cannot be shortened once activated. Your account and balance are preserved for when you return.
Self-exclusion permanently or temporarily closes your access to 789q. Options range from 6 months to permanent closure. Once self-exclusion is activated, it cannot be reversed during the chosen period — even if you ask. This is by design, to protect you.
Set a cap on the total amount you are willing to lose in a given period. Once your loss limit is reached on 789q, betting is automatically paused for the remainder of that period. Like deposit limits, reducing a loss limit takes effect immediately.
Answer honestly — this quick check is just for you. Nobody sees your answers. Tick any statements that apply to your gaming behaviour over the last 30 days.
You did not tick any warning signs. Keep using 789q's deposit limits and session reminders to stay in control. Remember: gaming should always feel like entertainment, not an obligation.
You ticked 1–2 items. This is worth paying attention to. Consider setting or reviewing your deposit and loss limits on 789q. A short cooling-off period can also help you reset. If things feel difficult, 789q's support team is available 24/7.
You ticked 3 or more items. Please take this seriously. Activate self-exclusion from your 789q account settings right now, or contact 789q support to have it activated on your behalf. You can also reach out to a support organisation — details are further down this page. You are not alone and help is available.
Every tool listed here is available from inside your account. Here is exactly where to find them and how they work.
From the 789q homepage, log in and click your account icon in the top right corner. Select "Account Settings" from the dropdown. All responsible gaming tools are grouped under the "Player Protection" section in the left-hand menu.
The most effective starting point is a deposit limit. Choose a daily, weekly or monthly PKR amount that fits comfortably within your entertainment budget — not what you hope to win back. Once set, any increase requires a 24-hour waiting period to prevent impulsive changes.
Set a session reminder for 1, 2 or 3 hours — or a custom duration. When the reminder fires on 789q, take that moment seriously: check your balance, assess how you feel, and decide consciously whether to continue or stop.
If you've had a frustrating session or feel the urge to keep playing beyond your comfort zone, activate a cooling-off period. Even 24 hours makes a difference. This is not failure — it is the responsible gaming system working exactly as intended.
If you feel that gaming is becoming a problem, use the self-exclusion tool in your 789q account settings. You can choose a period from 6 months to permanent. Once activated, 789q will close your access for that full period with no option to reverse it — this is intentional protection, not a restriction.
If you cannot access your account or need assistance activating any tool, 789q's support team is available 24 hours a day via live chat. You can request self-exclusion directly through the support team if for any reason you cannot access account settings.

Active in all accountsProblem gambling can develop gradually and is often hard to see clearly from the inside. These are the signs that should prompt you — or someone close to you — to act.
Chasing losses — continuing to play to try to win back money you have already lost, often leading to even larger losses.
Hiding activity — concealing how much time or money you spend on gaming from your family or colleagues.
Borrowing to play — taking loans, using credit or selling belongings specifically to fund gaming activity.
Neglecting responsibilities — skipping work, studies or family duties because of time spent gaming.
Persistent preoccupation — thinking about gaming constantly, including when doing completely unrelated things.
Failed attempts to stop — genuinely wanting to cut back or stop but repeatedly finding yourself unable to follow through.
Mood dependence — using gaming to escape from stress, anxiety, loneliness or depression rather than for entertainment.
Relationship impact — arguments, tension or trust issues at home or with friends that are directly related to your gaming behaviour.
Recognise any of these? Please use the self-assessment quiz above, or activate self-exclusion from your 789q account settings right now. You can also contact 789q support via live chat 24/7 and the team will help you access the right tool without judgment.
The most important thing to understand about responsible gaming on 789q is this: gaming is entertainment. Like going to a cricket match, watching a film or eating out, it costs money and takes time — and that's completely fine, as long as it stays within boundaries that you are genuinely comfortable with. The moment gaming stops feeling like fun and starts feeling like an obligation, a solution to financial stress or a compulsion you cannot control, it has shifted from entertainment to a problem that needs to be addressed.
At 789q, we build and operate a platform for the enjoyment of Pakistani players who want to bet on football, play Ludo, spin the slots or try their hand at baccarat — all in PKR, all from their phone. That's the experience we designed for. But we also know that a small percentage of players, for various reasons, develop a relationship with gaming that isn't healthy for them. For those players, having the right tools and information readily available can make a genuine difference.
Responsible gaming on 789q is not a set of rules designed to limit your enjoyment. It's a framework that puts you in control of your own experience. That means knowing how much you want to spend before you start, using the deposit and loss limits that match your budget, taking regular breaks, and being honest with yourself about how gaming fits into your life overall.
It also means 789q playing its part. Every registered account on 789q comes with access to the full suite of protection tools described on this page — free, always accessible, no hoops to jump through. Our support team is trained to recognise when a player may be struggling and to connect them with the right help. If 789q's systems detect patterns of play that suggest a problem — such as very high session lengths, rapid loss chasing or significant balance drawdowns — the platform will reach out proactively, not punitively.
If you follow only one piece of guidance from this entire page, make it this: only ever gamble with money that you can genuinely afford to lose. Not money you expect to win back. Not borrowed money. Not rent or grocery money. Only your genuine entertainment budget. If you treat every PKR you deposit into 789q the same way you would treat money spent on a cinema ticket — gone once spent, no expectation of return — you will almost always stay on the right side of responsible play.
The deposit limit tool on 789q is built specifically to support this principle. Set your monthly entertainment budget for gaming when you are calm and not playing — not in the middle of a session. Then trust that figure and let the limit do its job. The 24-hour delay on increasing limits is there precisely to protect you from impulsive decisions made during or after a frustrating session.
In many Pakistani households, finances are shared and family members are close. Problem gambling affects not just the individual player but everyone around them. If someone you care about is showing signs of problematic gaming behaviour — withdrawing money frequently, becoming secretive about their phone, borrowing from family members, or showing mood changes related to wins and losses — it is reasonable and caring to raise the subject gently and directly.
789q's self-exclusion tool can be activated from within the player's own account. If the player is not willing to use it themselves, a family member or close friend who has access to their registered email and phone number can contact 789q support at support@789q.life to request a third-party exclusion review. We take these requests seriously and act on them as quickly as possible.
For families and friends of players: If you are concerned about someone's gaming behaviour on 789q or any other platform, contact 789q's support team at support@789q.life. Describe your concerns clearly and include any relevant account details you have access to. Your contact will be treated confidentially.
789q enforces a strict 18+ age requirement across all real-money products on the platform. Registration requires age confirmation and identity verification is conducted before any significant withdrawals. If you have children or younger family members in your household who use the same device you play on, we strongly recommend enabling device-level parental controls or using a separate browser profile with password protection for your 789q account.
If you believe a minor has registered on 789q or has been accessing your account, contact support immediately. 789q will investigate, close any underage account and return any deposits in accordance with applicable regulations. The protection of minors is treated as an absolute priority on 789q — not something we negotiate on.
Losses are a normal part of betting and gaming — they are built into every game and every market through the house edge and the odds structure. Every bet placed on 789q is a bet where you might lose the stake. This is true of football accumulators, roulette spins, slot sessions and baccarat rounds. The right way to think about a loss is that it was the price of the entertainment — like the cost of a match ticket even if the team lost. The wrong way to think about it is that you are owed a win, or that continuing to play will inevitably bring the money back.
One of the clearest signs of problem gambling is the belief that a losing streak must end soon, and that the way to recover is to keep playing. It won't work — statistically, each outcome is independent of previous outcomes on certified RNG games. Understanding this, genuinely accepting it, is one of the most protective things a player can do for themselves.
These are the specific commitments 789q makes to every player on the platform — not aspirational statements, but operational practices.
Age verification is mandatory on 789q. We use CNIC verification for real-money accounts and act immediately on any credible report of underage access.
Every responsible gaming tool on 789q — deposit limits, self-exclusion, cooling-off, reality checks — is free to use and available to every registered player at any time.
When a player self-excludes on 789q, that exclusion is activated immediately and maintained for the full chosen period. No re-registration workarounds, no exceptions.
789q's systems monitor for behavioural patterns associated with problem gambling. Where identified, we reach out to the player with information and tool access — proactively, not reactively.
789q's 24/7 support team receives ongoing training in responsible gaming topics so they can respond to player concerns sensitively, knowledgeably and without judgment.
Players who have self-excluded or activated cooling-off periods on 789q are immediately removed from all marketing communications for the duration of their restriction — and beyond unless they opt back in.
Register your 789q account with full access to deposit limits, self-exclusion and all responsible gaming tools from day one. Football betting, Ludo, fishing games and more — all in PKR.
