Responsible Gaming at Q788 – Play Smart, Stay Safe

Why Responsible Gaming Matters

Gaming at Q788 is meant to be a source of entertainment — a way to enjoy cricket betting during a T20 match, or have a go at slots after a long day. But for entertainment to stay enjoyable, it has to stay within boundaries that you set for yourself.

Problem gaming can affect anyone, regardless of income, education or background. The signs can be subtle at first — spending a bit more than you planned, chasing a loss, skipping responsibilities to play. Recognising these patterns early is the single most important thing you can do for yourself and your family.

Q788 provides the tools to help you stay in control. Deposit limits, session reminders, cooling-off periods and self-exclusion options are all built into your account. They cost nothing to use and are there whenever you need them. We are not here to lecture you — we just want your experience with us to be genuinely good, long-term.

Pakistan has a growing community of sports fans who love the thrill of PSL, international cricket tours, and big Football fixtures. We respect that passion and want to support it responsibly. Using JazzCash or Easypaisa to deposit a budgeted amount before a match, setting a clear loss limit and sticking to it — that is what responsible gaming looks like in practice.

Quick Responsible Gaming Tips

1

Set a weekly budget in PKR before you start — treat it like a ticket to a cricket match, not an investment.

2

Never chase losses. If you have hit your limit for the day, close the app and come back another time.

3

Keep gaming separate from paying household bills, school fees or any essential expenses.

4

Use session time reminders to avoid long unplanned sessions, especially late at night.

5

Talk to someone you trust if gaming feels like it is taking up too much of your mental space.

6

Remember: winning is never guaranteed. Enjoy the game itself, not just the outcome.

Tools to Help You Stay in Control

Q788 gives you practical options to manage how you play. All of these are available directly from your account settings.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly or monthly deposit limit in PKR. Once you reach that amount, no further deposits will be accepted until the period resets. You can lower your limit anytime — increases only take effect after a cooling-off period.

Session Time Reminders

Activate session alerts so you get a notification after 30, 60 or 90 minutes of continuous play. It is easy to lose track of time during a live cricket match — this feature keeps you aware without interrupting the action.

Loss Limits

Define how much you are comfortable losing in a session or over a set period. If your losses reach that threshold, the platform pauses your play. This simple boundary can stop one bad session from becoming a bigger problem.

Cooling-Off Period

Need a short break? A cooling-off period locks your account for a defined time — 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days — while you step away. During this window, you cannot log in, deposit or place bets. It activates immediately.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel gaming is becoming a serious problem, self-exclusion lets you permanently or temporarily close your Q788 account. This is a firm commitment — once activated, it cannot be reversed during the chosen period. Your wellbeing comes first.

Activity History

Review your full deposit, withdrawal and betting history at any time from your account dashboard. Seeing your actual spending patterns in PKR, side by side, is one of the most honest reality checks available to you.

Recognising Warning Signs

Problem gaming rarely appears all at once — it tends to creep in gradually. The following behaviours are worth paying attention to, both in yourself and in people close to you. Spotting them early makes it much easier to course-correct before things get more serious.

It is important to be honest with yourself here. There is no shame in acknowledging that gaming has started to feel different — heavier, more urgent, less fun. That recognition is the first and most important step toward getting things back on track.

If several of the signs below sound familiar, we strongly encourage you to use Q788's self-exclusion or cooling-off tools, speak to a trusted person in your life, and take a proper break from gaming entirely.

Financial Warning Signs

Spending more than you can afford to lose on a regular basis
Borrowing money or selling items to fund gaming
Hiding transactions from family members
Using bill money or household budget for deposits
Constantly thinking about the next deposit or winning back losses

Behavioural Warning Signs

Feeling irritable or anxious when unable to play
Neglecting work, studies or family responsibilities
Playing for much longer than you originally planned
Trying to keep your gaming activity secret from others
Using gaming as the main way to cope with stress or low mood

Social Warning Signs

Withdrawing from friends and family to spend more time gaming
Arguments at home about time or money spent on gaming
Missing out on events, commitments or social occasions
Feeling that only gaming provides genuine excitement

Protecting Under-18s

Q788 is strictly for adults aged 18 and above. We take the protection of minors seriously and have measures in place to prevent underage access. However, parental supervision at home remains the most effective layer of protection.

If you share a device or a mobile phone — which is common across households in Pakistan — we recommend taking the following steps to ensure younger members of your family cannot access gaming platforms:

Use a strong, unique password for your Q788 account that is not stored or visible on your device
Enable screen lock or app lock on your phone when handing it to children
Log out of your account after every session on shared devices
Use parental control software available for Android and iOS devices
Never share your login details with anyone, including older teenagers
Report any suspected underage access to Q788 support immediately

Playing with a Budget

One of the best habits any player can build is setting a strict gaming budget — completely separate from everyday expenses. Here is a simple approach that works well for most players in Pakistan:

Simple Budget Framework

Decide your monthly entertainment budget — an amount in PKR you are fully comfortable losing, separate from rent, bills and food.

Divide it into weekly portions — this prevents blowing the whole month's budget on one exciting PSL night.

Use a separate JazzCash or Easypaisa wallet specifically for deposits, loaded only with your budgeted amount.

Set deposit limits in Q788 that match your budget exactly — do not rely on willpower alone.

Withdraw winnings regularly rather than rolling them back into more bets — this keeps you clearly aware of your real balance.

Responsible Gaming FAQs

Log in to your Q788 account and go to your account settings. Under the Responsible Gaming section, you will find options to set daily, weekly and monthly deposit limits in PKR. Changes that reduce your limit take effect immediately. Requests to increase a limit are subject to a mandatory review period before they come into force.

Self-exclusion is a voluntary decision to block yourself from accessing your Q788 account for a chosen period. You can select a period ranging from 6 months up to 5 years, or choose a permanent closure. During self-exclusion, you cannot log in, deposit, place bets or receive any promotional communications. This takes effect immediately and cannot be reversed during the selected period.

Yes. The cooling-off feature allows you to pause your account for a shorter period — 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days or 30 days — without permanently closing it. During this time your account is locked and you cannot deposit or play. It is a good option if you feel you need a break but are not ready to commit to full self-exclusion.

No. Q788 is strictly for adults aged 18 and above. Age verification is part of the account registration process. If we have reason to suspect an account belongs to someone under 18, the account will be suspended pending verification and any funds will be returned. Please ensure your account details and your identity documents match.

Start by having an open, non-judgmental conversation. Let them know you are concerned and that you want to support them, not criticise them. Encourage them to use the self-exclusion or cooling-off tools on their Q788 account. If the problem feels more serious, speak to a healthcare professional or counsellor. Removing access to devices or shared wallets can also be a practical step in the short term.

No. Setting deposit limits, session reminders or loss limits does not affect your ability to withdraw winnings or claim bonuses on amounts already deposited. These tools only control future deposits and session behaviour. Your existing balance and any pending withdrawals remain completely accessible during a cooling-off period and are returned to you upon self-exclusion.
