What is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means enjoying online entertainment activities – whether Slots, Live Casino or Sports Betting – in a mindful, controlled manner that does not negatively impact yourself or your loved ones.

For koko88, this is more than a legal obligation. It is a core value we truly believe in. We want our users to enjoy this platform as a fun source of entertainment — not as a financial burden or a source of problems in their daily lives.

Healthy entertainment starts with a good understanding of how to play, setting realistic limits, and recognising early warning signs if the game begins to have unintended effects. koko88 provides all the tools needed to make sure this happens.

It is important to understand that in gambling, losses are a real possibility. No system, strategy or "luck" can guarantee consistent wins. Every game should be treated as an entertainment cost, not a source of income.

Simple Principles: Only play with money you can afford to lose. Never use savings, borrowed money, or funds needed for essential expenses.
Signs of Healthy Gaming
  • You play for fun, not to relieve stress or negative emotions.
  • You have set time and money limits before playing, and you respect those limits.
  • You can stop playing at any time without excessive anxiety or distress.
  • Losses do not drive you to keep playing in order to "chase" what you lost.
  • Your gambling activity does not interfere with work, relationships, or daily responsibilities.
  • You are honest with yourself and others about how much time and money you spend.
  • You do not take out loans or use money that should be set aside for other needs.
Reminder: Gambling is not a way to solve financial problems. If you are playing to earn money to pay off debts or bills, this is a warning sign that should be taken seriously.
Tools Self-Control KOKO88

Koko88 provides the following in-platform tools to help you play in a controlled manner

Daily Deposit Limit

Set a maximum deposit amount you allow yourself within any 24-hour period. Once this limit is reached, the platform will block any further deposits until the period resets.

Loss Limit

Set a maximum loss limit for a daily, weekly or monthly period. Once this limit is reached, you will not be able to continue betting until that period ends.

Session Time Limit

Set a time limit for each gaming session. Once the time limit is reached, the platform will send a warning and automatically end your session if necessary.

Cool-off

Take a temporary break from the platform for 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days. During this period, you will not be able to log in or place any bets.

Self-Exclusion

A more permanent option – self-exclude from the koko88 platform for a minimum period of 6 months or permanently. All remaining balances will be returned once the period ends (where applicable).

Notification Controls

Manage or fully disable promotional and bonus notifications. This helps reduce the urge to play triggered by platform offers and invitations.

How to access the self-control tools: Log in to your koko88 account, go to account settings, and select "Game Controls". All of the above tools are available there. If you need assistance, our support team is ready to help via 24/7 live chat.
Recognise Warning Signs

Gambling problems rarely appear overnight. They typically develop gradually, with habits that change little by little. Recognising the early warning signs is the single most important first step toward getting help before the situation becomes more serious.

Many people are unaware that they have a gambling problem because they compare themselves to the extreme portrayals often depicted in the media. The reality is that problem gambling can happen to anyone, regardless of background, education or economic status.

The following simple test can help you assess your relationship with gambling more objectively. This is not a medical diagnosis – it is simply a guide for honest self-reflection.

If you answer "yes" to 3 or more of the questions below, we encourage you to contact the koko88 support team or seek professional help. There is no shame in asking for help – it is a sign of strength, not weakness.

Commitment KOKO88 to User Wellbeing

Concrete initiatives we have put in place to protect users on our platform

Strict Age Verification

All new users go through a strict age verification process. Any account suspected of belonging to an individual under 18 years of age will be suspended immediately until verified through the KYC process.

Behaviour Monitoring

Koko88's analytics system monitors betting patterns that may indicate a problem – such as a sudden spike in bets following significant losses – and our team will reach out to users when necessary.

Staff Training

All koko88 customer support staff are trained to recognise and assist users who may be experiencing gambling problems, in an empathetic and non-judgmental manner.

No Credit for Wagering

Koko88 does not offer any form of credit or loan facility for wagering purposes. Users may only bet using funds already deposited in their account.

Responsible Marketing

Koko88 promotions and bonuses are not targeted at individuals who have used self-limit tools or those showing problem gambling patterns. We do not send promotions to self-excluded accounts.

Clear Odds Information

Koko88 displays RTP (Return to Player) information for all slot games. We believe users who understand the true odds make better, more informed decisions when they play.

FAQ – Responsible Gaming

Log in to your koko88 account, click the profile icon in the top right corner, and select "Account Settings". Under the "Game Controls" section, you will find options to set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits. Reductions take effect immediately, while increases require a 24-hour waiting period before taking effect.

A Cool-off is a temporary measure for a short break — from 24 hours up to 30 days — during which your account cannot be accessed. Once the period ends, you can log back in automatically. Self-Exclusion is a more permanent step — you exclude yourself for a minimum period of 6 months or permanently. If you feel overwhelmed and need immediate help, Self-Exclusion is the more appropriate option.

Yes, you may request account closure at any time via live chat or the koko88 support email. Our team will process your request promptly and without unnecessary questioning. Any balance remaining in your account will be returned to your original payment method once all verification requirements are met.

Besides contacting the koko88 support team via live chat, you can seek professional help through various organisations that provide gambling problem counselling. In Malaysia, counselling and mental health services are available through government clinics and public hospitals. Speaking with your family doctor is a good first step towards getting a referral to the right specialist.

No. Online gambling is not suitable for everyone. It is not suitable for individuals under 18 years of age, those with a history of addiction (alcohol, drugs or gambling), individuals experiencing serious financial difficulties, those easily influenced by emotional pressure, or individuals who cannot distinguish between entertainment and financial responsibility. If you fall into any of these categories, we encourage you not to use gambling platforms.
