Our Philosophy

8www believes gaming is a form of entertainment — not a way to cover household expenses, and certainly not a path to addiction. We provide clear rules, practical tools, and easy access to support so every player can enjoy their time safely and responsibly.

There is a real person behind every account — and that is exactly how we run our platform. It is our responsibility to help players recognise the line between entertainment and harm, and to step back when needed.

Age Policy

To open an account or place any bet on 8www, you must be at least 18 years old. This is not just a legal requirement — it is our clear commitment to protecting minors.

Verification Process

Identity verification is mandatory before your first withdrawal. Any one of the following documents is accepted:

  • National ID Card (NID)
  • Passport
  • Driving Licence

Verification is usually completed within 12 hours after documents are submitted. Your deposited funds will remain in your balance during this time, but withdrawals will not be available until verification is done.

If we suspect that an account belongs to an underage user, we reserve the right to temporarily suspend that account until verification is completed.

Self-Assessment

Answer the following questions honestly. If more than three answers are "Yes", consider setting limits or taking a break.

  • Are you placing bigger bets to try to win back money you've lost?
  • Are you hiding your gambling from family or friends?
  • Are you cutting household expenses to fund your bets?
  • Do you feel restless or anxious when you're not betting?
  • Have you tried to stop but couldn't?
  • Is gambling affecting your work, studies, or relationships?

How to Set Limits

You can apply the limits below directly from your 8www account settings. Limits take effect immediately; any request to increase a limit will not be processed before 24 hours.

8www Self-Exclusion Process

If you want to close your account for a set period or permanently, it is completely free and unconditional. No marketing messages will be sent during the self-exclusion period.

  1. ১

    Request via Live Chat

    Message our 24/7 Live Chat with "I want self-exclusion" — the support team will send you the form.

  2. ২

    Choose Your Exclusion Period

    Pick from 30 days, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or permanent exclusion — whichever suits you.

  3. ৩

    Account Suspended Immediately

    As soon as your request is accepted, login will be disabled and your balance will be kept safe.

  4. ৪

    Reactivation After the Period Ends

    Once the period is over, a confirmation email will be sent to you; the account will not reopen automatically.

Important If you attempt to open a new account during self-exclusion, it will be cancelled and any deposited funds will be refunded. We can also detect registration attempts from any other device or name.

Signs of Problem Gambling

The behaviours below may be warning signs. One or two signs alone may not indicate a problem, but if they keep appearing, it is worth paying attention.

  • Continuously betting beyond your budget
  • Chasing losses by placing even bigger bets to "get even"
  • Finding money to gamble without your family knowing
  • Losing focus at work or in your studies
  • Feeling irritated or angry when you cannot play
  • Losing occasionally but staying within your budget — this is not a problem
  • Playing regularly within your limits for entertainment — this is not a problem

FAQ

01 Will my balance be lost if I apply for self-exclusion?
No. Your balance is fully preserved throughout the self-exclusion period. Once the period ends and your account is reactivated, you can withdraw as normal.
02 How do I set a deposit limit on 8www?
Log in to your account, go to the "Security" or "Responsible Gaming" tab, and enter your preferred daily or weekly limit. Lowering a limit takes effect immediately; increasing one requires a 24-hour waiting period.
03 Can I return before my self-exclusion period ends?
No. Once self-exclusion is active, it cannot be reversed before the period expires. This is intentional — it is designed to protect you from acting on a momentary impulse.
04 Can a family member apply for self-exclusion on someone else's behalf?
Not directly, as identity verification is required for account security. However, if you explain the situation via Live Chat, our team will guide you through the right steps.
05 What is the minimum duration for a cooling-off period?
The Cooling-off period can be set for a minimum of 24 hours and a maximum of 30 days. For a longer break beyond that, please follow the self-exclusion process.
06 How often does the Reality Check reminder appear?
You can set the interval yourself — every 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours. Each reminder shows your total session time and spending so far.
