1. 18+ Age Restriction

ctg888 operates strictly as an adults-only platform. All players must be a minimum of 18 years of age to register an account, place bets, play casino games, or make any financial transactions on the ctg888 platform. This is a firm, non-negotiable requirement that applies to every player in Bangladesh and globally, without exception.

During the account registration and KYC verification process, ctg888 requires every new player to confirm their date of birth and to submit valid government-issued photo identification. Acceptable documents include the Bangladesh National Identity Card (NID), a valid passport, or a government-issued driving licence. Where any doubt exists about a player's age, ctg888 will suspend access to real-money gaming until full age verification has been completed satisfactorily.

ctg888 uses automated age-screening checks at the point of registration and may conduct additional manual reviews at any time. Any account found to belong to a player under the age of 18 will be closed immediately, all deposits will be returned, and any winnings generated will be voided. ctg888 takes underage gambling seriously and will report any suspected cases of underage gambling to the appropriate authorities.

Important: If you are aware of a minor who may have access to a ctg888 account — including a family member's account — please contact our support team immediately at [email protected] so we can take appropriate protective action without delay.

Protecting minors in your household

ctg888 strongly recommends that all adult players in Bangladesh take proactive steps to prevent minors in their household from accessing gambling platforms. Practical measures include:

  • Never sharing your ctg888 username, password, or device PIN with anyone, especially children or teenagers.
  • Logging out of your ctg888 account fully after every session — do not rely on browser autofill or saved passwords on shared devices.
  • Using parental control software on any device that minors may access. Reputable tools include Net Nanny, Kaspersky Safe Kids, and Google Family Link.
  • Storing your ctg888 login credentials securely and separately from places accessible to minors.
  • Setting up separate, restricted user accounts on shared smartphones, tablets, and computers so that children cannot access gambling apps or websites.

2. Recognising Problem Gambling

For the vast majority of ctg888 players, sports betting and casino gaming is a form of entertainment — a way to enjoy cricket, football, or slots with an added layer of excitement. However, for a small percentage of individuals, gambling can develop into a problematic behaviour that negatively impacts their financial wellbeing, relationships, mental health, and daily life.

Problem gambling does not always look the same for everyone. It can develop gradually over months, or it can escalate quickly following a period of significant losses or personal stress. Being able to recognise the early warning signs — in yourself or in someone you care about — is a critical step toward getting help before the situation worsens.

Warning Signs — Ask Yourself Honestly
Do you bet more money than you originally planned, or more than you can comfortably afford to lose?
Have you tried to cut back on your gambling but found it difficult or impossible?
Do you gamble to escape feelings of stress, anxiety, loneliness, or depression?
Have you lied to family members or friends about how much time or money you spend gambling?
Have you borrowed money, sold possessions, or used savings intended for other purposes to fund gambling?
Do you find yourself chasing losses — placing additional bets to try to recover money you have already lost?
Has gambling caused arguments with your partner, family, or employer?
Do you feel restless or irritable when you are not gambling, or when you try to stop?

If you answered "yes" to two or more of the questions above, it may be a sign that gambling is beginning to cause harm in your life. This does not mean you are a bad person — it means you may benefit from support. ctg888 encourages you to use the tools available on our platform and to reach out to a support organisation. Help is available, free of charge, and in confidence.

Recognising a potential problem is a sign of strength, not weakness. ctg888 is proud to support players who take the initiative to manage their gambling behaviour. Our support team can activate protective tools on your account within minutes — no waiting period required.

3. Deposit & Wager Limits

One of the most effective tools for maintaining control over your gambling expenditure is the use of deposit and wager limits. ctg888 allows every registered player to set voluntary financial limits on their account at any time, free of charge. These limits are designed to keep your spending within boundaries that you have personally defined, so that gambling remains a budgeted entertainment activity rather than a financial burden.

Daily deposit limit

Set a maximum amount in Bangladeshi Taka (৳) that you are permitted to deposit into your ctg888 account within any single 24-hour period. For example, setting a daily limit of ৳2,000 means that regardless of how many deposit attempts you make, your total deposits within that day will not exceed ৳2,000.

Weekly deposit limit

Set a maximum total deposit amount across a rolling seven-day period. This is useful for players who prefer to budget on a weekly basis, particularly when receiving weekly wages or payments via bKash or Nagad.

Monthly deposit limit

Set a maximum total deposit amount across a rolling thirty-day period. Monthly limits are well-suited to players who receive monthly salaries and wish to allocate a fixed entertainment budget to ctg888 each month.

Single wager limit

Set a maximum stake for any single bet or casino game round. This prevents impulsive high-stakes wagers placed in the heat of the moment — for example, chasing a loss with an unusually large single bet.

How limit changes work: Reductions to deposit or wager limits take effect immediately. Increases to existing limits are subject to a mandatory 48-hour cooling-off period before the higher limit becomes active. This asymmetry is intentional — it makes it easy to reduce your spending instantly, while preventing impulsive decisions to increase limits during a gambling session.

To set or adjust your deposit and wager limits, log in to your ctg888 account and navigate to Account Settings > Responsible Gaming > Limit Management. If you require assistance, our 24/7 support team can help you configure limits via live chat or by emailing [email protected].

4. Time-Out & Cooling-Off

Sometimes the most helpful thing a player can do is simply step away from gambling for a defined period. ctg888 offers a time-out feature that allows you to temporarily suspend all real-money activity on your account for a chosen duration. During a time-out period, you will not be able to deposit funds, place bets, or play casino games on ctg888.

Available time-out durations

  • 24-hour time-out: A single day's break — useful if you have had an unexpectedly long or costly session and want to clear your head before returning.
  • 7-day time-out: A one-week break — suitable for players who feel they are gambling more frequently than planned or spending more than intended over the course of a week.
  • 30-day time-out: A month-long break — recommended if you have noticed any of the warning signs described in the problem gambling section above, or if a family member has expressed concern.
  • 90-day time-out: A three-month break — a substantial pause that gives you time to reassess your relationship with gambling and seek external support if needed.

Time-out periods begin immediately upon activation and cannot be cancelled early. Once the selected duration has expired, your account will return to normal active status. ctg888 will not send promotional communications to players during an active time-out period — all marketing emails and bonus notifications are automatically suppressed.

Session time reminders

In addition to time-out features, ctg888 offers session duration reminders. You can configure a reminder notification to appear after a set period of continuous gambling — for example, after 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours of play. This helps you stay aware of how long you have been gambling and makes it easier to take regular breaks, which research consistently shows reduces impulsive decision-making.

To activate a time-out, log in to your ctg888 account and go to Account Settings > Responsible Gaming > Time-Out, or contact our 24/7 support team who can activate a time-out on your behalf within minutes. Time-out requests submitted via email to [email protected] are processed within one hour, around the clock.

5. Self-Exclusion Programme

Self-exclusion is the strongest player protection tool available on ctg888. It is designed for players who believe that their gambling has become, or is at risk of becoming, a serious problem and who wish to permanently or long-term exclude themselves from the ctg888 platform. ctg888 treats self-exclusion requests with the highest level of seriousness and processes them without any obstacle, delay, or attempt to dissuade the player from proceeding.

How self-exclusion works

When you request self-exclusion from ctg888, the following actions are taken immediately:

  • Your ctg888 account is closed and locked against all real-money activity.
  • You are removed from all ctg888 marketing communications — promotional emails, SMS messages, and push notifications cease immediately.
  • Any pending withdrawals of your available balance will be processed and returned to your bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay wallet within the standard withdrawal timeframe.
  • Active bonuses and loyalty points that have not been converted to withdrawable funds are forfeited.
  • Your personal data is retained in accordance with ctg888's Privacy Policy and applicable legal obligations, but is flagged to prevent account reactivation.

Self-exclusion durations

  • 6-month self-exclusion: A six-month closure — the minimum self-exclusion period available at ctg888.
  • 1-year self-exclusion: A twelve-month closure.
  • 3-year self-exclusion: A three-year closure — recommended for players who have experienced significant gambling-related harm.
  • Permanent self-exclusion: A lifetime ban from ctg888 — this option is irreversible and cannot be lifted under any circumstances, even after the passage of time.
Self-exclusion is binding. During an active self-exclusion period, ctg888 will not reactivate your account regardless of any requests to do so. If you attempt to register a new account during your self-exclusion period, ctg888 will identify and close that account as soon as it is detected. We encourage you to also self-exclude from any other gambling platforms you use.

How to request self-exclusion

To initiate self-exclusion from ctg888, you may use any of the following channels:

  • In your account: Navigate to Account Settings > Responsible Gaming > Self-Exclusion and follow the on-screen instructions.
  • Live Chat: Contact our 24/7 support team via live chat and request self-exclusion. The agent will process your request within the same conversation — no referral to another team or callback required.
  • Email: Send a self-exclusion request to [email protected] with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request". Include your registered username, registered email address, and your preferred exclusion duration. Your account will be closed within one hour of the email being received.
