Our Policy: mbi123 is fully committed to responsible gaming practices. Our platform is designed not only to deliver the best entertainment, but also to ensure that user well-being is always the top priority above all else.
1. What Is Responsible Gaming?
Responsible gaming refers to the practice of gambling consciously, in a controlled manner, and within one's personal means. It means treating gambling as a form of entertainment — not as a source of income or a way to solve financial problems.
At mbi123, we understand that the majority of our users play purely for fun. That said, we also recognise that a small number of individuals may struggle to control their gambling habits. That is why we invest seriously in responsible gaming tools and support — so help is always available when needed.
The core principles of responsible gaming we practise at mbi123 are straightforward: play within your means, set limits, and stop when you've had enough. This platform is designed to support these principles, not hinder them.
2. Recognise the Signs of Problem Gambling
Recognising the early warning signs is the most important first step. Many people don't realise their gambling habits have shifted from mere entertainment to something more serious. Here are some signs to watch out for:
| Warning Signs | More Details |
|---|---|
| Gambling to cover debts | Using gambling as a way to solve financial problems is a clear red flag |
| Unable to stop even when losing | Continuing to play in hopes of recovering lost money (chasing losses) |
| Lying to family | Hiding gambling activity or the amount of money spent from loved ones |
| Neglecting responsibilities | Gambling begins to interfere with work, family, or more important daily needs |
| Borrowing money to gamble | Using loans, credit cards, or emergency savings to continue gambling |
| Feeling restless when not playing | Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when unable to gamble |
| Increasing wager amounts | Needing to bet with increasingly larger amounts to achieve the same level of excitement |
Important: If you or someone you know shows three or more of the signs above, we encourage you to contact the mbi123 support team or seek professional help. Acknowledging a problem is a sign of strength, not weakness.
3. Control Tools Provided by mbi123
Mbi123 provides a comprehensive set of control tools that you can activate at any time through your account settings. All tools are designed to help you stay fully in control of your gambling activity.
Deposit Limit
You can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits on your account. Once a limit is set, our system will automatically reject any deposit that exceeds it. To increase the limit, a 24-hour waiting period applies as an added safeguard — giving you time to reconsider before making a decision.
Loss Limit
In addition to deposit limits, you can also set a maximum loss limit for a given period. Once this limit is reached, the system will automatically end your session until the limit period expires. This is one of the most effective tools to ensure you don't overspend in a single gaming session.
Session Time Limit
Setting time limits is a practical way to ensure gambling does not take up too much of your daily life. mbi123 allows you to set daily session time limits — and the platform will send a reminder when the limit is nearly reached, then automatically log you out once the limit is hit.
Cool-Off Mode
If you feel the need to step away from the platform for a while, the break mode allows you to suspend access to your account for a set period — from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. During the break period, you will not be able to log in or place any bets. This limit cannot be shortened; it can only end on the date you originally selected.
Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion is a more permanent option for those who feel that gambling has become a serious problem in their lives. When you choose self-exclusion, your account will be fully blocked for a minimum period of 6 months up to a lifetime ban. All account balances will be returned to you, and we will take technical steps to prevent new account registrations using the same information.
How to Activate: All responsible gaming controls are accessible directly through the "Account Settings" → "Responsible Gaming" section on the mbi123 platform. If you need assistance, our support team is available via 24/7 live chat.
4. Self-Assessment – Are You Playing Responsibly?
Take a moment to honestly assess your own gambling habits by answering the following questions. This is not a formal test, but it can help you understand your relationship with gambling.
1. Have you ever gambled more than you planned?
2. Has gambling ever caused problems with family, friends, or at work?
3. Have you ever tried to stop gambling but failed to do so?
4. Have you ever used money meant for daily necessities (rent, bills, food) to gamble?
5. Have you ever felt guilty or stressed after gambling?
If you answered "Often" or "Always" for two or more of the questions above, we recommend speaking with the mbi123 support team or seeking advice from a professional counsellor. Remember — getting help early is far easier than dealing with a problem that has grown.
5. How to Set Limits on Your mbi123 Account
Setting limits on your mbi123 account is straightforward and can be done on your own in under 5 minutes. Follow these steps:
Login to Your mbi123 Account
Enter your username and password on the mbi123 login page. Make sure you are using a secure personal device.
Go to Account Settings
Click the profile icon in the top-right corner of the platform, then select "Account Settings" from the dropdown menu.
Select "Responsible Gaming"
On the Account Settings page, look for a tab or section labelled "Responsible Gaming" or "Account Controls".
Set Your Preferred Limits
Choose the type of limit you want to set — deposit, loss, or time. Enter the limit value and the period (daily/weekly/monthly) that suits you.
Confirm Changes
Click the "Save" button and confirm the changes via email or SMS verification. The limit will take effect immediately.
6. Child and Minor User Protection
Mbi123 has a zero-tolerance policy on underage gambling. Our platform is open only to individuals who are at least 18 years and above, and strict age verification (KYC) is enforced during registration and throughout the withdrawal process.
If you share a device with children or teenagers at home, we encourage you to:
- Always log out of your mbi123 account when not in use
- Using a strong password that is not easy to guess
- Enabling screen lock or PIN on your device
- Using parental control software to block access to gambling sites on shared devices
- Do not save login credentials in the browser on shared devices
If we find any account belonging to an underage individual, it will be closed immediately and all funds will be returned in accordance with established procedures.
7. Practical Tips for Playing Smart
Here are some practical tips we share with all mbi123 users to ensure an enjoyable and responsible gaming experience at all times:
- Set a budget before you play — Decide how much you are willing to spend and stick to it, regardless of the game outcome
- Treat money wagered as the cost of entertainment — Just like buying a movie ticket or dining out, do not expect a financial return
- Do not gamble when stressed or emotional — Decisions made when angry, sad, or stressed are rarely good ones
- Take regular breaks — Stand up, stretch, and step away from the screen for at least 10 minutes every hour
- Do not chase losses — Accepting losses as part of the game is key to staying mentally healthy
- Balance it with other activities — Make sure gambling remains only a small part of your social life and leisure time
- Tell someone you trust — Sharing your gambling habits with a partner or close friend helps keep you accountable
8. Support and Further Assistance
