criczo's commitment to responsible gaming

Entertainment should always be enjoyable. criczo is always ready to help you play safely, mindfully and responsibly.

Our responsibility

criczo believes that online gaming is an entertainment experience — not a source of problems. We are committed to creating a safe and transparent environment for players in Bangladesh. Responsible gaming means staying aware of your limits, setting a budget, and never seeing gambling as a solution to financial problems.

Our platform has several built-in tools that help you keep your gaming in check. From setting deposit limits to taking a temporary break or a full self-exclusion — all the controls are in your hands.

If you ever feel that gaming is no longer just entertainment, do not hesitate to reach out through our 24/7 live chat support. Our team speaks Bengali and is ready to help you with complete confidentiality.

Remember: gambling can be addictive. Never play with borrowed money and do not chase losses by placing more bets.

For ages 21 and above only.
To open an account and play on criczo, you must be 21 years of age or older. Age verification is an integral part of our registration process.

Responsible gaming tools

criczo provides these six effective tools to keep your gaming experience safe and enjoyable.

Deposit Limit

You can set a maximum amount you want to deposit per day, week or month. Once set, this limit takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit takes 48 hours to apply, but reducing one is instant.

Bet Limit

Set a maximum amount you are willing to wager over a given period in advance. This keeps you from overspending on impulse and ensures you stay within your budget.

Time-Out

If you feel you need a bit of a rest, take a temporary break — from 24 hours up to a maximum of 6 weeks. During this time your account will not be active and no bets or deposits will be possible.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a longer-term break, choose the self-exclusion option. This can range from 6 months to permanent. Once permanent self-exclusion is activated, it cannot be reversed.

Age Verification (21+)

Only people aged 21 or above can open an account on criczo. Age must be proven with an identity document at the time of registration. Protecting minors is our highest priority.

Reality Check

After you have been playing for an extended period, criczo sends you an automatic notification. Knowing how long you have been playing and how much you have lost helps you make mindful decisions.

Recognising the signs of a problem

If any of the following apply to you, it may be a sign of problem gambling. Being aware in time makes it possible to prevent further issues.

  • A recurring urge to place bigger bets to recover losses.
  • Hiding your gambling from family or friends.
  • Feeling uncomfortable or anxious when trying to stop playing.
  • Losing focus on daily responsibilities, work or studies.
  • A tendency to play with borrowed or saved money.
  • Losing interest in entertainment other than gambling.

  • Do not place bigger bets to chase a loss.
  • Avoid playing when drinking or under mental stress.
  • Spend quality time with family and friends — focus on other forms of entertainment.

Frequently asked questions

Responsible gaming means knowing your limits and playing for fun. It means setting a budget, keeping your play within a set time, and never seeing gambling as a way to recover losses or solve financial problems. criczo runs all its services with this philosophy at the core.

Log in to your account, go to the "Responsible Gaming" or "Account Settings" section, and set your daily, weekly or monthly deposit limit from there. Reducing a limit takes effect immediately, while increasing one requires a 48-hour waiting period. Contact our live chat for any assistance.

No. Activating self-exclusion keeps your account balance safe. You can withdraw your funds directly. For permanent self-exclusion, contact our support team about the process for getting your balance back.

A time-out is a temporary measure — your account is deactivated for up to 6 weeks and then reactivated automatically. Self-exclusion is longer-term — your account can be closed for anywhere from 6 months to permanently. If you are concerned about problem gambling, self-exclusion is the right choice.

Some common signs are: placing larger bets to chase losses, hiding your gambling from family, playing with borrowed money, or feeling uncomfortable when you cannot play. If you notice these signs, contact our live chat right away or activate self-exclusion.
