Gaming at 89atm is meant to be entertainment — a bit of thrill on a PSL match day, some fun on the slots after work, or a relaxed fishing game session on a Sunday afternoon. For the vast majority of our players in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and across Pakistan, it stays exactly that. But 89atm also recognises that for some people, gambling can stop being fun and start causing harm. This page outlines everything 89atm does to keep gaming safe — and what tools are in your hands to stay in control.
Responsible gaming is the principle that gambling should always remain a form of entertainment — something done within your means, on your own terms, with full awareness of the risks involved. At 89atm, responsible gaming is not a tick-box exercise. It is built into the platform at every level, from how accounts are verified to the tools available in your account dashboard.
We want every player from Faisalabad betting on a T20 match to a player in Lahore spinning the slots on a Friday evening to make informed, conscious choices about how much time and money they spend on 89atm. That means being honest about what gambling is — a form of paid entertainment with a statistical house edge — and making sure players never spend more than they can comfortably afford to lose.
89atm operates under international gaming licence oversight. Our responsible gaming framework is shaped by the requirements of that licence and reflects globally recognised standards for player protection, including mandatory age verification, self-exclusion programmes, and player activity monitoring.
Golden Rule: Gambling should never be used as a way to make money, recover losses, or solve financial problems. If it ever starts to feel that way, the tools on this page are here for you.
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit caps directly from your 89atm account settings. Once set, limits can only be reduced immediately — increases require a 7-day cooling-off period.
Enable timed session reminders that pop up at intervals you choose — 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours — to remind you how long you have been playing and how much you have spent.
Take a short break from 89atm for 24 hours, 48 hours, or up to 30 days without fully closing your account. Your account resumes automatically once the period ends.
Request a self-exclusion of 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanent closure. During exclusion, your account is locked and you will be removed from all marketing communications.
89atm puts control firmly in your hands. Every tool below is available directly from your account dashboard and can be activated instantly — no waiting, no admin delays.
Choose a maximum deposit amount per day, per week, or per calendar month. The limit applies across all payment methods — JazzCash, EasyPaisa, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank, and Raast — so there is no way around it by switching channels. Reducing a limit takes effect immediately. Requesting an increase triggers a mandatory 7-day review window so you have time to reconsider.
Instant ActivationSet a maximum session duration per day. Once your session limit is reached, 89atm will automatically log you out and prevent re-login until the following calendar day. This is particularly useful if you find yourself losing track of time during late-night cricket betting sessions or extended slot play.
Daily ResetTimed on-screen prompts appear at regular intervals during your gaming session, displaying how long you have been playing, your net win or loss for the session, and a prompt to continue or exit. Reminders can be set from every 15 minutes up to every 2 hours and are available across all 89atm game categories including cricket, slots, live casino, and fishing games.
Stay AwareNeed a breather without permanently closing your account? A cool-off period lets you pause your 89atm account for a set duration — 1 day, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. Your account balance is preserved and the account automatically reopens at the end of the period unless you extend or upgrade to self-exclusion.
Up to 30 DaysSelf-exclusion is a more serious commitment for players who feel they need a longer or indefinite break from gambling. 89atm offers self-exclusion periods of 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanent closure. Once activated, the exclusion cannot be reversed before the chosen period expires. You are also removed from all promotional emails and SMS communications for the duration. This is the most powerful responsible gaming tool available on 89atm.
6 Months to PermanentAt any time you can request a full activity statement from your 89atm account dashboard or via customer support. The statement shows your complete deposit, withdrawal, betting, and gaming history over any specified period, with a running net balance. Reviewing your activity statement regularly is one of the simplest ways to stay honest with yourself about your gambling habits.
Full History AccessProblem gambling can develop gradually and is often hard to recognise from the inside. Below are some of the most common warning signs that gambling may be moving from entertainment to a problem. Be honest with yourself — and remember that recognising a sign is the first step toward addressing it.
Chasing Losses: Continuing to gamble in an attempt to win back money that has already been lost — increasing bet sizes to "get even" faster.
Losing Track of Time: Regularly spending far longer on 89atm than you intended, or gambling when you planned to do something else.
Gambling Beyond Your Means: Using money reserved for bills, rent, groceries, or family expenses in Pakistan to fund gambling sessions.
Hiding Your Gambling: Concealing the amount you gamble or the losses you have incurred from family members or close friends.
Gambling to Cope: Using gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety, depression, or problems at home or at work rather than as recreation.
Inability to Stop: Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when you try to cut down or stop gambling, or making repeated unsuccessful attempts to do so.
Answer the questions below honestly. If you answer "Yes" to two or more, we strongly encourage you to use 89atm's self-exclusion tool or speak to a support professional.
Have you ever gambled with money that you could not afford to lose — money earmarked for rent, groceries, school fees, or other essential expenses?
Have you tried to win back money lost gambling on a previous occasion, placing larger bets than usual to recover losses quickly?
Have you ever lied to family members, friends, or colleagues in Pakistan about how much time or money you spend on gambling?
Has gambling caused you to neglect work, studies, family responsibilities, or social commitments in the past 12 months?
Do you feel restless, irritable, or anxious when you are not gambling, or when you try to reduce or stop gambling?
Have you ever borrowed money or sold personal possessions to fund gambling activity?
Do you find yourself thinking about gambling frequently during the day, planning your next session, or reliving past wins and losses?
Two or more "Yes" answers? Please contact 89atm customer support via live chat right now to activate self-exclusion, or reach out to a professional support service. There is no shame in asking for help — it is the responsible thing to do.
Activating self-exclusion on 89atm is straightforward and takes effect immediately. You do not need to explain your reasons, and our support team will handle your request with complete discretion. Follow the steps below to start your self-exclusion.

Important: Once a self-exclusion is activated, 89atm cannot reverse it before the chosen period has fully elapsed, even if you request it. This is a deliberate safeguard to protect you.
