Responsible Gaming

Play Smart. Stay in Control.

fb168 believes that betting should be an enjoyable form of entertainment — not a source of financial stress or personal harm. We provide every Member with a full suite of responsible gaming tools, clear self-assessment guidance, and direct access to professional support. This page explains those tools and how to use them.

21+

fb168 is strictly for adults aged 21 and over. Age verification is conducted on every account before deposits or withdrawals are permitted. We take this responsibility seriously.

Six Tools to Keep You in Control

All responsible gaming tools are available free of charge to every verified fb168 Member. Contact live chat or email [email protected] to activate any of the following features on your account.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap in IDR. Once your chosen limit is reached, the platform will not accept further deposits until the period resets. Limits take effect immediately when lowered, and require a 7-day cooling period when raised — ensuring you can never impulsively increase your cap in the heat of the moment.

Session Time Limits

Define the maximum number of hours you wish to spend on the fb168 Platform in any single day. When your time limit is reached, you will be automatically logged out and shown a responsible gaming reminder. You can also enable optional session-length alerts at 30, 60, or 90-minute intervals while you play.

Time-Out Periods

If you feel you need a short break from betting, you can activate a time-out of 24 hours, 72 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out your account is suspended — you cannot log in, deposit, place bets, or claim bonuses. Your account balance is fully preserved and remains accessible once the period ends.

Self-Exclusion

For Members who need a longer break or wish to stop gambling entirely, fb168 offers self-exclusion periods of 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanent closure. Self-exclusion is irrevocable for the chosen duration — it cannot be shortened or reversed. All marketing communications are stopped immediately upon activation.

Loss Limits

In addition to deposit limits, fb168 allows you to set a maximum net loss threshold per day, week, or month. Once your loss limit is reached, you will not be able to place further wagers until the period resets. This tool is especially useful for slots and live casino play where losses can accumulate quickly.

Reality Check Reminders

Enable on-screen pop-up reminders at regular intervals — every 15, 30, or 60 minutes — that show you how long your current session has lasted, your net win/loss for the session, and a prompt asking whether you want to continue. These nudges help you maintain perspective while you play.

Is Gambling Still Fun for You?

Gambling should remain a leisure activity, not a coping mechanism or a financial strategy. The following questions are drawn from established problem gambling screening frameworks. Answer them honestly — your responses are private and not recorded by fb168.

If you answer yes to three or more of these questions, we strongly recommend activating a time-out or self-exclusion and reaching out to a support counsellor.

Seek support if needed. Answering yes to several of these questions is not a sign of weakness — it is an early indicator that professional support could be helpful. fb168's support team is available 24/7 and can connect you with resources in Indonesia.
1

Have you ever gambled with money that was intended for essential expenses such as rent, food, or utility bills?

2

Have you found yourself spending more time or money gambling than you originally planned?

3

Have you felt irritable, anxious, or restless when you tried to reduce or stop gambling?

4

Have you returned to gambling after a loss with the intention of winning back money you have lost — sometimes called "chasing losses"?

5

Have you hidden your gambling activity or the amount of money you have spent gambling from friends or family members?

6

Has gambling caused significant arguments, stress, or financial difficulties in your personal or professional relationships?

7

Have you borrowed money, sold assets, or considered illegal means in order to fund gambling activity?

8

Do you find it difficult to stop gambling once you have started, even when you intended to play for only a short time?

Understanding Problem Gambling

Problem gambling is defined as gambling behaviour that disrupts personal, professional, or financial wellbeing. It exists on a spectrum — from slightly excessive recreational betting all the way to a compulsive disorder that affects every area of a person's life. Like all forms of addictive behaviour, it tends to develop gradually, and many people do not recognise the warning signs until the consequences have already become serious.

At fb168, we monitor betting patterns across all products — from sportsbook markets on BRI Liga 1 and the Champions League, to live casino tables and slot sessions — and we may proactively reach out to Members whose activity shows indicators associated with problem gambling, such as significantly increased session lengths, rapid loss-chasing deposit patterns, or repeated attempts to override deposit limits. This is not surveillance — it is a genuine duty of care that fb168 takes seriously as part of its operating licence obligations.

Remember: Every game on fb168 — whether it is a slot title from Pragmatic Play, a live dealer table from Evolution Gaming, or a virtual sports market — is governed by a random number generator (RNG) or a provably fair algorithm. There is no betting system, strategy, or pattern of play that can guarantee a profit over time. The house edge is a mathematical certainty, and chasing losses will statistically make the situation worse, not better.

Why Age Verification Matters

fb168 enforces a strict 21+ age requirement for all Members. This is not simply a regulatory checkbox — it reflects a genuine commitment to protecting young adults from the financial and psychological harm that gambling can cause during formative years. Every account undergoes age and identity verification via our KYC process before any deposit or withdrawal is permitted. Accounts where age verification cannot be completed are suspended until the required documentation is provided.

If you are a parent or guardian and suspect that a minor is accessing gambling platforms — including fb168 — using your device, your payment methods, or a falsified identity, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. We will take swift action to close the account, return any funds, and delete associated personal data.

How to Use Parental Controls

fb168 strongly recommends that households with minors install independent parental control software on shared devices. Tools such as Net Nanny, Kaspersky Safe Kids, and similar applications can block access to gambling websites at the device or network level, providing an additional layer of protection that operates independently of the fb168 platform itself. These tools are particularly relevant for Indonesian families in Jakarta, Surabaya, Bandung, and other cities where multi-generational shared device use is common.

Gambling vs. Problem Gambling: Know the Difference

Responsible, recreational gambling is characterised by a fixed entertainment budget set aside before play begins, clear time limits, and the psychological acceptance that losses are the cost of entertainment — not money to be recovered. Problem gambling, by contrast, is characterised by loss-chasing, preoccupation with the next bet, concealment from loved ones, and continued play despite clear negative consequences.

fb168 encourages every Member to apply the following principles before each session:

  • Decide your maximum spend before you start, and treat it as the price of entertainment — not an investment.
  • Set a session time limit in your fb168 account settings and stick to it.
  • Never gamble when you are emotionally distressed, under the influence of substances, or under financial pressure.
  • Take regular breaks — the fb168 reality check reminder tool can help you do this automatically.
  • Accept that losses are part of the game. If you find yourself thinking about recovering losses, log out and take a break.
  • Keep gambling separate from your daily finances. Use a dedicated e-wallet (OVO, DANA, GoPay) or a separate bank account (BCA, BRI, BNI, Mandiri) funded with your entertainment budget only.

How to Activate Responsible Gaming Tools on fb168

  • Log in to your fb168 Account

    Access your account via the fb168 Login page using your registered username and password. Ensure two-factor authentication (2FA) is enabled for added security.

    Choose from deposit limits, session time limits, loss limits, reality check reminders, time-out periods, or self-exclusion. Each tool has a dedicated toggle and configuration panel.

  • Confirm via SMS OTP

    All responsible gaming tool activations require confirmation via a one-time password sent to your registered Indonesian mobile number, ensuring the change is authorised by you.

  • Contact Support if You Need Help

    If you are unable to activate a tool yourself, or if you wish to request self-exclusion urgently, contact fb168 support via live chat or email ([email protected]) and an agent will action it on your behalf immediately.

Our Commitment to Responsible Marketing

fb168 does not direct promotional communications — including bonus offers, free bet promotions, and seasonal campaigns tied to events like Idul Fitri, Ramadan, or Indonesian Independence Day — at Members who have active deposit limits, time-out periods, or self-exclusion. Marketing preferences can be managed in full from your Account Settings at any time, including complete opt-out from all promotional communications.

fb168 also does not design promotions intended to pressure Members into wagering beyond their means. All bonus wagering requirements are clearly disclosed before a bonus is claimed, and the Terms & Conditions page contains full details of every applicable condition.
