Core Principles of Responsible Gaming

Our commitment to safe and enjoyable gaming on Poko App

Budget Limit Setting

You decide how much to spend on gaming. Poko App lets you set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits.

Session Time Limit

Decide in advance how long you will play each day. Poko App's timer feature will automatically alert you when your set time is reached.

Self-Exclusion Feature

If you feel you need a break, Poko App offers a self-exclusion option. You can choose anything from a 24-hour pause to a permanent account closure.

Setting a Loss Limit

Set a limit in advance on how much you are willing to lose before you stop playing. This is a highly effective responsible gaming measure for reducing financial loss.

Reality Check

At regular intervals, Poko App will show you a summary of your gaming sessions — a clear breakdown of how long you played and how much you won or lost.

Minor Protection

Poko App strictly prohibits access to anyone under 18. Through our identity verification process, we ensure the platform is for adults only.

1 What does responsible play actually mean?

Responsible Gaming means enjoying gaming as a form of entertainment without letting it take over your life. At Poko App, we believe that when played the right way, online gaming can be fun and safe.

Responsible gaming means knowing your limits, sticking to your budget, and not treating gaming as a solution to your problems. Poko App has a few core principles for playing responsibly:

  • Gaming is always for entertainment, not as a source of income.
  • You should not play more in an attempt to win back money you have lost.
  • Avoid playing while under the influence of alcohol or when feeling stressed.
  • Always put family, work, and health ahead of gaming.
  • Never bet more than you can afford to lose.

Poko App is fully committed to responsible gaming practices and helps members build healthy gaming habits.

2 Why is responsible play important?

Online gaming is growing rapidly in Bangladesh. Many people come to platforms like Poko App for entertainment and enjoy a fun experience. However, without awareness, some end up spending more time or money than they intended.

Gaming addiction can affect not just your finances, but also your family relationships, mental health, and professional life. That is why responsible play is something we take very seriously at Poko App.

What you gain by practicing responsible gaming:

  • Reduce your risk of financial loss and keep your spending under control.
  • Gaming stays enjoyable rather than feeling like a burden.
  • Your relationships with family and loved ones will stay healthy.
  • Your mental health will stay protected and anxiety will decrease.
  • Gaming will remain a positive experience over the long term.
Keep in Mind

Winning or losing in gaming is entirely a matter of chance. No strategy or system can guarantee a win. Only play with money that you can afford to lose without it significantly affecting your life.

3 Warning Signs of Gaming Addiction

The warning signs below may indicate that your gaming habits are becoming hard to control. Being honest with yourself is the first step toward responsible play.

6 Tips for Healthy Gaming Habits

Follow these simple tips for a consistently enjoyable experience on Poko App:

Set your budget first: Decide how much BDT you are willing to spend per session before you log in, and stick to that amount.
Take a break: Take at least a 10–15 minute break every hour. Get up, stretch, walk around, and drink some water.
Stay level-headed: Do not play when you are angry, sad, or under stress. Decisions made in an emotional state tend to do more harm than good.
Withdraw your winnings: After a big win, withdraw a portion of your winnings. Putting it all back into play is rarely the smart move.
Keep up other hobbies: Spend time with family, stay active, or pursue other hobbies outside of gaming.
Never gamble with borrowed money: Never use borrowed money — from friends, family, or any other source — to fund your gaming.
Keep reality in check: Gaming outcomes are entirely random. The mindset of "I'm bound to win this time" is a dangerous one.

Caution: Never think of gaming as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. It is purely a form of entertainment.
