Our Responsible Gambling Tool Kit

Every registered Mavibet account includes these tools. None of them cost anything to activate. All of them are effective immediately or within the stated timeframe.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you deposit. Reductions take effect immediately. Increases require a 24-hour cooling-off period before they become active — a deliberate friction designed to give you time to reconsider.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum duration for each gambling session. When the limit is reached, the system will end your session automatically. You can also configure session reminders at custom intervals — every 30, 60, or 90 minutes.

Self-Exclusion

Exclude yourself from the platform for a defined period — 30, 60, 90, or 180 days — or permanently. During exclusion, your account is inaccessible, no marketing is sent to you, and any re-registration attempts linked to your details are blocked.

Reality Checks

Opt in to receive periodic pop-up notifications during active sessions showing your session duration and current net win/loss position. These prompt you to pause and reflect on your activity before continuing.

Cooling-Off Periods

Take a short break without fully closing your account. Cooling-off periods of 24 hours, 48 hours, or 7 days are available. During this period, login is disabled but your account data and balance are preserved.

Loss Limits

Set a ceiling on how much you are willing to lose within a given period — daily, weekly, or monthly. When the threshold is reached, further real-money play is suspended until the limit period resets. Available from your account dashboard.

How Mavibet Approaches Responsible Play


At Mavibet, responsible gambling is not a legal checkbox. It is a genuine operational commitment that shapes how we design our platform, how we train our support team, and how we respond when a player shows signs of difficulty.

We serve players across Malaysia — in Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Johor Bahru, Shah Alam, and Petaling Jaya — and we take seriously the responsibility that comes with operating in this space. We know that the majority of our players gamble recreationally, wagering amounts they are comfortable losing as part of an evening's entertainment, whether that's live Baccarat, a Liga Super Malaysia betting market, or a few rounds on a slot title. For these players, Mavibet is designed to be enjoyable and fair.

But we also know that a small percentage of players may develop patterns that move beyond recreational play. Problem gambling can affect anyone — regardless of age, income, or experience level. That is why our responsible gambling framework is proactive, not reactive. We monitor account-level patterns as part of our standard operations and may reach out proactively where we observe indicators of concern, including unusual session durations, rapid escalation in deposit amounts, or repeated attempts to access an excluded account.

All responsible gambling tools on the Mavibet platform are free to activate, take effect immediately or within a stated short window, and cannot be blocked or bypassed by Mavibet support. If you ask us to apply a self-exclusion, we will do so — no questions designed to dissuade you, no delay tactics.

Deposit & Loss Limit Controls


Setting a deposit or loss limit is the single most effective tool for keeping gambling within a budget you are comfortable with. It removes the decision-making burden in the moment — when emotions or frustration might otherwise lead to spending more than intended.

Mavibet's limit system is designed with a deliberate asymmetry: decreasing a limit (making it more restrictive) takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit (making it less restrictive) requires a 24-hour cooling-off period before it activates. This design choice ensures that impulsive decisions to raise limits in the heat of a session do not immediately override the considered decision you made when you first set the limit.

Recommended Starting Point

If you're unsure what limit to set, a useful guideline is the "entertainment budget" approach: set your monthly deposit limit to an amount you would comfortably spend on other entertainment like dining out or concerts — and would not be stressed about losing entirely. For many Malaysian players, this is in the range of RM150 to RM500 per month.

EXAMPLE: Monthly Deposit Limit — RM500

Deposited This Month RM200 / RM500

40% of limit used — RM300 remaining

Weekly Loss Limit RM80 / RM200

40% of weekly loss limit used this week

Session Time Today 45 min / 2 hrs

1 hour and 15 minutes remaining in today's session

All Limits Enforced by the Platform

When any limit is reached, further deposits, losses, or session time are blocked automatically. Our support team cannot override an active limit on your behalf — this is by design.

Self-Exclusion: When You Need to Stop

Self-exclusion is the most powerful tool we offer. If gambling is no longer enjoyable, or if you feel it is causing financial or emotional harm, self-exclusion lets you step away completely — with the platform enforcing that decision so you don't have to.

30 Days

Short-term break. Suitable if you want to pause during a stressful period or after a run of significant losses.

60 or 90 Days

Medium-term exclusion. Gives you space to reflect and seek support without the pressure of a permanent decision.

180 Days

Six-month break. Strongly recommended for players who feel their gambling has been consistently out of control.

Permanent

Permanent account closure. Cannot be reversed. Recommended if you decide to stop gambling indefinitely. All data retained per legal obligations.

What Happens During Exclusion
  • Your account login is immediately disabled
  • All marketing communications from Mavibet are suppressed for the duration
  • Any attempt to create a new Mavibet account using your registered details, IP address, or payment methods will be flagged and blocked
  • Your account balance is preserved and will be returned upon verified request after exclusion ends (or immediately for permanent exclusion)
  • You will not be contacted by Mavibet to reverse or shorten the exclusion period
Activating Self-Exclusion

You can activate self-exclusion through any of the following channels:

  • Account Dashboard: Settings → Responsible Gambling → Self-Exclusion → Choose period → Confirm
  • Live Chat: Tell our 24/7 support team you want to self-exclude and specify the period. It will be activated on the same call.
  • Email: Send a written request to [email protected] with the subject "Self-Exclusion Request" and your preferred period.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling


Problem gambling doesn't always look dramatic from the outside. Often it develops gradually, and many players don't recognise the signs in themselves until significant harm has already occurred. Understanding the warning signs is the first step.

If you recognise yourself in several of the signs listed here, please consider using one of Mavibet's self-management tools or reaching out to one of the support resources listed further down this page. There is no shame in asking for help — and doing so early makes a real difference.

Self-Assessment

The questions in the self-assessment section below can help you reflect on your gambling behaviour. There are no "pass" or "fail" answers — only honest reflection. Be truthful with yourself.

Chasing Losses

Placing bigger bets or making additional deposits specifically to recover money lost in a previous session. This is one of the most consistent indicators of problem gambling.

Gambling with Money You Cannot Afford to Lose

Using funds intended for rent, groceries, bills, or other essential expenses to gamble. Borrowing money specifically for gambling purposes.

Being Unable to Stop or Cut Down

Repeatedly trying to reduce or stop gambling, but finding yourself unable to follow through. Feeling restless or irritable when attempting to cut down.

Preoccupation with Gambling

Spending significant time thinking about gambling — planning future sessions, replaying past ones, or researching strategies — even when not actively gambling.

Concealment and Dishonesty

Hiding gambling activity from family, friends, or a partner. Lying about the amount spent or the frequency of gambling sessions.

Gambling to Escape or Cope

Using gambling as a way to deal with stress, anxiety, loneliness, depression, or other difficult emotions. Feeling that gambling is the only activity that provides relief or distraction.

Self-Assessment Questions

Ask yourself the following questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to three or more, we encourage you to consider activating a self-exclusion or cooling-off period, or speaking to a support resource.

Have you ever gambled with money you needed for something else — rent, food, bills, or savings?
Have you ever returned to gambling after losing, with the goal of winning back what you lost?
Have you ever lied to a family member, friend, or partner about how much you have been gambling or how much money was involved?
Have you felt restless, irritable, or anxious when you tried to cut down or stop gambling?
Has gambling ever caused significant arguments, stress, or problems in your relationships or at work?
Have you ever borrowed money — from anyone — specifically to fund gambling sessions?
Do you find yourself thinking about gambling frequently throughout the day, even when you're not playing?
Have you ever gambled as a way to escape from problems, stress, anxiety, or difficult emotions?
Three or More "Yes" Answers

If you answered "yes" to three or more of these questions, your gambling behaviour may be moving beyond recreational play. We strongly encourage you to activate a cooling-off period or self-exclusion via your Mavibet account settings, or to reach out to one of the support organisations listed below. Speaking to someone is a sign of strength, not weakness.

Under-Age Protection & 21+ Policy


The Mavibet platform is strictly available to individuals aged 21 years and above. This is not simply a terms-and-conditions clause — it is actively enforced at multiple stages of the user journey.

At account registration, users are required to confirm their date of birth. Before processing any withdrawal, a full KYC identity verification is required, which includes submission and review of a valid Malaysian identity card (MyKad), passport, or driver's licence. Any account where the verified age is found to be below 21 is closed immediately, all transactions reversed where possible, and the matter may be reported to relevant authorities.

If you are the parent or guardian of a minor who may have accessed this platform without authorisation, please contact our support team immediately at [email protected]. We will investigate and act swiftly.

Zero Tolerance — Underage Gambling

Mavibet applies a zero-tolerance approach to underage gambling. Any person found to have registered using false age information will have their account permanently closed, funds forfeited, and the incident reported as appropriate. Protecting minors from gambling harm is a non-negotiable priority.

21+

Minimum age for all Mavibet users

KYC identity check required before first withdrawal

Age verification at registration and withdrawal stages

Immediate account closure if underage access detected

Parental Controls Recommendation

If you share a device or home network with individuals under 21, we recommend using parental control software to restrict access to gambling websites. Many such solutions are available for Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS devices and can be configured to block access to online gaming platforms at the network or device level.

Stay in Control, Enjoy the Game

Gambling at Mavibet is designed to be enjoyable within limits you are comfortable with. If you want to review your account limits, take a break, or simply learn more about how our platform works, our team is available 24/7.

For players aged 21 and above only. Gambling involves financial risk. Never gamble more than you can afford to lose.
