Important reminder

Betting is for adults aged 18 and over only. It's a form of entertainment — not a source of income. If you feel betting is having a negative impact on your life, contact support today.

What responsible betting actually means

Many people assume responsible gaming means betting less. It doesn't. Responsible betting means playing within your means, within set limits, and purely for entertainment. Betting is great as a hobby — the problems start when it becomes a necessity.

Kirkaya believes a healthy bettor is someone who can smile after a loss and stay levelheaded after a win. We actively want to help you build that mindset.

Online betting is relatively new in Bangladesh, and many first-time bettors aren't sure where to draw the line. That's exactly why Kirkaya encourages all members to read through this page.

You don't chase losses by placing more bets.

Never bet with borrowed money or funds set aside for emergencies.

Why Responsible Betting Matters

How to Protect Both Your Entertainment and Financial Wellbeing

Financial Protection

Betting without limits can quickly lead to financial trouble. Setting a budget means no regrets at the end of the month — and your entertainment stays genuinely enjoyable.

Financial Wellbeing
Family Relationships

Excessive betting puts a strain on family relationships. Playing responsibly keeps those bonds strong and gives your loved ones nothing to worry about.

Family Life
Peace of mind

Not feeling pressured after a loss is a hallmark of responsible betting. Keeping it at an entertainment level means betting relieves stress — it doesn't create it.

Mental Health

Warning Signs – When It's Time to Stop

Ask yourself — do any of the following sound familiar?

You're placing more bets to quickly recover money you've lost.
You feel restless or irritable when you're not betting.
You're skipping work or studies to spend time betting.
You're hiding your betting from family or friends.
You're betting with borrowed money or emergency funds.
Your bet amounts have been gradually climbing well beyond what they used to be.
You feel angry, frustrated, or deeply upset after a loss.

If two or more of the above apply to you, reach out to kirkaya support today. We won't judge — we're just here to help.

Take the Self-Assessment Test

Be honest with yourself about your betting habits. Answer the questions below:

1
Did you bet more last month than you originally planned?
2
Are you able to enjoy other activities outside of betting?
3
Has your betting budget affected your household's essential expenses?
4
Do you feel you can stop betting on your own?

How to activate self-exclusion

If you feel like you need a break, self-exclusion is the most effective option. You can activate it in just a few minutes.

1
Log in to your account

Log in to kirkaya.net or open the mobile app, then tap the profile icon.

2
Open Settings

Go to "Settings" from your profile menu.

3
Responsible Gaming Section

Select the "Responsible Gaming" option.

4
Choose a time period

Choose from 6 months, 1 year, or permanent — whichever suits your needs — and confirm.

5
Instant Effect

Your account will be closed immediately upon confirmation and cannot be reopened before the selected period ends.

While self-exclusion is active, kirkaya will not send you any promotional messages. This is entirely for your protection.

Tips for setting your deposit limit

Setting a proper budget is the simplest step toward responsible betting.

Steps to Set Your Budget
A
Calculate Your Monthly Income

Subtract all essential expenses from your total monthly income.

B
Set aside an entertainment budget

From the remaining amount, decide how much you're comfortable spending on entertainment — movies, dining out, betting, and so on.

g
Set Your Betting Allocation

Allocate no more than 20–30% of your entertainment budget to betting — and only an amount you can afford to lose entirely without it affecting your daily life.

D
Enter Your Limit in the System

Enter this amount as your deposit limit in kirkaya settings. After that, there's nothing left to second-guess.

Tip: Set your limits at the start of the month — ideally, you won't need to change them mid-month.

FAQ

Common questions about betting

Go to the Live Betting section on Kirkaya and you'll see real-time scores for all ongoing matches. On the website, select "Live" from the top menu; on the app, tap the "Live" icon in the bottom navigation bar. From there you can track the current score, the over in play, cards, substitutions, and more. Cricket matches include ball-by-ball updates, while football shows minute-by-minute events. Tap on any specific match to view detailed information, odds movements, and betting history all in one place. Pre-match and live data are also available on the analysis pages.

Kirkaya uses decimal odds — and they're easy to understand. The simple rule: multiply your stake by the odds to get your total return (including your original bet). Example: you bet ৳100 at odds of 2.50. If you win, you get ৳100 × 2.50 = ৳250 (that's ৳150 profit plus your ৳100 stake back). At odds of 1.85, a win returns ৳185, giving you ৳85 profit. General rule: the higher the odds, the lower the chance of winning — but the bigger the reward. Odds of 1.3 indicate a favorite — more likely to win, but lower profit. Odds of 4.0 indicate an underdog — less likely to win, but a solid payout if they do. Each match's analysis page includes a detailed breakdown of the odds.
