Our Commitment

Gambling is Entertainment — Not a Financial Strategy

pk71 was built for players who love the thrill of cricket betting, live casino games, and slots. We want every session to be enjoyable — and that means being completely transparent about the risks involved in gambling and giving you the tools to manage your play.

Gambling involves real money and real risk. The outcome of every bet, every spin, and every hand is determined by chance. No strategy, system, or pattern guarantees a win. Over time, the house always holds a mathematical edge — which is why betting should only ever be done with money you can comfortably afford to lose, within a budget you set in advance.

pk71 is accessible only to adults aged 21 years and above. We enforce strict age verification during account registration and KYC review. If you are under 21, you are not permitted to use the pk71 platform under any circumstances.

Age Restriction Notice: pk71 is strictly a 21+ platform. Creating an account on behalf of a minor, or allowing a minor to use your account, is a serious violation of our Terms & Conditions and may result in permanent account closure and forfeiture of all funds.
Healthy Gambling Habits — A Quick Checklist
  • Set a strict budget before you start playing and stick to it
  • Never bet money that is earmarked for rent, food, bills, or essential expenses
  • Treat every loss as the cost of entertainment, not money to be chased
  • Take regular breaks — avoid long uninterrupted sessions
  • Play for fun, not to solve financial problems or relieve stress
  • Keep track of how much time and money you spend on the platform each week
  • Talk openly with family or trusted friends about your gambling habits
  • Use pk71's responsible gaming tools — they are there to help, not punish
Remember: If gambling stops being fun — if it causes anxiety, affects your relationships, or leaves you thinking about it constantly — it is time to step back and seek support. pk71's team is available 24/7 to help you activate any of the protective tools described on this page.

Player Protection Tools

Take Control with pk71's Built-In Safety Tools

pk71 provides a suite of responsible gaming tools that every registered player can activate at any time — directly through their account settings or by contacting our support team. These tools are free, immediate, and confidential.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum deposit amount on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits can be made until the period resets. Lowering a deposit limit takes effect immediately; increasing it requires a mandatory cooling-off period of 48 hours to prevent impulsive decisions made in the heat of the moment.

Session Time Limits

Define the maximum length of a single gaming session. When your limit is reached, you will receive an alert and, if you choose, be automatically logged out. Time limits help prevent the "just one more spin" effect that can extend sessions far beyond what you originally intended.

Time-Out / Cool-Off Period

Request a temporary break from pk71 ranging from 24 hours to 6 weeks. During a time-out period, you cannot log in, place bets, or make deposits. This tool is ideal if you feel you need a short break to reassess your habits without committing to long-term exclusion.

Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is a formal, longer-term tool that suspends your pk71 account for a minimum of 6 months and up to 5 years. Once activated, self-exclusion cannot be reversed during the selected period — not even if you change your mind. At the end of the exclusion period, re-activation requires a deliberate request and a mandatory reflection period.

Loss Limits

Cap the maximum amount you are willing to lose over a defined period. When your net loss reaches the threshold, your account is automatically restricted from further betting until the period resets. Loss limits are one of the most effective tools for staying within budget and avoiding chasing losses.

Marketing Opt-Out

If you find that promotional emails, SMS bonus alerts, or push notifications tempt you to play more than you intend, you can opt out of all marketing communications at any time via your account settings. Opting out does not affect essential account notifications such as deposit confirmations and security alerts.

How to Activate These Tools: Log in to your pk71 account and navigate to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming. All six tools listed above are available in that section. Alternatively, contact our support team via live chat or email at [email protected] with the subject line "Responsible Gaming Request" and a team member will apply the restriction to your account immediately — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including Bangladesh public holidays.

Know the Warning Signs

Recognising Problem Gambling Behaviour

Problem gambling can develop gradually and is not always easy to recognise in yourself. These are common warning signs that suggest gambling may be becoming harmful. If you identify with three or more of the following, we strongly encourage you to contact our support team or reach out to a professional counselling service.

Chasing Losses

Continuing to bet in an attempt to win back money you have already lost, often with increasingly large stakes.

Inability to Stop

Feeling compelled to keep playing even when you had originally planned to stop, or finding it difficult to walk away mid-session.

Borrowing to Gamble

Borrowing money from friends, family, or financial services in order to fund gambling activity, or using credit for deposits.

Hiding Your Gambling

Concealing the extent of your gambling from family members, partners, or colleagues out of shame or fear of their reaction.

Neglecting Responsibilities

Missing work, neglecting family obligations, or withdrawing from social activities in order to spend more time gambling.

Mood Dependent on Results

Experiencing strong emotional swings — elation after a win, severe anxiety or depression after a loss — that affect your daily life.

Escalating Stakes

Needing to bet progressively larger amounts to achieve the same level of excitement, a sign of tolerance similar to substance dependency.

Financial Hardship

Gambling has led to overdue bills, depleted savings, unpaid rent, or other financial difficulties that affect your household.

Preoccupation with Gambling

Spending a significant amount of time thinking about gambling — planning the next session, reliving past wins, or calculating odds — when not actively playing.

Self-Assessment

Are You Gambling Responsibly?

Have you ever spent more money on gambling than you originally planned in a single session?
Have you ever borrowed money, sold possessions, or used bill money to fund gambling activity?
Have you tried to cut back on gambling but found it difficult or impossible to do so?
Do you feel restless, irritable, or anxious when you are unable to gamble for a period of time?
Has gambling ever caused conflict with family members, close friends, or your employer?
Do you find yourself thinking about gambling during work, study, or other daily activities?
After a losing session, do you feel a strong urge to return immediately to win your money back?
Have you ever concealed the amount of time or money you spend on gambling from someone close to you?
If you answered "yes" to two or more questions: Please consider activating a deposit limit, time-out, or self-exclusion on your pk71 account. You are also welcome to contact our support team at [email protected] — we will listen without judgement and help you identify the best protective measures for your situation.

Protecting Minors

Keeping Under-21s Away from the Platform

pk71 enforces a strict minimum age requirement of 21 years for all registered players. Age verification is conducted during the KYC process, and accounts found to belong to or to have been used by persons under 21 are permanently closed, with all balances forfeited in accordance with our Terms & Conditions.

If you share a device with younger family members in your household — whether in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, or anywhere else in Bangladesh — we strongly recommend taking the following steps to prevent accidental or unauthorised access to pk71.

  • Never save your pk71 login credentials in shared browsers
  • Use a strong, unique password that family members cannot guess
  • Enable two-factor authentication on your pk71 account
  • Log out of pk71 after every session on a shared device
  • Use parental control software to block access to pk71.io on family devices
  • Keep your phone or device locked when not in use
Age Restriction Policy
Strictly 21+ Only

pk71 is an adult online entertainment platform. Access is restricted exclusively to individuals who are 21 years of age or older at the time of registration. We do not knowingly accept registrations from minors and we employ automated and manual verification processes to enforce this policy.

If you are a parent or guardian and suspect that a person under 21 in your household has opened or accessed a pk71 account, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. We will investigate and take appropriate action without delay.

Adults are encouraged to use filtering software to block gambling websites at the device and network level. Parental control tools available for devices commonly used in Bangladesh include built-in family link features on Android devices, screen time controls on iOS, and third-party filtering applications.
