Features Responsible Gaming at 198kis

Daily & Monthly Deposit Limits
Set a maximum daily, weekly, or monthly deposit amount directly from your account settings. Once the limit is set, the 198kis system will enforce it automatically without any manual intervention.
Session Time Limit
Control how long you play each session. When the time limit is reached, the system will alert you and automatically end the session so you do not lose track of time while playing.
Temporary Self-Exclusion
If you feel you need a break, use the self-exclusion feature to block access to your account for 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days or until you are ready to return to healthy play.
Permanent Account Closure
Users who choose to stop playing entirely may apply for permanent account closure. Once processed, the account cannot be reopened and all access will be permanently revoked.
Loss Limit
Set the maximum loss amount you are willing to absorb within a given period. The 198kis system will block further play once your set loss limit is reached, protecting your finances.
Strict Age Verification
198kis enforces an age verification process during registration. Individuals under 18 years of age are strictly prohibited from opening an account or accessing any games on our platform under any circumstances.

What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means enjoying online gaming entertainment while staying aware of the risks involved, spending within your means, and maintaining a healthy balance between gaming and everyday life.

At 198kis, we believe every user deserves an enjoyable gaming experience free from pressure or distress. Gaming is a form of entertainment, not a source of income or a solution to financial problems. Understanding this difference is the first step toward a healthy gaming experience.

Our commitment to responsible gaming goes beyond regulatory compliance. It is a core value embedded in the way we build our products, design our interface and deliver customer support to every Malaysian user we care about.

Core Principles: Play for enjoyment, not to relieve stress or chase losses. Every gaming decision should be made with a clear head and free from pressure.

As a platform trusted by hundreds of thousands of users across Malaysia, 198kis takes this responsibility very seriously. We continuously update our tools and policies in line with the latest developments in responsible gambling at the global industry level.

Signs of Problem Gaming

It is important to recognise the early signs of problem gaming, whether in yourself or someone close to you. The earlier it is detected, the easier it is to take effective steps toward recovery.

If you identify with three or more of the following signs, we encourage you to contact 198kis support or seek professional help immediately.
Emotional & Behavioural Signs
  • Feeling restless or irritable when not playing
  • Hiding gaming activity from family
  • Constantly thinking about ways to get money to play
  • Continuing to play even after intending to stop
  • Lying about the amount of money spent
Financial & Social Signs
  • Borrowing money or selling assets to keep playing
  • Neglecting bills, rent, or basic family needs
  • Chasing losses by betting more
  • Neglecting work, studies, or daily responsibilities
  • Strained relationships with loved ones

Guide to Playing Responsibly

Playing responsibly does not mean you cannot have fun. It simply requires a little planning and self-awareness. Here are some practical tips we recommend to all 198kis users:

01

Set a Budget Before Playing

Decide how much you are willing to spend before opening any game. Treat that amount as an entertainment cost, not an investment. Use the 198kis deposit limit feature to enforce this limit automatically.

02

Limit Your Session Time

Decide how long you will play and set a time reminder. Use the 198kis session time limit feature, which will notify you as your limit approaches. Taking regular breaks helps you make clearer decisions.

03

Do Not Chase Your Losses

This is the most dangerous habit in gaming. When you lose, accept it calmly and stop. Betting more to recover losses almost always leads to even greater losses.

04

Do Not Play When Stressed or Emotional

Unstable emotional states such as stress, sadness or anger can impair your judgment. Wait until you feel calm before opening any game to avoid decisions you may later regret.

05

Balance Gaming with Other Activities

Keep online gaming as just a small part of your leisure time. Maintain social connections, hobbies, and healthy daily routines so that gaming stays as entertainment, not an escape.

06

Use the Control Tools Provided

198kis provides a range of control tools such as deposit limits, time limits, loss limits and self-exclusion options. Use these tools proactively, not only after a problem has already occurred.

Self-Check: Is Your Gaming Under Control?

Answer the questions below honestly. If you answer "Yes" to three or more questions, we recommend speaking with a counsellor or contacting the 198kis support team for further guidance.

01
Have you ever played longer or spent more than you originally planned?
02
Have you ever lied to family members or friends about how much time or money you have spent gaming?
03
Do you play to escape from problems, work stress or feelings of discomfort in your life?
04
Have you ever borrowed money, sold belongings or used emergency savings to continue playing?
05
After a big loss, do you feel a strong urge to play again immediately to win back the money?
06
Has your gaming activity affected your relationship with your partner, family or your work performance?
Remember that acknowledging a problem is the most important and most courageous first step. No one has to face this alone. The 198kis team is ready to help you.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Log in to your account and go to "Account Settings", then select "Responsible Gaming". There you can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits. Limits take effect immediately and the system will automatically reject any deposit that exceeds them.

For short-term self-exclusion (24 hours to 7 days), cancellation is not permitted before the period expires, to ensure the effectiveness of this protective measure. For long-term self-exclusion (30 days or more), a mandatory waiting period applies before cancellation can be processed. This is intentionally designed to help you.

Before your account is permanently closed, any remaining balance will be processed for withdrawal to your registered bank account. This process takes 3 to 5 business days. Please ensure your bank details are current and accurate before submitting a closure request.
