Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

1998rich believes that online entertainment should bring joy, not stress. As a responsible platform, we are committed to supporting our users in maintaining healthy and controlled playing habits. We provide a range of tools and resources to help you make smart choices every time you log in.

Responsible gaming means understanding that betting and casino games are purely for entertainment — not a source of income or an escape from life’s problems. 1998rich encourages every user to set clear boundaries before starting and to stick to them diligently.

We also ensure all responsible gaming information is easily accessible and clearly presented in Malay, so every member can make informed decisions.

Recognize Risky Behavior Signs

Recognizing early is the best step. Watch out for these signs within yourself.

Playing Beyond Your Means

Using money meant for essentials like rent, bills, or food for gaming is a serious warning sign that needs to be addressed immediately.

Chasing Losses

Repeated attempts to win back lost money by continuing to play—known as "chasing losses"—is a dangerous pattern that can make things worse.

Loss of Time Control

Regularly playing longer than planned, or neglecting family, work, or social responsibilities to keep a session going, are clear signs that time limits have been crossed.

Emotional Changes

Feeling restless, stressed, or easily angered when unable to play, or using games to escape emotional problems, are signs that need attention.

Available Self-Control Tools

1998rich offers several self-control features accessible directly through your account:

  • Deposit limit: Set a maximum daily, weekly, or monthly deposit amount in MYR to keep your spending within limits.
  • Session Time Limits: Set limits on each gaming session and receive automatic reminders when you’re close to reaching them.
  • Cooling-Off Period: Take a voluntary break from the platform for a period of your choosing—from a few days up to several weeks—to refresh your perspective.
  • Self-Exclusion: If you feel you need a longer break, you can apply for self-exclusion from the platform for an extended period. Contact our support team to start this process.

All these settings can be updated through the account management section or by contacting the 1998rich support team.

Tips for Setting Time and Budget Limits

Before you start a session, take a few minutes to set realistic limits — and stick to them without exception:

  • Set your playing budget: Only use spare money you can afford to lose completely. Never use savings or essential funds.
  • Set a time limit: Decide in advance how long you will play—whether 30 minutes or an hour—and stop when the time is up.
  • Avoid playing when emotionally unsettled: Don’t play when you’re feeling stressed, sad, or upset. Emotional states affect judgment and can lead to poor decisions.
  • Take regular breaks: Take short breaks every 30–45 minutes to reassess your state of mind and ensure you’re playing with a clear head.
  • Don’t borrow money to play: Borrowing money from anyone to fund your play is a sign that limits have been crossed and help may be needed.

Underage Protection

1998rich takes seriously its responsibility to prevent under-18s from accessing the platform. All registrations require age verification, and we reserve the right to request identity documents at any time.

If you’re a parent or guardian worried about children’s access to online gambling content, we recommend the following steps:

  • Always keep your account password confidential; do not share it with anyone, including family members.
  • Use parental control software to block access to gambling sites on shared devices.
  • Log out of all sessions when you leave your device, especially in households with children.
  • Have open conversations with your children about gambling risks and the importance of waiting until they’re adults.

If you suspect your account has been accessed by a child, please contact the 1998rich support team immediately for prompt action.

Maintain Life Balance and Seek Help When Needed

Healthy gaming is just a small part of a balanced life.

Maintaining a Healthy Life Balance

Online entertainment like what 1998rich offers should be just a small part of your free time—not your main activity. Maintain a healthy balance between work, family, hobbies, and personal time. Play for the right reasons: entertainment and fun, not a financial fix.

If gaming begins to interfere with your daily life, relationships, or work performance, it’s a signal to pause and re-evaluate your priorities.

Getting Professional Help

There is no shame in asking for help. If you or someone you know is struggling with gambling-related issues, professional support is available in Malaysia:

  • Talian Kasih: 15999 — 24-hour counseling and support services from the Malaysian Social Welfare Department.
  • Befrienders Malaysia: 03-7627 2929 — Empathetic emotional support and listening service.
  • Mental health clinics in government hospitals provide free or subsidized counseling services for addiction issues.
