At MR88, the fun of playing comes with responsibility. We believe every member deserves to enjoy online entertainment in a healthy, controlled, and safe way — for themselves and for their loved ones.
Responsible gaming means enjoying betting and online casino games as a fun form of entertainment, not as a source of income or an escape from life's pressures. At MR88, we take this seriously because we know that for some individuals, gambling can become a harmful addiction if left unchecked.
As a trusted online entertainment platform in Malaysia, MR88 has designed a range of tools and protection mechanisms to help our members maintain control over their gaming activities. From daily deposit limit settings to full self-exclusion options, all these tools are built to empower you as a user.
We also work closely with problem gambling support organisations in Malaysia to ensure that anyone who needs help can access it easily and without shame. Remember — asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
MR88 fully supports the principles outlined by international regulatory bodies in the online gambling industry. All control systems and protection tools we offer are free and can be activated at any time directly through your account dashboard, with no need to contact customer support beforehand.
This page provides a comprehensive guide on how to use MR88's control tools, identify warning signs of problem gambling, and access the support you need. We encourage every MR88 member to read and understand the information provided here.
All tools below can be activated directly through your MR88 account — free, easy, and effective immediately.
Set a maximum deposit limit for daily, weekly, or monthly periods based on your financial means. Once a limit is set, the mr88 system will automatically block any deposits that exceed that limit within the relevant period.
Take control of the time you spend on the MR88 platform by setting a playing session limit. Our system will send you a reminder as you approach your set time limit, and will automatically end your session once the limit is reached.
Decide how much you are willing to lose within a given period. Once your losses reach the set limit, your account will be blocked from placing new wagers until the limit period expires — protecting you from continued losses.
Choose to take a break from the MR88 platform for 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days. During the break period, you will not be able to log in or place any wagers. This feature is ideal when you feel you need a short breather.
If you feel that gambling has become a serious problem, you may choose to self-exclude from the MR88 platform for a period of 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanently. During this period, your account cannot be accessed under any circumstances.
Enable real-time notifications via email or SMS for every transaction, login session, and betting activity on your account. This helps you stay fully aware of all activity and spending on the MR88 platform at all times.
Click the Login button at the top of the MR88 website and enter your username and password. Make sure you are accessing the official MR88 website.
Click on your profile icon in the top right corner, then select "Account Settings" or "Security & Limits" from the dropdown menu that appears.
Under the "Responsible Gaming" section, you will see all available control options. Select the type of limit you wish to set — deposit, time, loss, or self-exclusion.
Enter your desired limit value and the relevant time period. Review the information entered and click "Confirm". The limit will take effect immediately after confirmation.
You will receive a confirmation email from MR88 for every limit you set. Keep these emails for your records. If you do not receive an email within 5 minutes, please check your spam folder.
Review your limits every month and adjust as needed. Remember: reduced limits take effect immediately, while increased limits require a 7-day cooling period before taking effect.
Identifying early warning signs is the most important first step. If you recognise any of the signs below in yourself or a loved one, please seek help immediately.
Borrowing money from family, friends, or using credit cards solely to fund gambling activities is a serious warning sign that should not be taken lightly.
Continuing to gamble in the hope of recovering lost money is a dangerous behaviour that frequently leads to far greater losses.
Prioritising gambling over work, family, or social responsibilities indicates that gambling has become uncontrolled and harmful.
Feeling anxious, irritable, or stressed when not gambling, or feeling a rush of excitement only when gambling, are signs of addiction that need to be addressed.
Lying to family members or friends about the time and money spent gambling, or feeling the need to hide this activity from loved ones.
Has attempted to stop or reduce gambling multiple times but failed, or feels unable to set personal time and spending limits while playing.
Answer the questions below honestly. If you answer "yes" to 3 or more questions, we strongly encourage you to speak with a professional or contact one of the helplines listed below.
