At borneo77, responsible gaming is more than a slogan — it is at the core of how we operate. We understand that for most users, playing online is an enjoyable and relaxing form of entertainment. However, we also recognise that for some individuals, gaming habits can develop into something difficult to manage without the right guidance.

That is why borneo77 invests in a comprehensive responsible gaming infrastructure — from personal control tools and gaming habit monitoring systems, to a counselling support network accessible at any time. Every platform design decision we make takes user well-being into account.

We also work with consumer protection bodies and mental health professionals to ensure our approach remains relevant, effective, and people-centred. This is not just about compliance — it is about the values we uphold as a platform trusted by users in Malaysia.

Borneo77's Six Principles of Responsible Gaming

Our full commitment to ensuring a healthy and balanced gaming experience for every user

Personal Limit Controls

Every borneo77 user can set their own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits through account settings. These limits take effect immediately and can only be lowered right away — increasing a limit requires a waiting period to ensure a well-considered decision.

Reminders & Time Limits

Borneo77 sends automatic reminders when you have been playing beyond a set duration. You can also set session time limits so the platform will alert you or pause your session once the limit is reached — helping you stay aware of how long you've been playing.

Temporary Break

If you feel you need a short break, the temporary break feature lets you block account access for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this period, you will not be able to log in or make any transactions — but your account balance remains safe.

Self-Exclusion

For those who need a stronger measure, borneo77 offers long-term self-exclusion options of 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. Once activated, the exclusion cannot be reversed during the chosen period — this is a serious commitment to your well-being.

Play Habit Monitoring

The borneo77 AI system actively monitors each user's play patterns to detect signs of problem gambling. If a suspicious pattern is detected — such as a sudden spike in play frequency or attempts to circumvent limits — our team will proactively reach out to the user.

Support & Counselling

Borneo77 provides direct access to counselling resources and support organisations. Our support team is trained to listen and guide you without judgement. We believe every user deserves the right help at the right time.

Control Tools in Your Account

Borneo77 offers a range of practical control tools accessible directly from your account settings. These tools are designed to give you full control over your gaming experience, without any complicated processes.

Deposit Limit

Set the maximum amount you can deposit each day, week, or month. Our system will automatically decline any deposit that exceeds the limit you have set.

Effective immediately
Loss Limit

Set the maximum loss amount you are willing to accept within a given period. Once this limit is reached, the platform will automatically pause your wagering activity.

Automatic protection
Session Time Limit

Limit the duration of each gaming session. Once the session time limit is reached, borneo77 will display a reminder and require you to re-confirm before continuing.

Customisable
Content Blocking

Block specific game categories from your account view if you feel a particular type of game poses a higher personal risk to you.

Warning Signs to Watch Out For

Recognising the early signs of problem gambling is the first step toward getting help. Watch for the following signs in yourself or someone you care about:

  • 01

    Spending beyond your means. You use money meant for daily needs, bills, or savings to gamble and often regret it afterwards.

  • 02

    Unable to stop even when you want to. You intend to stop or cut back on gaming but have failed to do so despite multiple attempts.

  • 03

    Playing to escape. You play not for fun, but to escape problems, work stress, or other negative feelings.

  • 04

    Hiding gambling habits. You lie to family or friends about the time and money you spend gambling online.

  • 05

    Obsessively chasing losses. You constantly try to win back money you have lost by continuing to play even as the situation gets worse.

  • 06

    Relationships and work affected. Gaming activity is starting to affect your relationships with family, work performance, or daily responsibilities.

  • 07

    Borrowing money to gamble. You borrow from family, friends, or take out personal loans solely for the purpose of gambling.

  • Seek help early before the problem becomes more serious.

FAQ

Here are answers to the most frequently asked questions about responsible gaming at borneo77. Can't find your answer? Contact us via live chat.

We encourage you to revisit this FAQ section regularly as we continuously improve our responsible gaming policies and tools.

Log in to your borneo77 account, then go to "Account Settings" and select "Responsible Gaming". Here you will find options to set daily, weekly, and monthly deposit limits. Limits you set take effect immediately. To lower a limit, the change is applied right away. However, to raise a limit, a 7-day waiting period applies to ensure a considered and well-planned decision.

A temporary break is a short-term account block lasting 24 hours to 30 days, ideal for those who need a brief pause from gaming. Once the period ends, your account is automatically reactivated. Self-exclusion, on the other hand, is a long-term commitment of 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. It cannot be reversed during the active period and requires a review process before the account can be reinstated (except for the permanent option). Choose based on your needs and the severity of your situation.

Yes, your account balance remains safe throughout the self-exclusion period. You can still contact the borneo77 support team to process a withdrawal of your balance while the exclusion is active. However, you will not be permitted to make any new deposits or play during this period. The security of your funds is our priority, and all withdrawals will be handled safely through verified channels.

Not at all. When you activate a self-exclusion or temporary break, our system will automatically remove your account from all marketing lists and promotional communications. You will not receive promotional emails, offer notifications, or any messages related to gaming activity. This is part of our responsible gaming pledge, which we take seriously.

The first step is to have an open, non-judgmental conversation with your family member. Express your concerns with compassion, not accusations. You can contact the borneo77 support team on their behalf for guidance on how to help. Additionally, Talian Kasih 15999 and the Department of Social Welfare (JKM) offer counselling services for family members affected by a loved one's gambling problem. Remember, seeking help early is far better than waiting for the situation to worsen.

Yes, completely. All information related to your responsible gaming activity — including limits set, break requests, and self-exclusion history — is confidential and protected under borneo77's strict privacy policy. This information will not be shared with any third party without your consent, except where required by law. You can read more about how we handle your personal data in our Privacy Policy policy.
