What Is Responsible Gaming

Let Gaming Be a Joy, Not a Burden

Responsible gaming means playing with awareness, intention, and within your limits. Every time you log in to 1978 WC, we want you to enjoy yourself fully — without any mental or financial pressure.

Online gaming is growing rapidly in Bangladesh. Betting on cricket matches or playing casino games has become a popular form of entertainment. But ensuring that entertainment never turns into addiction is a responsibility we share — both you and us.

1978 WC embeds responsible gaming not just on paper, but at the core of every system. Our platform includes tools that let you set your own limits.

"Gaming should make you smile, not suffer. Never bet beyond your budget."

— 1978 WC Responsible Gaming Team

Deposit Limit

Set your own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Decreases take effect immediately; increases require a 7-day waiting period.

Self-Exclusion

Self-Exclusion — The Strongest Protection

When gaming starts to feel out of control, self-exclusion is the most effective step you can take. At 1978 WC, this feature is completely free and takes effect immediately.

When self-exclusion is active: account login will be disabled, marketing communications will stop, and your balance will be kept safe.

⚠️ Once self-exclusion is activated, it cannot be cancelled before the chosen period ends. Think it through carefully before you decide. If you're unsure, try a Cooling-Off period or Deposit Limit first.

To self-exclude, contact our support team directly or do it through your account settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

When a match is cancelled or abandoned, 1978 WC generally follows these rules: if the match is cancelled before it starts, all bets are fully refunded. If the match is abandoned after a specified number of overs or a set period of play, settlement may be based on the result of the completed portion — for example, the DLS method applies in cricket. In live betting, markets where the outcome has already been determined are settled as normal; remaining markets are voided and stakes are returned. For accurate details, refer to the betting rules for the specific event or contact support.
