01What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means approaching online casino games and sports betting as a leisure activity — something you enjoy within a clear set of personal limits, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. q798 offers a wide range of entertainment options: from Cricket and PSL sports betting to Slot Games, Fish Games, Live Casino and more. Every one of those experiences is designed to be enjoyable. They are not designed to be relied on as income.

The house always has an edge in casino games, and sports betting outcomes are never guaranteed — even when a Pakistan team is the overwhelming favourite going into a T20 match. Losses are a completely normal part of gaming, and every player on q798 should enter each session accepting that some or all of their session budget may not come back.

q798 believes that responsible gaming is a shared responsibility. The platform provides tools and information to help you manage your activity. The rest comes down to the decisions you make before, during and after each gaming session. This page is here to give you the information and practical guidance you need to keep gaming in its proper place — as one enjoyable part of your day, not the centre of it.

Simple rule of thumb: If you would feel uncomfortable telling a friend or family member how much you spent gaming this week, that is a useful signal to review your habits and budget.

02Set Your PKR Budget Before You Start

The single most effective thing you can do to keep gaming under control is to decide — before you open q798 — exactly how much PKR you are comfortable spending in that session. Not "how much I can afford to lose if things go badly." The amount you are completely comfortable spending and not getting back. That figure is your session budget.

A few practical guidelines for budgeting your q798 gaming activity:

  • Only use discretionary income: Your gaming budget should come from money left over after rent, bills, groceries, transport and any other obligations are already covered. Never use borrowed money, savings or funds earmarked for something else.
  • Set a weekly or monthly cap, not just a session limit: Individual session limits are useful, but a broader weekly or monthly PKR cap gives you a clearer overall picture of your spending. Review this figure regularly.
  • Stop when the budget is spent: When your session budget is gone, the session is over — regardless of whether you are on a winning streak or a losing run. Chasing losses by topping up beyond your budget is one of the most common causes of problem gambling.
  • Never increase your budget mid-session: Deciding to deposit more PKR during an active session because "things are about to turn around" is a pattern to avoid entirely. Set the budget before you start and stick to it.

Example Monthly Budget Breakdown (PKR 5,000 total)

Slot GamesPKR 1,500 — 30%
Sports Betting (Cricket / PSL)PKR 2,000 — 40%
Live CasinoPKR 1,000 — 20%
Fish Games / Game LobbyPKR 500 — 10%

This is an illustrative example only. Set your own limits based on your personal financial situation.

03Manage Your Time as Carefully as Your Money

Time is just as important as PKR when it comes to responsible gaming. Long uninterrupted gaming sessions — especially late at night — can impair judgement, make it harder to stick to your budget and make gaming feel more compulsive than it should. q798 recommends treating each gaming session the same way you would treat any other leisure activity: with a start time and an end time planned in advance.

  • Decide on a session length before you start. A reasonable session might be 30 to 90 minutes. Set a reminder or alarm on your phone before you begin.
  • Take regular breaks during longer sessions. Stand up, get a drink of water, step away from the screen. This simple habit keeps gaming in perspective and helps you stay in control of your decisions.
  • Avoid gaming when tired, stressed or upset. Emotional state has a direct impact on decision-making. Gaming while tired or emotionally distracted leads to worse decisions, higher bet sizes and a higher chance of chasing losses.
  • Do not let gaming cut into sleep, work, study or family time. If you find yourself regularly sacrificing other parts of your day for gaming, it is time to reassess your habits and speak to q798 support about setting limits.

A healthy approach: treat q798 like any other entertainment app — use it when you have spare time and feel relaxed, and close it when the session is done. Not "just one more spin."

04Warning Signs to Watch For

Problem gambling can develop gradually and is often difficult to recognise from the inside. The following signs are commonly associated with gambling habits that have moved beyond healthy entertainment. If you recognise several of these in your own behaviour, it is important to take them seriously and consider using the tools on q798 to limit or pause your activity.

Spending more than you planned — regularly depositing beyond your original session budget, or topping up "just this once" multiple times per session.

Chasing losses — placing larger bets to try to recover what you have already lost, rather than accepting the loss and stopping for the day.

Borrowing money for gaming — using a JazzCash or Easypaisa transfer from a friend or family member, or dipping into savings, to fund gaming sessions.

Hiding your gaming activity — feeling the need to keep your gaming sessions or spending secret from people close to you.

Gaming to escape stress or problems — turning to q798 when you are anxious, low or dealing with difficult situations, rather than as a relaxed leisure activity.

Neglecting daily responsibilities — missing work, skipping family commitments or letting studies slip because of time or money spent on gaming.

Inability to stop — repeatedly trying to cut back or stop gaming and finding that you cannot stick to the decision, or that the urge to return feels overwhelming.

If three or more of the above descriptions feel familiar, please take a break from gaming and contact q798 support to discuss deposit limits, cooling-off periods or self-exclusion options. There is no judgement — the team is there to help.

05Quick Self-Check Questions

The following questions are a simple self-assessment tool. Honest answers take less than two minutes and can help you get a clearer picture of where your gaming habits currently stand.

Q1

In the past month, have you spent more PKR on gaming than you originally intended when you logged in?

Q2

Have you ever deposited money to try to win back losses from a previous session on q798 or any other platform?

Q3

Has anyone in your family or social circle expressed concern about how much time or money you spend on gaming?

Q4

Do you find yourself thinking about gaming — planning your next session or replaying past bets — when you are not actively playing?

Q5

Have you ever gamed using money that was meant for something else — bills, groceries, transport or savings?

Q6

Do you feel irritable, restless or anxious on days when you are not able to access q798 or any gaming platform?

If you answered yes to two or more questions, we strongly recommend setting a deposit limit or taking a short break from gaming. Contact q798 support at any time to action this immediately — no questions asked.

06Account Management Tools Available on q798

q798 provides a set of account management tools designed to give you direct control over your gaming activity. These are available through your account settings and through the q798 support team. All requests are actioned promptly — typically within 24 hours for limit changes and immediately for self-exclusion requests.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum PKR amount you can deposit per day, per week or per month. Once the limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. You can request a reduction at any time; increases take a cooling-off period to take effect.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum session length in minutes or hours. When the limit is reached, you will receive a notification and the session will end. This helps prevent extended unplanned sessions, particularly during Cricket or PSL live betting events.

Cooling-Off Period

Take a break from q798 for a defined period — 24 hours, 48 hours, one week or one month. During this time your account is locked and cannot be used to deposit, bet or play. At the end of the cooling-off period your account returns to normal automatically.

Self-Exclusion

For a more serious break, self-exclusion locks your account for a minimum of six months. During this period you cannot register a new account on q798. Self-exclusion records are retained for a minimum of seven years to prevent re-registration during the exclusion period.

Loss Limits

Set a ceiling on net losses across a defined period. When your losses reach the limit, your account is temporarily restricted from placing further bets until the period resets. This is one of the most effective tools for preventing a bad session from becoming a genuinely damaging one.

Reality Checks

Enable periodic on-screen reminders that display how long you have been playing and how much PKR you have deposited and wagered in the current session. These prompts appear at set intervals — every 30, 60 or 90 minutes — and are a simple nudge to reassess whether you want to continue.

To set up or modify any of the above tools, log into your account and access the responsible gaming section of your account settings, or contact q798 support directly. Support is available around the clock and will action any limit or exclusion request as a priority.

07Keeping Minors Away from q798

q798 is strictly an 18-and-above platform. Age is verified during account registration and may be re-checked at any point during the identity verification process. If an account is found to belong to a person under 18, it is closed immediately, any remaining balance is returned where possible and all data is deleted.

Parents and guardians in Pakistan can take a number of practical steps to prevent underage access to online gaming platforms at the device level:

  • Screen time and app controls: Both Android and iOS offer built-in parental control features that can block access to specific websites or apps. Set these up on any shared device in the household.
  • Browser-level restrictions: Many routers and internet service providers offer parental filtering settings that can block gambling-related domains at the network level, covering all devices in the home.
  • Keep account credentials private: Never share your q798 login details with anyone. Keep your password unique to q798 and store it securely. If you suspect a minor has accessed your account, contact support immediately.
  • Open conversations: Talking openly with young people about online gaming — what it involves, why it is for adults only and what the risks are — is one of the most effective preventative measures available.

If you believe a minor has registered or is actively using a q798 account, please report it to the q798 support team immediately. The account will be reviewed and closed without delay.

08Responsible Gaming — Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. You can set daily, weekly or monthly PKR deposit limits through your account settings or by contacting q798 support. Limits can be reduced immediately. Requests to increase a limit are subject to a cooling-off period before taking effect, giving you time to reconsider.

Self-exclusion locks your q798 account for a minimum of six months. During this time you cannot log in, deposit or place bets. You also cannot create a new q798 account during the exclusion period. To request self-exclusion, contact q798 support — it is actioned immediately.

The minimum age to register and play on q798 is 18 years old. Age verification is carried out during registration and may be requested again at any point. Any account found to belong to a person under 18 is closed immediately.

No. Casino games and sports betting on q798 are forms of entertainment. The outcomes of Slot Games, Live Casino and sports bets — including Cricket and PSL matches — involve chance and are not predictable or reliable as an income source. Always play with money you are comfortable spending, not money you need.

Yes. A cooling-off period lets you lock your account for 24 hours, 48 hours, one week or one month without triggering a full self-exclusion. Your account returns to normal automatically at the end of the cooling-off period. Contact q798 support to set this up.

The first step is to stop playing and contact q798 support to set a deposit limit, cooling-off period or self-exclusion — whichever feels right for your situation. Talk to someone you trust about what you are experiencing. Recognising a problem early and taking action is always the right move.

Six Habits of a Responsible Player

Keep these in mind every time you log into q798 — whether you are betting on a PSL match or spinning the reels.

Budget Before You Play

Decide your PKR session budget before logging in — not after. Write it down if it helps. Once that amount is spent, the session ends. No exceptions, no top-ups, no "just one more deposit."

Set a Session Time Limit

Use your phone alarm or q798's built-in session timer to cap each gaming session at a reasonable length. When the alarm goes off, log out. A fresh session tomorrow is always an option.

Play for Fun, Not to Fix Problems

q798 is entertainment. It is not a solution to financial pressure, stress or personal problems. If you are gaming to escape a difficult situation, that is a sign to step back and deal with the underlying issue first.

Never Chase Losses

A losing session is a normal part of gaming. Trying to recover losses by depositing more PKR and placing larger bets is the most direct path from recreational gaming to problem gambling. Accept the loss and come back another day.

Keep the Conversation Open

Talk to people you trust about your gaming habits — how much time you spend, how much PKR you put in each month. If you feel uncomfortable having that conversation, it is worth thinking about why.

Use the Tools Available

Deposit limits, session limits, cooling-off periods and self-exclusion are there for a reason. Using them is not an admission of weakness — it is the mark of a player who takes their own wellbeing seriously. q798 support can set any of these up for you immediately.
