We Provide, You Control

Six key features we built specifically to help HBO9 players stay in control while playing.

Daily & Weekly Deposit Limits

Set a deposit limit that suits your financial comfort — daily, weekly, or monthly. Limits take effect immediately and can only be reduced within 24 hours of the change being made.

Play Time Limit

Set a time limit for your gaming sessions. Once the limit is reached, our system will send an automatic alert and encourage you to take a break. You can always reduce this limit without any waiting period.

Temporary Break (Cool-Off)

Need a quick break? Activate cool-off mode for 24 hours, 48 hours, or 7 days. During this period, your account will be blocked from any wagering activity without affecting your balance.

Self-Exclusion

For those who need a longer break, the self-exclusion option can be activated for anywhere from 30 days up to 5 years. This option helps players who are serious about stepping away from gambling activity.

Maximum Loss Limit

Set a maximum loss amount you are willing to accept within a given period. Once the limit is reached, the system will automatically block new bets for that period.

Reality Check & Self-Assessment

Use our self-assessment tool to evaluate your playing habits. A full activity report including betting history, wins, and losses is available in your account at any time.


What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming isn't just a slogan — it's a genuine commitment from hbo9 to every player who trusts our platform. In short, playing responsibly means you play for fun, not to escape your problems; you play with money you can afford to lose, not money needed for daily essentials; and you always know when it's time to stop.

At HBO9, we believe every player deserves a safe entertainment experience. Our platform is built not only to deliver the best games, but also to ensure players do not fall into habits that could negatively impact their lives. That is why we invest in self-control tools that anyone can use, at any time, completely free of charge.

Remember: Gambling is entertainment, not a way to earn income or solve financial problems. Always set a budget before you play.

Signs of Problem Gambling

Sometimes we do not notice when a fun hobby has turned into something more serious. Here are some warning signs to watch for in yourself or someone you care about:

  • Feeling the need to wager increasingly larger amounts to get the same thrill.
  • Frequently attempting to "chase losses" by continuing to bet.
  • Lying to family or friends about gambling activity or the amount of money spent.
  • Using money meant for bills, food, or other necessities to place bets.
  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when unable to place a bet.
  • Gambling is interfering with your personal relationships, work, or daily responsibilities.
  • Repeatedly failing to cut back or stop gambling despite trying.

If you recognise two or more of the signs above in yourself, that is not a sign of weakness — it is a sign that you should talk to someone or make use of the support tools we provide. You are not alone.

If you feel gambling is starting to affect your daily life, please use the Self-Exclusion us or contact the hbo9 support team for immediate assistance.

How to Use Self-Control Tools at HBO9

All self-control tools we provide are accessible directly through your account settings in the hbo9 app or website. The process is straightforward and does not require you to contact customer support first — though we are always ready to help if needed.

  • 1 Login into your hbo9 account and go to the Account Settings.
  • 2 Select tab Responsible Gaming to view all available options.
  • 3 Choose the tool you need — deposit limits, time limits, cool-off breaks or self-exclusion.
  • 4 Set an appropriate value or period. Limits that reduce control will take effect immediately.
  • 5 Confirm your selection. You will receive a confirmation email and an in-account notification.

Underage Player Protection

HBO9 takes the issue of underage players very seriously. Our platform is only open to individuals aged 18 years and above. All new players are required to complete the KYC (Know Your Customer) verification process before making any deposit or wagering.

If you share a device with younger family members, we encourage you to:

  • Always log out of your hbo9 account after each session.
  • Not saving passwords on shared devices.
  • Use parental control software on devices used by children.
  • Avoid sharing your account details with anyone, including family members.

If you suspect that someone under 18 has accessed our platform, please contact our support team immediately so that appropriate action can be taken.

HBO9's Commitment to Players

As a trusted platform, hbo9 sees players as more than just numbers. We invest in training programmes for our support team so they can identify players who may need help and offer timely assistance.

We also work with independent bodies in the gaming industry to ensure our platform practices meet recognised responsible gaming standards. Every update to our self-control system is made based on real player feedback and the latest research in gambling psychology.

Your trust is our most valuable asset. A platform that puts its players' wellbeing first is one that can stand the test of time — and that is HBO9's long-term vision.

Answer these simple questions honestly:

  • Are you playing with money you cannot afford to lose?
  • Do you find yourself thinking about gambling throughout the day?
  • Have you ever tried to stop but couldn't?
  • Is gambling affecting your relationships or work?

If yes to any of the questions, consider using our self-control tools or contact our support team.

The HBO9 support team is ready to assist you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week via live chat within the platform.

Responsible Gaming Questions

Answers to the questions our players ask most often.

Yes, all self-control tools including deposit limits can be set directly through the Account Settings > Responsible Gaming within the hbo9 platform without needing to contact anyone. Limits that reduce control take effect immediately.

The minimum self-exclusion period is 30 days and can be extended up to 5 years. During this period, your account will be fully blocked from wagering activity. Your account balance remains safe and can be reclaimed once the period ends.

No. To protect players, any request to increase a deposit limit requires a minimum 24-hour waiting period before the change takes effect. This is a deliberate step we take to ensure decisions are made with careful consideration, not on impulse.

Talk to them openly and without judgment. Encourage them to use the self-control tools we provide or to seek professional help. You can also contact the HBO9 support team for guidance on the steps that can be taken.

Yes, completely free. All self-control tools — deposit limits, time limits, cool-off breaks, loss limits, and self-exclusion — are provided at no extra charge to all registered hbo9 members.
