Score88 Responsible Gambling — A Guide to Your Wellbeing
At score88, the fun of playing should never come at the cost of your well-being. This page provides guidance, self-control tools, and support information to help you maintain a healthy balance while using our platform.
Score88's Commitment to Responsible Gambling
Score88 believes that online gambling should be an enjoyable and controlled form of entertainment — not a source of stress, financial hardship, or personal conflict. We take our platform responsibilities seriously and are committed to providing a safe, supportive environment for all users in Malaysia.
Our platform is designed to deliver an enjoyable experience, but we also recognise that some individuals may be more vulnerable to the negative effects of gambling. That is why score88 provides a range of self-control tools and resources to help every user make informed, responsible decisions.
Responsible gambling is more than a policy — it is part of who score88 is as a platform that puts its users' wellbeing first. We encourage every user to embrace these principles not out of obligation, but because they make a real difference in your life.
Recognise the Signs of Risky Behaviour
The first step to looking after yourself is recognising the early signs of a gambling problem. Take an honest look at the checklist below:
Financial Warning Signs
- Borrowing money or selling assets to fund gambling
- Using money meant for essential needs such as rent or food
- Hiding gambling activity and the amount spent from family
- Feeling anxious when you are unable to access the gambling platform
- Repeatedly chasing losses with additional deposits
Emotional and Social Warning Signs
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or distressed when not playing
- Neglecting work, family, or social responsibilities due to gaming
- Using gambling as an escape from problems or negative emotions
- Relationships with loved ones strained by gaming habits
- Playing longer or spending more than planned
Important: If you recognise two or more of the signs above in yourself, it may be time to take a step back and seek support. There's no shame in asking for help — score88 is here for you.
How to Set Smart Time and Budget Limits
One of the most effective ways to keep your gaming experience healthy is to set clear limits before you start playing — not after. Here are some practical guidelines we recommend to all score88 users:
Daily or Weekly Budget Limits
Decide on a maximum amount in MYR you are comfortable spending on gambling entertainment per day or per week. Think of it as an entertainment cost — just like buying a movie ticket or dining out. Once you hit that limit, stop your session, no exceptions.
Session Time Limit
Set an alarm on your phone before you start playing. A healthy session typically does not exceed one to two hours. Rest your eyes and mind, do something else, and only return the next day if you are still within your budget.
Principles of Mindful Play
- Do not play when you are angry, stressed, or under the influence of alcohol
- Play for entertainment, not as a way to earn income
- Accept that losses are part of the game — never try to chase them back
- Enjoy your wins, but don't depend on them
Available Self-Control Features
Score88 offers several self-control options to help you better manage your gambling activity. All these features can be activated through our customer support team.
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly maximum deposit limit in MYR to keep your spending in check.

Minor Protection & Life Balance
Protecting Children and Teenagers
Score88 is a platform exclusively for individuals aged 18 and above. We take the protection of minors very seriously. If you share a device with younger family members, please ensure your account is secured with a strong password and kept out of their reach.
Parents and guardians are encouraged to use parental control software on devices accessible to children and teenagers. If you suspect that someone under the age of 18 has accessed a score88 account, please contact our support team immediately so we can take appropriate action.
Life Balance Comes First
Healthy gambling starts with a balanced life. Make sure gaming does not eat into time that should go to family, work, education, physical activity, and social relationships. Digital entertainment like online gambling should complement your life — not take it over.
If you find yourself thinking about gambling more than anything else in your life, it may be a sign that you need to reassess that balance. Talk to someone you trust or seek professional help — it's a sign of strength, not weakness.
- Gambling is not a source of income
- Age restriction: 18 and above only
- Take a break when you need one — there is no shame in it
- Seeking help early is better than waiting
Seek Professional Help When Needed
No one has to face problem gambling alone. If you or someone you know needs support, help is available. Reaching out is a sign of courage — and the first step toward recovery.
In Malaysia, individuals dealing with gambling-related issues can access support through professional counselling services, mental health helplines, and community support organisations. score88 encourages anyone who needs help to reach out to qualified professionals without hesitation.
The score88 support team can also help you activate self-control tools, process break requests, or point you toward the right support resources. We are here for you — reach us at [email protected] or via FAQ page for more information.
