PV99's Commitment

What Is Responsible Gaming?

Online gaming should be a form of entertainment — not a source of stress, debt or problems in daily life. At pv99, we take our commitment to responsible gaming because we know that behind every account is a real person.

Responsible gaming means playing within boundaries you set for yourself — in terms of time, money and frequency — while maintaining full control over your gaming experience. It does not mean you cannot have fun; rather, it ensures that fun never turns into something harmful.

Pv99 provides a range of self-control tools accessible at any time through your account settings. Our support team, operating 24 hours a day, is also ready to assist if you need guidance or immediate help.

Always remember: Gaming is entertainment, not a way to generate income or solve financial problems. Set your limits before you play, not after.
Self-Control Tools

You Stay in Control — We Provide the Tools

Pv99 has built these tools directly into the platform so you can use them at any time, without waiting or having to deal with anyone.

Daily / Weekly Deposit Limit

Set the maximum deposit amount you can make within a 24-hour or 7-day period. Once the limit is reached, the system automatically pauses deposits until the reset period ends.

Play Time Limit

Set how long you want to play each session. pv99 will send you a reminder when your time limit is almost up, helping you manage your time more effectively.

Cool-Off

Need a short break? Use the Cool-Off feature to pause access to your account for a brief period — from 24 hours up to 30 days — without closing your account permanently.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need to stop for a longer period, self-exclusion can be activated for anywhere from 3 months to permanently. Your account will be fully restricted throughout this period.

Loss Limit

Set a maximum loss amount within a given period. Once this limit is reached, you will not be able to continue playing for that period — protecting your account balance.

Disable Promotions

You can opt out of receiving any bonus or promotional offers that may encourage excessive play. This option can be enabled or disabled at any time.

Recognising Early Warning Signs

One of the most important aspects of responsible gaming is being able to recognise when gaming has started to go beyond entertainment. Most people are unaware they have a problem until the situation has become quite serious. Here are the signs to watch for in yourself:

Behavioural Warning Signs

  • Playing with money meant for basic necessities such as rent, bills, or food.
  • Borrowing money or selling assets to fund gameplay.
  • Lying to family members or friends about how often you play or how much money you spend on gaming.
  • Continuing to play in an attempt to win back money already lost (chasing losses).
  • Neglecting work, family or social responsibilities due to gaming.
  • Feeling anxious, irritable or uncomfortable when trying to stop playing.

Emotional & Psychological Warning Signs

  • Using gaming as an escape from problems or negative emotions.
  • Feeling extreme euphoria when winning and severe distress when losing.
  • Constantly thinking about gaming even while doing other activities.
  • Needing to increase the amount wagered to achieve the same level of excitement.
If you recognise any of the signs above: Don't wait until things get worse. Reach out to the PV99 support team via live chat or activate the self-exclusion feature immediately. Help is here for you.

FAQ

Responsible Gaming FAQ

We have compiled the most frequently asked questions from PV99 players regarding responsible gaming.

Login to your account, go to Account Settings and select the "Responsible Gaming" section. There you can set daily or weekly deposit limits based on your budget. Limits take effect immediately once saved, and any request to increase them requires a 48-hour waiting period as an added safety measure.

Cool-Off is a temporary break ranging from 24 hours to 30 days — ideal if you just need a short pause. Self-Exclusion is a more serious option, with a minimum period of 3 months that can be extended permanently. While self-exclusion is active, you will not receive any marketing communications from PV99 and your account will be inaccessible.

No. Self-Exclusion is designed to be irreversible before the set period expires. This is to protect you from impulsive decisions that may be made under stress. Once the period ends, your account will not be reopened automatically — you will need to contact the support team and go through an assessment process first.

Your account balance remains safe throughout the self-exclusion period. You may request a withdrawal of your balance by contacting the PV99 support team via email at [email protected]. Our team will process your withdrawal request upon completion of identity verification, with no need to log in to the platform.

pv99 applies a KYC (Know Your Customer) process that requires identity document verification before players can make deposits or withdrawals. Documents such as a national ID or passport are used to confirm that the player is 18 years of age or older. Accounts that fail to complete KYC cannot access the platform's financial functions.

Yes. The pv99 support team provides assistance fully in both Bahasa Melayu and English. Live chat is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You may also reach us via email for inquiries related to responsible gaming, account controls, or any other concerns you may have.
