Our Commitment to Safer Play
At ez88, responsible gaming is not an afterthought — it is a core pillar of how we operate. We recognize that for a small number of people, what begins as recreational entertainment can develop into a problem that affects their finances, relationships, and mental health. Our commitment is to provide the tools, information, and support necessary to keep gaming enjoyable for everyone on our platform.
This page outlines the player-protection features available to all ez88 account holders, describes the warning signs of problem gambling, and explains how to access immediate support — whether through our 24/7 customer care team or external professional resources.
All ez88 accounts are strictly limited to individuals who are 21 years of age or older. This requirement is enforced through our mandatory KYC (Know Your Customer) identity verification process. If you believe a minor has gained access to an ez88 account, please contact us immediately at [email protected].
Is Gambling Becoming a Problem?
Ask yourself honestly — do any of these statements apply to you?
- I spend more money on gambling than I originally intended.
- I chase losses by placing more bets to "win back" what I've lost.
- Gaming is affecting my work, studies, or family responsibilities.
- I feel anxious, irritable, or restless when I try to stop gambling.
- I have borrowed money or sold belongings to fund gambling.
- I lie to people close to me about how much time or money I spend gambling.
If you answered yes to any of the above, please use our self-exclusion tool or contact our support team right away. You can also scroll down to access our professional support resources.
Player Protection Tools
Every ez88 account comes equipped with a full set of responsible gaming controls, available at no cost and accessible directly from your account settings.
Deposit Limits
Set a maximum deposit cap on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Limit reductions take effect immediately. Increases require a 48-hour cooling-off period to ensure you have time to reconsider.
Session Time Reminders
Configure alerts that notify you when you have been playing for a set duration — 30 minutes, 1 hour, or any custom interval. Awareness of time spent is one of the most effective responsible gaming practices.
Cool-Off Period
Take a short break from the platform without permanently closing your account. Cool-off periods range from 24 hours to 6 weeks. Your account is suspended for gaming during this time, but remains accessible for account queries.
Self-Exclusion
Request a longer-term self-exclusion for a period of 6 months to 5 years, or a permanent exclusion with no end date. Temporary exclusions cannot be reversed until the minimum period has elapsed — this is by design, to protect you.
Activity & Loss Tracking
Review a complete history of your deposits, withdrawals, bets placed, wins, and net gaming outcome from within your account dashboard. Transparent records help you make informed decisions about your gaming activity.
Reality Checks
Opt in to periodic on-screen prompts that display how long you have been playing in the current session and your net balance movement. Reality checks interrupt the flow of play and encourage a moment of reflection.

Self-Assessment Quiz
Answer these questions honestly to assess whether your gaming habits may be developing into a problem. There are no right or wrong answers — this is for your awareness only.
Do you often gamble longer than you originally planned?
Have you tried to reduce or stop gambling but found it difficult?
Do you feel restless or irritable when attempting to cut back on gambling?
Do you gamble to escape problems or relieve negative feelings like anxiety or depression?
After losing money, do you often return the next day to try to win it back?
Have you lied to family members or friends to hide the extent of your gambling?
Have you risked or lost important relationships, jobs, or opportunities because of gambling?
Do you rely on others to provide money to relieve a desperate financial situation caused by gambling?
If you answered "yes" to 4 or more questions, your gambling may be problematic. We strongly encourage you to activate self-exclusion or reach out to a professional support service listed below.
Understanding Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion is the most powerful responsible gaming tool. It completely suspends your ability to access the ez88 platform for a set period you choose.
What Happens When You Self-Exclude?
Upon activation of self-exclusion, your ez88 account is immediately locked for all gaming activity. You will not be able to log in, deposit funds, place bets on sports or casino games, or claim bonuses. Any pending withdrawals will be processed normally, and any remaining balance in your account can be withdrawn before or after the exclusion period.
During the exclusion period, ez88 will not send you any marketing communications or promotional offers. Your account will be removed from all marketing databases for the duration of the exclusion.
Available Self-Exclusion Periods
- 6 months (minimum temporary exclusion)
- 1 year
- 2 years
- 5 years
- Permanent (indefinite exclusion with no automatic end date)
Reactivating Your Account After Exclusion
When your self-exclusion period expires, your account does not automatically reopen. You must proactively contact our support team and request account reactivation. Before reactivation, you will be asked to complete a brief reflection questionnaire to confirm that you are ready to resume gaming in a controlled manner. We may recommend that you set deposit limits or other protection tools before full access is restored.
Permanent Self-Exclusion
If you choose permanent self-exclusion, your ez88 account will be closed indefinitely with no automatic expiration date. Permanent exclusion can only be reversed after a minimum period of 5 years, and only after you provide written evidence of significant life changes and a professional assessment confirming you are fit to resume controlled gaming. This policy reflects the seriousness of permanent exclusion as a last-resort measure.

Protecting Minors
ez88 operates under a strict 21+ age policy. It is illegal for anyone under the age of 21 to create an account, deposit funds, or place bets on our platform.
We verify the age of every account holder through mandatory KYC identity checks. Accounts found to belong to individuals under 21 are immediately suspended, all transactions are reversed where possible, and winnings are voided.
Advice for Parents & Guardians
- Keep your device passwords private and use biometric authentication where available.
- Monitor bank and e-wallet statements for unfamiliar transactions.
- Enable parental controls and content filters on devices used by children.
- Talk openly with young people about the risks of gambling and the importance of age restrictions.
- Report suspected underage gambling immediately to [email protected].
How We Prevent Underage Access
All new accounts on the ez88 platform are subject to identity verification within 72 hours of registration. During the verification process, Players must submit a government-issued photo identification document such as an Indonesian KTP (Kartu Tanda Penduduk) that clearly displays their date of birth.
If a Player fails to complete identity verification within the specified timeframe, their account is automatically restricted from making deposits or placing bets until verification is successfully completed. This policy ensures that no unverified (and potentially underage) account can engage in real-money gaming on our platform.
If ez88 discovers that an account was registered using false information or stolen identity documents, we will immediately close the account, confiscate any remaining balance, and report the incident to the relevant authorities. We also maintain an internal database of flagged identity documents to prevent repeat attempts at underage access.
