Gambling is entertainment — and we want to keep it that way. 111kb is committed to providing every player in Pakistan with the tools, information and support they need to stay in control of their play at all times.
Responsible gambling is simply the practice of keeping gambling enjoyable, affordable and firmly within your personal boundaries. For most people, placing a bet on a PSL match or spinning a few slots is pure entertainment — the same way someone in Lahore might watch a film or attend a cricket match. The enjoyment is in the game itself, not in chasing losses or treating gambling as an income source.
At 111kb, responsible gambling means we actively build safeguards into the platform experience. It is not just a legal obligation — it is something we genuinely believe in. Every player, whether you are in Karachi managing a PKR 1,000 deposit or a high-stakes player in Islamabad, deserves to gamble on their own terms with full awareness of the risks.
The key principles of responsible gambling are simple: only gamble with money you can genuinely afford to lose, never use gambling to solve financial problems, always treat it as entertainment with a defined budget, and use the platform's built-in tools to keep that budget and time commitment in check.
111kb provides a comprehensive set of responsible gambling tools accessible directly from your account. Here is what is available and how each one protects you.
Set a maximum amount you can deposit into your 111kb account over a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Once the limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Limits can be reduced immediately; increases require a cooling-off period to protect against impulsive decisions.
Define the maximum amount you are willing to lose within a set time period. When your net losses reach the defined threshold, you are automatically prevented from placing further bets until the limit period expires. This is one of the most effective tools for protecting your PKR bankroll from rapid depletion.
Configure a maximum session duration after which you are automatically logged out of the platform. Time limits prevent extended play sessions that can impair judgement. You can set session limits for individual game types or as a global daily maximum — useful for managing evening sessions after a long day in Rawalpindi or Faisalabad.
Enable periodic in-session notifications that display how long you have been playing and a summary of your net wagering activity. Reality checks interrupt sessions at your chosen interval — every 30 minutes, every hour — giving you a clear, objective picture of your play before you decide whether to continue.
Take a short break from gambling without committing to a full self-exclusion. Cooling-off periods can be set for 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this period your account is suspended and no deposits or bets are accepted. This is ideal if you feel you need a short reset without closing your account permanently.
Voluntarily exclude yourself from the 111kb platform for a defined minimum period (typically 6 months) or permanently. Self-exclusion is the most powerful tool available. Once applied, it cannot be reversed during the exclusion period. Any winnings accumulated during an excluded period are void. Contact support to activate self-exclusion immediately.
Problem gambling does not always look obvious. It can develop gradually — sometimes without the person themselves realising it. Being aware of these warning signs is the first step toward staying in control.
Spending more money on gambling than you originally planned, frequently exceeding your set budget.
Chasing losses — continuing to bet in an attempt to win back money that has already been lost.
Borrowing money from family, friends or colleagues in Karachi, Lahore or elsewhere to fund gambling activity.
Neglecting personal, professional or family responsibilities due to time spent gambling.
Feeling restless, irritable or anxious when not gambling, or when attempting to reduce gambling activity.
Lying to family members or concealing the true extent of gambling activity or losses.
Gambling with money set aside for essential expenses — household bills, rent, school fees or medical costs.
Feeling a persistent need to gamble with increasingly large amounts to achieve the same level of excitement.
Experiencing feelings of guilt, shame or depression in connection with gambling, yet continuing to gamble anyway.
Spending long hours gambling without stopping, losing track of time, and skipping meals or sleep to continue.
Repeatedly making unsuccessful attempts to cut back or stop gambling despite a genuine desire to do so.
Turning to gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety, relationship problems or financial difficulties.
Honest self-reflection is one of the most powerful responsible gambling tools available. The questions on the right are adapted from widely used problem gambling screening frameworks. Answer them honestly — they are for your own benefit only.
If you answer "yes" to three or more of these questions, or if even one answer troubles you, we strongly encourage you to take action now — whether that means setting a deposit limit, requesting a cooling-off period, or reaching out to our support team to discuss self-exclusion.
There is no shame in seeking help. Gambling problems are recognised health and wellbeing concerns — not personal failures. Thousands of players across Pakistan have used platform tools and external support to regain control of their gambling.

Setting limits takes less than two minutes and can make a significant difference to your long-term gambling experience. Follow these steps from any device.
Sign in to your 111kb account from any device — desktop or mobile. The platform is fully mobile-optimised for users in Pakistan on 4G connections.
Navigate to your account settings or profile area. Look for the "Responsible Gambling" section — it is accessible from the main account menu at all times.
Select the type of limit you want to apply — deposit limit, loss limit, session time limit, reality check interval, cooling-off period, or self-exclusion. Each has a clear description.
Enter your chosen amount (in PKR for financial limits) or time duration, and confirm. Restrictions take effect immediately. Reductions are instant; increases require a mandatory cooling-off review.
111kb is strictly an adults-only platform. No person under the age of 18 — or the higher minimum age required by the applicable operator licence jurisdiction — is permitted to register an account, make a deposit, or place any bet on the platform under any circumstances.
We actively verify age during the registration process and reserve the right to request government-issued identification documents — such as a CNIC or passport — at any point. Accounts where the user is found to be underage are closed immediately, and any balance may be retained in accordance with operator policy.
If you are a parent or guardian in Islamabad, Lahore, Karachi or anywhere else in Pakistan and you are concerned that a minor in your household may be accessing gambling platforms, we strongly recommend using parental control software to restrict access to gambling websites and apps. Several established parental control tools are widely available.
Reaching out for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Whether you need immediate account intervention or longer-term support, there are options available.
Our 24/7 live chat support team can apply any responsible gambling restriction to your account immediately — deposit limits, session limits, cooling-off periods or self-exclusion. No waiting, no forms — just contact us and we will action it on the spot.

If you believe your gambling has become problematic, speaking to a qualified mental health professional or counsellor is a meaningful next step. In Pakistan, mental health services are available in major cities including Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad and Rawalpindi. Your GP or a local mental health clinic can provide referrals.
Gambling addiction is increasingly recognised within Pakistan's healthcare community. Talking to a trusted family member or close friend about your concerns can also be an important first step, particularly within Pakistan's strong family support culture.
Operator licence jurisdictions may also provide access to dedicated responsible gambling helplines — check the operator's licensing documentation for jurisdiction-specific support contacts.
Online gambling is subject to Pakistan's Prevention of Gambling Act 1977 and may be restricted under applicable provincial legislation. 111kb does not represent that access to gambling platforms is lawful in Pakistan. Users are solely responsible for understanding and complying with the laws applicable in their jurisdiction. This page does not constitute legal advice. If you are uncertain about your legal position, we recommend consulting a qualified legal professional in your city.
Self-exclusion is available to any 111kb user at any time, for any reason. You do not need to be in a crisis to request it. A minimum exclusion period of six months is standard; permanent exclusion is also available.
Once self-exclusion is activated, your account is immediately suspended. You will not be able to log in, deposit or place bets during the exclusion period. Any marketing communications are stopped. If you attempt to re-register during the exclusion period, the new account will be closed upon identification.
