All services at 23bd are for adults only. We take a firm stance against underage gambling.

For ages 21 and above only

You must be at least 21 years old to register at 23bd and play any game. We verify age at account creation and may request a national ID if needed. Accounts belonging to underage users are closed immediately and deposited funds are returned.

Age Verification Process

  • Providing your date of birth at registration is mandatory
  • NID or birth certificate verification in cases of suspicion
  • Withdrawals are held until verification is complete

Our Protection Tools

23bd provides powerful tools to help you stay in control of your gaming. Activate them at any time.

Deposit Limit

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly limit. Lowering a limit takes effect immediately; increasing it requires a 24-hour wait.

Time-Out Break

Take a set break from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. During this time your account will be fully locked and no betting will be possible.

Self-Exclusion

Exclude yourself temporarily or on a long-term basis. You can choose from a minimum of 6 months up to a fully permanent exclusion.

Session Time Limit

Set a maximum time for each gaming session. When the time is up, you will automatically be prompted to take a break.

Loss Limit

Set a cap on how much you can lose within a given period. When the limit is reached, your session will end automatically.

Support Assistance

If you feel you may have a gambling problem, contact our 24/7 Bengali live chat support right away. We will help you with complete confidentiality.

Five Core Principles of Responsible Play

Responsible play at 23bd means more than just setting limits — it is an overall mindset. See gambling as entertainment, not as a source of income. After each session, ask yourself: am I playing for fun, or am I trying to win back money I lost? If it is the second, take a break immediately.

Set your budget in advance

Before you start playing, decide how much you can afford to spend and never go beyond that limit. Use 23bd's deposit limit feature to make this automatic. Keep in mind, the minimum deposit is just ৳300.

Do not chase losses

Placing more bets in an attempt to recover lost money is the biggest mistake you can make. The outcome of every game is completely random and has no connection to previous results. If you are losing, take a break.

Stay aware of time

Time passes quickly during a gaming session. Use session time limits and regular breaks. After each gaming session, spend time with family, have a meal, and get enough rest.

Do not play under stress

Gambling when you are feeling sad, angry, anxious, or stressed impairs your ability to make good decisions. Playing in that state greatly increases the chance of losses. Calm yourself down first.

Set a win limit too

When you have won a set amount, end the session and withdraw the money. Withdrawals take just 15 minutes to 2 hours — so it is easy to keep your winnings safe. If you keep playing out of greed, you may end up losing what you have won.

Signs of a Gambling Problem

Problem gambling tendencies develop gradually. If you or someone close to you shows the signs below, it is important to seek help.

Behavioural Signs

  • Repeatedly spending more than your budget
  • Placing more bets to try to recover lost money
  • Hiding your gambling from family or friends
  • Neglecting work, studies, or family responsibilities

Emotional Signs

  • Feeling restless or irritable when not gambling
  • Unable to sleep without gambling
  • Constantly thinking about gambling
  • Growing anxiety over financial problems
  • Trying to stop gambling but being unable to

Do not hesitate to seek help

If any of the signs above appear, contact our 24/7 live chat support or activate self-exclusion directly from your account. You should also seek advice from a mental health professional. 23bd is here for you — not to judge, but to support.

How to Activate Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is a powerful tool that keeps you away from the platform temporarily or long-term. It only takes a few minutes to activate.

Log In

Log in to your 23bd account and go to "Account Settings".

Protection Menu

From the "Responsible Play" or "Gaming Limits" menu, select "Self-Exclusion".

Choose a Duration

6 months, 1 year, 5 years, or permanent exclusion — choose what suits your needs.

Confirm

As soon as you confirm, your account will be locked and you will receive a confirmation email.

Important Information About Self-Exclusion

  • Once exclusion is activated, it cannot be lifted before the set period ends
  • Your balance remains safe during exclusion and can be withdrawn once the period ends
  • Account recovery is not possible in the case of permanent exclusion
  • Promotional emails and notifications are stopped while exclusion is active
  • If you need help, write to support: [email protected]

Safe Limits for Deposits and Withdrawals

For responsible financial management, 23bd has set specific limits. These keep you protected from overspending.

Minimum Deposit

The minimum deposit for every method is just ৳300. Deposits can be made via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and bank transfer. Start small and understand your own limits.

Minimum Withdrawal

The minimum withdrawal is ৳1,000. Withdrawals take just 15 minutes to 2 hours. Withdrawing your winnings promptly is part of responsible financial decision-making.

How Deposit Limits Work

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit from your account settings. Lowering a limit takes effect immediately, but increasing it requires a 24-hour cooling-off period — this protects you from impulsive decisions.

Questions and Answers About Responsible Play

Answers to common questions about responsible gaming are provided here.

Yes, but there are conditions. Lowering your deposit limit takes effect immediately. However, if you want to increase it, you must wait through a 24-hour cooling-off period. This delay is intentional — it protects you from depositing more money on impulse.

Your account balance stays completely safe and secure throughout the self-exclusion period. Once the exclusion period ends, you can withdraw your balance. New deposits or betting are not possible while the exclusion is active.

Time-out is a temporary break — usually from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. It is suitable for short breaks. Self-exclusion is longer-term — from a minimum of 6 months up to permanent. Self-exclusion cannot be cancelled while it is active, making it a stronger form of protection.

Start by listening without judgment and offering support. If you contact 23bd support, we can take steps to protect the account as a third party (with the person's consent). Consulting a mental health professional is also very helpful. Email us at: [email protected]

No. All services at 23bd are for people aged 21 and above only. If someone is identified as underage, their account is closed immediately and any deposited funds are returned. This rule is strictly enforced.

When you reach your set loss limit, your session ends automatically and you cannot place any new bets. You can start playing again once the set period (daily, weekly, or monthly) has ended. This feature protects you from large losses in a single day.

Enjoy the entertainment —
responsibly

Playing at 23bd is not just about hoping to win — it is an enjoyable experience. Enjoy our cricket betting, slots, and casino games, but always stay within your limits.
