At qq188, the enjoyment of playing must go hand in hand with your wellbeing. We provide a range of tools, guides, and support to ensure every member can enjoy online entertainment in a healthy, controlled, and responsible way.
Important reminder: Online gaming is entertainment, not a source of income. Set your limits, play within your means, and seek help if needed. qq188 is always here for you.
Qq188 believes that the best entertainment is safe entertainment. Since the platform launched, responsible gaming has never been just a slogan — it is embedded in every decision we make, from platform design to the training of our customer support team.
We understand that for most members, playing at qq188 is a way to unwind, have fun, and enjoy the thrill of gaming after a long day. That is a great thing. But we also recognise that for some, gaming can become more than just entertainment — and when that happens, we want to be the first platform to help.
Qq188's Responsible Gaming Policy is built on three core pillars: prevention through easy-to-use control tools, early detection through a responsive monitoring system, and ongoing support through a trained team and support resources that are readily accessible to all members in Malaysia.
qq188 only allows individuals aged 18 and above to register and play. Age verification is a mandatory part of our KYC process.
Problem gambling occurs when gaming activity begins to interfere with a person's daily life — their finances, relationships, work, or mental health. It is not a matter of weak willpower or lack of self-control. It is a health issue that can affect anyone, regardless of background or economic status.
There is a big difference between playing for fun and playing that has become a problem. Healthy play means you play with money you can afford to lose, within a set time, and you can stop at any time without feeling pressured. Problem gambling occurs when the urge to play starts to control you — not the other way around.
Qq188 takes a proactive approach to this issue. Our system actively monitors gaming patterns that may indicate a problem, and our team is trained to identify and reach out to members who may need assistance.
Recognise these signs early so you or someone you care about can get help before the problem becomes more serious:
If you identify yourself in one or more of the signs above, do not ignore that feeling. The most important first step is to acknowledge that help may be needed.
Qq188 provides a full suite of self-control tools that you can access directly from your account settings. All tools are free, easy to activate, and take effect immediately once you confirm your selection.
Set the maximum amount you can deposit within a given time period. This limit takes effect immediately and cannot be increased within a 24-hour cooling-off period.
Set the maximum amount you can lose per day, week, or month. Once the limit is reached, you will not be able to continue playing until the limit period resets.
Limit how long you can play in a single session. The platform will remind you when your session time is nearly up and will automatically log you out when the limit is reached.
Take a break from 24 hours to 30 days. During this period, your account will be temporarily suspended and you will not receive any promotional communications.
Block your account permanently or for a long-term period (6 months, 1 year, 5 years). This is the strongest option for those who need a more serious break.
Opt out of receiving any promotional emails, bonus offers, or notifications that may encourage you to play more than you planned.
To access any of the tools above, log in to your account and go to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming. Our 24/7 support team is also ready to help you activate any limits via live chat.
Deposit limits and loss limits are among the most effective tools for keeping your finances in check. Here is a step-by-step guide to using them effectively:
Before setting any limits, take a moment to calculate how much disposable money you are comfortable using for entertainment each month — money you can truly afford to lose without affecting your daily needs.
Go to Settings → Responsible Gaming → Financial Limits. You will see options to set deposit and loss limits across various time periods.
Enter the amount you have decided on. We recommend starting with a strict daily limit, then adjusting as you see fit. Limits can be lowered immediately, but raising them requires a waiting period to protect you.
Once saved, limits take effect immediately. You will receive a confirmation email and an in-app notification. Keep a record of these limits for your own reference.
Limits cannot be increased within a 24-hour cooling-off period following the last change. This is a safety measure to ensure your decision is a considered one, not an impulsive one.
A cooling-off break is an option to temporarily restrict access to your account when you feel you need a break from gaming. It differs from self-exclusion in that it is temporary, and your account will be restored automatically once the break period ends.
Qq188 offers the following self-exclusion periods: 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, 2 weeks, and 30 days. During this period:
A cooling-off break can be activated through your account settings or by contacting customer support via live chat. If you request a break through support, we will process the request within 24 hours.
Self-exclusion is a stronger measure than a cooling-off break. It is suitable for those who feel they need a longer and more serious pause from online gaming activity.
When you choose self-exclusion at qq188:
Self-exclusion is a serious decision that cannot be reversed. We encourage you to speak with our support team before taking this step so you are fully informed about the process.
Answer the following questions honestly. If you answer "Yes" to three or more questions, we recommend speaking with someone who can help.
1Have you ever played longer or spent more money than you originally planned?
2Have you ever tried to win back money you lost by playing more?
3Have you ever hidden your gaming activity from family members or friends?
4Have you ever used money meant for other needs — such as bills, rent, or food — to fund your gaming?
5Do you feel anxious or uneasy when you try to stop or cut back on playing?
6Have you ever borrowed money or sold something to fund your gaming?
7Do thoughts about playing interfere with your focus at work, school, or when spending time with family?
There are no wrong answers in this assessment. It is simply a guide to help you reflect on your relationship with gaming activity. If you have concerns, reach out to our team — we are here to listen, not to judge.
If you or someone you know needs help with a gambling problem, the following support resources are available. Remember — asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
