Player Wellbeing

Responsible Gambling
at my36

Gaming should be enjoyable — full stop. At my36, responsible gambling is not a legal disclaimer buried in fine print. It is a core operating principle that shapes everything from how we design our platform to how we respond when a player needs support. If you ever feel that gambling is becoming more than entertainment, help is always available.

Gaming Is Entertainment — It Should Stay That Way

my36 serves Malaysian players from Kuala Lumpur to Kota Kinabalu who enjoy online casino games and sports betting as a leisure activity. We want every session to be fun, and that means having the right safeguards in place before anyone ever needs them.

We treat it as infrastructure, not afterthought
Responsible gambling tools are built into every account from registration — not added later as an optional setting tucked away in a menu.
We monitor for signs of harm proactively
Our team reviews unusual gaming patterns — extended sessions, rapid escalation of deposit amounts, or erratic betting behaviour — and may reach out to offer support.
We enforce 21+ strictly — no exceptions
Every account goes through KYC age verification. We close any account belonging to a person under 21 and refund deposits subject to fraud review.
Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you can deposit. Once the limit is reached, no further top-ups are accepted until the period resets. Limits take effect immediately when lowered; increases have a 24-hour cooling-off period.

Loss Limits

Define a maximum net loss threshold for any given period. Once you hit that figure, betting is suspended for the remainder of the period regardless of your remaining balance. A practical firewall against chasing losses.

Session Time Reminders

Configure in-session alerts that notify you at set intervals — 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours — showing how long you have been playing and your net account movement for that session. A gentle nudge to stay in control.

Reality Checks

Opt in to periodic pop-up summaries that appear during active play, showing elapsed session time, total wagered, total won, and net position. Reality checks help you make conscious decisions rather than playing on autopilot.

Every Tool You Need, Already In Your Account

No additional sign-ups or third-party apps needed. These tools are built directly into your my36 account settings and can be activated at any time.

Instant Effect
Deposit Limit Controls

Access Account Settings → Responsible Gambling → Deposit Limits. Choose daily, weekly, or monthly. Enter your preferred MYR figure. Reductions apply instantly. Increases require 24 hours to take effect — a deliberate cooling-off safeguard built into the system.

Instant Effect
Loss Limit Controls

Set a maximum net loss per day, week, or month in RM. When your net gaming loss reaches this threshold within the configured period, the Platform automatically suspends further wagering until the next period begins. Cannot be raised mid-period.

Configurable
Session Time Limits

Configure a maximum session duration. When your session reaches the limit, the Platform displays a summary of your activity and prompts you to confirm whether you wish to continue or end the session. No automatic forced logout — the choice remains yours.

Opt-In
Wager Limits

Set a per-bet or per-spin maximum wager limit to prevent placing stakes that fall outside your intended budget. Wager limits complement deposit and loss limits as an additional layer of session-level control for higher-intensity gaming products.

Temporary Pause
Take a Break

Need a short break without full self-exclusion? The Take a Break feature allows you to suspend your account for 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, or 1 month. During this period, login is disabled and no promotional communications are sent.

Permanent Option
Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is a formal, binding restriction on your account. Once activated, you cannot access your account, deposit funds, or receive promotional offers for the duration chosen. Contact our support team — it takes effect within 24 hours of request.

How to Request Self-Exclusion on my36

Self-exclusion is the most comprehensive responsible gambling tool my36 offers. It is appropriate for players who feel they cannot control their gambling activity through softer tools like deposit limits or breaks. A self-exclusion is a serious, binding request — please consider it carefully, because reinstatement requires a formal review process and a mandatory cooling-off period.

  1. 1
    Contact the my36 support team via Live Chat, WhatsApp, Telegram, or by emailing [email protected]. Clearly state that you are requesting a self-exclusion and specify whether you want a time-limited exclusion (minimum 6 months) or a permanent exclusion.
  2. 2
    Our support agent will verify your identity against your registered account details to confirm the request is coming from the account holder. This step protects against third parties requesting exclusions on your behalf.
  3. 3
    Your account will be suspended within 24 hours of the confirmed request. You will receive a written confirmation. Any pending withdrawal of Real Money Balance will be processed to your registered payment method within our standard withdrawal timeframe.
  4. 4
    During the exclusion period, all marketing communications from my36 will be suppressed. You will not receive promotional emails, bonus notifications, or re-engagement messages. Attempting to register a new account during an exclusion period is a breach of our Terms and will result in immediate closure of any new account.
  5. 5
    To request reinstatement after a time-limited exclusion has expired, you must contact support and complete a mandatory 7-day cooling-off review. Reinstatement is not automatic at expiry — it requires your active confirmation and a responsible gambling assessment.

If you are seeking self-exclusion because gambling is causing you distress, we encourage you to also reach out to the support organisations listed further down this page. Professional counselling and helpline support are available to players across Malaysia at no cost.

Minimum Age Requirement
21+
Years of Age — No Exceptions

my36 operates a strict 21-and-above age policy across all products and markets. Every new account is subject to KYC identity verification, which includes confirmation of date of birth against a valid identity document. Accounts found to belong to players under 21 are closed immediately, deposits refunded subject to fraud screening, and any winnings forfeited. If you are under 21, please leave this site.

Recognising Problem Gambling Behaviour

Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of income, background, or how long they've been playing. The signs are not always obvious — to yourself or those around you. Here are common indicators worth taking seriously.

If you recognise these signs

Please use our self-exclusion or Take a Break tool, or reach out to our support team or one of the organisations listed below. Acknowledging the problem is the hardest step — and the most important one.

Spending more time or money on gambling than you originally intended to, repeatedly.
Chasing losses — continuing to bet in an attempt to recover money you have already lost.
Feeling irritable, anxious, or restless when you try to cut back or stop gambling.
Gambling as a way to cope with stress, anxiety, depression, or boredom rather than for entertainment.
Hiding your gambling activity from family or friends, or lying about how much you have bet or lost.
Borrowing money, selling possessions, or using funds meant for essential expenses (rent, food, bills) to fund gambling.
Neglecting work, studies, relationships, or personal responsibilities because of time or money spent gambling.
Making promises to yourself or others that you will stop or cut back, but finding that you cannot follow through.
Feeling that you need to bet increasing amounts of money to get the same level of excitement.
Experiencing financial difficulties — unpaid bills, debt, or inability to meet basic needs — directly linked to gambling spending.

A Few Honest Questions to Ask Yourself

If you answer "yes" to several of the following questions, it may be worth speaking to a support professional. There is no judgement here — these questions exist solely to help you reflect honestly on your relationship with gambling.

Q1 Have you ever gambled for longer than you planned to, or spent more than you intended in a single session?
Q2 Have you ever returned to gamble again after losing, with the intention of winning back what you lost?
Q3 Do you sometimes feel that gambling is the only activity that gives you excitement or relieves stress?
Q4 Has gambling ever caused financial strain — difficulty paying bills, rent, or other essential expenses?
Q5 Have you borrowed money from family, friends, or financial institutions to fund gambling activities?
Q6 Have you ever hidden the extent of your gambling from someone close to you?
Q7 Have family members or friends expressed concern about your gambling habits more than once?
Q8 Have you tried to stop or significantly cut back on gambling but found it difficult to maintain?
Q9 Has gambling ever negatively affected your work performance, studies, or important relationships?
Q10 Do you feel a sense of urgency or compulsion to gamble that is hard to resist, even when you know you should not?
If you answered "yes" to 3 or more questions: We strongly encourage you to use the self-exclusion or Take a Break tools on your account, and to contact a professional support organisation. The resources listed below are free, confidential, and available to players across Malaysia.

These are the operational commitments that guide every decision at my36 when it comes to player welfare and responsible gaming.

All accounts must complete KYC identity verification before withdrawals are processed. Date of birth is confirmed against official identity documents — MyKad, driver's licence, or passport — to enforce the 21+ age requirement without exception.

Proactive Pattern Monitoring

Responsible Marketing Practices

my36 does not send promotional communications to self-excluded players, players on cooling-off periods, or players who have opted out of marketing. All promotions clearly state applicable wagering requirements, eligibility criteria, and responsible gambling reminders.

Every bonus and promotion on my36 is accompanied by clearly written terms in plain English — rollover requirements, expiry windows, and eligible games. No hidden conditions applied retrospectively. Players in Malaysia can make fully informed decisions before claiming any offer.

Staff Training on Problem Gambling

All customer support agents at my36 receive training on problem gambling recognition, responsible gambling tools, and the appropriate referral of at-risk players to professional support resources. Our team is equipped to respond with empathy and practical assistance.
