At crikex, we believe that gaming should always be a source of entertainment — never stress, financial hardship, or personal harm. Our responsible gaming programme gives every Pakistani player the knowledge, tools, and support they need to stay in control. Whether you enjoy cricket betting, live casino, or slots, crikex is committed to keeping it fun, safe, and fair for everyone.
crikex takes responsible gaming seriously — not just as a regulatory obligation, but as a genuine commitment to the well-being of every player on our platform. From Karachi to Lahore, Islamabad to Faisalabad, crikex serves hundreds of thousands of Pakistani cricket fans and gaming enthusiasts. We owe every one of them a platform that is designed with their safety in mind.
Responsible gaming at crikex means giving players full transparency over their spending, clear limits they can set themselves, and the ability to take a break — or stop entirely — whenever they choose. Our in-platform tools are available around the clock, require no waiting period to activate, and are honoured immediately once requested.
We also work closely with internationally recognised responsible gaming bodies whose frameworks guide our internal policies. crikex staff receive regular training on problem gambling identification, and our customer support team is equipped to escalate any player welfare concern without delay.
Remember: Gambling is not a reliable way to make money. The house always has an edge. Set your budget before you play, stick to it, and treat every session as entertainment — not income.
crikex puts powerful responsible gaming tools directly in your hands. Access all of the following from within your crikex account settings at any time — no waiting, no paperwork required.
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit caps in PKR to keep your spending within a budget you are comfortable with. Limits can be reduced instantly; increases take 24 hours to take effect for your protection.
Define the maximum amount in PKR you are willing to lose over a set period. Once your loss limit is reached, crikex will automatically restrict further play until the limit period resets.
Choose how long each gaming session lasts. When your session timer expires, crikex will display a clear notification and log you out automatically so you take a proper break.
Need a short break from gaming? Activate a cooling-off period of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Your account will be temporarily suspended and you will not receive any promotional communications during this time.
For players who feel they need a longer break, crikex offers self-exclusion for 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanently. Once activated, your account is locked and cannot be reopened during the exclusion period.
Enable periodic pop-up reminders showing how long you have been playing and your net win/loss for the session. These reality checks help you make informed decisions about whether to continue playing.
Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of income, education, or background. It develops gradually and is often difficult to recognise from the inside. The following warning signs may indicate that gambling has moved beyond healthy entertainment and is starting to cause harm.
If you recognise three or more of these patterns in your own behaviour, we strongly encourage you to speak to our support team, activate a cooling-off period, or reach out to a professional counselling service. You are not alone, and help is available.
crikex Support: Our 24/7 live chat team is trained to handle responsible gaming concerns with complete confidentiality and without judgement. Reach us anytime from within your crikex account.
crikex makes self-exclusion as simple and frictionless as possible. We never try to talk you out of it or delay the process. If you decide you need a break from responsible gaming, follow these steps and your exclusion will be active within minutes.
During any self-exclusion period, all marketing communications from crikex will be halted immediately. Any bonus funds in your account at the time of exclusion will be forfeited in accordance with the crikex Terms & Conditions. Your real-money balance will remain available for withdrawal.
crikex operates a strict minimum age policy of 21 years. This is not a formality — it is a firm requirement enforced at every stage of the registration and verification process. All new crikex accounts undergo Know Your Customer (KYC) identity verification before any real-money deposits or withdrawals are permitted. Players are required to submit a valid government-issued photo ID (CNIC or passport) and proof of address as part of this process.
If crikex identifies or suspects that a registered account belongs to someone under the age of 21, the account is suspended immediately pending investigation. Any funds on the account are held during this period. We take underage gambling extremely seriously and invest continuously in our verification systems to prevent it.
The following questions are designed to help you reflect honestly on your gambling behaviour. This is not a clinical diagnostic tool — it is a personal reflection exercise to help you recognise early warning patterns before they escalate.
If you answer "Yes" to two or more questions, we recommend activating a cooling-off period on your crikex account and speaking to our support team.
Honest answers only. No one else will see your responses. This is purely for your own awareness and well-being.
1 Have you ever bet more money than you could afford to lose?
2 Have you ever borrowed money or sold belongings to fund gambling?
3 Do you feel irritable or anxious when you are unable to gamble?

5 Have you tried to cut down or stop gambling but found it difficult?
