Will I get my balance back if I self-exclude?

Yes. Even after self-exclusion, you can withdraw any remaining balance in your account. We do not freeze your balance after self-exclusion — it remains entirely yours.

How long does it take to increase a deposit limit?

For security, reducing limits takes effect immediately, but increasing limits becomes effective after 24 hours. This rule prevents emotionally driven decisions.

Can I log in during a cooling-off period?

Yes, you can log in during a cooling-off period and view your account details. However, betting and deposits will not be available. Withdrawals are still permitted.

Can I open a new account after self-exclusion?

No. During the self-exclusion period, the same person cannot open a new account. Our system ensures this through identity verification. This rule exists for your protection.

Will I lose my bonuses if I use responsible gaming tools?

Setting limits may affect bonus benefits, but bonuses earned during self-exclusion or cooling-off remain preserved. Contact our support team for details.

Can I request self-exclusion on behalf of someone else?

You cannot directly close another person's account, but you can inform our support team of the situation. We'll attempt to take appropriate action.

ad66 | Responsible Gaming — Play Safe and Stay in Control

1. Introduction — Gaming Should Be Fun, Not a Burden

At ad66, responsible gaming is more than a policy — it's part of our culture. We want every player to enjoy themselves within their means, free from financial or emotional stress.

Online betting is a form of entertainment — much like going to the cinema or dining out. It's not a source of income; it's a leisure activity. When betting starts causing stress instead of enjoyment, that's a sign you may be at risk of crossing the line.

The ad66 responsible gaming program helps you understand and respect your limits. We see every player as a person, not just a user. That's why our platform includes multiple protective tools, self-assessment checks, and direct support options.

Responsible gaming doesn't mean less fun — it ensures the fun lasts longer and stays sustainable.

2. ad66's Responsible Gaming Principles

Ad66 upholds a set of core principles for responsible gaming that are reflected in every aspect of the platform.

Transparency: We are transparent about all risks involved — nothing is hidden.
Control power: Every player can control their betting limits, session time, and deposit amounts.
Age verification: Access by anyone under 18 is strictly prohibited and age verification is actively enforced.
Active support: If our team notices unusual patterns in a player's behaviour, we will reach out to them.
Quick response: Self-exclusion or limit-setting requests become effective within a maximum of 24 hours.
No pressure: We never encourage you to bet more or discourage you from self-excluding.

These principles aren't just on paper — they show up in our work every day. Responsible gaming at ad66 is an ongoing commitment.

3. Protection Tools — You're in Control

Ad66 offers a range of powerful protective tools that you can activate at any time — no complicated steps required.

Deposit Limit

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits. Reducing limits takes effect immediately; increasing limits becomes effective after 24 hours.

Session time limit

Set a limit on how long you play in one session. Once the time is up, your account will log out automatically.

Cooling-Off Period

Take a temporary break from 1 day to 6 weeks. Betting features will be disabled during this time, but your account will remain active.

Self-Exclusion

Close your account for 6 months to 5 years, or permanently. Once this decision is made, it cannot easily be reversed.

Loss Limit

Set in advance the maximum amount you can lose in a specific timeframe. Once you reach the limit, you cannot place more bets.

Reality check

You'll receive pop-up notifications at regular intervals — a summary of how long you've been playing and how much you've spent.

To activate these tools, go to Account Settings > Responsible Gaming, or submit a request via support chat.
