At Bombay Book, entertainment always comes first. Online cricket and casino gaming should be an enjoyable pastime never a source of financial stress, personal harm or family difficulty. This Responsible Gaming Policy explains our commitment to safe play, the tools available to help you stay in control, and where to find support if gaming stops being fun.
1. Our Commitment to Safe Play
Bombay Book, as a trusted online cricket ID provider, is committed to promoting responsible gaming across all connected platforms. We believe betting should be treated as entertainment with a cost like a movie ticket not as a way to earn income, recover losses or solve financial problems. We actively encourage every user to play with discipline, set personal limits and take regular breaks.
2. Strictly 18+ – Age Verification
Our services are strictly intended for users aged 18 years and above. We may require identity or age verification (KYC) before activating any cricket ID, betting ID or casino ID. Accounts found to be operated by minors will be terminated immediately and any associated activity voided. Parents and guardians are encouraged to use parental-control software and keep login credentials secure so minors cannot access gaming platforms.
3. Golden Rules of Responsible Gaming
We ask every Bombay Book user to follow these principles:
- Set a budget before you play decide what you can afford to lose and never cross it.
- Never chase losses accepting a losing day is part of responsible play; betting more to recover losses leads to bigger problems.
- Bet only with money you can afford to lose never use money meant for rent, bills, food, education or family needs.
- Never borrow to bet loans, credit cards or borrowed money should never fund gaming.
- Set time limits take regular breaks and balance gaming with work, family and other activities.
- Don’t play under emotional stress avoid betting when upset, depressed, or under the influence of alcohol.
- Start small especially while learning, keep selections modest and treat outcomes as entertainment.
4. Tools to Help You Stay in Control
Contact our 24/7 WhatsApp support team to use any of the following responsible gaming tools:
- Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly or monthly deposit caps on your account.
- Betting Limits: Restrict the maximum amount you can place on selections.
- Time-Out / Cooling-Off: Take a short break of 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days during which your ID access is paused.
- Self-Exclusion: Request longer-term exclusion (for example 6 months or more) if you feel your gaming is becoming a problem. During self-exclusion your ID will be deactivated and we will not send you promotional messages.
- Reality Checks: Ask our team for periodic activity summaries so you can review your time and spending honestly.
5. Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Ask yourself honestly do any of these apply to you?
- Spending more money or time on betting than you planned
- Betting to recover previous losses or to pay debts
- Hiding your betting activity from family or friends
- Borrowing money, selling belongings or missing bill payments to bet
- Feeling restless, irritable or anxious when not betting
- Neglecting work, studies, family or health because of gaming
- Betting with money meant for essential needs
If you answered yes to any of the above, we strongly encourage you to use our limit and self-exclusion tools and to seek support.
6. Getting Help & Support Resources
If gaming has stopped being entertainment, help is available and reaching out is a sign of strength:
- Talk to our team: Message our 24/7 WhatsApp support to set limits or activate self-exclusion no judgment, complete confidentiality.
- Talk to someone you trust: A family member, friend or counsellor can be the first step.
- Professional support: Consider speaking with a mental-health professional or a problem-gambling support organisation. International resources such as Gamblers Anonymous (gamblersanonymous.org) and GamCare (gamcare.org.uk) offer free guidance, self-assessment tools and support meetings.
7. Protecting Minors
We take underage gambling extremely seriously. Beyond mandatory 18+ verification, we recommend users: keep devices and passwords locked, never leave gaming platforms logged in on shared devices, and use filtering software (such as parental-control apps) to block gambling content from children’s devices.
8. Our Marketing Promise
Bombay Book does not knowingly market to minors or to self-excluded users. Our communications never present betting as a solution to financial problems or as a guaranteed source of income.
9. Policy Updates
We may update this Responsible Gaming Policy from time to time. The “Last Updated” date reflects the most recent version. Continued use of our services constitutes acceptance of the current policy.
