Know the Warning Signs Before It's Too Late
Recognising the early signs is the first step toward getting help. Watch out for the following signs in yourself or someone you care about:
Spending more time playing than planned, or neglecting work, family, or school commitments because of online gaming.
Feeling compelled to recover lost money, borrowing funds to play, or using savings and money set aside for daily needs to gamble.
Feeling restless, irritable, or depressed when not playing. Hiding gaming activities from family and close friends.
How to Set the Right Limits for Yourself
Good time and budget management are essential for a healthy and enjoyable gaming experience. Here are practical tips you can follow:
Play Time Limits
- Set a daily time limit before you start playing — for example, no more than one to two hours per day.
- Use your phone’s timer as a reminder to avoid losing track of time.
- Take a break of at least 10 minutes every hour to rest your mind and body.
- Avoid playing late at night or when you're tired, as decision-making becomes less rational.
Budget & Deposit Limits
- Decide on a monthly entertainment budget you can afford and never exceed it.
- Treat money spent on gaming as an entertainment expense, not as an investment or a way to earn income.
- Avoid playing when you're facing financial difficulties or high emotional stress.
- Keep a monthly record of your gaming expenses to monitor your usage patterns.
Self-Control Tools Available at 834
834 users can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits through their account settings. Limits take effect immediately and help you manage your entertainment spending in MYR more effectively.
If you feel you need a break from the platform, our cooling-off feature lets you temporarily suspend access to your account. You can set the break period based on your needs, from a few days to several weeks.
For users who feel they need to stop playing for an extended period, 834 offers a self-exclusion option. Your account will be fully closed and inaccessible for the duration you specify. Contact our support team to find out more.
Minor Protection
834 enforces a strict policy that this platform is for users aged 18 and above only. We carry out identity verification (KYC) during registration to ensure no underage individuals can access the platform.
We encourage parents and guardians to take the following steps to protect their children:
- Never share your 834 account login details or password with anyone.
- Install parental control software on devices shared with family members.
- Talk to your children about the risks of gambling and the importance of playing responsibly.
- Regularly monitor your children's internet use, especially at night.
If you suspect any account is being used by an underage individual, please contact the 834 support team immediately for further action.
Life Balance Comes First
Online gaming is a form of entertainment, just like watching movies or playing sports. It should only take up a small part of your free time, not become the main focus of your life.
834 encourages all users to maintain a healthy life balance in the following ways:
- Spend time with family and friends outside of online activities.
- Keep up with hobbies and physical activities that bring you joy and keep you healthy.
- Make sure your work, studies, and financial responsibilities are taken care of before you play.
- Remember that wins are never guaranteed — enjoy the gaming process without stress about winning.
