View FAQAt 1988ric, online gaming is a form of entertainment — much like watching a film or attending a concert. It should bring enjoyment, not stress. That is why we place responsible gaming at the core of how we operate, not merely as a side rule tucked away in a corner of our website.
We understand that most of our players play for entertainment, to pass the time, and to test their luck every now and then. However, we also recognize that a small number of individuals may struggle to control their gambling habits. For this group, 1988ric is committed to providing practical tools, clear information, and genuine support — without any judgment.
This page details all the resources and mechanisms we provide to help you play in a healthy, controlled, and enjoyable manner. Take a moment to read and understand the rights and options available to you as a 1988ric player.
All control tools listed on this page are available free of charge within your account. No fees, no penalties — we believe this is every player's basic right.
1988ric provides a range of control tools that you can activate directly from your account dashboard at any time you feel it is necessary. We believe that informed and in-control players are happier players in the long run.
You can set deposit limits according to the timeframe that best suits your financial situation. These limits work automatically — once the set limit is reached, our system will stop any further deposits until the next reset period begins. To increase your limit, a 24-hour cooling-off period applies to ensure your decision is considered rather than impulsive.
Unlike a deposit limit, a loss limit focuses on how much money you are willing to lose within a given period. Once this limit is reached, your account will not allow any further wagering until the next period begins. This is a highly effective tool for those who want to enjoy gaming without worrying about excessive losses.
Set a time limit for each gaming session. Our system will remind you when your session is nearing its end and will automatically terminate the session once the limit is reached. This feature helps you maintain a healthy balance between entertainment and your daily responsibilities.
For those who feel the need for a complete break from the platform, the Self-Exclusion feature allows you to exclude yourself from all gaming activities for a chosen period — ranging from 24 hours, one week, one month, three months, six months, up to one year or permanently. During the exclusion period, your account will be fully blocked and you will not receive any marketing communications from us.
The Reality Check feature sends periodic reminders during your active session, displaying how long you have been playing and a summary of your current session activity. These reminders can be set to appear every 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or one hour — the choice is yours.
How to access: Log in to your account → Account Settings → Responsible Gambling. All control tools can be activated in under two minutes.
Gambling problems rarely appear overnight — they typically develop gradually without being noticed. Recognizing early warning signs is the single most important first step toward getting help before the situation becomes more serious. Here are some signs to watch for in yourself or someone you care about.
If you identify two or more of the above signs in yourself, we encourage you to contact our support team or use the Self-Exclusion feature now. There is nothing to be ashamed of — this is a brave and responsible course of action.
1988ric takes the protection of minors extremely seriously. Our platform is exclusively for individuals aged 18 and above. We apply a rigorous identity verification (KYC) process to ensure no underage individuals can access our services.
If you share a device with children or younger family members, we recommend the following steps to ensure they cannot access online gaming platforms:
If you suspect that an underage individual has accessed your account or our platform, please contact our support team immediately at [email protected] so we can take the appropriate action.
You do not have to face gambling problems alone. The 1988ric support team is trained to provide initial guidance and connect you with appropriate resources. In addition to our internal support, there are also professional organisations that can offer more in-depth assistance.
Our customer support team is available via live chat on the platform 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You can confidentially discuss your concerns, and we will help you activate the appropriate control tools or process your Self-Exclusion request promptly.
If gambling problems have affected your finances, we recommend seeking advice from a certified financial professional. Managing debt and restructuring your personal finances is an important step in a comprehensive recovery process.
All conversations with the 1988ric support team regarding responsible gaming issues are fully confidential. Your information will not be shared with anyone without your consent, unless required by law.
Self-Assessment
Are You Playing Healthily?
Answer the following questions honestly with yourself. This is not a formal test, but it can help you assess your relationship with gambling.
Have you ever played beyond the time or money limits you set for yourself before starting?
Have you ever hidden the amount of time or money you spent gambling from someone you care about?
Have you ever played to escape problems, stress, or negative feelings such as sadness or anxiety?
Have you ever tried to chase back money you had lost by continuing to gamble more during the same session or a subsequent one?
Has gambling ever caused financial difficulties, conflicts in relationships, or affected your work or academic performance?
Do you find it difficult to stop playing even when you intended to, or feel anxious when you are unable to access the platform?
Interpretation: If you answered "yes" to two or more of the questions above, we encourage you to contact our support team or use the control tools we provide. Remember — asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
