My88 believes betting should be an enjoyable form of entertainment — not a source of stress or financial hardship. This page provides all the tools, information, and resources you need to play responsibly in Malaysia.
More than fine print at the bottom of a page — this is how my88 actively protects Malaysian players every day.
My88 enforces a minimum age requirement of 18 years with no exceptions. All new registrations go through a phone number verification and KYC process to ensure that no underage individuals can access the platform. Accounts suspected of belonging to underage users will be suspended immediately pending verification.
My88 provides five self-control tools accessible directly from your account settings — deposit limits, session time limits, cool-off periods, reality checks, and self-exclusion. All tools are free, easy to activate in under 2 minutes, and take effect immediately. No need to contact support to enable them.
Set the maximum amount you can deposit into your my88 account per day or per week. This limit cannot be increased immediately — there is a 24-hour review period for any increase, giving you time to reconsider before the change takes effect. Decreases to your limit, however, take effect immediately.
Set how long you want to play in a single session. When your chosen time is about to run out, my88 will display a reality check notification reminding you of your session duration, total amount played, and current balance. This helps you stay aware and make more rational decisions about your play.
If you feel you need to stop entirely — temporarily or permanently — my88's self-exclusion tool lets you close access to your account for 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. During the exclusion period, you will not receive any promotional communications and cannot register a new account.
My88 provides direct links to Malaysian gambling support resources, including Talian Nur 15999, which operates 24/7. This information is displayed prominently on the Responsible Gaming page and also in the footer of every main platform page — not buried in fine print that is hard to find.
Read and understand all the information below — it can help you or someone you care about play more safely.
Responsible gaming means participating in betting activities — whether football, slots, Live Casino, e-sports, blackjack, or lottery — in a way that remains enjoyable, controlled, and does not disrupt your daily life. It is about making conscious choices: knowing how much you can afford to spend, knowing when to stop, and understanding that betting is entertainment — not a solution to financial problems.
At my88, we believe responsible gaming is not solely the player's responsibility. As a platform, we have an equally important role to play in providing a safe environment, effective control tools, and honest information about the risks associated with gambling. This is why we invest seriously in the my88 responsible gaming programme — not because it is required of us, but because we genuinely care.
Most my88 players enjoy our platform purely for entertainment — much like Malaysians who catch EPL matches at a mamak, or play badminton on weekends. Gambling is a legitimate part of Malaysian entertainment culture when done the right way and kept in check. Problems only arise when it starts taking over your self-control — and that's exactly what my88 wants to help you avoid.
All my88 self-control tools are accessible through the "Account Settings" menu once you are logged in. Below is a detailed breakdown of each available tool:
Set the maximum amount (in RM) you can deposit into your my88 account within the chosen period.
Set how long (in minutes or hours) you want to play in a single continuous session before a notification appears.
Set a time interval (every 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours) to receive a summary of your current session, including time played and total amount wagered.
Temporarily suspend access to your my88 account for a short period — 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days — without permanently closing your account.
For more serious situations, self-exclusion allows you to fully block access to your my88 account for a duration of your choice. During this period, you will not receive any promotional emails or messages, and you will be unable to register a new my88 account. Any remaining funds in your account will be returned to you.
Problem gambling rarely happens overnight. It typically develops gradually and can be spotted early if you know what to look for. Here are some warning signs to watch out for in yourself:
Playing responsibly doesn't mean you can't have fun — in fact, it's what ensures you can keep enjoying betting over the long term without it becoming a problem. Here are some practical tips for my88 players in Malaysia:
Whether you enjoy Malaysia Super League, EPL, Live Casino, MLBB e-sports, slot jackpots, or lottery on my88 — all of it can be enjoyed safely as long as you stick to the principles above. Hundreds of thousands of Malaysian my88 players do exactly that every day without any issues, because they know their own limits.
Sometimes, a person struggling with a gambling problem may not realise it, or may be unwilling to admit they need help. If you are concerned about the betting habits of someone you care about — a family member, partner, or friend — here are some steps you can take:
Remember that recovery from problem gambling is a journey that takes time and support. Patience and consistency are key. Talian Nur 15999 also provides counselling services for family members of individuals struggling with gambling problems — you don't have to go through this alone.
