Responsible Gaming at Six Gama — Play Smart, Stay in Control

1 What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming is the practice of approaching online gaming and sports betting — whether that is cricket betting, PSL markets, slots or fish games — as a form of paid entertainment with a budget attached, rather than as a strategy for making money. It means setting clear boundaries on how much you spend and how long you play, and sticking to those boundaries even when the games are going well.

At Six Gama, we believe every player has the right to enjoy the platform on their own terms, with full access to the tools and information needed to keep gaming in a healthy place. This is not just a box-ticking exercise — it is something our team actively builds into the platform because we want players to keep coming back for the right reasons: because they are enjoying themselves, not because they feel they have to.

Responsible gaming is most effective when it is proactive. The tools on this page work best when you use them before a problem develops, not after. Take five minutes now to set a deposit limit or a session reminder. Future you will appreciate it.

2 Treating Gaming as Entertainment

Think about how you approach watching a PSL match at a café with friends, or going to see a film. You enjoy the experience knowing the money spent on it is gone — and that is fine, because the enjoyment itself was the point. Online gaming on Six Gama works the same way. The PKR you set aside for gaming is the price of the entertainment, and wins are a pleasant bonus rather than the goal.

This mindset shift matters more than any specific tool or feature. Players who genuinely treat gaming as entertainment tend to spend less time chasing losses, feel less stress after a losing session, and enjoy winning moments more fully — because the pressure of needing to win is not there.

Some practical habits that reinforce this mindset:

• Decide your budget before you open the app. Pick an amount you are comfortable spending completely, then stick to it regardless of what happens during the session.
• Never chase losses. If you have hit your budget for the day, close the app. Tomorrow is another day. Trying to win back losses in the same session almost always makes the situation worse.
• Balance gaming with other activities. Cricket, football, catching up with family, or watching a drama — a varied leisure routine keeps gaming in its proper place.
• Take regular breaks. Even a five-minute break every hour helps you stay aware of how much time and money you are spending.

3 Setting Deposit Limits in PKR

Deposit limits are the single most effective responsible gaming tool available on Six Gama. By capping how much PKR can enter your account over a given period, you remove the possibility of overspending entirely — the platform simply will not accept further deposits once the limit is reached.

You can set limits in three ways:

• Daily limit: Maximum PKR you can deposit in any 24-hour period.
• Weekly limit: Maximum PKR across a rolling seven-day window.
• Monthly limit: Maximum PKR across a rolling 30-day window.

You can set all three simultaneously — for example, a daily limit of PKR 500, a weekly limit of PKR 2,000 and a monthly limit of PKR 6,000. The strictest applicable limit at any point is always the one that applies.

To set or adjust a deposit limit, go to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming → Deposit Limits in the Six Gama app or website. Reducing a limit takes effect immediately. If you want to increase a limit, a minimum cooling-off period applies — this is intentional, to give you time to make sure you genuinely want to increase your spending cap rather than acting on impulse after a tough session.

4 Self-Exclusion — When You Need a Break

Sometimes a deposit limit is not enough and you need to step away from the platform entirely for a period. Six Gama's self-exclusion tool is built for exactly this situation. It is not a sign of weakness to use it — it is the opposite. Recognising that you need a break and taking action is one of the most responsible things a player can do.

Self-exclusion on Six Gama works as follows:

• Temporary exclusion: Choose a period of one week, one month, three months or six months. During this time your account is suspended, deposits are blocked, and all promotional communications are stopped.
• Indefinite exclusion: If you need to step away without a fixed return date, you can request an open-ended exclusion. Reactivating requires a deliberate process to ensure the decision to return is made with a clear head.
• Immediate effect: Self-exclusion activates as soon as the request is submitted. There is no delay, no confirmation window that can be cancelled on impulse.

To activate self-exclusion, contact the Six Gama support team through in-app live chat and request it directly. Our team will process it without judgement and without asking you to justify your decision. If you are finding it hard to stop on your own, please reach out — taking that step is the right one.

5 Session Time & Reality Check Tools

Time moves differently when you are deep in a slots session or watching cricket odds shift during a live T20 match. Session time tools exist because it is genuinely easy to lose track of how long you have been playing — and that lost awareness is often where overspending starts.

• Session time limit: Set a maximum session length in Account Settings. When your session reaches that duration, you will receive an on-screen alert. You can choose to continue or log out — the choice is yours, but the nudge ensures you are making a conscious decision rather than drifting.
• Reality check notifications: Every 30, 60 or 90 minutes — your choice — a brief overlay appears showing your net position for the session and how long you have been playing. It takes two seconds to dismiss and then you carry on, but those two seconds of awareness genuinely help.
• Balance visibility: Your current PKR balance is always visible in the app header. Keep an eye on it, not just the bets in front of you.

Combining a session time limit with a deposit limit creates a two-layer protection that covers both the money dimension and the time dimension of responsible play. We recommend every player on Six Gama sets both before their first session.

6 Warning Signs to Watch For

Problem gaming rarely appears suddenly. It tends to develop gradually, and the earlier warning signs are spotted — by yourself or by someone close to you — the easier it is to address. Here are the behaviours that suggest gaming may be moving from healthy entertainment into something more concerning:

• Spending more than planned: Consistently depositing more than your original budget for a session or a month.
• Chasing losses: Continuing to play primarily to recover money already lost, rather than for enjoyment.
• Hiding activity: Feeling the need to conceal how much time or money you spend on gaming from family or friends.
• Borrowing to fund gaming: Taking money from household expenses, savings, or borrowing from others to make deposits.
• Neglecting responsibilities: Missing work obligations, family commitments or daily responsibilities because of time spent gaming.
• Mood linked to results: Feeling irritable, anxious or low when not playing, or after losses — beyond the normal frustration anyone feels.
• Failed attempts to cut back: Trying to reduce the time or money spent on gaming and finding you cannot stick to the limits you set for yourself.

If you recognise two or more of these in your own behaviour, it is worth taking a pause and honestly evaluating your relationship with gaming. Using the self-exclusion tool or talking to someone you trust are both strong first steps.

7 Quick Self-Check — How Are You Playing?

Run through these questions honestly. There are no scores and no judgements — it is just a moment to check in with yourself about how gaming fits into your life right now.

8 Keeping Younger People Safe

Six Gama is strictly for adults aged 18 and above. We verify age at registration and our team monitors account activity for signs of underage use. If an account is found to belong to someone under 18, it is closed immediately.

If you share a device with younger family members — siblings, children, nephews or nieces — please take these steps to prevent accidental access:

• Enable device passcode or biometric lock so the Six Gama app cannot be opened without your fingerprint or PIN.
• Log out of Six Gama whenever you finish a session, especially on shared phones or tablets.
• Do not save your password on a shared device's browser — clear saved credentials after each visit.
• Talk openly to younger family members about the fact that gaming is an adult activity, like driving or signing contracts, and is not appropriate for them.

If you suspect a minor has gained access to a Six Gama account — including your own — contact our support team immediately through in-app live chat. We will act without delay.

9 Budgeting Your Gaming in PKR

Managing a gaming budget does not need to be complicated. A straightforward approach works better than an elaborate system that is hard to maintain. Here is a simple framework that many Six Gama players in Pakistan find useful:

• Step 1 — Work out your monthly disposable income. After rent, groceries, transport, utilities and savings, how much is genuinely left over for leisure?
• Step 2 — Allocate a fixed percentage to gaming. Decide what share of your leisure budget goes to gaming on Six Gama versus other activities like eating out, mobile data or entertainment subscriptions. Many players find 10–20% of their leisure budget is a comfortable allocation.
• Step 3 — Set that amount as your monthly deposit limit. Lock it in at the start of each month through Account Settings. Once the limit is reached, that is it for the month — no top-ups.
• Step 4 — Review monthly. At the start of each new month, check how last month felt. Were you comfortable? Did you ever wish the limit was lower? Adjust accordingly.

Wins should be celebrated but not immediately reinvested as though they are free money. A win is real money. Decide in advance what you will do with any withdrawal — save it, spend it on something you wanted, or simply add it back to next month's leisure budget. Having a plan prevents the easy drift of re-depositing every win and realising at the end of the month that nothing actually came out.
