Responsible Gaming

Play Smart on done22 —
Stay in Control, Stay Enjoying It

Gaming on done22 should be something you look forward to — a bit of cricket betting during PSL, a slot session after work, a bingo room on the weekend. The moment it stops being that, something has shifted. This page covers every tool done22 provides to help you stay in control, along with honest guidance on recognising when gaming is no longer just entertainment.

18+ only. done22 is strictly for adults. If you feel your gaming is becoming a problem — financially, emotionally or in terms of time spent — please use the tools on this page. There is no penalty for taking a break. Your account will be waiting when you come back, if and when you choose to return.

Account Tools

Responsible Gaming Tools on done22

These tools are available in every done22 account, free of charge, with no questions asked. They are built into the platform because we think they should be easy to reach — not buried in a settings menu you have to search for.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly or monthly PKR deposit cap in your account settings. Once your limit is reached, done22 will not accept further deposits until the period resets. A limit reduction takes effect immediately. A limit increase requires a cooling-off period before it applies — this is intentional.

Available in Account Settings
Session Time Reminders

Set a time reminder and done22 will notify you when you have been playing for the duration you chose. The notification is a genuine pause prompt — you decide whether to continue, take a break or stop for the day. Setting one before you start a session takes about 30 seconds.

Available in Account Settings
Cooling-Off Period

If you want a short break from done22 without a full exclusion, a cooling-off period suspends your account for a chosen number of days. During this time you cannot log in, deposit or place any wager. The period runs its course and your account resumes normally.

Via done22 Support
Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion closes your done22 account for a period you specify — from a minimum of 30 days up to permanent exclusion. The account is suspended immediately upon confirmation. During exclusion, you will not receive any marketing communications from done22. To request self-exclusion, contact done22 support or use the option in your account settings.

Immediate Effect
Loss Limits

Beyond deposit limits, done22 also allows you to set a maximum net loss limit per day, week or month. Once your net losses reach the threshold you have set, done22 will restrict further real-money play for that period. This is separate from and in addition to deposit limits.

Available in Account Settings
Reality Check Notifications

Enable regular reality check pop-ups that show you how long you have been playing in the current session, how much you have deposited and your net position. These notifications appear at an interval you set and cannot be dismissed without acknowledging them.

The Basics

Why a Gaming Budget Is the Most Important Tool You Have

Before any platform feature, the most effective responsible gaming tool is a budget you decide before you start — not while you are playing. When you are mid-session, especially if you are down, it is very hard to make a clear-headed decision about how much more to spend. When you are sitting down before you open done22, that decision is much easier to make honestly.

A gaming budget is not a complicated concept. It is simply the amount of PKR you are genuinely comfortable losing — not the amount you hope to win. Think of it the same way you would plan any entertainment expense: a cricket match ticket, a family dinner out, a cinema trip. If the money were gone at the end of the night with nothing to show for it, would that be okay? That is the budget question.

Setting Up a Budget on done22

The deposit limit in your done22 account settings is the practical way to make your budget automatic. Set your weekly or monthly PKR limit to the amount you have decided is comfortable. Once it is set, done22 enforces it — you do not need to rely on willpower in the moment.

A few things that help when setting a budget for gaming on done22:

  • Calculate it from your disposable income only — not from money allocated for rent, food, bills or family commitments.
  • Set it conservatively at first. You can always adjust it later once you have a feel for how you actually use done22.
  • Treat any winnings as a bonus that extends the session — not as money you were owed or that changes what you should be spending next week.
  • Do not chase losses. A losing session on done22 — whether it is cricket betting, slots or bingo — is part of the normal experience of gaming. Chasing what you lost is how a manageable session turns into a problem.

Gaming Is Entertainment, Not Income

done22 provides fair games and genuine betting markets. The house edge is real on slot games and casino titles. Sports betting outcomes are uncertain by nature — that is what makes them interesting to bet on, but it also means you cannot rely on done22 winnings as a predictable income source. PSL betting is entertainment even for people who follow cricket closely and know their stuff. It is not a financial strategy.

If you find yourself thinking of done22 as a way to solve a financial problem, or if you are gaming with money you cannot genuinely afford to lose, that is the signal to stop and use the responsible gaming tools available in your account.

Budget Tracker Example

How a Monthly PKR Gaming Budget Looks

This is a visual example of how tracking your done22 spending against a set budget works. The percentages shown are illustrative only.

Week 1 — PKR 1,200 of 3,000 used40%
Week 2 — PKR 2,100 of 3,000 used70%
Week 3 — PKR 2,950 of 3,000 used98%

At 98% of budget — this is where a done22 deposit limit stops any further spending automatically for the rest of the month, without you needing to make the call yourself.

Know the Signs

When Gaming Stops Being Entertainment

Most people who use done22 game within their means and enjoy it as one of several things they do for entertainment. Some do not. Knowing the difference between the two is not always obvious from the inside. The signs below are worth being honest with yourself about.

Spending More Than You Planned

You started a session with a budget in mind and spent more. This happens occasionally — if it happens regularly, it is worth addressing with a deposit limit before it becomes a bigger issue.

Chasing Losses

You had a losing session and continued playing specifically to win the money back. Chasing losses rarely works and almost always makes the financial situation worse.

Gaming With Money You Cannot Afford

You have used money intended for household expenses, bills or other commitments to deposit on done22. This is the most serious warning sign. Stop immediately and contact support for self-exclusion.

Hiding Gaming Activity From Family

You are concealing how much time or money you spend on done22 from people close to you. This is often a sign that you already know something is out of balance.

Gaming to Escape Stress or Problems

Using done22 specifically to avoid thinking about problems in your life — financial, personal or otherwise. Gaming can distract temporarily but it does not solve anything and can create additional problems.

Gaming Feels Compulsive, Not Enjoyable

You are playing on done22 not because you are enjoying it but because you feel you have to. Gaming that does not feel like a choice is a clear signal to step back and use the self-exclusion tool.

If any of the above sound familiar: use the self-exclusion option in your done22 account settings or contact done22 support. There is zero penalty for taking a break. Your account will not be deleted during a standard exclusion period. Done22 will support you without judgement in taking the time you need.

Gaming Within a Decided Budget

You set an amount you are comfortable losing before you start, and you stay within it. The session ends when the budget is spent, win or lose.

Gaming for Entertainment, Not Income

You treat done22 as one entertainment option among several — like watching a PSL match or going out with friends — not as a way to earn money.

Stopping When You Planned to Stop

You set a session time and stick to it. Whether you are up or down, you close done22 when you planned to and do not feel a strong urge to keep going.

Gaming Openly, Not Secretly

The people around you know you use done22 occasionally. You are not hiding deposits, winnings or losses from your family or close friends.

Under-18 Protection

Keeping Minors Away From done22

done22 is for adults only — 18 years and above, no exceptions. We take this seriously because problem gambling that starts in adolescence tends to be more severe and harder to address later. Our age verification process checks that registered players meet the minimum age requirement and may request identity documents at any point.

If You Share a Device

If children or teenagers use the same phone, tablet or computer that you use for done22, we strongly encourage you to use parental control software to block access to gaming sites. On Android, Google Family Link and similar apps can restrict specific applications and websites. On iPhone and iPad, Screen Time settings allow you to restrict or password-protect access to specific apps. These tools work at the device level, independent of done22, which means they cover all gaming platforms — not just done22.

Always log out of your done22 account when you are not using it on a shared device. Do not save your login credentials on a device that minors use. Your done22 account password should be something a child in your household cannot guess.

Reporting an Underage User

If you believe someone under the age of 18 has accessed or registered on done22 — including a child in your own household — contact done22 support immediately. The account will be closed, the data deleted and no gaming transactions will be permitted. There is no charge or penalty for reporting this.

Self-Exclusion Details

What Happens When You Self-Exclude on done22

Self-exclusion is the strongest tool available. Here is exactly what it does and does not do.

Your account is suspended immediately

Once self-exclusion is confirmed, done22 logs you out and suspends the account. You cannot log back in for the duration of the exclusion period.

All marketing stops

done22 removes you from all promotional communications for the duration of the exclusion. No bonus emails, no promotional notifications, no re-activation offers.

Your balance is preserved

Any real money balance in your account when exclusion begins is retained and will be available when the exclusion period ends (for time-limited exclusions) or returned to you on request (for permanent exclusions).

You cannot reverse it early

This is by design. During a self-exclusion period, done22 will not lift the restriction early, even if you request it. The period must run its course.

Reopening a new account is prohibited

Attempting to register a new done22 account during a self-exclusion period is a breach of the Terms and Conditions. Any such account will be closed and balances forfeited.

Common Questions

Responsible Gaming FAQ

Straightforward answers to the questions done22 players most commonly ask about responsible gaming tools and self-management.

Log in to your done22 account and go to Account Settings. Look for the Responsible Gaming section. From there you can set a daily, weekly or monthly PKR deposit limit. The limit takes effect immediately once saved. If you want to reduce the limit, the reduction applies right away. If you want to increase it later, there is a mandatory cooling-off period before the higher limit activates — this is a protective delay built into the system.

Yes. If you have a real money PKR balance in your done22 account when self-exclusion begins, it is preserved. For time-limited self-exclusions, it is available when the period ends. For permanent exclusions, contact done22 support to request a withdrawal of your remaining balance to your registered JazzCash, Easypaisa or bank account. Bonus funds and associated pending winnings are forfeited on self-exclusion, but your real PKR deposits are not.

A cooling-off period is a short-term break — typically from 24 hours up to a few weeks. Your account is suspended for the chosen period and then automatically reactivates. It is designed for players who want to pause without committing to a longer break. Self-exclusion is a longer and stronger measure — from 30 days minimum up to permanent closure. Self-exclusion cannot be reversed early, includes removal from all marketing, and permanently excludes you if you choose the permanent option. If you are genuinely concerned about your gaming, self-exclusion is the more effective tool.

No. Your self-exclusion is a private account action between you and done22. done22 will not disclose your self-exclusion to anyone outside the platform unless legally required to do so. Your data is handled in accordance with the done22 Privacy Policy. Done22 support staff who handle exclusion requests are bound by confidentiality.

Registering a new done22 account during a self-exclusion period is a breach of the Terms and Conditions. If detected, the new account will be closed immediately and any balance in it forfeited. done22 takes self-exclusion seriously and monitors for duplicate accounts. If you are in self-exclusion and feel an urge to register a new account, that is a strong signal that the underlying issue needs attention beyond a platform exclusion.

Yes. done22 uses automated monitoring to identify patterns that may indicate problem gambling — such as rapid loss chasing, sharp increases in deposit frequency, very long uninterrupted sessions, or sudden large deposits following a period of inactivity. When these patterns are detected, done22 may proactively reach out to the account holder to check in, provide information about responsible gaming tools, or in more serious cases apply protective measures. This is not done to interfere with normal gaming — it is done because we want players on done22 to remain in genuine control of their play.
