Responsible Gaming Control Tools

Irokok provides six key control tools designed to help you manage your gaming activity more wisely and responsibly.

Deposit Limit

Set your own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Once a limit is set and reduced, it takes effect immediately. Increases require a 7-day waiting period to protect you.

Session Time Limit

Control how long you play each session by setting a time limit. The platform will send a reminder as the limit approaches and will automatically end the session once the limit is reached.

Loss Limit

Set the maximum amount you're comfortable losing within a given period. Once your loss limit is reached, the platform will prevent you from placing further bets until the limit resets.

Temporary Self-Break

Need a short break? Activate the cool-off feature for a period of 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or 90 days. During this time, your account cannot be used for gaming or making new deposits.

Permanent Self-Exclusion

If you feel the need to stop playing permanently, the self-exclusion feature allows you to close your account for good. This decision is final and cannot be reversed once activated.

Activity History & Review

Monitor all your gaming activity with detailed reports covering deposit records, bets, wins, losses, and time played to help you make smarter decisions.

What Is Responsible Gaming?

For most people, playing on a platform like irokok is an enjoyable form of entertainment — much like going to the cinema or dining out. As long as you set clear limits, play with disposable funds, and keep gaming from interfering with daily life, it can be a positive experience.

Responsible gaming means you stay in control of your experience — not the other way around. It starts with understanding that gaming is purely for entertainment, not a source of income or an escape from financial or emotional problems.

Irokok takes this responsibility seriously. We invest in both technology and people to ensure our platform is used in a healthy, controlled way by all our players — especially those who may be more vulnerable.

Core Principles of Playing Smart

Before you start playing, a few simple principles are worth making a habit. These aren't just formal advice — they're everyday practices that separate players who enjoy the game from those who struggle with it.

Set a Budget Before You Play

Decide how much you're comfortable spending before opening the platform. This should come from your disposable funds — not from money set aside for daily needs, bills, or savings.

Treat Losses as the Cost of Entertainment

Think of money spent on gaming the same way as buying a cinema ticket — you are paying for the experience and entertainment, not for guaranteed winnings.

Don't Chase Losses

One of the most harmful habits in gaming is chasing losses by continuing to play. If you've hit your limit, stop and try again another day.

Balance Gaming with Other Activities

Make sure gaming is not your only leisure activity. Set aside time for family, friends, other hobbies, and physical activity to keep your perspective balanced.

Don't Play When Stressed or Emotional

Gaming decisions made while sad, angry, stressed, or under the influence of alcohol tend to go poorly. Wait until you are calm and thinking clearly.

Early Warning Signs

Watch for the following signs in yourself or someone you care about. The earlier they are spotted, the easier it is to get help:

Feeling restless or uncomfortable when not playing for an extended period.

Hiding gaming activity from close family members or friends.

Borrowing money or selling belongings to fund gaming.

Neglecting work, family, or financial responsibilities because of gaming.

Unable to stop playing even when you intend to.

Using gaming as an escape from problems, stress, or negative emotions.

Feeling guilty, ashamed, or regretful after playing but continuing anyway.

If you recognise any of the signs above in yourself, that is not a sign of weakness. It is a sign that you need support. Contact the irokok support team via live chat for more information on available help resources.

How to Set Limits on the irokok Platform

Setting gaming limits on irokok is straightforward and takes less than two minutes.

1
Log In to Your Account

Log in to your irokok account using your registered username and password.

2
Go to Account Settings

Click the profile icon at the top right and select "Account Settings" or "Responsible Gaming".

3
Choose a Limit Type

Choose the type of limit you want to set — deposit, loss, playing time, self-break, or self-exclusion.

4
Confirm & Activate

Enter your desired limit value, confirm with the OTP sent to your phone, and the limit will take effect immediately.

Important Note: Reduced limits (for example, lowering your deposit limit from RM500 to RM200) take effect immediately. Increased limits require a mandatory 7-day waiting period before they apply — this is an intentional safeguard for your protection.

Limits that reduce access (such as lowering a deposit limit or activating a break) can be reduced further immediately, but cannot be increased or cancelled on the spot. Any limit increase requires a 7-day waiting period before taking effect. Permanent self-exclusion cannot be reversed under any circumstances.

Your real money balance remains safe throughout the self-exclusion period. You will not be able to play or make new deposits, but existing funds can be withdrawn as usual through the available withdrawal channels.

No. When you activate a self-break or self-exclusion, your account is automatically removed from all promotional email lists and offer notifications. irokok will not send you any marketing communications during that period.

The first step is to activate the self-exclusion feature through your account. Then, talk to someone you trust — a family member, friend, or mental health professional. irokok can also connect you with information on relevant support organisations in Malaysia through our support team.

Restrictive limits — such as lowering your deposit limit, activating a break, or self-exclusion — take effect immediately once you confirm with an OTP. Limits that loosen access require a 7-day waiting period to protect you from impulsive decisions.

Deposit and loss limits are applied at the overall account level, meaning they cover all game types. Session time limits are also enforced platform-wide. This ensures consistent protection with no exploitable gaps.
