Gaming at pk87 is meant to be an enjoyable experience — not a source of stress or financial strain. Our responsible gaming framework gives every Pakistani player the tools, information, and support they need to stay in control at all times.
At pk87, we believe that responsible gaming is not a compliance checkbox — it is a genuine commitment to the wellbeing of every player on our platform. Whether you are placing a small bet on a PSL match in Lahore, spinning a slot from your phone in Karachi, or trying your hand at live roulette from Islamabad, pk87 wants that experience to be entertaining, financially measured, and entirely within your control.
Problem gambling is a recognised behavioural condition that can affect anyone, regardless of income, background, or experience level. The early warning signs — chasing losses, betting with money set aside for bills, hiding gambling activity from family — are often subtle. pk87's responsible gaming system is designed to surface these patterns early and give players actionable tools before a habit becomes a problem.
Our responsible gaming framework is built around four principles: Prevention through age verification and player education; Awareness through real-time alerts and reality checks; Control through limit-setting and self-exclusion tools; and Support through trained customer service and referrals to professional help. All four operate simultaneously, every day, for every pk87 player in Pakistan.
Every pk87 account comes with access to these six responsible gaming tools. They are free, immediate, and do not require any approval or waiting period to activate — except for self-exclusion cool-down, which is intentional.
Set a maximum PKR deposit amount on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once your chosen limit is reached, the cashier is automatically locked for that period. Reducing a limit takes effect immediately; increasing a limit requires a 7-day cooling-off period — a deliberate friction designed to protect impulsive decisions.
Define the maximum amount you are willing to lose in a given day, week, or month. When your net losses hit the threshold, pk87 temporarily suspends your ability to place further bets or wagers for the remainder of that period. This tool is particularly useful during high-intensity PSL and ICC tournament seasons.
Specify a maximum session duration — from 30 minutes to 4 hours. When your session timer expires, pk87 logs you out automatically and displays a summary of your session activity, including total time played, bets placed, and net result in PKR. You will need to deliberately log back in to continue.
Enable periodic on-screen pop-up reminders at intervals of your choice — every 15, 30, or 60 minutes. Each reality check displays how long you have been playing, your total spend for the session, and a prompt to review your session or continue. You must actively dismiss the reminder to keep playing.
Need a short step back without committing to a full self-exclusion? The Take a Break feature lets you pause your pk87 account for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a break, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. Promotional communications are suspended for the duration. No questions asked.
Self-exclusion is pk87's strongest responsible gaming measure. It permanently closes your account for a minimum period of 6 months, with options for 1 year, 3 years, or permanent exclusion. During exclusion, you cannot open a new pk87 account. All balances are returned. Marketing is permanently stopped.
The table below summarises how each responsible gaming limit tool works, its default setting on a new pk87 account, and the applicable cooling-off period before an increase can take effect.
| Tool | Periods Available | Default Setting | Decrease Takes Effect | Increase Takes Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Deposit Limit | Daily / Weekly / Monthly | No limit set | Immediately | After 7 days |
| Loss Limit | Daily / Weekly / Monthly | No limit set | Immediately | After 7 days |
| Session Time Limit | 30 min / 1 hr / 2 hr / 4 hr | No limit set | Immediately | After 24 hours |
| Reality Check | 15 min / 30 min / 60 min | Off by default | Immediately | N/A |
| Take a Break | 24 hr / 7 days / 30 days | Not active | Immediately | After break period ends |
| Self-Exclusion | 6 mo / 1 yr / 3 yr / Permanent | Not active | Immediately | After exclusion period ends |
Self-exclusion at pk87 is a straightforward process deliberately kept short and barrier-free. If you have made the decision to exclude yourself, we make it easy to act on that decision immediately. No lengthy forms, no waiting queues.
Access your account via the pk87 Login page. If you are finding it difficult to resist logging in, contact our live chat support directly — our welfare team can initiate the exclusion process on your behalf without requiring you to log in.
Go to your Account Settings and select the "Responsible Gaming" section. All six protection tools are grouped here in one place — you will not need to hunt through unrelated menus.
Click "Self-Exclusion" and choose your preferred exclusion period: 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanent. Read the information displayed about what exclusion means for your account and any outstanding bonus balance before confirming.
You will be asked to confirm via a verification step — this is a standard safeguard to ensure the request is intentional. Once confirmed, your account is locked within minutes. You will receive an email confirmation to your registered address.
Any real-money balance remaining in your pk87 account at the time of exclusion will be returned to your nominated JazzCash, EasyPaisa, or bank account within 3–5 business days. Bonus balances are forfeited per our Terms & Conditions.
Our welfare team will check in via email within 48 hours of your exclusion to provide information about professional support resources. You can contact us at any time during your exclusion period if you need assistance — excluding you from gaming does not exclude you from our support.
