Responsible Gaming at ritz99

Play for fun, not to escape problems. We are here to make sure you always stay in control.

ritz99's Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At ritz99, we believe that online gaming should be a source of fun and entertainment — not stress. As a platform trusted by hundreds of thousands of users across Malaysia, we take this responsibility seriously. Our responsible gaming policy is more than words on paper; it is at the core of how we operate.

We understand that every user comes from a different background and circumstance. Some play simply to unwind after a long day, some enjoy the challenge of strategy games, and others may need a little help maintaining balance. Whatever your situation, ritz99 is always here with the tools, guidance, and support you need.

Important Reminder: Online gaming is strictly for individuals aged 18 and above. If you feel gaming is beginning to affect your daily life, finances, or relationships — please use our self-control tools or contact our support team immediately.

Ritz99 uses behavioral monitoring technology that automatically detects suspicious patterns. This system allows us to proactively reach out to users who may need support, even before they ask for it.

This page explains all the self-control tools available, the warning signs to watch out for, and concrete steps you can take to keep your gaming experience positive and balanced.

We Give You Full Control

Ritz99 provides a range of self-control features that you can activate directly from your account settings at any time.

Daily Deposit Limit

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit for your account. Once the limit is set, our system will automatically block any deposit exceeding that amount — no exceptions.

Play Time Limit

Set how many hours per day you want to play. Once the time limit is reached, your session will be ended automatically. You can also set pop-up reminders every 30 or 60 minutes during play.

Temporary Break (Cool-off)

Need a break from gaming? Activate the temporary break mode for 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days. During this period, your account will be blocked from all wagering activity.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel the need to stop for an extended period, the self-exclusion option allows you to block your account for 6 months to 5 years. This process cannot be reversed until the period expires.

Loss Limit

Set the maximum amount you are willing to lose within a given period. Once your loss limit is reached, the system automatically prevents you from placing additional bets for the time being.

Account Activity Review

Review your full history of wagering activity, deposits, and withdrawals at any time through your account dashboard. This transparency helps you better understand your playing habits.

How to Activate Self-Control Tools

Log in to your account

Go to "Account Settings" in the top right corner of your dashboard after logging in.

Select "Responsible Gaming"

Click on the "Responsible Gaming" tab in the settings menu to view all available control options.

Set limits as needed

Choose the type of limit you want — deposit, time, loss, or break — and enter a value that works for you.

Instant Confirmation

The limits you set will take effect immediately. You will receive a confirmation email as your personal record.

Helpful Tips: All changes to reducing limits take effect immediately. Changes to increasing limits require 24 hours to take effect — this is a safety measure we have put in place to protect you from impulsive decisions.

Recognise the Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can happen to anyone, regardless of background or experience. Recognise these early warning signs so you can take action before things become more serious:

Warning Signs Example Scenarios Attention Level
Playing to chase losses Continuing to bet after a big loss in hopes of "breaking even" High
Neglecting daily responsibilities Neglecting work, family, or appointments due to excessive gaming High
Playing with essential funds Using rent, bill, or grocery money to gamble High
Feeling restless or anxious when not playing Feeling restless or irritable when unable to access the platform Medium
Hiding gaming habits Lying to a partner or family about time and money spent Medium
Playing longer than planned Intending to play for an hour but ending up playing four to five hours Low
If you identify two or more of the above signs in yourself, we strongly encourage you to activate the temporary break or self-exclusion feature immediately, and reach out to our support team.

Ritz99's Promise to Users

No Underage Users

Ritz99 applies a rigorous KYC process to ensure all users are aged 18 and above. We have zero tolerance for any attempt to circumvent this age restriction.

Responsible Advertising

We do not target advertisements at individuals who have opted for self-exclusion or who show signs of problem gambling. All our promotional materials comply with ethical advertising guidelines.

24/7 Support

The ritz99 support team is available to assist you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If you need help related to responsible gaming, contact us and we will respond promptly and with empathy.

Confidentiality Guaranteed

All conversations regarding your gaming concerns are completely confidential. We will not disclose this information to any third party without your explicit consent.

Healthy Gaming Guidelines

Here are some simple guidelines we recommend to all ritz99 users to ensure a healthy and enjoyable gaming experience:

  • Set a budget before you play — Decide how much you are willing to spend before opening your account, and stick to that amount.
  • Treat losses as the cost of entertainment — Just like money spent on a movie or a restaurant dinner, losses from gaming are the cost of entertainment, not an investment.
  • Do not play when emotionally unstable — Avoid playing when you feel stressed, sad, angry, or under the influence. Emotional instability can impair your judgment.
  • Take regular breaks — Use our time reminder feature and take a break of at least 10 minutes every hour.
  • Do not chase losses — If you have reached your loss limit for the day, stop. Tomorrow is a new day with new opportunities.
  • Make it one of many activities — Make sure online gaming is only a small part of your life, not your primary activity.
Remember: The best player is not the one who wins the most — but the one who manages their time and money most wisely. Play for fun, not for riches.

FAQ – Responsible Gaming

No. Self-exclusion is a binding commitment that cannot be reversed until the set period has ended. This is a deliberately designed safeguard to ensure you get a genuinely effective break. Once the period ends, you must contact our support team to request account reactivation — it does not happen automatically.

Limits can be changed, but subject to certain conditions. To reducing limits (e.g. lowering a deposit limit), changes take effect immediately. For increasing limits, there is a 24-hour waiting period before the change takes effect — giving you time to reconsider your decision.

Contact the ritz99 support team and share your concerns. While we cannot disclose another user's account information, we can guide you on the best ways to help your loved one. We can also provide appropriate guidance and resources for the situation.

Your account balance remains safe throughout your self-exclusion period. You may request a withdrawal of your balance even during exclusion — your funds will not be lost. Once the exclusion period ends and your account is reactivated, your balance will still be there as usual.

Yes. Our support team can direct you to information on problem gambling support organisations operating in Malaysia. We also provide reading materials and guides in Bahasa Malaysia to help you or your loved ones understand and address problem gambling issues. Contact us for more information.
