At mpoid, gambling is entertainment — and entertainment should never come at the cost of your wellbeing, your finances, or your relationships. This page explains our commitment to safe play, the tools we provide, and where to find help if you need it.
Every one of these tools is available to all mpoid players — free of charge, effective immediately, and built into your account settings. You do not need to explain yourself to use them.
Set a maximum amount you can deposit per day, per week, or per month. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Reducing a limit takes effect immediately; increasing a limit requires a 24-hour cooling period to prevent impulsive decisions.
Define the maximum net amount you are prepared to lose within a defined period. When your net loss reaches that threshold, your account will be temporarily restricted from further wagering until the period resets. This is one of the most effective ways to keep gambling within budget.
Set reminders that notify you after a specified duration of continuous play — 30 minutes, 1 hour, or a custom interval. It is easy to lose track of time when you are engaged in live casino games or following a Liga Super Malaysia match. These reminders keep you in control.
Take a short break from gambling by activating a cooling-off period of 1 day, 7 days, or 30 days. During a cooling-off period, your account remains accessible for viewing purposes only — no deposits, no bets. This is ideal if you feel your play is becoming too frequent.
If you feel that gambling is no longer within your control, self-exclusion allows you to permanently or indefinitely close your mpoid account. Contact our support team to activate self-exclusion. Once confirmed, your account will be closed and you will be prevented from re-registering for the duration of the exclusion period.
Receive periodic on-screen notifications showing how long you have been playing in the current session and your net win or loss position. These reality checks are displayed at regular intervals and are designed to keep you objectively informed of your gambling activity in real time.
All responsible gambling tools are available directly within your mpoid account — no phone calls required, no waiting periods for most features. Here is how to access them:
If you prefer to speak with a real person, our support team is available 24/7 via live chat in English, Bahasa Melayu, and Chinese. They can activate self-exclusion or adjust limits on your behalf immediately.
Self-exclusion requests submitted via live chat are processed immediately and take effect within minutes. Once active, self-exclusion cannot be reversed until the exclusion period has expired. Please consider this carefully before requesting.
Access your account from any device — mobile or desktop. All responsible gambling settings are available via the account menu on both the mobile interface and the full desktop site.
From your account menu, select "Responsible Gambling" or "Player Safety". You will find all available tools listed here, including deposit limits, loss limits, session reminders, cooling-off periods, and self-exclusion.
Choose the tool you want to activate and configure your preferred settings. Deposit and loss limit reductions take effect immediately. Cooling-off periods are activated instantly upon confirmation.
Confirm your selection. You will receive an email confirmation to your registered address. You can review your active limits at any time from the same settings page.
For self-exclusion requests or if you cannot access your account settings, contact our 24/7 support team via live chat or at [email protected]. Our team will act on your request immediately.
Gambling problems can develop gradually and are not always easy to recognise from the inside. The questions below are adapted from widely recognised self-assessment frameworks used by responsible gambling organisations. They are for personal reflection only — there are no right or wrong answers.
If you answer "yes" to two or more of these questions, we encourage you to consider using one of the tools available on mpoid, or to reach out to a professional support service.
Start with the smallest step available to you — set a deposit limit, take a 7-day break, or call Talian Kasih at 15999. You don't have to stop gambling permanently to get your balance back. Small steps count.
Do you spend more money or time gambling than you originally intended?
Have you ever lied to family members or friends about how much you gamble or how much you have lost?
Do you find yourself thinking about gambling frequently — planning your next session or replaying past ones?
Do you gamble to escape personal problems, stress, or feelings of anxiety and low mood?
Have you tried to cut down on gambling but found it difficult or impossible to stick to your own limits?
Have you ever borrowed money, sold possessions, or used money intended for bills or necessities to fund gambling?
Have people close to you expressed concern about your gambling habits?
Do you feel irritable, restless, or anxious when you try to reduce or stop gambling?
Has gambling ever caused you to miss work, study, or important family commitments?
Do you chase losses — continuing to gamble after a losing session in order to win back what you lost?
Problem gambling develops differently for different people. These are some of the common behavioural and financial warning signs that suggest a player's relationship with gambling may need attention.
Spending more than you can afford on a regular basis, including using money set aside for rent, groceries, or utility bills.
Hiding gambling activity from family members, particularly a spouse or parents.
Needing to bet increasingly larger amounts to feel the same level of excitement.
Feeling unable to walk away from a losing session — persistently chasing losses in the hope of a recovery.
Prioritising gambling sessions over family time, social activities, or professional responsibilities.
Taking out loans or borrowing money from friends specifically to fund gambling.
Gambling as a primary way to deal with emotional distress, loneliness, boredom, or anxiety.
Responsible gambling is entirely achievable. Most players who use mpoid do so well within healthy boundaries. Here is what balanced, controlled gambling typically looks like:
You set a fixed entertainment budget for gambling — similar to money you'd spend on a cinema outing or a meal out in Bangsar — and you stick to it.
You treat any losses as the cost of entertainment, not as money that needs to be won back.
You take regular breaks and step away when you've hit your session time or loss limit.
You never gamble when you are emotionally upset, stressed, or under the influence of alcohol.
You are comfortable discussing your gambling with the people close to you, including how much you spend.
Gambling is one of several leisure activities in your life — not the primary or only one.
You know how to use the deposit limit and session reminder features on mpoid and you use them proactively.
