Great entertainment starts with self-awareness. 9Club provides a range of control tools and support resources so you can enjoy your gaming experience safely, within your own limits.
Our Commitment
Online gambling should be a form of entertainment — just like going to the cinema or dining out with friends. It should bring enjoyment, not worry. At 9Club, we understand that for some people, the line between entertainment and addiction can blur without warning.
That is why responsible gaming is not just a small clause in our policy — it is part of how we operate every day. We do not want our members to play beyond their means, and we provide genuine tools and support to help every member stay in control.
This page covers everything you need to know about 9Club's approach to responsible gaming: the tools we provide, the warning signs to watch for, and where to get help if needed.
Key principles: Bet for fun, not to cover debts or solve financial problems. If you find yourself playing for the latter reason, it is time to pause and seek help.
Control in Your Hands
All these tools can be activated directly from your account settings. No questionnaires, no complicated procedures — you set your own limits.
Set the maximum deposit amount you can make within a given time period. Once a limit is set and confirmed, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased within 24 hours — this protects you from impulsive decisions made in the heat of the moment.
Set how long you want to play in a single session. When the set time is nearly up, the system will issue a warning. When the limit is reached, the session will end automatically so you can take a break and reassess.
Set a maximum loss limit per day, week, or month. Once this limit is reached, your account cannot be used for gaming until the limit period expires — even if you still have a balance in your account.
Need a short break from gaming? Activate a cool-off for 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days. During this period, your account will be blocked from all gaming activity but you can still withdraw your balance.
For a long-term commitment, choose self-exclusion for 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanently. During this period, your account will be fully closed. A permanent self-exclusion request cannot be reversed under any circumstances.
You can opt out of promotional emails, bonus notifications, and any marketing communications from 9Club at any time through your account settings. This helps reduce the temptation to play when you would rather not.
How to activate: Login to your 9Club account, go to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming. All limits and restrictions can be activated from there. For permanent self-exclusion, contact 9Club support via live chat.
Recognise the Signs
Most people experiencing gambling problems are unaware the problem exists — at least in the early stages. Watch for these signs in yourself or someone you care about:
Feeling compelled to keep playing to win back money you have already lost — this is called "chasing losses" and is the clearest sign of problem gambling.
Hiding how much time or money you have spent playing from close family or friends.
Using money intended for bills, food, or your children's needs for wagering purposes.
Having tried to cut down or stop playing multiple times without success, or feeling uncomfortable when not playing.
Using gambling as a way to escape problems, stress, anxiety, or other negative feelings — rather than purely for entertainment.
Test Yourself
Answer the following questions honestly. If you answer "Yes" to 3 or more questions, it is a good idea to speak with someone who can help.
If you answered "Yes" to three or more questions, we encourage you to reach out to the 9Club support team or a qualified gambling assistance organisation. There is no shame in seeking help.
Simple Steps
Activating self-control tools at 9Club takes less than two minutes. No documents required, no uncomfortable questions.
Open the 9Club app or visit our website and log in using your phone number and password.
Tap the profile icon in the top right corner, then select "Account Settings" from the menu that appears.
Look for the "Responsible Gaming" or "Account Controls" section — all control tools are grouped there for your convenience.
Choose the type of limit you want — deposit, loss, session time, or cool-off — and enter a value that suits your situation.
Confirm your limits. For deposit and loss limits, they take effect immediately. To increase a limit, a 24-hour waiting period applies — this is intentional to protect you.
9Club's Commitment
Beyond self-control tools, 9Club also takes proactive steps on our end to maintain a healthy gaming environment.
Why It Matters
Six core principles that guide us in ensuring every member enjoys the platform in a healthy and sustainable way.
9Club is an entertainment platform. Wins are a fun bonus, not a reliable source of income. Play only with money you can genuinely afford to lose.
Decide how much you are willing to spend before opening the app — not while you are already in the game. A budget set in advance is far more effective than a limit you try to set when emotions are running high.
Gambling should not take up a significant portion of your daily life. If you find yourself thinking about games more than anything else, that is a sign to take a break.
Attempting to win back money you have already lost by continuing to play almost always results in even greater losses. This is not about luck — it is simply how the mathematics of odds works.
Do not hide your gaming habits from family or close friends. Transparency is a sign of healthy play. If you feel the need to conceal it, think carefully about why.
Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Many people who have experienced gambling problems make a full recovery with the right support. The first step is the most important one.
