beta1 is entertainment — not a way to earn a living. This page gives you honest guidance, practical tools and a self-check quiz to help you keep your gaming healthy and under control.
Important reminder: Gaming and sports betting are forms of entertainment. They carry financial risk and are never a reliable way to make money. Only play with amounts you can genuinely afford to lose, and always treat it as leisure — not income.
At beta1, we want every player in Pakistan to enjoy Cricket betting, PSL markets, casino games and the full game lobby in a way that stays fun and stays under control. Responsible gaming is not just a checkbox for us — it is built into how the platform works. We have added tools directly into your account so you do not have to go looking for help when you need it.
The reality is that some people can find it hard to stop once they start. That is not a weakness — it is a recognised pattern that affects people across all backgrounds. What matters is recognising the signs early and knowing exactly what you can do about it. Everything on this page is designed to give you that awareness and those options.
If you are reading this page because you are concerned about your own habits or those of someone you know, keep going — there is practical, useful information below and the beta1 support team is available 24 hours a day if you need to talk it through.
The most effective responsible gaming tool is one you set before you even log in: a personal budget. Decide in advance how much PKR you are comfortable spending on gaming in a given week or month, treat that amount as entertainment spend — the same way you might budget for a meal out or a cinema trip — and stick to it regardless of whether you win or lose.
A few habits that experienced players swear by:
beta1 supports this approach by letting you set deposit limits directly in your account. Once set, a daily, weekly or monthly cap cannot be increased immediately — there is a mandatory cooling-off period before any increase takes effect, which gives you time to reconsider.
Time can pass very quickly when you are watching a live PSL match and in-play betting is running. beta1 includes session time reminders so you can set an alert for a chosen duration — say 60 or 90 minutes — and get a notification when that time is up. The notification does not log you out automatically; it simply checks in so you can make a conscious decision about whether to continue.
Some practical time management tips:
Sometimes the right move is to step away from the platform entirely for a while. beta1 offers self-exclusion as a built-in account feature. You can request a temporary exclusion — for days, weeks or months — or a permanent exclusion if you feel that is what you need.
During a self-exclusion period:
To activate self-exclusion, contact the beta1 support team via live chat and state clearly that you want to self-exclude and for how long. The support team will action it immediately, usually within minutes. You can also request self-exclusion by emailing the address shown in the footer of this page.
Most people gamble without any issues at all. But it is useful to know the early warning signs so you can act before things get harder to manage. The following patterns are worth taking seriously if you notice them in yourself:
If three or more of the above feel familiar, it is worth taking the self-assessment quiz below and considering using the self-exclusion tool or speaking to someone you trust.
If you have children or younger family members at home who use your phone or shared devices, it is your responsibility to make sure they cannot access your beta1 account. Keep your login credentials private and enable two-factor authentication so that even if someone knows your password, they cannot get in without the second verification step.
Never allow anyone under 18 to use your account, even for "just watching." If a minor is found to have accessed or used a beta1 account, that account will be closed and the balance dealt with according to our Terms and Conditions.
Our commitment: beta1 takes player wellbeing seriously. Our support team is trained to recognise when a player may need additional help and to respond with care — not judgment. If you reach out, you will be treated with respect.
Log in and visit account settings to set daily, weekly or monthly PKR deposit caps.
Turn on time alerts so you get a check-in notification when your session reaches your chosen length.
Contact live support anytime to activate a cooling-off period or full self-exclusion.
Check your transaction and betting history in your account to keep a clear picture of your PKR spend.
If you or someone you know is struggling with gambling habits, please reach out to the beta1 support team immediately via live chat — available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Our team can help you set limits, activate self-exclusion or simply listen without judgment. You do not have to manage this alone.
Go through these questions honestly. This is for your own awareness only — the answers stay with you.
If you answered yes to three or more of the above, we strongly encourage you to use the deposit limit and self-exclusion tools, or to speak to the beta1 support team about taking a break. There is no shame in asking for help.
These principles help keep gaming fun for the long term. Keep them in mind every time you log in.
Your household expenses, savings and family budget should always come first. Gaming is a luxury, not a necessity.
Even the best cricket analysts get results wrong. No betting system or strategy guarantees a win.
Depositing more to recover losses is one of the most common — and costly — mistakes in gaming. Accept the result and come back another day.
If you feel stressed, anxious or low because of gaming outcomes, that is a clear signal to step back and reset.
Stepping away regularly keeps the experience fresh and prevents the fatigue that leads to poor decisions.
Every registered player has access to these tools from their account settings or by contacting support.
Set a maximum PKR deposit amount per day, per week or per month. Once you reach your limit, the platform will not allow further deposits until the period resets. Any request to raise the limit takes effect only after a mandatory waiting period — giving you a built-in pause to reconsider.
Choose how long you want your gaming session to last before you get a gentle reminder. Whether you set it to 30 minutes or 2 hours, the notification appears on screen so you can make a conscious, informed decision about whether to continue or log off.
A cooling-off period temporarily suspends your ability to deposit and bet, without fully closing your account. It is useful when you want a short break — a few days or a week — without going through full self-exclusion. Your balance is preserved and withdrawals remain available.
Request a full self-exclusion for a defined period — weeks or months — or a permanent exclusion. During exclusion, your account is suspended, all marketing stops and you cannot log in. Contact live support to activate this at any time, day or night.
Your full PKR deposit, withdrawal and betting history is available in your account at any time. Reviewing it regularly is one of the simplest ways to stay honest about how much you are spending and to catch any patterns before they become bigger issues.
The beta1 support team is available around the clock via live chat. If you are struggling to control your gaming habits, reach out — even just to talk. The team is trained to listen and to help you access the right tools without any judgment.
