Gaming Should Be Enjoyable — Always

Responsible gaming is the practice of treating online gaming — whether that's betting on PSL cricket, spinning slots, or playing live casino — as entertainment that fits within your budget and your life, not one that defines it. For the overwhelming majority of 7cb members across Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and Faisalabad, gaming remains exactly that: a fun way to engage with sports and games they already love, with the added excitement of playing in PKR from their own device.

The challenge with any form of gambling — whether it's wagering on a Pakistan versus India Test match or playing a jackpot slot — is that a small number of people develop patterns of play that go beyond entertainment and begin to cause financial or emotional harm. 7cb takes this reality seriously. We are not a platform that quietly profits from problem gambling and then posts a responsible gaming page as a compliance tick-box. Our tools are real, they are accessible without calling support first, and they take effect immediately.

The principles below define what responsible gaming looks like in practice. If you recognise these principles as already describing how you play, great — keep enjoying 7cb. If you're reading this page because something doesn't feel right about your gaming patterns, that instinct is worth taking seriously, and this page will tell you exactly what to do next.

The Golden Rules of Responsible Gaming at 7cb: Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Set a budget before you start and stick to it. Never chase losses. Take regular breaks. Gaming is not a way to solve financial problems.

What Responsible Play Looks Like

1
You Set a Budget in Advance

Before opening 7cb, you decide how much PKR you're comfortable spending as entertainment — and that number doesn't change mid-session because of how the session is going.

2
Losses Don't Distress You

You accept that losses are part of gaming. Losing money you budgeted for entertainment doesn't feel devastating — it feels the same as spending money on a cinema ticket or a dinner out.

3
You Stop When You Planned To

When your session timer goes off or your budget runs out, you close 7cb. You're not chasing one more win. You're not making one more deposit. You're done, and that feels fine.

4
Gaming Doesn't Crowd Out Life

Your relationships, work, finances, and daily responsibilities are intact and undisturbed by the time you spend at 7cb. Gaming is one leisure activity among several — not the dominant one.

5
You're Honest About It

You don't feel the need to hide your 7cb account from family or downplay how much you've spent. There's nothing about your gaming habits you feel ashamed to discuss openly.

7cb Responsible Gaming Tools — All Immediately Accessible

Every tool below is available inside your 7cb account settings. No phone call required. No waiting period for activation. They work the moment you switch them on.

PKR Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly maximum deposit amounts in Pakistani Rupees directly from your account settings. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits will be processed until the period resets. Reductions take effect immediately; increases require a mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decision-making.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum gaming session duration — from 30 minutes to several hours — and 7cb will automatically log you out when time is up. A warning notification appears 15 minutes before the limit is reached so you can wrap up in your own time. Sessions cannot be extended mid-play once the limit is active.

Cooling-Off Period

Apply a temporary account suspension of between 1 and 90 days. During the cooling-off period, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets on 7cb. Once activated, the period cannot be cancelled or shortened — it runs its full course. A helpful space to step back and reassess without permanently closing your account.

Self-Exclusion

Request permanent self-exclusion for a minimum of six months, with options up to five years. Self-exclusion is immediate and cannot be reversed before the chosen period expires. Any attempt to open a new 7cb account during the exclusion period will result in that account being closed immediately. This is the most powerful protection tool available.

Reality Check Reminders

Configure on-screen notifications that appear at regular intervals (every 30, 60, or 90 minutes) showing you how long you've been playing in your current session and how much you've wagered. Reality checks are a gentle, consistent nudge that keeps you aware of time and spend without disrupting your experience.

Activity & History Reports

Access a full, transparent history of your 7cb account activity at any time — including all deposits, withdrawals, bets placed, games played, and total session durations over any date range you select. Seeing your actual numbers clearly and honestly is one of the most effective responsible gaming tools that exists.

Recognising Problem Gambling

Problem gambling is not a character flaw and it is not limited to any particular type of person or income level. It can develop gradually and is often not recognised by the individual until it has already caused significant financial or personal harm. The signs below — drawn from internationally recognised gambling harm frameworks — are the indicators that 7cb asks all members to be aware of in themselves and in people close to them.

If three or more of the following signs apply to you, please use 7cb's self-exclusion tool or cooling-off feature immediately and consider reaching out to 7cb's 24/7 support team. You do not need to be in a crisis to ask for help.

Spending more than you planned, regularly
Chasing losses with bigger bets
Lying to family about gaming activity
Borrowing money to fund gaming
Feeling restless or irritable when not playing
Gaming to escape stress or problems
Missing work, social events, or family time to play
Unable to stop even when you want to
Thinking about gaming constantly when away from it
Spending bill money or savings on gaming

Quick Self-Check Questionnaire

Answer honestly. If you find yourself saying "yes" to several of these questions, please reach out to 7cb support or use the self-exclusion tool.

1

Have you ever had to lie to people important to you about the amount you gamble or the time you spend gaming on 7cb?

2

Do you feel the need to bet with larger and larger amounts of PKR in order to get the same level of excitement?

3

After losing money gaming, do you feel a strong urge to return as soon as possible to try and win it back?

4

Have you ever borrowed money, sold belongings, or used savings intended for other purposes — such as rent, school fees, or household expenses — to fund your gaming?

5

Has your gaming ever caused a serious argument with your family or affected your performance at work or studies?

6

Have you made repeated unsuccessful attempts to control, cut back, or stop gambling despite wanting to?

7

Do you find yourself gambling to escape problems, relieve feelings of helplessness, guilt, anxiety, or depression?

If you answered yes to two or more of these questions, please activate 7cb's cooling-off or self-exclusion feature now, and consider speaking to a qualified counsellor. You are not alone in this.

Strictly 21+ — 7cb's Absolute Age Policy

7cb is for adults aged 21 and above only. This is non-negotiable. Any individual who is under the age of 21 who accesses or attempts to access the 7cb platform — whether through their own registration or by using another person's account — is in violation of our Terms and Conditions and the conditions of our international gaming licence. Any account found to belong to a minor will be closed immediately, all winnings forfeited, and deposits refunded to the verified payment source.

7cb enforces its age requirement through mandatory identity verification at account registration. Every 7cb member is required to confirm their date of birth at the point of sign-up, and to submit valid government-issued identification — a Pakistani CNIC or passport — before their first withdrawal is processed. Where our verification systems detect inconsistencies in age-related information, the account is suspended immediately pending manual review.

We also encourage all 7cb members who share a device with children or younger family members to take additional precautions. If your device is used by other people in your household — as is common in many Pakistani homes where a single smartphone or tablet is shared — please ensure your 7cb account is protected by a strong password that others in the household do not have access to. Log out after every session. Enable your device's screen lock.

If you have reason to believe that a minor has accessed the 7cb platform using your device or account, please contact 7cb customer support via live chat immediately. We will review the account activity and take appropriate action promptly. Protecting young people from exposure to gambling content is a responsibility we share — and one we take seriously.

CNIC Verification

All members must submit a valid Pakistani CNIC or passport. Age is cross-verified against government-issued ID before withdrawal is unlocked.

Device Parental Lock

7cb recommends enabling parental controls on any shared device. Use your device's built-in screen time or app restriction features where available.

Password Protection

Use a unique, strong password for your 7cb account. Never share it with family members. Enable two-factor authentication for maximum security.

Always Log Out

Always log out of 7cb after each session, especially on shared devices. Never save your credentials in a shared browser profile.

Setting Up Your Safe Play Controls

Every responsible gaming tool at 7cb is built to be activated in under sixty seconds. No forms to fill in, no waiting for a support agent to process your request. Here's how to access each tool:

1
Log In to Your 7cb Account

Visit 7cb.biz and log in using your registered credentials. Make sure you're on a secure, private connection — not a public Wi-Fi network — when accessing account settings.

2
Navigate to Account Settings

Tap or click your profile icon in the top right corner of the platform. Select "Account Settings" from the dropdown menu. Then select the "Responsible Gaming" or "Safe Play" tab within settings.

3
Choose Your Tool

Select the protection tool you want to activate: Deposit Limit, Session Time Limit, Reality Check, Cooling-Off Period, or Self-Exclusion. Each has a clear description and input fields for your preferences.

4
Confirm — Takes Effect Immediately

Confirm your selection. Restrictions activate instantly. A confirmation email is sent to your registered address. Cooling-off periods and self-exclusion cannot be reversed once confirmed.

5
Need Help? Contact Support

If you cannot access your account settings or need assistance activating any responsible gaming tool, 7cb's 24/7 live support team will process your request immediately upon contact — no delays, no pushback.

Responsible Gaming — FAQs

No. Once you activate self-exclusion on 7cb, it cannot be reversed, reduced, or overridden before the period you selected has fully elapsed. This is intentional — self-exclusion is designed to protect you during a moment of vulnerability, and removing the ability to undo it is a core part of how the tool actually works.

Your 7cb balance is safe. During a self-exclusion or cooling-off period, your funds remain in your account and are fully protected. When the exclusion period expires and you choose to reactivate your account — or if you decide to close your account permanently — any verified real-money balance will be returned to your registered payment method.

7cb's responsible gaming monitoring systems flag accounts exhibiting patterns consistent with problematic play — such as rapid loss-chasing, very high session durations, or escalating deposit frequency after losses. When these patterns are detected, our team may proactively contact the member to check in, offer responsible gaming tool information, or in serious cases, apply a temporary precautionary restriction on the account pending a wellbeing check.

Deposit limit increases are subject to a mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period from the time you submit the increase request. The new, higher limit will not take effect until this period has elapsed. Decreases to your deposit limit, on the other hand, take effect immediately — you can always lower your limit without any waiting period.

If you are concerned about a family member or friend who you believe may have a gambling problem, 7cb's support team can provide guidance on how to approach the conversation. We also recommend documenting specific behaviours you've observed — such as unexplained financial difficulties or secrecy around phone use — as these details can be helpful if the person seeks professional support.

Yes. 7cb's international gaming licence requires the platform to provide a comprehensive suite of responsible gaming tools as a condition of maintaining its operating licence. The tools described on this page — deposit limits, session controls, cooling-off periods, and self-exclusion — are mandated by our licensing authority and are subject to ongoing compliance audits. But beyond compliance, 7cb genuinely believes these tools serve our members and our platform's long-term integrity.

You Are Not Alone — Getting Help

Problem gambling is a recognised health condition, not a moral failing. These resources are available to all 7cb members and their families who need support.

7cb Live Support — 24/7

7cb's customer support team is available around the clock via live chat within the platform. You can contact us at any hour to activate a responsible gaming tool, ask about your account, or simply talk to someone if you're concerned about your gaming. We are here and we will not judge.

Email: [email protected]

Talk to Someone You Trust

Sometimes the first and most important step is a conversation with a person in your life who you trust — a family member, a close friend, or a respected community figure. Being honest about a struggle with gaming can be the beginning of real change. You don't have to approach this alone.

7cb's support team can provide guidance on how to start that conversation if you're not sure where to begin.

Professional Counselling

Qualified mental health professionals and addiction counsellors are available in Pakistan's major cities — Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, and Faisalabad. Problem gambling is within the scope of many general and addiction-specialist mental health services. Seeking professional support is a sign of strength, not weakness.

Ask your GP or contact a mental health helpline to find an appropriate counsellor near you.

A note from 7cb: Our responsible gaming programme is administered under the standards required by our international gaming licence. These standards exist to ensure that every 7cb member — whether they're in Karachi placing a PSL bet or in Lahore playing live baccarat — has access to genuine, effective tools and support if their relationship with gaming becomes problematic. We take this obligation seriously. If you ever feel that 7cb has not met this commitment, please contact us directly.

Enjoy 7cb — Responsibly

7cb is Pakistan's most complete gaming platform — and we're proud to also be one of the most responsible. Cricket betting, live casino, slots, and more — all within a safe, controlled environment built with your wellbeing in mind.
