M99y Self-Control Tools

We provide six tools you can use directly within your account to keep your gaming experience in control and enjoyable

Deposit Limit

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits based on your own financial capacity. These limits take effect immediately and can only be increased after a 7-day period to prevent impulsive decisions.

Loss Limit

Set the maximum amount you are willing to lose within a given period. Once this limit is reached, the m99y system will automatically end your gaming session until the next period begins.

Session Time Limit

Control how long you play each day. You can set a session time reminder, and when the limit is reached, the platform will display a notification prompting you to take a break and reassess your session.

Cooling-Off

Need a short break? Use the Cooling-Off feature to block access to your account for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Perfect for players who want to step back without permanently closing their account.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need to stop completely, you can apply for self-exclusion for a period of 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. During this period, your account will be blocked and all marketing communications will cease.

Review Game History

Monitor a full record of your gambling activity including total time played, deposits, withdrawals, and wins. This complete transparency helps you make more informed decisions about your gambling habits.

How to Use the Self-Control Tools

Follow these simple steps to set your betting limits in your m99y account

1
Log In to Your Account

Access your m99y account via the Login button at the top of the website or mobile app. Two-factor authentication ensures only you can modify your account settings.

2
Go to Account Settings

Click the profile icon in the top-right corner, then select "Account Settings" or "Responsible Gambling" from the dropdown menu.

3
Select Your Desired Limit Type

Choose from Deposit Limit, Loss Limit, Play Time Limit, Cooling-Off, or Self-Exclusion options based on your current needs.

4
Set Value and Confirm

Enter the desired limit amount or duration. Limits that reduce gambling activity take effect immediately, while limits that increase your allowance require a 7-day waiting period as an additional safeguard.

5
Verify via Email or SMS

For significant changes such as self-exclusion, additional verification via email or SMS OTP is required to ensure the decision is made consciously and not accidentally.

Check Yourself: Are You Playing Responsibly?

Answer these questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to more than three questions, consider reaching out to our support team.

Do you gamble with money intended for daily necessities such as rent, food, or bills?
Do you find yourself constantly thinking about gambling even while doing other activities?
Have you ever tried to stop playing but failed?
Do you play longer or spend more than you originally planned?
Have family members or friends ever expressed concern about your gambling habits?
Do you gamble to escape problems or negative feelings?
Have you ever lied to others about how much time or money you have spent gaming?

Remember: Gambling should be purely for entertainment. If it starts affecting your daily life, it's time to seek help. The m99y team is here to support you 24/7.

Recognise the Early Warning Signs

Identifying problems early allows you to take action before they become serious

Warning Signs

Chasing losses – Continuing to play in an attempt to recover lost money, often resulting in even greater losses.

Hiding gambling activity – Hiding the extent of your gaming from a partner, family members, or friends.

Borrowing money to gamble – Using loans, credit cards, or asking others for money to fund gaming activity.

Neglecting responsibilities – Work, family, or health begins to suffer due to excessive time spent gaming.

Significant emotional changes – Feeling anxious, irritable, or distressed when unable to play or after suffering a significant loss.

Healthy Player Habits

Play within a set budget – Sets a spending amount before playing and stops when that limit is reached without feeling pressured.

Viewing gambling as entertainment – Understands that wins are a bonus, not the main goal. Enjoyment is the top priority.

Balancing your time with other activities – Gaming is just a small part of life, not the main daily focus.

Play responsibly – Not playing when stressed, sad, angry, or in an emotionally unstable state.

Know when to stop – Can stop playing with ease once the set time or spending limit is reached.

In-Account
m99y Philosophy: We believe responsible gambling is not merely a rule – it is a culture we cultivate across every aspect of the platform. The well-being of our members matters more than any short-term profit.

What Is Responsible Gambling?

Responsible gaming refers to a balanced approach to online entertainment, where players make conscious, controlled decisions about the time and money they invest. At m99y, this concept is more than a slogan — it is at the core of how we design our platform and engage with every member.

Most players in Malaysia enjoy online gambling as a fun form of entertainment, much like going to the cinema or dining out with family. Problems only arise when gambling becomes more than just entertainment – when it starts affecting a person's finances, personal relationships, or mental health.

M99y takes this responsibility seriously. We not only provide a comprehensive suite of self-control tools, but also train our support team to identify early warning signs and reach out before situations become critical. This is a commitment we have upheld since day one of the platform's operation.

Special Protection for Young Players

M99y strictly enforces a minimum age requirement of 18 years. Our registration process requires thorough identity verification (KYC), including identity document checks, to ensure that no underage individuals can access the platform.

If you are a parent or guardian, we encourage you to:

  • Ensuring your device is protected with a password unknown to children
  • Using parental control software to block access to online gambling sites
  • Have open conversations with your teenagers about the risks of online gambling
  • Report to us immediately if you suspect an account has been opened by a minor

Shared Responsibility: Platform and Player

Responsible gaming is a two-way commitment. m99y upholds our end by providing the necessary tools, information, and support. However, the effectiveness of these measures depends on players' willingness to use them honestly and proactively.

We encourage every member to set their own betting limits early on, rather than waiting until a problem arises. This preventive approach is far more effective than seeking help after the situation has become serious. Think of betting limits like a seatbelt – you put it on not because you plan to have an accident, but as a sensible precaution.

M99y Responsible Gambling Policy

As part of our commitment, m99y adheres to strict responsible gaming industry standards. These include:

  • Absolute ban on advertising targeting vulnerable groups – We do not use marketing strategies that target players who may be experiencing gaming problems
  • Ongoing risk assessment – Our system monitors abnormal gaming patterns and triggers internal reviews when warning signs are detected
  • Support staff training – All m99y customer support agents undergo specialized training in handling responsible gaming cases with empathy and professionalism
  • No pressure to play more – m99y does not use manipulative techniques to push players to game beyond the limits they have set for themselves
  • Respect for self-exclusion decisions – When someone applies for self-exclusion, that decision is fully respected with no attempt to persuade them to return

How Family Can Help

Often, those closest to us are the first to notice when someone begins to struggle with gaming-related issues. If you are concerned about a loved one, here are some approaches you can try:

Start the conversation with an open, non-judgmental attitude. Avoid accusatory or angry tones, as this will only cause them to become defensive and withdraw. Instead, express your concerns based on specific observations – "I've noticed you seem stressed lately, is there anything I can help with?" is far more effective than "You've wasted all your time and money gambling!"

Offering practical support matters too. Accompany them to see a counselor, or help them set limits on their m99y account. Remember that recovery is a journey, not a one-time event — your ongoing support can make a tremendous difference.

For Immediate Assistance: Contact the m99y support team via 24/7 live chat on the platform. We will help you set limits, activate a temporary break, or process a self-exclusion request promptly and confidentially.

FAQ: Responsible Gaming

Limits that reduce gambling activity (such as lowering a deposit limit) take effect immediately and cannot be reversed until the limit period expires. Limits that increase your allowance require a 7-day waiting period before taking effect. This safeguard ensures decisions are made thoughtfully and not on a momentary impulse.

During the self-exclusion period, the balance in your account remains safe. You may contact our support team to request a withdrawal of that balance even while your account is under self-exclusion status. Withdrawals will be processed through the usual method to your registered bank account.

Yes, completely. All information relating to gaming limits, self-exclusion, or your interactions with our support team on responsible gaming matters is fully confidential. m99y does not share this information with any third party, and it is protected under our strict Privacy Policy.

Opening a new account during a self-exclusion period is a violation of m99y's Terms and Conditions. Our detection system uses KYC information to identify such attempts. Any account found to have been opened to circumvent a self-exclusion will be closed immediately and the balance may be withheld for review.

Yes. m99y allows you to set different limits for different game categories such as Sports Betting, Live Casino, Slots, and other games. This gives you finer, more flexible control to manage your gaming habits in each category separately according to your personal preferences.
