Our Commitment
Playing Responsibly Starts Here
qa789 takes responsible gambling seriously. Every player on the platform — whether you're based in Karachi following a live PSL final, in Lahore spinning through a slot session or in Islamabad placing your first bet on an ICC knockout game — has access to the same set of protective tools. These aren't afterthoughts bolted on to satisfy a policy requirement. They're front-and-centre features built into your account settings.
Gambling can be a perfectly enjoyable form of entertainment when approached honestly. The problems begin when a player starts chasing losses, exceeds their own comfort threshold, or continues playing to manage stress rather than for fun. qa789 is designed to give you genuine control — not just the illusion of it.
This page explains the tools available, the warning signs to watch for, and the steps you can take — including asking us to restrict your own account — to ensure that gaming on qa789 stays in its proper place in your life.
qa789 does not claim governmental authorization or licensing by any Pakistani authority. Users in Pakistan are responsible for understanding applicable local law. Nothing on this page constitutes legal or medical advice. If gambling is causing you financial or personal harm, please use the tools below or contact a professional support service.

Protective Features
Tools to Keep You in Control
Every qa789 account comes with a full suite of responsible gambling tools. They're accessible in your account settings without needing to contact support for most of them.
Deposit Limits
Set a maximum amount you can deposit per day, week or month in PKR. Once your limit is reached, the cashier will decline further deposits until the period resets. You can reduce a limit immediately; increases take effect after a cooling-off delay to protect you from impulsive decisions.
Loss Limits
Define the maximum amount you are comfortable losing in a given period. When your net losses reach that threshold, further gameplay is suspended for the duration. This tool is particularly useful if you know you tend to chase losses after a disappointing cricket bet or casino session.
Session Time Limits
Set a maximum session length. When your time is up, the platform will automatically pause your session with a clear notification. You decide whether to continue — there's no automatic resumption. This tool helps prevent the kind of extended play that often leads to poor decisions.
Reality Check Reminders
Configure timed on-screen pop-ups that show you exactly how long you have been playing and your net result for the session. Seeing real numbers in real time — rather than getting lost in the game — is one of the most effective ways to stay grounded and make active choices.
Cooling-Off Periods
Request a short break from gambling — typically 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days — during which your account remains open for viewing but gameplay and deposits are blocked. This tool is ideal if you feel you need a temporary pause without committing to full self-exclusion.
Self-Exclusion
If you feel that gambling is having a negative impact on your life, you can request self-exclusion. This permanently or temporarily closes your account for a defined minimum period — typically a minimum of six months. During exclusion, qa789 will not send you any promotional communications. Contact [email protected] to initiate this immediately.
Awareness
Recognising Problem Gambling
Problem gambling does not always look dramatic. It can develop gradually and is often harder to spot in yourself than in others. The signs below are not diagnostic criteria — they are prompts for honest self-reflection.
If several of the warning signs below apply to your experience, we strongly encourage you to use the tools available in your qa789 account or speak to a professional support service.
Important: Responsible gambling tools on qa789 are supplementary safeguards. They are not a substitute for professional counselling or support if your gambling has become harmful. Please seek qualified help — a support service in your area or your general physician — if gaming is affecting your health, finances or relationships.
Chasing Losses
Increasing your bet sizes or session length specifically to recover money you have already lost — particularly after a cricket match result or slot session that went against you.
Borrowing to Gamble
Using borrowed money, credit facilities or funds set aside for household expenses, bills or savings to fund deposits on the platform.
Losing Sleep Over It
Lying awake thinking about past gambling sessions, planning your next bet, or feeling anxious about money owed as a result of gambling.
Hiding Your Gambling
Concealing your gaming activity, spending amounts or frequency from family members or close friends, or feeling a need to be secretive about your use of qa789.
Unable to Stop
Repeatedly trying and failing to cut back or stop gambling, or feeling restless and irritable when attempting to reduce your time on the platform.
Neglecting Responsibilities
Gaming is taking priority over work, family time, social commitments or personal obligations in Karachi, Lahore, or wherever you are located.
Self-Assessment
A Quick Honest Check-In
These questions are not a clinical tool — they're a prompt to pause and reflect. If you find yourself answering "yes" to several of them frequently, please consider using the account controls available to you or reaching out to support.
Have you deposited more than you originally planned in the last 30 days, even after telling yourself you would stop?
Have you ever placed bets on qa789 using money that was earmarked for household bills, rent, savings or other essential expenses?
Do you find yourself thinking about betting or gaming throughout the day — planning your next session or replaying past results?
After losing, do you feel a strong urge to deposit again quickly to win it back, rather than accepting the loss and stepping away?
Have you been dishonest with a family member, partner or close friend about how much time or money you spend on gaming?
Have you felt anxious, irritable or restless when you were unable to access the platform or when you tried to cut back?
Has gaming on qa789 — or anywhere else — negatively affected your work performance, relationships or daily routines in the past few months?
If several of these resonate, the options below are available to you right now — no judgment, no delay.

How to Exclude Yourself from qa789
Self-exclusion is the strongest tool available to you. When you request self-exclusion, your account is suspended for the agreed period and you will not be able to deposit, place bets or access gameplay. We will also stop sending you marketing and promotional communications for the duration of your exclusion.
Requesting self-exclusion is not a complicated process. You do not need to provide a detailed explanation. Contact our support team via email or live chat, state that you want to self-exclude and specify whether you want a temporary period (minimum six months) or a permanent exclusion. Your request will be actioned promptly.
To request self-exclusion, contact:
Email: [email protected]
Subject Line: "Self-Exclusion Request — [Your Registered Email]"
Once self-exclusion is active, please also take steps to remove qa789 from any saved passwords, delete any bookmarks, and if necessary, consider using a device-level content filtering tool to block gaming sites on your own hardware.
Responsible Play Tips
Keeping Gaming in Its Proper Place
Age Policy
Adults Only — 18 Years or Older
qa789 is strictly an adults-only platform. No person under the age of 18 — or the higher minimum age required by the operator's licence jurisdiction — may register an account, make a deposit or participate in any form of gaming on the platform. This policy is non-negotiable and enforced through mandatory KYC verification.
KYC Verification

If you share devices with children or young adults in your household, we encourage you to use device-level parental control software to restrict access to gaming sites — including qa789. Never share your login credentials.
Report Underage Access
If you believe a minor has accessed or registered on qa789, contact [email protected] immediately. We treat such reports as a priority and will take immediate action, including account suspension and data deletion.
