Six Core Pillars Responsible Gaming

Every feature we build is to ensure you remain in full control while enjoying the ong39 platform.

Adjustable Deposit Limit

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits according to your financial capacity. Limits take effect immediately and can only be increased after a 48-hour waiting period to protect your decisions.

Gaming Session Time Limit

Set a maximum duration for each gaming session. The ong39 platform will issue a warning when the time limit is approaching and automatically log you out when the limit expires, so you get a timely break.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a break from gaming activity, you can activate self-exclusion mode for 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or longer. During this period, your account will be fully blocked from any wagering activity.

Configurable Loss Limit

Control how much you are willing to lose within a given period. Once the loss limit is reached, the ong39 platform will automatically stop allowing new wagers for that period.

Activity History Review

Access a complete record of all your gaming activity, deposits, and withdrawals directly from your account dashboard. This full transparency helps you make your own assessment of your playing habits over time.

24/7 Expert Support

The ong39 support team is specially trained to assist members who need guidance on responsible gaming. Contact us via live chat at any time – we are ready to listen and help without any judgement.

01What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means enjoying online entertainment – whether slots, casino, or sports betting – in a controlled, mindful way that does not harm your finances, relationships, or mental health. At ong39, we view responsible gaming not merely as a legal obligation, but as a core value that shapes how we design our platform from the ground up.

The difference between healthy entertainment and a problematic habit often begins with self-awareness. When you play for fun, relaxation, and within a pre-set budget, that is healthy entertainment. When you start playing to chase losses, borrow money to bet, or feel unable to stop – those are signs that require immediate attention.

Ong39 provides a comprehensive suite of tools and support to help every member stay on track. All self-control tools are accessible directly from your account at no extra cost and without needing to contact anyone first.

ong39 Core Principles: Playing is for entertainment. It is not a way to generate income, resolve financial problems, or escape daily stress. Set your limits before you play, not after.

In Malaysia, awareness of problem gambling risks is growing. ong39 actively aligns with international industry guidelines to ensure our platform does not exploit any vulnerable individuals. We take this responsibility seriously, because we know that behind every account is a real person.

02ong39 Self-Control Tools

The ong39 platform comes with a range of self-control tools that you can activate or adjust directly through your account settings. Here is a quick guide to each available tool:

01

Deposit Limit

Set a maximum deposit amount within a 24-hour, 7-day, or 30-day period. Once the limit is reached, the system will automatically decline any further deposit attempts until the period resets.

02

Loss Limit

Set a net loss limit you are willing to absorb. The platform will block new bets once this limit is reached, regardless of your account balance at that time.

03

Session Time Limit

Set a maximum duration for each login session. You will receive a 10-minute warning before the time limit, and the system will automatically log you out when the time is up.

04

Temporary Break

Choose to block your account for 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During the break period, you cannot log in, make deposits, or participate in any games.

05

Long-Term Self-Exclusion

For exclusions exceeding 30 days or permanent exclusion, contact the ong39 support team directly. These requests will be processed within 24 hours and cannot be reversed by the member.

06

Real-Time Alerts

Enable in-app notifications that will automatically remind you of your playing duration, amount spent, and limits approaching during active sessions.

All self-control tools listed above can be accessed via My Account → Settings → Responsible Gaming. Decreases take effect immediately, while increases require a 48-hour waiting period as an added layer of protection.

03Warning Signs of Problem Gambling to Watch Out For

Problem gambling rarely develops overnight. It typically grows gradually and often goes unnoticed by the individual. Recognising the early warning signs is the most important first step toward getting help before the problem becomes more serious.

  • Chasing losses – feeling compelled to keep playing after a loss in hopes of recovering the money lost.
  • Borrowing money or selling assets to fund betting or to cover losses from gambling.
  • Hiding gambling activity from family members, a partner, or close friends out of shame or fear of being seen as having a problem.
  • Neglecting work, academic, or family responsibilities due to excessive time spent on gambling.
  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or uncomfortable when unable to gamble or when trying to cut back on gambling activity.
  • Using gambling as a way to escape problems, work stress, depression, or negative feelings in daily life.
  • Repeatedly promising to stop or cut down on gambling but failing to follow through, even with a strong desire to do so.
  • Needing to increase the amount wagered over time in order to achieve the same level of excitement as before.
If you recognise two or more of the signs above in yourself or someone you care about, it is time to act. Reaching out to ong39 support or an external professional body is a courageous step to be proud of, not ashamed of.

04Self-Assessment – Check Your Playing Habits

Take a moment to answer the following questions honestly with yourself. This assessment is not a formal test, but it can help you gain a clearer picture of your relationship with gambling.

These questions are adapted from internationally recognised self-assessment guidelines by responsible gambling organisations:

Have you ever played longer or spent more than you originally planned?

Have you ever felt the need to hide your gambling activity or the amount you spend from others?

Have you ever used money set aside for essential needs (rent, food, bills) for wagering purposes?

Do you feel stressed, guilty, or uncomfortable when thinking about your gambling activity?

Have you ever tried to stop or reduce your gambling but were unable to do so?

Have you ever borrowed money or sold belongings to fund your betting?

If you answered "yes" to any of the questions above, we encourage you to speak with the ong39 support team or contact an external support organisation. There are no wrong answers here – honesty with yourself is the first step toward positive change.

05Vulnerable Group Protection

Child & Youth Protection

The ong39 platform is restricted to individuals aged 18 and above. We apply a strict age verification process during registration and KYC checks before any deposit or withdrawal is permitted. Should there be any indication that an account is being used by an underage individual, the account will be suspended immediately pending investigation.

For parents and guardians, we recommend using parental control software on devices shared with children and teenagers. Such software can block access to gambling websites entirely and serves as an effective additional layer of protection.

At-Risk Member Protection

Ong39 identifies and gives special attention to members who display concerning usage patterns. Our platform monitoring system detects patterns such as sudden spikes in deposit amounts, unusually long gaming sessions, or repeated deposit attempts after a limit has been reached.

When such patterns are detected, our team may proactively reach out to offer information about self-control tools or external support resources. This is not intended to judge you, but forms part of our commitment to member well-being.

ong39 will never encourage members to increase their deposit limits or continue playing when signs of a problem are detected. Any staff member who violates this policy will face strict disciplinary action.

06How to Get Help

Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. If you or someone you know needs support with a gambling problem, the following helplines are available:

07Responsible Gaming FAQ

Log in to your ong39 account, then go to My Account → Settings → Responsible Gaming → Deposit Limit. Choose either a daily, weekly, or monthly limit, enter your desired amount, and click Save. The new limit takes effect immediately. If you choose to increase your limit later, a 48-hour waiting period will be applied automatically.

For short-term self-exclusion (up to 30 days) activated via account settings, you will need to contact the ong39 support team to request early cancellation. Requests will be assessed and a cooling-off period of at least 7 days will be applied before the account can be reactivated. For permanent exclusion, no cancellation is permitted.

Your account balance remains safe during your self-exclusion period. You may contact the ong39 support team to request a withdrawal of your available balance. Withdrawals will be processed to your registered bank account within 3–5 business days with no penalties or additional deductions.

No. All information related to your account, including your self-exclusion status, is confidential and shared only with you. ong39 will not disclose this information to any third party, including family members, without your written consent, except as required by law.

A deposit limit decrease takes effect immediately once you save the change. An increase requires a mandatory 48-hour waiting period before the new limit comes into force. This is a protective measure designed to give you time to reconsider the decision.

The first step is to stop playing immediately and close the platform. Take a breath and reach out to someone you trust. Then, activate the temporary break mode through your ong39 account settings to block access for the time being. If this feeling of pressure recurs, we strongly encourage you to contact the ong39 support team or Talian Kasih at 15999 to speak with a trained counsellor.
