Responsible Gambling at 8700 — Play Safe, Live Balanced
8700 is committed to ensuring every Malaysian user enjoys a safe, healthy, and controlled entertainment experience. This page provides the guidance, self-control tools, and support information you need.
What is 8700's commitment to responsible gambling?
8700 believes online entertainment should always remain enjoyable and within your control. We do not encourage excessive gambling and consistently put user wellbeing ahead of short-term profit. Our commitment to responsible gambling is not just policy — it is part of how we operate every day.
As an entertainment platform serving Malaysian users, 8700 takes active steps to maintain a safe environment. This includes providing self-control tools, educating users on the risks of problem gambling, and ensuring the platform remains inaccessible to those under 18. We also partner with professional support resources to make sure users who need help can access it easily.
Recognise the signs of risky gambling behaviour
Gambling becomes a problem when it starts to interfere with daily life, relationships, and finances. Recognising the early warning signs is important so preventive action can be taken before things escalate. Key risk behaviours to watch out for include:
- Feeling compelled to play even when you cannot afford to.
- Continuously increasing bet amounts to chase the same level of excitement.
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not playing.
- Spending money meant for daily necessities such as rent, food, or bills.
- Lying to family members or friends about gambling habits.
- Chasing losses with bigger bets.
- Neglecting work, family, or social responsibilities due to time spent gambling.
If you recognise two or more of the signs above in yourself or someone you care about, it is strongly advised to seek help promptly and consider the self-control options available on the 8700 platform.
How to set healthy time limits and budgets
The most effective way to maintain healthy gaming habits is to set clear limits before you start playing — not after. 8700 encourages every user to practise the following:
- Daily/weekly budget limit: Decide how much MYR (RM) you can comfortably spend on entertainment without affecting your essential living costs. Treat this amount as an entertainment expense, not an investment.
- Session Time Limit: Set a maximum duration for each session — for example, one to two hours. Use your device's timer as a reminder.
- Regular breaks: Take a break from the platform for a few days each month. Planned pauses help you maintain a healthy perspective.
- Avoid playing when stressed: Avoid using gambling as a way to cope with emotional stress, as this can lead to poor decisions and unplanned losses.
- Track your spending: Record how much you deposit and withdraw each month. Knowing the actual figures helps you stay in control.
Self-control tools available to 8700 users
8700 provides a range of self-control tools that users can activate at any time through their account or by contacting our support team:
- Deposit Limit: You can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits on your account. Once a limit is in place, the system will not allow deposits beyond that amount within the selected period.
- Cooling-Off Period: This option lets you temporarily suspend access to your account for a set period — anywhere from a few days to several weeks. It is ideal if you feel you need a break but do not wish to close your account permanently.
- Self-exclusion: If you feel you need to stop playing for an extended period, you can apply for self-exclusion. During the exclusion period, you will be unable to log in or make deposits to your 8700 account. Contact our support team at [email protected] to begin the process.
All self-control requests are handled seriously and promptly by the 8700 team. We will not attempt to persuade you to reverse any self-control decision you have made.

Minor Protection & Lifestyle Balance
The 8700 platform sets a minimum age requirement of 18 for all users. We enforce age verification during registration and withdrawal processing to ensure the protection of minors.
If you are a parent or guardian, we encourage you to take the following steps to protect the children in your home:
- Never share your 8700 account login details with anyone, including family members.
- Log out of your account after every session, especially on shared devices.
- Use parental control software on devices accessible to children.
- Have open conversations with your children about the risks of online gambling.
Keeping a healthy balance between entertainment and daily life is key to responsible gambling. Make sure gaming never takes priority over what matters most — family, health, work, and financial responsibilities. 8700 is here for entertainment, not as a solution to financial problems or life stress.
