tapkad believes that gaming should always be fun, controlled, and well within your means. Our responsible gaming framework is built specifically for Pakistani players — giving you the tools, knowledge, and support to stay in charge of your experience.
For tapkad, responsible gaming is not just a checkbox — it is a core part of how we operate for every player across Pakistan, whether you are in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, or Faisalabad. We want every session on our platform to feel enjoyable, not stressful.
Gaming and cricket betting should be treated as entertainment, exactly the same way you would budget for a night out or a PSL match ticket. The moment gaming stops being fun and starts affecting your finances, relationships, or mental wellbeing, it has crossed a line — and tapkad gives you every tool available to pull it back.
Our responsible gaming program covers age verification, deposit and loss limits, session time reminders, reality checks, cooling-off periods, and full self-exclusion options. All these controls are available directly from your tapkad account settings at any time, no questions asked.
If any of the following apply to you, tapkad strongly encourages you to use our self-help tools or speak to a support specialist.
tapkad puts a full suite of responsible gaming controls in your hands. Every tool below is available from your account settings with immediate effect — no waiting period, no approval required.
Set a maximum PKR deposit amount on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Reductions apply immediately; increases require a 24-hour cooling-off period before taking effect.
Cap the total amount you are permitted to lose across all tapkad games — cricket betting, slots, live casino — within a defined time window. If your net losses hit your chosen PKR ceiling, your account is automatically paused for the remainder of that period.
Set a maximum session duration so tapkad logs you out automatically after the period you specify. Reality check pop-ups can also be configured to remind you how long you have been playing at regular intervals — every 30, 60, or 90 minutes.
Need a short break from tapkad? A cooling-off period temporarily suspends your access for a fixed duration you choose — 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. The restriction cannot be lifted early.
For players who need a more serious, longer-term break, self-exclusion closes your tapkad account for a minimum period of 6 months, up to a permanent exclusion. Any remaining balance is returned. Marketing communications stop immediately and permanently.
Enable periodic on-screen notifications that display your current session time, total amount wagered, and net win/loss position since you logged in. These prompts give you an honest picture of your gaming activity so you can make informed decisions in real time.
Activating self-exclusion on tapkad is straightforward and takes less than two minutes. The process is designed to have no friction — we want nothing to stand between you and the protection you need.
Visit tapkad.net and log in using your registered email address and password. Make sure you are accessing the official tapkad platform.
From the account menu (top right corner), select "Account Settings" and then choose the "Responsible Gaming" tab in your profile dashboard.
Choose "Self-Exclusion" from the list of available tools. You will be presented with duration options: 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanent exclusion.
Select the duration that best fits your situation. If you are unsure, tapkad recommends starting with a 6-month exclusion. You can always extend the period later if needed.
Review the terms of the exclusion, check the confirmation box, and submit. tapkad will send a confirmation email to your registered address. Your account will be suspended immediately and all marketing communications will stop.

tapkad has a zero-tolerance policy toward underage gaming. The minimum age to register and use the tapkad platform is 21 years old. This restriction applies to all services — cricket betting, PSL wagering, slots, live casino, and all other tapkad products.
Age verification is a mandatory part of the tapkad registration process. We require documentary proof of age — including a valid CNIC, passport, or other government-issued identification — before a player can complete KYC and make deposits. tapkad reserves the right to request additional proof of age at any point during a player's lifetime on the platform.
If tapkad identifies or has reasonable suspicion that a registered user is under 21 years of age, the account will be suspended immediately, all active bets will be voided, and deposited funds will be returned to the original payment source after identity verification. The incident may be reported to relevant regulatory authorities.
If you share devices with your children or younger family members, please ensure your tapkad account is protected with a strong password that is not accessible to minors. Log out of the platform whenever you are not actively using it, and consider using parental control software on shared household devices.
If you believe a person under 21 has accessed or is attempting to access tapkad — whether that is your child, a younger sibling, or someone else in your household — please contact tapkad support immediately via live chat at tapkad.net or email [email protected]. We will act without delay.
