For individuals aged 21 and above only

All activities at pk lok — including casino games, slots, and sports betting — are strictly for users aged 21 and above. Participation by minors is completely prohibited. Proof of age is mandatory during account verification, and any violation will result in the account being closed.

Gaming is entertainment, not an obligation

Online betting and casino games can be an enjoyable activity when approached with the right mindset. pk lok always wants its members to see this as a small part of their entertainment — not as a solution to financial problems.

Responsible gaming means deciding your limits before you start. Decide in advance how much time you will spend and how much money you will use — before you begin playing. Chasing losses by placing larger bets to recover what you lost is a dangerous habit that can quickly get out of control.

Our Terms and Conditions clearly outline the responsible gaming rules that every member should read. Always follow these guidelines to protect yourself and your family.

Tools to keep yourself protected

pk lok offers its members a number of practical limit-setting and control features. Using these, you can consciously manage your gaming habits.

Set a deposit limit

Set a maximum on your daily, weekly, or monthly deposits. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately. To increase a limit, a set waiting period applies.

Deposit Limit

Control your playing time

Set a limit on how many hours you play each day or week. When the time limit is reached, your session will end automatically and you will receive a notification.

Time Control

Loss limit

Set a limit so that you cannot continue playing once you have lost a certain amount. This protects you from chasing losses and helps you avoid larger financial harm.

Loss Control

Cooling-off break

If you feel you need a break, you can temporarily close your account for 7 days, 30 days, or 90 days. You will not be able to log in during the break.

Temporary Break

Self-Exclusion

If the problem feels serious, choose long-term self-exclusion. Activating this feature closes access to your account and blocks any attempt to open a new one.

Permanent Exclusion

Reality check

After a long continuous session, a message appears on screen reminding you how long you have been playing and how much you have spent. This helps you make informed decisions.

Awareness

Recognise the warning signs of a problem

Problematic gambling habits do not always appear suddenly — they develop gradually. If you notice the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it is important to take them seriously.

⚠️

Repeatedly playing to recover lost money

Placing larger bets after a loss to try to win back what you lost is the first and most obvious sign of problematic behaviour.

⚠️

Hiding it from family and friends

Concealing the amount you play or your gambling habits from loved ones, lying about it, or avoiding the topic is a clear warning sign.

⚠️

Borrowing money or selling assets to fund gambling

Using bill money for gambling, taking out loans, or selling valuables are signs of a serious problem.

⚠️

Feeling restless when unable to gamble

Becoming irritable, anxious, or restless when trying to stop gambling are signs of dependency.

⚠️

Losing focus at work or studies

Prioritising gambling over work, studies, or daily responsibilities and being unable to concentrate on tasks.

⚠️

Gradually increasing bets to get the same excitement

No longer finding satisfaction in smaller bets and repeatedly increasing bet sizes to feel the same level of excitement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about responsible gaming.

The duration of self-exclusion depends on the period you requested. After a short-term cooling-off period ends, your account is reactivated automatically. For long-term self-exclusion, it is not possible to reopen the account before the set period expires. Once the period is over, you must contact pk lok support and complete a waiting period.

A request to lower your deposit limit takes effect immediately. However, increasing a limit requires a set waiting period — this is designed to prevent impulsive decisions to raise limits and place excessive bets.

You can report it through pk lok's 24/7 live chat or by email. Depending on the situation, the support team will help strengthen the account's security or temporarily restrict access.

Gambling becomes problematic when it is no longer a voluntary form of entertainment and becomes difficult to control. Obsessing over recovering lost money, financial strain, relationship tension, or neglecting everyday responsibilities are clear signs of problem gambling.

pk lok's 24/7 live chat is available directly from the site — it is the fastest option. You can also contact us by email. In both cases, you can communicate in Bengali and the support team will respond promptly.

pk lok verifies age during account registration and again during identity verification. Accounts for anyone under 21 are not approved. If you suspect a minor is using an account, contact support immediately.
