Gambling is entertainment — and at ar789 we work hard to keep it that way. This page outlines the tools, policies, and resources ar789 has in place to ensure every player in Pakistan can enjoy the platform safely, within their means, and on their own terms.
Responsible gaming is not an afterthought at ar789 — it is built into the platform's foundations. Below are the six pillars of our player protection framework, active for every account registered on ar789.
Every ar789 account goes through mandatory identity and age verification before any real-money gameplay is permitted. Players must be 21 or older and must provide a valid CNIC, passport, or government-issued photo ID to complete the KYC process.
ar789 allows every player to set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from their account dashboard. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased for a mandatory cooling-off period of 24 hours.
Players who feel they need a break from gambling can activate self-exclusion instantly from their ar789 account settings. Self-exclusion periods range from 30 days to permanent closure. During exclusion, login is blocked and all promotional communications are suspended.
ar789 sends in-session reality-check notifications to remind you how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered in the current session. You can set session time limits and loss limits from your account settings at any time.
ar789's customer support team is available around the clock via live chat directly from your account dashboard. Support agents are trained to identify signs of problem gambling and to guide players towards the appropriate tools and resources — without judgment.
ar789's platform automatically monitors gameplay patterns for indicators of problem gambling — such as rapid session escalation, large deposit spikes, or repeated loss-chasing behaviour. Where these are detected, ar789 may proactively reach out to offer responsible gaming resources.
ar789 enforces a strict minimum age of 21 years for all players. No exceptions. Age is verified at registration using government-issued identification, and suspicious accounts are subject to immediate review and suspension.
Gambling involves real money, real risk, and real psychological impact. Young people are disproportionately vulnerable to developing gambling-related harm, which is why ar789 enforces the 21+ age restriction rigorously — not just as a licensing requirement, but because it is the right thing to do for our players and for Pakistani society.
Parents and guardians in households across Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and Faisalabad are encouraged to use parental control software to restrict access to gambling platforms on shared devices. ar789 also recommends keeping your login credentials private and logging out after every session on shared computers or mobile phones.
Zero Tolerance: Any player found to have falsified their age during registration will have their account permanently closed. Any winnings accumulated on an underage account will be forfeited in full. Deposited funds will be returned to the original payment source (JazzCash, EasyPaisa, HBL, UBL, or Meezan Bank) after investigation.
Parental Controls: If you share a device with minors, we strongly recommend enabling device-level parental controls and keeping your ar789 login credentials private at all times.
Problem gambling can develop gradually and is not always easy to recognise in yourself. ar789 wants every player to be aware of the warning signs. If several of the following apply to you or someone you know, it may be time to use ar789's responsible gaming tools or seek outside support.
Answer honestly. If you find yourself answering "yes" to three or more of these questions, we encourage you to use ar789's self-exclusion or deposit-limit tools immediately, or contact our support team.
Have you ever gambled with money that was set aside for essential expenses like rent, groceries, or bills?
Do you find it difficult to stop gambling once you have started, even when you planned to play for only a short time?
Have you ever felt the urge to bet more after a losing session in order to win back your losses?
Has gambling caused any tension, arguments, or concern within your family or close relationships?
Have you ever felt guilty, ashamed, or worried about your gambling habits after a session?
Do you gamble as a way to manage difficult emotions, stress, or low moods rather than purely for entertainment?

All of the following tools are available free of charge to every ar789 player, accessible directly from the account settings dashboard. No waiting period is required to activate protective tools — they take effect immediately.
Set a maximum amount you can deposit per day, week, or month. Once your limit is reached, further deposits are blocked until the period resets. Limit reductions take effect immediately; increases require a 24-hour cooling-off period.
Account SettingsBlock yourself from logging into ar789 for a period of your choosing — from 30 days up to permanent exclusion. During exclusion, your account is locked, marketing is suspended, and you cannot be re-activated before the exclusion period ends.
Immediate EffectSet a maximum continuous session duration. ar789 will display a pop-up reality check at intervals you define, showing your total session time and net position. When your limit is reached, you are automatically logged out.
Account SettingsDefine the maximum net loss you are comfortable with over a given period. Once your defined loss threshold is reached, ar789 will prevent further wagering until the next period begins — protecting your bankroll automatically.
Account SettingsNeed a short break without committing to full self-exclusion? A cool-off period temporarily suspends your access for 24 hours, 48 hours, or 7 days. It is a lighter-touch option to step away and reset without permanently closing your account.
Immediate EffectCustomise how frequently ar789 reminds you of your session duration and total wagers. Alerts can be set to appear every 15, 30, or 60 minutes. Each alert gives you the option to continue, review your limits, or log out immediately.
CustomisableDisable all promotional communications — bonus offers, deposit match emails, SMS promotions — at any time from your notification settings. Transactional messages such as withdrawal confirmations will still be sent for security purposes.
Account SettingsAccess a full, exportable history of all your deposits, withdrawals, wagers, and session durations at any time. Reviewing your activity history is a healthy habit that keeps you informed and in control of your gambling behaviour.
Always AvailableActivating self-exclusion on ar789 takes less than two minutes. Follow these steps from your account dashboard. If you need assistance at any point, our 24/7 support team can guide you through the process via live chat.
Visit ar789.app and log into your registered player account using your credentials. Ensure you are on a secure, private connection.
Click on your profile icon in the top-right corner of the dashboard and select "Account Settings" from the dropdown menu.
Inside Account Settings, locate the "Responsible Gaming" tab. This is where all player protection tools — including deposit limits, session limits, and self-exclusion — are managed.
Select "Self-Exclusion", choose your preferred exclusion period (30 days, 90 days, 6 months, 1 year, or permanent), and confirm your selection. The exclusion takes effect immediately and cannot be reversed before the period ends.
You will receive a confirmation email to your registered address. Your account will be locked, all marketing communications will be suspended, and your profile will be flagged to prevent re-registration attempts during the exclusion period.
The vast majority of ar789 players enjoy the platform as a form of entertainment — cricket betting, casino games, slots, and more — without any negative impact on their lives. Keeping it that way is straightforward when you follow a few simple principles.
Set aside a fixed entertainment budget for gambling — money that you can afford to lose entirely without affecting your essential expenses such as rent, bills, groceries, or family responsibilities. Never gamble with borrowed money or funds meant for necessities.
Gambling outcomes are based on chance. Any winnings are a pleasant bonus — not a reliable income stream. Building financial plans around gambling winnings is a common early warning sign of problem gambling. Keep expectations realistic at all times.
Decide how long you will play and how much you will spend before you open the ar789 lobby — not after. Use ar789's built-in session time and deposit limit tools so the platform enforces your decisions automatically, even in the heat of the moment.
If you find yourself turning to ar789 to escape stress, anxiety, relationship problems, or difficult emotions, that is a sign to step back. Gambling works best as entertainment — not as a coping mechanism. Talk to someone you trust, or contact our support team.
Chasing losses — increasing your bets after a losing run to try to recover money — is one of the most destructive gambling behaviours. If you have hit your loss limit, stop for the session. Tomorrow is a fresh start. Use ar789's loss limit tool to make this automatic.
Long, unbroken gambling sessions impair judgment and increase impulsive decision-making. ar789's reality-check alerts remind you to take breaks at intervals you set. Step away from the screen, have a cup of chai, and return with a clear head — or not at all if you have hit your limit.
ar789 is Pakistan's most trusted online casino and sports betting platform — built with your wellbeing in mind. Set your limits, play within your means, and enjoy the game. 21+ only.
