1 What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means enjoying wagering activities as a form of entertainment — not as a way to solve financial problems, escape stress, or meet emotional needs. For coba8, this is more than just a slogan; it is a core principle that shapes how we design our platform and engage with our members.

Gambling, when approached the right way, can be an enjoyable and entertaining activity — much like watching a movie or going out for dinner. Problems arise when it begins to affect a person's finances, relationships, or mental health. At coba8, we want to ensure every member stays on the safe side.

Important reminder: Every win in a game depends on luck and cannot be guaranteed. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose, such as rent, bill payments, or emergency savings.

Coba8 fully supports responsible gaming initiatives and has implemented various tools and policies to help members manage their platform usage more wisely and safely.

2 coba8 Core Principles in Responsible Gaming

Coba8 takes a comprehensive and proactive approach to responsible gaming. Here are the core principles that guide us:

  • Full transparency — All winning odds, game rules, and betting limits are clearly displayed so members can make informed decisions.
  • Minor Protection — Our strict KYC verification process ensures only individuals aged 18 and above can become members and play on the coba8 platform.
  • Self-control tools — Members have full control to set deposit limits, loss limits, session limits, and self-exclusion options without needing to contact support.
  • No pressure or coercion — coba8 does not use aggressive marketing tactics or target members experiencing financial difficulties to continue gambling.
  • Active Support — The coba8 support team is trained to identify signs of problem gambling and offer assistance or referrals to professional help resources when needed.
  • Behaviour Monitoring — Our system monitors unusual usage patterns and will reach out to members who show signs of high-risk play.

3 Control Tools Provided by coba8

Coba8 provides a range of control tools that you can use directly through your account settings. All tools are free, easily accessible, and take effect immediately or within a set timeframe.

Deposit Limit

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Once this limit is reached, the system will automatically block any additional deposits until the next period.

Loss Limit

Set a maximum loss amount you are willing to sustain within a given period. Once this limit is reached, your account will be temporarily blocked from placing new bets.

Session Time Limit

Limit the duration of each gaming session. The platform will send an alert when your time limit is nearly reached and will automatically end the session if the limit is exceeded.

Playing Break (Cool-off)

Choose to take a break for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During the break period, your account cannot be used for betting, but you can still withdraw your remaining balance.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a longer break, the self-exclusion option allows you to block your account for 6 months to 5 years. This cannot be cancelled early.

Block Promotional Ads

Opt out of receiving any emails, bonus offers, or marketing communications from coba8 at any time through your account notification settings.

How to access these tools: Log in to your coba8 account → Go to Account Settings → Select tab Responsible Gaming. All limits you set will take effect immediately. Any request to decrease limit takes effect immediately; requests to increase limit require a 24-hour waiting period to protect you from impulsive decisions.

4 Recognise the Signs of Problem Gambling

Gambling addiction can develop gradually without you realising it. It is not a matter of personal weakness — it is a serious health condition that can affect anyone regardless of background or income. The earlier you recognise the signs, the easier it is to get help.

Here are some warning signs to watch for in yourself or someone you care about:

  • Feeling the need to gamble with increasingly larger amounts of money to get the same excitement as before.
  • Repeatedly trying to stop or cut back on gambling but failing to do so.
  • Feeling restless, irritable, or uncomfortable when trying to cut back on gambling.
  • Gambling as a way to escape feelings of stress, anxiety, guilt, or personal problems.
  • Frequently chasing losses — continuing to gamble in an attempt to recover money that has been lost.
  • Lying to family members, friends, or loved ones about gambling activities or the amounts of money involved.
  • Borrowing money, selling assets, or using funds meant for basic necessities for gambling purposes.
  • Neglecting work, family, or social responsibilities due to time and energy spent on gambling.
  • Continuing to gamble even when aware that it is causing serious problems in your life.

If you identify 3 or more of the above signs in yourself, this is a serious signal. Don't wait until things get worse. Contact coba8 support immediately or refer to one of the help organisations listed in the section below.

5 Self-Assessment Questionnaire

Answer the following questions honestly. This is not an official test, but it can help you assess your relationship with gambling. If you answer "Yes" to most of these questions, consider speaking with a professional or using the self-control tools provided by coba8.

1

Have you ever taken time off work or school to gamble?

2

Has gambling ever caused problems in your home life or relationships?

3

Has gambling affected your reputation or caused you embarrassment?

4

Have you ever felt regret after gambling?

5

Have you ever gambled to get money to pay off debts or solve financial problems?

6

Has gambling made you less productive or less motivated at work?

7

After a loss, do you feel the urge to return to gambling as soon as possible to win it back?

8

Have you ever sold something or borrowed money to fund gambling?

This questionnaire is adapted from the Gamblers Anonymous Twenty Questions. If you answer "Yes" to 7 or more questions, you may be experiencing a serious gambling problem and are advised to seek professional help.

6 Steps to Getting Help

Acknowledging that you need help is the bravest and most important step you can take. Here are practical steps you can take right now:

1

Contact coba8 Support

Our 24/7 support team is trained to assist members experiencing difficulties. We can help you activate account limits, initiate a playing break, or process a self-exclusion immediately. Reach us via live chat on the platform.

2

Activate Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need to stop completely, activate the self-exclusion option in your account settings. This will block your access to the coba8 platform for the period you choose, and it cannot be changed early.

3

Get Professional Support

Speak with a professional counsellor or join a support group. In Malaysia, you can contact the National Drug Treatment and Rehabilitation Centre (AADK), Talian Kasih 15999, or Befrienders Kuala Lumpur for confidential and free emotional support.

4

Involve Loved Ones

Don't face this alone. Talk to a trusted family member or friend about what you are going through. Social support is one of the most important factors in recovering from gambling addiction.

5

Manage Your Finances

Once you have taken the first step, consider seeking financial advice from a certified advisor to help you restructure your finances and build an emergency fund as a long-term safeguard.

Remember: Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. coba8 is always by your side throughout this process, and we will never judge any member who chooses to take back control of their life.

7 Protection of Children and Young People

Coba8 enforces a strict minimum age limit of 18 years old for all members. Our identity verification (KYC) process ensures no underage individuals can register or access the platform.

If you share a device with younger family members, we recommend the following steps:

  • Always log out of your coba8 account when you are done playing, especially on shared devices.
  • Do not save your coba8 password in a web browser on any device accessible to children.
  • Use parental control software on shared devices to block access to online gambling sites.
  • Do not let children or teenagers watch your gaming sessions, as this can normalise gambling at a young age.

Report immediately: If you suspect an underage individual has registered or is using a coba8 account, please contact our support team immediately. We will investigate and take action without delay.

FAQ — Responsible Gaming

Yes, all control tools including deposit limits, loss limits, session limits, and self-exclusion can be accessed directly through your account settings under the Responsible Gaming tab. You do not need to contact the support team unless you require additional assistance.

Once self-exclusion is activated, your account will be fully blocked from placing any wagers for the period you select. Any balance in your account can still be withdrawn. Self-exclusion cannot be cancelled early — this is an intentional safety feature to ensure you get a genuinely meaningful break.

Yes. The coba8 system continuously monitors playing patterns. If we detect sudden changes in playing behaviour — such as a sharp increase in betting amounts or unusually long gaming sessions — our team will reach out to the member to offer support and remind them of the available control tools.

In Malaysia, you can contact Talian Kasih 15999 (24 hours, free) for crisis support, or Befrienders Kuala Lumpur for confidential emotional support. You can also obtain counselling referrals through the Ministry of Health Malaysia or your nearest government hospital. coba8 can also help connect you with suitable resources through our support team.

Limits that reduce your current limit (e.g. lowering a deposit limit from RM500 to RM200) take effect immediately. Limits that increase your current limit (e.g. raising a deposit limit) require a 24-hour waiting period. This is a protection designed to prevent impulsive decisions made in an emotionally unstable state.
