Responsible Gaming
at clupk

At clupk, we believe that gaming should be a source of entertainment — not stress, debt, or harm. Our responsible gaming programme is built around giving Pakistani players the tools, information, and support they need to stay in control of their play at all times. Whether you are betting on PSL cricket, spinning slots, or playing Callbreak, your wellbeing always comes first.

Strictly 21 and Above Only

The clupk Platform is intended exclusively for adults aged 21 years and older. Age verification is mandatory for all players and is enforced at the point of registration through our KYC process. Any account found to belong to a person under 21 will be immediately suspended and all funds returned or forfeited as required by our gaming licence obligations.


The clupk Responsible Gaming Framework

clupk's responsible gaming framework is grounded in six core principles. Every tool, policy, and support channel we offer traces back to these commitments — because a safe player is a happy player.

Age Verification (21+)

Every clupk account requires full KYC identity verification before a single rupee can be deposited. We check your CNIC or passport to confirm you are 21 or older — no exceptions, no shortcuts.

Player-Set Deposit Limits

Take control of your spending by setting daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from your clupk account dashboard. Limits take effect immediately and can only be increased after a 7-day cooling-off period.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum session duration so clupk automatically alerts you — and optionally logs you out — when your chosen time is up. Healthy time boundaries are one of the most effective responsible gaming habits.

Cool-Off Periods

Need a short break? Activate a cool-off period of 24 hours, 48 hours, or up to 30 days. During a cool-off, your account is paused for gaming and deposits, though you may still withdraw any existing balance.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel your gaming is becoming a problem, our self-exclusion tool allows you to close your clupk account for a minimum of 6 months or permanently. Self-exclusion requests are actioned within 24 hours and cannot be reversed during the chosen period.

24/7 Welfare Support

Our support team is available around the clock in both Urdu and English to assist with responsible gaming queries, account restrictions, self-exclusion requests, and referrals to professional counselling services across Pakistan.


Responsible Gaming Tools on clupk

clupk puts powerful, easy-to-use tools directly inside your account so you never have to contact support just to set a limit. Here is a quick overview of each tool, what it does, and how quickly it takes effect.

All protective tools — deposit limits, session timers, cool-off periods, and self-exclusion — are available from the Responsible Gaming section of your clupk account settings at any time.
Increases to deposit limits or removal of cool-off periods are subject to a mandatory 7-day waiting period. Decreases and self-exclusion requests are always immediate.
1 Deposit Limit

Choose a maximum deposit amount per day, week, or month in PKR. Once reached, further deposits are blocked until the period resets. Set it once — clupk enforces it automatically.

2 Loss Limit

Cap the total amount you are comfortable losing in a given period. When your net losses hit your chosen threshold, clupk prevents further wagers until the limit period refreshes.

3 Session Time Limit

Set a hard limit on how long a single gaming session can last — anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. A pop-up alert appears at the halfway mark so you can plan ahead.

4 Reality Check

Enable periodic reminders that show you how long you have been playing and your net result for the session. A gentle nudge to reassess whether gaming is still fun for you right now.

5 Cool-Off Period

Take a planned break of 1 to 30 days. Your account remains open for withdrawals but all gaming and deposits are paused. The cool-off activates instantly and cannot be cancelled early.

6 Self-Exclusion

A permanent or long-term closure of your clupk account. Choose 6 months, 1 year, 5 years, or permanent exclusion. Requests are processed within 24 hours and are irreversible during the chosen term.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Gambling is meant to be entertaining. When it stops being fun and starts feeling like a necessity, it may be time to take a step back. Here are some common warning signs that clupk encourages all players to be honest with themselves about. If several of these apply to you, we strongly encourage you to use our self-exclusion tool or reach out to our support team.

Gambling with money set aside for essential expenses like rent, groceries, or school fees for your children.
Chasing losses — increasing wager amounts after a losing session in an attempt to win back what you have lost.
Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when not gambling, or when trying to reduce your play.
Lying to family members or close friends in Karachi, Lahore, or elsewhere about how much time or money you spend on gaming.
Borrowing money — from friends, family, or through loans — specifically to fund gambling activity.
Spending increasing amounts of time gaming at the expense of work, studies, family time, or personal responsibilities.
Repeated unsuccessful attempts to cut back on or stop gambling, despite wanting to do so.

Quick Self-Check

Answer these questions honestly. If you answer "Yes" to two or more, we recommend activating a cool-off period and speaking with our support team or a professional counsellor.

1. Do you spend more money on gambling than you originally planned?

Often Sometimes Rarely Never

2. Have you ever gambled to escape from personal problems or feelings of sadness?

Often Sometimes Rarely Never

3. Has someone close to you expressed concern about your gambling habits?

Yes No

4. Have you tried to cut back on gambling but found it difficult to do so?

Often Sometimes Rarely Never

5. Do you find yourself thinking about gambling when you are doing other things?

Often Sometimes Rarely Never
This self-check is informational only. For a full assessment, please contact our support team or a qualified counsellor.

How clupk Protects Its Players

Responsible gaming is not an afterthought at clupk — it is woven into how the Platform is built and operated. From the moment you register to every wager you place, our systems are designed to identify and respond to early signs of harmful play. Here is what we do behind the scenes to keep you safe.

clupk operates under an international gaming licence that mandates responsible gaming standards, regular audits of player protection tools, and obligations to intervene when player welfare is at risk.
Mandatory KYC Age Verification at Registration

Before any account is activated, clupk requires submission of a valid Pakistani CNIC or passport to confirm the applicant is 21 years or older. No deposits or gameplay are permitted until verification is complete and approved.

Ongoing Transaction Monitoring

Our systems monitor deposit frequency, wager sizes, and loss patterns continuously. Accounts that display rapid escalation in spending are automatically flagged for a welfare review by our responsible gaming team.

Proactive Player Outreach

If clupk's monitoring identifies patterns consistent with problem gambling behaviour, our support team will proactively contact the player via email or live chat in Urdu or English to offer assistance and information about available tools.

Marketing Opt-Out for At-Risk Players

Players who activate a cool-off period or self-exclusion are immediately removed from all promotional communications. At-risk players identified by our monitoring system are also excluded from bonus and re-engagement campaigns.

Staff Responsible Gaming Training

Every member of the clupk customer support team based in Pakistan and internationally receives mandatory responsible gaming training, including how to identify signs of distress, how to communicate sensitively, and how to escalate welfare concerns.

Regular Responsible Gaming Audits

clupk's responsible gaming programme is reviewed and audited at regular intervals as part of our international gaming licence obligations. Audit findings are used to continuously improve our player protection tools and support services.
