w789 believes that online gaming should be entertaining, not harmful. We've built our platform around the principle that every Pakistani player deserves a safe, fair, and controlled gaming environment — with the tools, information, and support they need to stay in control at all times.
Gambling at w789 is designed purely as a form of entertainment — like watching a PSL match or playing a mobile game. It is not a way to earn money, solve financial difficulties, or cope with stress. Every feature on the w789 platform, from the way bonuses are presented to the responsible gaming tools built into every account, is designed with that principle front and centre.
The reality is that most people who gamble online do so responsibly — they set a budget for the month, enjoy the games, and move on. But for a small number of players, gambling can become a problem. w789's responsible gaming programme exists specifically to help those players recognise early warning signs and access help before things get serious.
w789 operates under an international gaming authority license that includes specific, mandatory responsible gaming obligations. These are not optional features we've added voluntarily — they are compliance requirements that w789 must meet and that are audited regularly by our regulator. This means the tools available to you as a w789 user are backed by a genuine regulatory framework, not just marketing language.
Under our gaming license, w789 is required to: provide responsible gaming tools to all users, enforce strict age verification procedures, maintain a self-exclusion register, train our support staff in problem gambling identification, and report certain behaviour patterns to our regulator where required.
w789 is built specifically for Pakistani players. We understand that conversations about gambling and problem gambling can carry a different cultural weight in Pakistan compared to other markets. We're not here to judge — we're here to make sure that anyone who does choose to use the platform has access to the tools and information they need to do so safely. If you or someone in your family has a concern, our 24/7 support team is available in both Urdu and English, no questions asked.
If you recognise two or more of these signs in yourself, we strongly encourage you to use w789's responsible gaming tools or contact our support team immediately. There is no shame in asking for help.
Every w789 account comes with six responsible gaming tools built in from day one. No need to request special access — they're all available from your account settings, right now.
Set a maximum amount you are allowed to deposit into your w789 account per day, week, or month. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits can be made until the next period. Limits take effect immediately and cannot be increased without a mandatory cooling-off period.
Define the maximum amount you're comfortable losing within a set period. When your net loss across all w789 games reaches this threshold, further wagering is paused for the remainder of the period. This tool is especially useful for players who find it difficult to stop when losing.
Set a maximum duration for each gaming session on w789. When your session timer expires, you'll receive a clear notification and the option to log out. This helps prevent the "just a few more minutes" pattern that leads to extended unplanned sessions, particularly important during late nights in Lahore or Karachi.
Enable periodic on-screen reminders that display how long you've been playing and how much you've won or lost in the current session. Reality checks are designed to interrupt automatic play patterns and give you a moment to make a conscious decision about whether to continue.
Request a temporary pause on your w789 account for a defined period between 24 hours and six months. During a cooling-off period, your account remains accessible for withdrawals only — no deposits or wagering are permitted. Cooling-off periods cannot be shortened once activated.
Request permanent or extended self-exclusion from the w789 platform. Self-exclusion removes all access to your account — including deposits, wagering, and promotional communications — within 24 hours of the request. This is our strongest protective tool and is intended for players who recognise a serious problem. Self-exclusion cannot be reversed before the chosen exclusion period ends.
Important: All responsible gaming tool changes that reduce access (e.g., lowering deposit limits, activating cooling-off) take effect immediately. Changes that increase access (e.g., raising deposit limits) are subject to a mandatory 7-day cooling-off period before they take effect, giving you time to reconsider. This is a requirement under our international gaming license and cannot be overridden.
Answer these questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to two or more of them, we encourage you to use w789's self-exclusion or cooling-off tools and consider speaking with a professional.
Have you ever felt the need to bet more and more money to get the same level of excitement from gambling?
Have you ever gone back to try and win back money you lost — what some people call "chasing losses"?
Have you lied to family members, friends, or your spouse about how much time or money you spend gambling?
Has gambling caused arguments with people close to you, or has someone expressed concern about your gambling habits?
Have you ever skipped work, missed an important commitment, or neglected a family responsibility because of gambling?
Have you borrowed money, taken a loan, or sold something you owned specifically to fund gambling?
Do you find it difficult to stop gambling once you've started, even when you tell yourself you will?
These are recognised indicators of problem gambling behaviour. You are not alone — problem gambling affects people from all walks of life. Please use w789's self-exclusion tool immediately, or contact our 24/7 support team through the platform's live chat. Your welfare is more important to us than your gameplay.
Self-exclusion is available to every w789 user at any time. The process is straightforward and takes less than five minutes. Once activated, your exclusion is processed within 24 hours and cannot be reversed before the chosen period ends — this is by design, to protect you during a vulnerable moment.
Self-exclusion at w789 is confidential. No reasons are required. Your request is handled with full discretion by our responsible gaming team, and no marketing communications will be sent to you during the exclusion period.
Access the w789 platform and log in to your account. If you are unable to log in, or prefer to request self-exclusion without logging in, contact our 24/7 live chat support team who will process the request on your behalf after identity verification.
Go to your account settings by clicking your username in the top right corner of the platform. Select the "Responsible Gaming" section from the account menu.
Click on "Self-Exclusion" and select your desired exclusion period: 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, or permanent exclusion. Permanent exclusion means your w789 account will be closed indefinitely with no possibility of reinstatement.
Confirm the self-exclusion request. You will receive a confirmation message on screen. Your self-exclusion will be fully active within 24 hours. Any remaining PKR balance in your account will be returned to you via your last used payment method.
Self-exclusion from w789 is an important first step, but professional support can make a significant difference. We encourage all self-excluded players to also speak with a qualified professional or counsellor who can provide ongoing guidance and coping strategies.
The 21+ age restriction at w789 is absolute. Here's how we enforce it — and how parents can help.
All w789 users must verify their identity via CNIC or passport. Our system checks date of birth against national ID data to confirm the 21+ requirement before any real-money play is permitted.
Where required, w789 uses third-party identity verification services to independently confirm user ages. Accounts that cannot be verified are suspended pending completion of the KYC process.
Parents and guardians should install parental control software on family devices to prevent minors from accessing gambling platforms including w789. Device-level controls are the most effective protection available.
Any account found to belong to a minor is immediately closed, all winnings forfeited, and deposits returned. There are no exceptions. If you suspect a minor has accessed w789, contact our support team immediately.
You've read our responsible gaming commitments. When you're ready to play — within your limits, with your tools set up, and with full confidence — w789 is ready for you. Remember: entertainment first, always.
