What is it?

Responsible Gaming Starts with Awareness

Responsible gaming means ensuring that betting remains a healthy form of entertainment — not a means of generating income, escaping problems, or meeting deeper emotional needs. At hero138, we believe that safe betting starts with yourself.

Many Malaysians enjoy betting on the Malaysia Super League and EPL, playing slots, or joining progressive jackpots as a form of entertainment with friends. When done responsibly, it can be a fun and enjoyable activity. However, it is always important to stay aware of your personal limits.

Problems begin when someone starts betting beyond their financial means, using money meant for daily necessities, or when gambling starts affecting personal relationships and mental health. hero138 provides a range of tools and resources to help you maintain a healthy balance.

Remember: at hero138, you play to have fun. Every ringgit you deposit via Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, DuitNow, or any other payment method should be money you can afford to lose without affecting your daily life.

We provide a range of tools you can use at any time, completely free of charge. The control is yours.

⏱️
Session Time Limits

Set a maximum duration for each gaming session. Once the time is up, hero138 will display a notification and can automatically log you out as a reminder to take a break.

📉
Loss Limits

Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose in a day, week, or month. This helps ensure your betting never exceeds your financial means under any circumstances.

Know the Signs

10 Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling often develops gradually. Many people don't realise they've entered dangerous territory until things get serious. Watch for these early signs:

1
Betting with money you cannot afford to lose
Using rent money, utility bills, grocery funds, or emergency savings to make betting deposits is a serious warning sign.
2
Chasing losses
Continuously depositing in the hope of winning back money already lost is a dangerous pattern that often leads to even greater losses.
3
Lying about gambling activity
Hiding the amount you spend on betting from your partner, family, or friends is a sign that a problem already exists.
4
Gambling affecting work or studies
Frequently arriving late to work, losing focus on the job, or skipping class because of betting is a concerning sign.
5
Borrowing money to bet
Borrowing money from family, friends, or financial institutions solely to use as gambling funds is a clear indicator of a serious problem.
6
Unable to stop despite trying
Repeatedly trying to cut back or stop betting but failing to do so is a classic sign of addiction that warrants professional help.
7
Using betting as an emotional escape
Gambling to escape feelings of stress, anxiety, guilt, or loneliness — using betting as a coping mechanism is a dangerous warning sign.
8
Strained personal relationships
Frequent arguments with a partner, parents, or friends over financial issues or time spent betting is a serious warning sign.
9
Thinking about gambling constantly
Constantly thinking about the next match, the odds, or how to get money for a deposit — even while doing something else.
10
Feeling restless or on edge when unable to bet
Feeling noticeably anxious, irritable, depressed, or restless when unable to access the betting platform is a serious sign of dependency.
🆘
If you identify two or more of the above signs in yourself, we urge you to contact the hero138 support team immediately or make use of the self-control tools provided. Seeking help early is the smartest step you can take.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Responsible Gaming

Yes, you can. Your self-imposed deposit limit can be set to any amount you choose, even if it falls below the platform's standard deposit limit. This gives you full flexibility to manage your betting spending according to your own financial means.

Self-exclusion requests are processed within a maximum of 24 hours. Once activated, you will no longer be able to log in to your hero138 account. All marketing communications will also be stopped immediately. Any remaining account balance will be processed for withdrawal once all applicable conditions are met.

Reducing limits (making them stricter) takes effect immediately. However, increasing limits (making them more lenient) requires a 7-day waiting period before the change kicks in. This is a deliberate safeguard to prevent impulsive decisions made during emotionally charged gaming sessions.

Accounts under self-exclusion will not be reopened before the set period expires, without exception. After the period ends, you will need to actively contact the support team and go through a brief review process before your account can be reactivated. For permanent self-exclusion, the account will never be reopened.

Self-exclusion can only be carried out by the account holder themselves, as it involves identity verification. However, if you are concerned about a family member, we encourage you to contact the hero138 support team for a confidential discussion on what steps can be taken. We will guide you as best we can through this sensitive situation.
