Recognise the Signs of Risky Behaviour
Self-awareness is the first step in responsible gaming. It is important to recognise the early warning signs that gaming may be starting to have a negative impact on your life.
Watch for the following signs in yourself or someone you care about:
Financial Warning Signs
- Spending more than you can afford on gaming.
- Borrowing money or selling assets to keep playing.
- Hiding gaming expenses from family members.
- Neglecting bills or financial obligations in favour of playing.
Emotional & Social Signs
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when you're not playing.
- Using gaming as an escape from problems.
- Neglecting family, work, or social responsibilities.
- Continuing to play even after you've decided to stop.
If you recognise any of the signs above, we encourage you to take proactive steps by using the self-control tools available on the 145 platform or seeking professional help.
How to Set Time and Budget Limits
One of the most effective ways to stay in control is to set clear limits before you start playing. 145 encourages every player to adopt these healthy playing habits.
Daily & Monthly Budget Limit
Decide upfront how much MYR (RM) you are comfortable spending on entertainment each week or month. Treat this amount as a pure entertainment expense — no different from a movie ticket or a meal out. Never play with money set aside for daily necessities, bills, or savings.
Play Time Limit
Set a maximum duration for each play session. It is best to take a break every 30 to 60 minutes to avoid decision fatigue and ensure you are making sound choices. Use reminders or a timer on your phone to help.
Practical Guide to Healthy Play
- Never try to recover losses by raising your stakes — this is known as "chasing losses" and will only make things worse.
- Play when you're in a stable state of mind — not when you're stressed, sad, or overwhelmed.
- Restrict access to your account if you feel the urge to play beyond the limits you have set.
- Plan activities outside of gaming to maintain a healthy life balance.
Self-Control Tools on the 145 Platform
145 provides a range of self-control features accessible to all registered players. These tools are designed to help you maintain control over your gaming experience.
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits in MYR to automatically keep your spending in check.
Activate a cooling-off period of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days to give yourself space away from gaming activity.
If you need a longer break, contact the 145 support team to discuss temporary or permanent self-exclusion options from the platform.
To activate any of the above features or to find out more, please contact the 145 customer support team via email at [email protected] or through the in-platform live chat.
Minor Protection
The 145 platform is strictly for individuals aged 18 and above. We take this responsibility very seriously and enforce rigorous verification measures during account registration to ensure minors cannot access our services.
We encourage parents and guardians to use parental control software on shared devices to prevent unauthorised access to online gambling websites. If you suspect a child or teenager is using the 145 platform, please contact our support team immediately.
Any account found to be used by a minor will be closed immediately, and any remaining balance will be returned in accordance with established procedures.
Life Balance & Professional Support
Healthy gaming means gaming that does not interfere with other areas of your life — including family relationships, work, health, and finances. When that balance breaks down, it is time to seek help.
145 encourages anyone who feels that gaming is starting to have a negative impact to talk to someone they trust or seek professional help. You do not have to face this alone.
Steps you can take:
- Talk to a family member or close friend about your concerns.
- Reach out to a counsellor or social worker trained in addiction issues.
- Use the self-control features available on the 145 platform to temporarily restrict your access.
- Get in touch with the 145 support team for guidance on the options available.
Remember, asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. The 145 team is ready to listen and support you through this process in whatever way works best for you.
