🛡️ Safe & Responsible Play

Responsible Gambling

Gambling on TWC18 is meant to be enjoyable — an exciting way to follow Liga Super Malaysia, back your EPL picks, and play live casino games. We want that experience to stay fun and within your means. This page outlines the tools, resources, and principles that guide how TWC18 supports safe play for all players across Malaysia.

21+
Strictly 18 Years or Below Not Permitted The TWC18 platform is for adults aged 21 and above only. Age verification is mandatory for all accounts.

Gambling Should Stay Entertainment — Never More

TWC18 genuinely believes that responsible gambling is not a box to check — it is part of building a platform worth trusting. Every player who joins us, whether from Kuala Lumpur, Penang, or Johor Bahru, deserves access to tools and information that keep their gambling experience healthy and in control.

Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of how experienced a player is or how small the stakes seem. The line between recreational betting and a developing problem is often gradual and subtle. That is precisely why we invest in preventive tools rather than waiting for issues to escalate.

Our responsible gambling framework covers four core pillars: age verification and access controls, account-level limit-setting tools, self-exclusion options, and signposting to professional support resources. Each is detailed in the sections below.

Our Promise to You We will never market to a player who has set deposit limits or requested self-exclusion. Your responsible gambling choices are always respected, always enforced, and never overridden for commercial reasons.

Tools to Keep You in Control

Every tool listed here is available directly through your TWC18 account settings or by contacting our support team via live chat. They are free to use and take effect immediately.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum amount you are willing to deposit over a defined period — daily, weekly, or monthly. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits will be accepted until the period resets. Reducing a limit takes effect immediately; increasing a limit is subject to a 7-day cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decisions.

Loss Limits

Define the maximum net loss you are comfortable with over a set timeframe. When your cumulative losses reach this threshold, your account will be restricted from further wagering activity until the limit period refreshes. This is one of the most effective tools for keeping sessions within budget.

Session Time Reminders

Set a session duration reminder that notifies you when you have been logged in and actively playing for a specified length of time — 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, or a custom interval. Staying aware of time spent is a simple but powerful habit for responsible gambling.

Wager Limits

Place a cap on the maximum stake amount per bet or spin. This is particularly useful for keeping live casino sessions and sports bets — including EPL and Liga Super Malaysia markets — within a comfortable range without relying on self-discipline alone.

Cooling-Off Period

Request a temporary break from gambling lasting 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or 90 days. During this period, you will be unable to log in or place any wagers. Cooling-off periods are ideal if you feel you need a short pause without committing to full self-exclusion.

Self-Exclusion

Request a longer-term or permanent exclusion from the TWC18 platform. Self-exclusion options range from 6 months to 5 years, or a permanent closure with no re-registration permitted. Your account will be closed immediately upon request. This tool is intended for players who recognise that gambling has become harmful.

How to Activate These Tools All responsible gambling tools can be accessed via your Account Settings under the "Responsible Gambling" section, or by contacting our live chat support team directly. Changes to limit reductions and cooling-off requests take effect within minutes. For self-exclusion, please contact our team at [email protected] — we will process your request immediately.

Recognising Problem Gambling

Problem gambling rarely announces itself loudly. More often, it creeps in through small changes in behaviour — a slightly longer session, a second deposit after a loss, hiding the activity from family. Awareness of these patterns is the first step toward addressing them.

The accordion to the right outlines the most common warning signs, grouped by category. If you recognise several of these in your own behaviour — or in a friend or family member — please consider reaching out to one of the support organisations listed further down this page.

If You Are in Crisis Now If gambling is causing immediate financial or personal harm, please contact Talian Kasih at 15999 or reach our support team via live chat for immediate guidance on account self-exclusion.

How to Set or Reduce Your Deposit Limits

Setting a deposit limit is one of the simplest and most effective steps you can take. It works automatically in the background, ensuring you never deposit more than you are comfortable with regardless of how you feel in the moment.

  • 1
    Open Account Settings Go to your profile and select "Account Settings" > "Responsible Gambling" > "Deposit Limits".
  • 2
    Choose Your Limit Period Select daily, weekly, or monthly. You can set limits for all three simultaneously. Minimum limit amount is RM50 per period.
  • 3
    Enter Your Limit Amount Type in the MYR amount you wish to set as your maximum deposit for that period. Be conservative — you can always request a reduction instantly if needed.
  • 4
    Save & Confirm Your new deposit limit takes effect immediately. Reductions are instant. Increases require a 7-day waiting period to prevent heat-of-the-moment decisions.

Am I Gambling Safely?

Reflect honestly on the statements below. The more "sometimes" or "often" answers you give, the more important it becomes to review your gambling habits and consider using one of the tools above.

I only gamble with money I can afford to lose. Healthy gambling means treating the money you stake as an entertainment cost — like cinema tickets — not as an investment you expect to recover.
I set a budget before each session and stick to it. Deciding your limit before you start — and stopping when you hit it — is one of the most reliable habits for keeping gambling recreational.
I sometimes chase losses to try to get even. Chasing losses is one of the clearest warning signs of a developing problem. If this happens occasionally, consider setting a loss limit on your TWC18 account.
I sometimes gamble for longer than I intend to. Session time overrun is common and does not always indicate a serious problem — but if it is frequent, activating a session time reminder can help you stay aware.
I have borrowed money or used essential funds to gamble. This is a significant indicator of problem gambling. We strongly encourage you to self-exclude, contact Talian Kasih at 15999, or reach our support team immediately for assistance.
My gambling has caused arguments or stress in my relationships. Relationship strain is a meaningful sign that gambling has moved beyond recreation. A cooling-off period combined with professional counselling can help you regain balance.
I gamble for entertainment, not as a primary source of income. Approaching gambling as one of many leisure activities — alongside watching EPL matches or dining out in Bangsar — is the hallmark of a healthy relationship with gaming.
