Dm3 Responsible Gaming — Play Healthy, Safe and in Control
Dm3 believes that the best entertainment is entertainment you're in control of. This page guides you on maintaining a healthy balance in your play, recognising warning signs, and using the self-control tools we provide.
What is dm3's commitment to responsible gaming?
At dm3, entertainment means fun that comes without pressure — free from any negative impact on your personal life, finances, or relationships. We don't just provide games; we take responsibility for ensuring our users play in a healthy and informed way.
The dm3 platform is built with a user wellbeing-first approach. This means we provide self-control tools, clear information about risks, and active support for those who may need help. Playing at dm3 should be a small part of your entertainment — not a source of stress or obsession.
We are equally committed to ensuring that only eligible individuals — those aged 18 and above, playing voluntarily with funds they can afford — use this platform.
How to identify risky gambling behaviour?
Many people don't realise when their gaming habits start shifting from entertainment to something more serious. Here are the warning signs to watch for in yourself or someone you care about:
- Borrowing money to play or to cover losses.
- Neglecting bills, debts, or basic necessities because of gambling.
- Trying to recover losses by continuing to play ("chasing losses").
- Feeling restless, irritable, or distressed when unable to play.
- Hiding gambling activity from family or friends.
- Neglecting work, family, or school responsibilities.
- Playing longer or more often than planned.
- Thinking about gambling almost constantly.
- Needing to wager increasingly larger amounts to feel the same level of excitement.
- Have tried to cut down or stop playing but haven't been able to.
- Using gambling as a way to escape from problems or negative feelings.
- Continuing to play even when you know it's having a negative impact on your life.
If you recognise two or more of the signs above in yourself, that's an important signal to take action. Start by using the self-control tools at dm3, or reach out for professional support.
How to set smart time and budget limits
The key to a healthy gaming experience is having a clear plan before you start. The following practical tips will help you stay in control:
Set a budget limit before you play
- Decide in advance how much MYR you're comfortable losing entirely as a cost of entertainment — not as an investment or a way to make money.
- Never exceed this limit, even if you feel certain you can win it back.
- Keep your gaming funds separate from money set aside for daily needs, bills, and savings.
Set a time limit for each gaming session
- Limit each gaming session to a set duration — for example, no more than one or two hours.
- Take regular breaks. Step away, move around, and do something else before coming back to play if you choose to.
- Don't play when you're tired, stressed, upset, or under the influence of any substance.
Keep these core principles in mind
- Casino games and Sports Betting are designed for entertainment, not as a financial strategy.
- Winnings are not guaranteed, and losses are always a possibility.
- Stop once you've reached your set limit — whether you're ahead or not.
Self-control tools available on the dm3 platform
Dm3 offers several self-control tools to help users manage their gaming experience more responsibly. These tools can be activated through your account settings or by contacting our support team:
Set a maximum daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit in MYR. Once the limit is reached, the system will block further deposits until the next period.
Take a temporary break from the platform for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this period, your account will be suspended and you will not be able to play.
If you need a longer break, you can request a self-exclusion for an extended period. Contact our support team at [email protected] for assistance.
To activate any of the self-control tools above or to find out more, contact the dm3 support team at [email protected]. We'll respond promptly and without any judgment — your well-being is our priority.
Protecting minors and maintaining life balance
Strictly prohibited for individuals under 18
Dm3 strictly prohibits the use of its platform by anyone under the age of 18. All users are required to verify their age upon registration. Should we discover any account registered by an underage individual, the account will be closed immediately with no refund issued.
Parents and guardians concerned that their children may be accessing online gambling sites are encouraged to use parental control software or contact their internet service provider to block access to inappropriate content.
Maintain a healthy life balance
Playing at dm3 should be a small part of a balanced life. Make sure you continue to meet your daily responsibilities, spend quality time with family and friends, look after your physical and mental health, and maintain hobbies and interests beyond gaming.
Don't wait — get support when you need it
Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. If you or someone you know is struggling with problem gambling, there are professional support resources that can help. Here are the steps you can take:
- Contact dm3 support: Our team at [email protected] can help you activate self-control tools or suspend your account temporarily or permanently — no pressure, no judgment.
- Talk to someone you trust: Sometimes the most important first step is having an honest conversation with a family member or friend about what you're going through.
- Get professional support: In Malaysia, counselling and mental health support services are available to help you address gambling addiction. Call Talian Kasih 15999 for information and referrals to appropriate support services.
- Don't gamble to escape: If you're using gaming as a way to cope with stress, anxiety, or life problems, this is a sign that you need deeper support than any gaming platform can provide.
