Gambling is entertainment. When it stops feeling that way, it is time to use the tools available to you. q678 is committed to giving every player the information, controls and support they need to make safe, informed decisions about their play — at every stage.

18+ Only Self-Exclusion Available Free Support Resources

⚠️ Need help right now?  If gambling is causing you or someone close to you serious harm — financial, mental or relationship — please reach out immediately. The q678 support team is available 24/7 via live chat. You can also request an immediate self-exclusion at any time, directly from your Account settings. International responsible gambling support organisations, including Gamblers Anonymous and GamCare, operate free helplines and online chat services accessible globally.

Built-In Safety Tools

Your Account Controls


Every q678 account comes with a full set of responsible gambling tools, accessible at any time from within your Account settings — no need to contact support to activate them.

💰
Deposit Limits

Set a maximum amount you can deposit per day, per week, or per month. Limits take effect immediately when reduced, and are subject to a cooling-off period when increased — protecting you from impulsive decisions in the moment.

📉
Loss Limits

Cap the total amount you can lose within a defined period — daily, weekly or monthly. Once you reach your loss limit, no further wagers can be placed until the limit period resets or you apply a new lower limit.

⏱️
Session Time Limits

Set a maximum session duration so the Platform notifies you — and optionally logs you out — when your playing time reaches the limit you have chosen. Useful for keeping track of time during long cricket matches or extended casino sessions.

🧊
Cooling-Off Period

Take a short break without fully closing your account. Apply a cooling-off period of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a cooling-off period your account is suspended — you cannot log in, deposit or wager, but the account remains intact.

🔐
Self-Exclusion

Request a longer-term or permanent self-exclusion directly from Account settings. Self-exclusion periods range from 6 months to permanent closure. Once applied, self-exclusion cannot be reversed before the minimum period has elapsed.

📊
Reality Check & Activity History

View your full transaction and betting history at any time. Reality check reminders can be set to appear at intervals during your session, showing total time played and net win/loss position for the session.

18+

Adults Only — No Exceptions

q678 is strictly for individuals aged 18 years or older, or the higher minimum age required by the Operator's licence jurisdiction, whichever is greater. This is a non-negotiable requirement and applies to all users, regardless of jurisdiction.

Age verification is conducted as part of the KYC process. The Operator may request documentary proof of age at any point, including at registration, at the point of a first withdrawal, or at any time during the Account lifecycle where age eligibility is in question.

Any account where the holder is found to be under the applicable minimum age will be closed immediately, all activity voided, and the matter reported to relevant authorities where required. Winnings associated with underage accounts are not paid out.

Protecting Minors

Keeping Young People Safe

If you share a device or network with family members, including children or teenagers, q678 strongly recommends the following:

Use a Strong Password Never share your q678 login credentials with anyone. Use a unique password not used for any other service.

Log Out After Every Session Always log out of your q678 account when you finish playing, especially on shared or family devices.

Enable Device Parental Controls Use your device or browser's parental control features to restrict access to gambling websites for under-18s in your household.

Do Not Save Passwords Avoid saving your q678 password in your browser or device keychain on any device accessible to minors.

Self-Exclusion

How to Exclude Yourself from q678

Self-exclusion is the strongest account-level tool available on the Platform. It is appropriate when you feel that you have lost control of your gambling, are chasing losses, or are gambling with money you cannot afford to lose. Applying self-exclusion does not carry any stigma — it is a responsible decision and the Platform fully supports it.

01
Log in to Your Account

Access your q678 account. You do not need to contact support first — the self-exclusion tool is directly available in your Account settings panel.

02
Navigate to Responsible Gambling Settings

Within Account settings, locate the Responsible Gambling section. All limit tools, cooling-off and self-exclusion options are grouped here.

03
Select Self-Exclusion & Choose a Period

Choose a period: 6 months, 1 year, 3 years or permanent exclusion. Permanent exclusion results in full Account closure with no reversal path.

04
Confirm Your Decision

Confirm the self-exclusion request. It takes effect immediately. You will receive a confirmation via your registered email address.

05
Contact Support if You Need Assistance

If you are unable to access Account settings, contact the 24/7 support team via live chat. An agent will apply the self-exclusion on your behalf immediately.

Important: Once a self-exclusion is active, q678 will take reasonable technical steps to prevent you from opening a new Account during the exclusion period. It is your responsibility not to attempt to register a new Account while excluded. Doing so is a breach of the Terms & Conditions.

Need to Exclude Right Now?

If you feel the urge to stop but cannot access your Account settings, the fastest route is the 24/7 live chat on the Platform. Tell the support agent you want to self-exclude and your chosen period — it will be applied immediately.

Alternatively, send a written request to the support email address ([email protected]) with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request" and your registered email address. Written requests are processed within 24 hours of receipt.

Setting Deposit & Loss Limits

How Limits Work in Practice

Deposit and loss limits are designed to put a firm ceiling on how much you spend, regardless of any in-session impulse to increase your stakes. Here is how the system works on q678:

  • Reducing a limit — takes effect immediately, with no waiting period. You can lower your deposit cap from PKR 50,000 to PKR 10,000 per week and it applies to your very next deposit.
  • Increasing a limit — subject to a mandatory cooling-off period before the higher limit activates. This prevents impulsive increases after a losing session.
  • Loss limit reached — once your configured loss limit is hit, no further wagers are accepted until the limit period (day/week/month) resets. You will receive an in-platform notification when you are approaching your limit.
  • Review & adjust — you can review all active limits at any time from the Responsible Gambling section of Account settings.

Know the Difference

Healthy Play vs. Harmful Patterns


Gambling can be an enjoyable leisure activity. The distinction between recreational play and problem gambling often comes down to whether gambling is in control of you — or the other way around.

✅ Healthy Gambling
🟢You set a budget before you start and stick to it
🟢You treat losses as the cost of entertainment, not a debt to recover
🟢Gambling is one of several leisure activities in your life
🟢You can stop when you choose — and feel fine about stopping
🟢Family, work and financial obligations come before gambling
🟢You only ever gamble with disposable income you can afford to lose
⚠️ Warning Signs
🔴You gamble to recover previous losses ("chasing")
🔴You borrow money or sell belongings to fund gambling
🔴Gambling is taking time away from work, family or sleep
🔴You feel anxious, irritable or depressed when not gambling
🔴You hide your gambling activity from people close to you
🔴You repeatedly try to stop or cut back and cannot
If any warning signs resonate with your current experience, please use the self-exclusion or limit tools in your Account settings — or speak to a support agent via live chat right now.

Self-Assessment

Honest Questions Worth Asking Yourself


This is not a formal diagnostic tool — it is a set of honest questions to prompt reflection. If you answer "yes" to several of these, it may be worth speaking to a responsible gambling support organisation.

Q01  —  Have you ever spent more time or money gambling than you originally intended to?
Q02  —  Have you gambled to escape stress, anxiety, boredom or personal problems rather than purely for entertainment?
Q03  —  After losing money gambling, have you returned the next day to try to win it back?
Q04  —  Have you ever lied to family members or colleagues about how much time or money you spend gambling?
Q05  —  Have you ever gambled with money you needed for rent, bills, food, or other essential expenses?
Q06  —  Have family members, friends, or colleagues ever expressed concern about your gambling behaviour?
Q07  —  Have you tried to cut back or stop gambling and found yourself unable to do so?
Q08  —  Has gambling ever caused you significant financial difficulty, or damaged an important relationship or job?
What to do next: If you answered yes to two or more of these questions, we encourage you to use the responsible gambling tools in your q678 Account settings — or to contact a free, confidential support service such as Gamblers Anonymous or GamCare, both of which offer global support in multiple languages including resources accessible from Pakistan.

Pakistan Context

What Pakistani Players Should Know


q678 is an internationally operated platform serving players globally, including players accessing the site from Pakistan — Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar and other cities. The platform is not licensed, regulated or endorsed by the Government of Pakistan, PTA, State Bank of Pakistan, or any Pakistani provincial authority.

Pakistan's Prevention of Gambling Act, 1977 and associated provincial legislation impose restrictions on gambling activity. q678 does not provide legal advice. Each user is solely responsible for satisfying themselves as to the lawfulness of accessing the Platform from their location before registering or wagering.

From a responsible gambling perspective, Pakistani users should also be aware that many familiar local payment services — including mobile wallet platforms, bank transfer services and the Raast instant payment system — are subject to their own transaction policies that may affect how gambling deposits and withdrawals are processed. Payment-provider names referenced on this site are contextual only and do not imply endorsement of gambling by any payment provider.

If you are concerned about your gambling behaviour and are based in Pakistan, the international support organisations listed above — including Gamblers Anonymous — operate globally accessible services.
