Four Kinds of Limits Worth Setting
Money limits
A maximum per month and per week, from income left after all commitments.
Time limits
How long each session lasts. Use a phone alarm so time does not slip away.
Frequency limits
How many days a week you play. Gambling-free days help keep things balanced.
Emotional limits
Never play when angry, sad, drunk or stressed — your decisions will suffer.
An Example Monthly Limit Plan
| Week | Limit | Rule |
|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | RM50 | Unused money does not carry over to the next week |
| Week 2 | RM50 | Stop immediately when the limit is reached |
| Week 3 | RM50 | At least three days without playing |
| Week 4 | RM50 | Compare actual spending with the limit |
If You Need a Break
Contact customer service
Ask for a deposit limit, a temporary break or self-exclusion through Impulse88 live chat.
Block access on your devices
Install a gambling-blocking app such as BetBlocker and remove shortcuts to gambling sites.
Tell someone you trust
Sharing with a friend or family member makes the commitment easier to keep.
Fill the time with something else
Exercise, hobbies or time with family help reduce the urge to play.
