Gambling is entertainment — and hy999 is committed to keeping it that way. This page brings together every tool, resource and piece of guidance we offer to help Pakistani players gamble safely, set meaningful limits, and access support whenever they need it.
The hy999 platform is strictly intended for adults aged 18 years and above, or the higher minimum age required by the operator's licensing jurisdiction, whichever is greater. This is not a guideline — it is a hard limit that we enforce through identity verification.
When you register an account, you confirm that you meet the minimum eligible age. hy999 reserves the right to request age verification documentation at any point in the account lifecycle. If we have reasonable grounds to suspect an account belongs to an underage individual, it will be suspended immediately pending verification — and closed permanently if the age restriction is confirmed to have been breached.
Parents and guardians in Pakistan are encouraged to use device-level parental controls and content filters on shared devices to prevent underage access to online gambling platforms. If you are concerned about a minor accessing hy999, contact our support team immediately.
Pakistan has gambling restrictions under the Prevention of Gambling Act, 1977. This page does not constitute legal advice. Users are solely responsible for understanding and complying with applicable local legislation. hy999 does not claim government authorization or licensing from any Pakistani regulatory body.

24/7 Support Available
Every hy999 account comes with a full set of responsible gambling controls — accessible directly from your Account settings, 24 hours a day. No need to contact support to apply a limit; set it yourself, instantly.
Set a daily, weekly or monthly cap on how much you can deposit into your hy999 account. Once a deposit limit is in place, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased until the waiting period has elapsed. Decreasing a limit takes effect straight away.
A loss limit restricts the total amount you can lose within a set period — daily, weekly or monthly. When the threshold is reached, further betting is automatically paused for the remainder of that period. This tool is particularly effective for players who want to protect a specific recreational budget, for example PKR 5,000 or PKR 10,000 per week.
Set a maximum session duration — from 30 minutes to several hours — and hy999 will notify you when that time is up. Session time alerts help prevent the kind of unnoticed extended play that can turn a casual PSL T20 bet into a multi-hour unplanned session. Once a session limit expires, you will be logged out automatically.
Enable periodic pop-up reminders that display how long you have been playing and your net win or loss position in PKR for the session. Reality checks are a gentle nudge — they do not interrupt gameplay but they do give you the information you need to make a conscious decision about whether to continue.
If you need a short pause from gambling, the Take a Break feature allows you to suspend your account for a defined period — from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. During a cool-off period, you cannot log in or place any bets. Any pending withdrawals continue to be processed. You cannot cancel a cool-off period before it expires.
All responsible gambling tools are built directly into your hy999 account settings. No phone call, no waiting period for activation — limits apply the moment you save them.
Access hy999 on mobile or desktop and log in with your registered credentials.
Navigate to the Responsible Gambling section within your Account Settings panel.
Select the control you want to apply — deposit limit, loss limit, session timer, reality check, Take a Break or self-exclusion.
Enter the amount (in PKR) or time duration, confirm your selection and the limit takes effect immediately.
Self-exclusion requests must be confirmed via Live Chat or email. This step exists to ensure the process is completed correctly and that the exclusion is properly recorded.
Problem gambling can develop gradually and is not always easy to recognise in yourself. The signs below are not diagnostic — they are indicators that it may be worth pausing, reviewing your activity and considering whether to use hy999's responsible gambling tools or to seek external support.
Gambling problems do not only affect the player — they can affect family members and people close to you. If someone you know is showing these signs, the same resources apply and we encourage you to share this page with them.
If you recognise multiple signs below in your own behaviour, please contact the hy999 support team or seek external support. You do not need to be in crisis to ask for help — early intervention is always better.
Spending more money on gambling than you originally planned, or chasing losses with larger bets to try to recover what you've lost.
Gambling with money that was set aside for essential needs — rent, bills, food, transport — or borrowing money specifically to gamble.
Feeling irritable, anxious or unable to concentrate when not gambling, or finding that you need to bet larger amounts to feel the same level of excitement.
Spending significantly more time gambling than intended, or repeatedly failing to stop at a planned time — for example, continuing to bet long after a cricket match has ended.
Hiding gambling activity from family, friends or colleagues, or lying about how much you have won or lost.
Gambling as a primary way to cope with stress, anxiety, loneliness or other difficult emotions, rather than as entertainment.
Gambling has affected important relationships, your job, your studies or your responsibilities to family members, including children.
The questions below are not a clinical tool. They are a prompt for honest self-reflection. If you answer "yes" to several of them, we encourage you to use hy999's available controls or to contact our support team.
Have you ever gambled with money you couldn't afford to lose?
Have you ever tried to win back money you had lost at an earlier session?
Have you ever gambled for longer than you planned, or felt unable to stop when you wanted to?
Has gambling ever caused you stress, arguments with family or problems at work?
Have you ever borrowed money — from friends, family or through credit — specifically to gamble?
Do you find yourself thinking about gambling frequently, even when you are not playing?
Have you ever felt the need to hide how much time or money you spend on gambling from people close to you?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, consider applying a limit to your account today — or contact the hy999 support team via Live Chat to discuss the options available to you, including self-exclusion. This is not a judgement — it is a resource.
hy999's in-account tools are your first line of support. If you need additional help beyond what we offer, the following types of resources exist for gambling-related concerns.
Our 24/7 live chat team can help you activate any responsible gambling tool immediately — deposit limits, loss limits, session controls or self-exclusion. If you prefer Urdu, let the agent know at the start of the chat. You can also reach us at [email protected].
If gambling is affecting your mental health or wellbeing, general mental health counselling services may be able to help. In Pakistan, the Umang helpline and similar organisations offer mental health support. hy999 does not affiliate with or endorse specific services, but we encourage anyone in distress to seek professional support through appropriate local channels.
Gambling problems rarely affect only the individual. Talking to a trusted family member, religious leader, community elder or close friend about concerns can be an important first step. In many Pakistani communities, these networks remain the most accessible immediate form of support.
hy999 operates under a licensing framework that includes responsible gambling obligations. The licensing jurisdiction associated with this operator may have its own designated responsible gambling bodies and support organisations. Players are encouraged to check the operator's current licensing information and any associated responsible gambling programmes applicable in that jurisdiction.
Important: hy999 does not claim to be licensed, regulated or endorsed by the Government of Pakistan, PTA, the State Bank of Pakistan or any provincial authority. Users in Pakistan are solely responsible for understanding the legal status of online gambling under applicable Pakistani law, including the Prevention of Gambling Act, 1977. This page does not constitute legal advice.
Your responsible gambling tools are waiting in your Account Settings. Need help activating them? Our support team is available 24/7 — in English and Urdu.
⚠️ 18+ only — or the higher minimum required by the operator/license jurisdiction. Gambling can be addictive. Please gamble responsibly. Pakistan laws may restrict gambling activity.
