Gambling should be an enjoyable form of entertainment — nothing more. funpkr is committed to providing every user with the information, tools and support needed to keep gaming in healthy perspective. This page covers our 18+ policy, the player protection tools available, warning signs of problem gambling, and how to get help if you need it.
Every element of funpkr's responsible gambling framework is built around these core principles — from account registration to ongoing play.
funpkr enforces a minimum age of 18 years — or the higher minimum required by the operator's license jurisdiction — for all account holders. Identity verification is mandatory before deposits and withdrawals are permitted.
Users can set daily, weekly or monthly deposit and loss limits directly through their account settings. Reductions apply immediately. Increases are subject to a mandatory cooling-off period before taking effect.
Set session time reminders that alert you when you've been logged in for a defined period. It's easy to lose track of time during live cricket or PSL match betting — time reminders help keep sessions intentional.
If you need a short break, a cool-off period temporarily suspends your account. During this time you cannot log in, deposit or place bets. Cool-off periods range from 24 hours to several weeks depending on your needs.
Users who need a longer break can apply for self-exclusion — a formal account closure for a defined extended period. Self-exclusion requests are processed promptly. Attempting to open new accounts during self-exclusion is prohibited.
funpkr signposts users to qualified responsible gambling support organisations. Our support team handles responsible gambling enquiries in English and Urdu during Pakistan Standard Time hours.
funpkr is an adults-only platform. The minimum age to register and use any service on funpkr is 18 years of age, or the higher minimum age required by the operator's license jurisdiction — whichever is greater.
This isn't just a checkbox. We enforce age verification as part of our mandatory KYC process — every user must submit valid identity documentation before deposits and withdrawals are processed. Date of birth is verified against supporting documents, not just self-declared.
If an account is found to belong to a minor, it will be closed immediately, all funds frozen pending review, and any winnings forfeited. This is non-negotiable.
If you share your device with younger family members, we strongly recommend taking the following precautions:
Never store your funpkr login credentials in a shared browser or autofill service accessible to others in your household.
Always log out of your funpkr account when you finish a session, especially on shared mobile devices common in Pakistani households.
Enable screen lock with PIN or biometric authentication on your mobile device to prevent unauthorised access to your account.
Browser-level and network-level parental controls can restrict access to gambling content on shared home networks or devices used by children.
All tools listed here are accessible through your account settings or by contacting support. There is no cost to activate any player protection measure.
Set a maximum amount you can deposit into your account over a defined period — daily, weekly or monthly. For example, you might set a limit of PKR 5,000 per week. Once the limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets.
How to activate: Navigate to Account Settings → Responsible Gambling → Deposit Limits. Changes that reduce your limit apply instantly. Limit increases require a mandatory review period before taking effect.
Available NowCap the maximum amount you are willing to lose in a given period. If your losses reach the set threshold — for example, PKR 10,000 in a week — your account is automatically restricted from further play until the period resets.
How to activate: Navigate to Account Settings → Responsible Gambling → Loss Limits. As with deposit limits, reductions are immediate while increases are subject to a cooling-off review.
Available NowChoose an interval — for example, every 30 minutes or every hour — and the platform will display a pop-up notification reminding you how long you have been active. You can choose to continue or end your session at that point.
Why it matters: Immersive cricket live betting or T20 match wagering can make time pass quickly. Session reminders help you stay in control of how long you engage.
Available NowBeyond deposit and loss caps, you can also set a limit on the maximum amount per individual bet or wager. This is particularly useful for sports bettors who want to control impulse wagering during high-intensity live events like PSL finals or ICC knockout matches.
How to activate: Available in the Responsible Gambling section of your Account Settings. Contact support if you need assistance configuring these limits.
Available NowA cool-off period is a temporary, voluntary account suspension. During a cool-off, you cannot log in, deposit or place bets. You can choose a period ranging from 24 hours to several weeks. Your account and funds are preserved for when the period ends.
How to activate: Contact support with your account details and the duration you require. Cool-off requests are processed promptly — typically within one working hour.
Contact SupportSelf-exclusion is a formal, extended account closure. It is designed for users who feel they need a meaningful break from gambling for a significant period. Self-exclusion periods range from six months to permanent closure depending on your circumstances.
How to activate: Contact support and state that you wish to self-exclude. Your request will be actioned promptly. During self-exclusion, you must not attempt to open new accounts — doing so breaches our Terms & Conditions.
Contact SupportSelf-exclusion is one of the most important tools available to a player who feels that gambling has become a problem. It is not a punishment — it is a decision you make for yourself, and funpkr fully supports it. Here is exactly how the process works on funpkr:
Problem gambling can develop gradually and is not always easy to recognise from the inside. The following patterns are widely recognised indicators that gambling may have moved from entertainment into something more harmful. If several of these apply to you or someone you care about, please take them seriously.
Placing more bets specifically to recover money already lost, often with increasing stakes to "get back to even".
Taking loans, borrowing from family or selling personal items to have money to gamble with — especially in secret.
Hiding bet amounts, account activity or losses from family members — particularly common when the overall household budget is affected.
Constantly thinking about gambling, upcoming bets, how to find more funds or reliving previous wins and losses throughout the day.
Missing work, family commitments or important personal responsibilities because of time or energy spent on gambling.
Using gambling to cope with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, financial pressure or negative emotions rather than for entertainment.
Wanting to cut back or stop gambling but finding it difficult or impossible to do so — repeatedly setting and then breaking personal limits.
Needing to bet increasing amounts — higher PKR stakes, more markets, longer sessions — to feel the same level of excitement as before.
Answer these questions honestly — to yourself, not to us. If you answer "yes" to three or more of the following, we encourage you to talk to someone or use the player protection tools available on your account.
Have you ever gambled more money than you initially planned to in a single session?
Have you felt restless, irritable or anxious when trying to cut back on gambling?
Have you ever lied to a family member, friend or colleague about how much time or money you spend on gambling?
Have you ever used money intended for household expenses — rent, groceries, school fees, utility bills — to fund gambling instead?
After a significant loss, have you felt a strong urge to return immediately to try to win back what you lost?
Has gambling caused significant stress, conflict, or concern for someone close to you?
Have you ever taken time off work, missed family obligations or social commitments because of gambling activity?
Do you find yourself thinking about gambling — planning your next session, calculating your next bet — at times when you're doing something entirely unrelated?

The core principle behind responsible gambling is simple: gambling is a form of entertainment, in the same category as buying a PSL match ticket or taking the family to the cinema. When you pay for a PSL Final ticket, you don't expect to profit from the experience financially — you pay for the entertainment value of the event itself. Gambling works best when approached with the same mindset.
Decide your budget before you start. Before logging in to place a bet on an ICC match or to play a few rounds of live casino, decide in advance exactly how much you are comfortable spending. That amount — like a cinema ticket — should be money you can afford to lose entirely without it affecting your household budget, your family's welfare or your financial obligations.
Accept the reality of the odds. All casino games and sports betting markets are designed with a house edge. Over a long enough time period, the mathematical expectation for the player is negative. This doesn't mean you can't enjoy a winning session — many people do — but it does mean gambling should never be relied upon as a source of income or a method of recovering from financial difficulty.
Time is also a resource. Responsible gambling isn't only about money. Spending excessive time on gambling — at the expense of work, family, sleep or personal wellbeing — is also a harm worth recognising. Use session reminders and take breaks, especially during long live-betting events.
If gambling stops being fun, stop. The moment gambling begins to feel like an obligation, an escape, or a stressful necessity rather than an enjoyable recreation, it has moved out of the entertainment category. That is the right moment to use the tools on this page.
