Our Responsible Gaming Commitment

igm247 takes problem gambling seriously. This page outlines the tools, policies, and support resources available to all members. We encourage every player to read this page carefully and to make use of the tools provided. Gambling should always be a choice made freely and within your personal means.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you deposit into your igm247 account. Limits take effect immediately when reduced and can only be increased after a 7-day cooling-off period.

Loss Limits

Define the maximum amount you are comfortable losing over a set period. Once your loss limit is reached, betting will be paused until the limit period resets or you contact support to review your settings.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum duration for each gaming session. When the limit is reached, you will receive an automatic reminder and the option to end your session or extend it with full awareness of the time elapsed.

Reality Check Reminders

Enable periodic pop-up reminders that display your current session duration and net win/loss balance. These prompts are designed to keep you informed and in control at all times during active play.

Time-Out (Cool-Down)

Take a voluntary break from the platform for a period of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out, your account remains accessible for withdrawals but all betting and deposit functionality is suspended.

Self-Exclusion

Request a permanent or long-term self-exclusion of 6 months, 1 year, or 5 years. During self-exclusion, your account is fully suspended. igm247 will also suppress any marketing communications to your registered contact details.

Our Responsible Gaming Philosophy

At igm247, responsible gaming is not a compliance checkbox — it is a core principle embedded in everything we do. We are proud to serve a broad community of Indonesian players who enjoy sports betting, live casino, togel (Indonesia's traditional numbers lottery), and a wide variety of online games. Our goal is to ensure that every member can engage with our platform in a way that is entertaining, informed, and sustainable.

We recognize that for a small percentage of players, gambling can shift from an enjoyable pastime to a problematic behavior that affects their finances, relationships, and mental health. igm247 takes this risk seriously and has invested significantly in tools, staff training, and player monitoring systems that help us identify and support members who may be at risk.

Our responsible gaming framework is built on four pillars: Prevention (age verification, education, and awareness), Player Empowerment (self-management tools accessible directly from your account), Early Intervention (proactive monitoring and outreach), and Support (24/7 access to trained customer support agents who can assist with any responsible gaming concern).

Gambling should never be used as a means to earn income, recover debts, or escape personal problems. If you find yourself gambling for these reasons, we strongly encourage you to use our self-exclusion tools and seek professional support.

Age Restriction — 21+ Only

igm247 enforces a strict minimum age of 21 years for all registered members. This policy applies across all products on our platform, including sports betting (bandar bola, Indonesia's term for football bookmaker services), live casino, togel, and all other gaming categories.

Age verification is conducted during the registration process and reinforced through our Know Your Customer (KYC) verification, which requires submission of a government-issued Indonesian identity document (KTP, Passport, or Driver's License). Any account found to belong to an individual under the age of 21 will be immediately suspended, all winnings forfeited, and all deposits refunded to the payment method of record.

Protecting Minors

igm247 encourages all parents and guardians to use parental control software to restrict access to gambling websites on devices used by individuals under 21. If you suspect that a minor has registered on igm247, please contact our support team immediately so that we can investigate and take appropriate action.

  • All new accounts undergo mandatory date-of-birth registration
  • KYC verification confirms identity and legal age before withdrawals are processed
  • Accounts flagged as potentially underage are suspended pending verification
  • Marketing communications are never directed at individuals under 21
  • igm247 does not advertise on media platforms primarily consumed by minors

Recognizing Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually and may not be immediately obvious to the individual experiencing it. igm247 encourages all members to periodically reflect on their gambling habits and to be honest with themselves about the role gambling plays in their life.

Common warning signs of problem gambling include:

  • Spending more money on gambling than you originally intended
  • Chasing losses — continuing to bet in order to recover money already lost
  • Gambling with money that is needed for essential expenses (rent, food, bills)
  • Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling activity
  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
  • Lying to family members or friends about the extent of your gambling
  • Neglecting work, study, or family responsibilities due to gambling
  • Using gambling as a way to escape stress, depression, or personal problems
  • Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
  • Continuing to gamble despite negative consequences in your personal or professional life
If you recognize three or more of the signs above in your own behavior, we strongly encourage you to take a break, use our self-exclusion tool, and speak to a trusted professional. igm247's support team can help you activate protective tools on your account immediately.

Quick Self-Assessment

Answer honestly. If you respond "Yes" to two or more questions, consider contacting our support team or activating a self-exclusion.

1

Have you ever gambled with money you could not afford to lose — for example, money set aside for rent, food, or bills?

2

Have you ever tried to win back money you lost by placing more bets immediately afterward?

3

Have you ever felt that you needed to bet with larger amounts of money to get the same feeling of excitement?

4

Have you ever hidden or lied about your gambling activity to friends, family members, or your partner?

5

Have you ever felt that gambling was causing significant stress in your life, but found it difficult to stop?

6

Have you ever missed work, neglected family obligations, or cancelled social plans in order to gamble?

This self-assessment is not a clinical diagnostic tool. It is intended to prompt reflection. If you are concerned about your gambling behavior, please contact igm247 support or a professional counseling service.

How to Activate Responsible Gaming Tools

igm247 has designed its responsible gaming tools to be straightforward to access and immediate to implement. You do not need to wait or seek approval to activate any of the protective limits listed below — they are available directly from your account settings at any time.

Activating Deposit, Loss, or Session Limits

  • 1

    Log in to Your igm247 Account

    Access your account from any device using your registered credentials.

  • 2

    Navigate to Account Settings

    Select the "Responsible Gaming" section within your account settings panel.

  • 3

    Choose Your Limit Type

    Select from Deposit Limit, Loss Limit, Session Time Limit, or Reality Check frequency — and set your preferred value.

  • 4

    Confirm Your Setting

    Reductions take effect immediately. Increases to existing limits require a 7-day waiting period to take effect — this cooling-off period is intentional and protects you during periods of impulsive decision-making.

Requesting a Time-Out or Self-Exclusion

Time-out and self-exclusion requests can be made by contacting our support team via live chat, WhatsApp, or Telegram at any time. You may also submit a request via email to our support address. Self-exclusion is implemented within one (1) hour of your request being received and confirmed. During self-exclusion:

  • All betting and deposit functional ity is suspended immediately
  • Your account remains accessible solely for the purpose of withdrawing any remaining balance
  • All promotional and marketing communications are suppressed for the duration of the exclusion
  • Re-activation requests submitted before the exclusion period expires will not be processed — this policy is firm and non-negotiable
  • Upon expiry of the exclusion period, re-activation requires a formal request and a 24-hour reflection period before access is restored
If you are in a moment of distress and need immediate account suspension, contact our live chat team directly. Our agents are trained to process emergency self-exclusion requests within minutes.

Tips for Safer, More Enjoyable Gambling

igm247 wants every member to have a positive experience on our platform. The following practical guidelines can help you maintain a healthy relationship with gambling over the long term:

  • Set a strict budget before you start playing and treat it as an entertainment expense — not an investment
  • Never gamble when you are feeling stressed, depressed, under the influence of alcohol, or emotionally overwhelmed
  • Take regular breaks during gaming sessions — stand up, walk around, and reassess how you feel before continuing
  • Keep track of your total spending and review your transaction history regularly to maintain an accurate picture of your gambling activity
  • Balance gambling with other hobbies and social activities so that it remains one part of a varied lifestyle
  • Never borrow money to fund gambling, and never use credit facilities to make deposits
  • Accept losses as part of the experience — all casino and betting products carry a house edge, and no system or strategy guarantees a profit over time
  • Set a time limit for each session before you begin and commit to ending the session when that time is reached, regardless of your current win/loss position
  • If you are on a losing streak, resist the urge to immediately increase your stakes to recover losses — this behavior is one of the most common pathways into problem gambling
  • Discuss your gambling habits openly with someone you trust — transparency with a close friend or family member is one of the most effective protective factors against problem gambling
Remember: the house always holds a mathematical edge over the long run. Gambling is designed as entertainment. Approach every session with this mindset, and you are far less likely to develop harmful patterns.
