Strictly Adults Only — You Must Be 21 or Older to Play

dino89 enforces a strict minimum age of 21 years for all account registrations. Age verification is mandatory during the KYC process, and any account found to belong to a person under 21 is permanently closed without exception. We support parental control software and encourage parents and guardians to monitor minors' internet use. If you believe an underage person has accessed this platform, contact us immediately at [email protected] (plain text — not a link).

Six Pillars of Player Protection

These are the core responsible gaming principles that govern every aspect of the dino89 platform — from product design to customer support protocols.

Mandatory Age Verification

Every account undergoes identity verification before any withdrawal is processed, and age-confirmation checks are applied at registration. Players under 21 are permanently blocked from accessing the platform. This is not a soft recommendation — it is a non-negotiable platform rule enforced by our KYC team.

Deposit Limit Controls

Members can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from their account settings. Limit reductions take effect immediately. Limit increases require a mandatory 7-day cooling-off period before they become active, giving you time to reconsider any decision to increase spending beyond your original plan.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum session duration to receive an automatic alert when your play time reaches your chosen limit. Session timers are available in increments from 30 minutes to 8 hours. When a session limit is reached, the platform prompts you to take a break — you can always resume after a brief reflection period.

Cooling-Off & Time-Out

Need a short break? A time-out suspends your account for a set period — ranging from 24 hours to 6 weeks — during which you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. Unlike self-exclusion, a time-out can be ended at any point after the minimum period has elapsed. It is designed for short-term breaks, not crisis situations.

Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is a formal, binding commitment to stop gambling for a defined minimum period. Once activated, a self-exclusion cannot be reversed for at least six months. dino89 closes the account, suppresses all marketing communications, and flags the account against re-registration attempts during the exclusion period.

Responsible Gaming Monitoring

Our platform uses automated pattern analysis to identify early warning indicators of problem gambling — such as sudden large deposit increases, unusual session frequency, or erratic betting stakes. Where such patterns are detected, our team proactively reaches out with support information and may apply protective limits under our duty-of-care framework.

What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means engaging with gambling as a form of entertainment — not as a source of income, a way to solve financial problems, or a coping mechanism for stress. Like any leisure activity, gambling carries inherent risk. The difference between recreational gambling and problem gambling often lies not in how much money is involved, but in how much control the player maintains.

Problem gambling can affect people from all walks of life across Indonesia — from Jakarta to Surabaya, from Bali to Medan. It does not discriminate by income, age (within the adult bracket), or gambling experience. The activities that create risk are familiar ones: sports betting on BRI Liga 1 matches, slot sessions, togel (Indonesia's traditional numbers lottery) draws, and live casino tables. Any of these can become compulsive for a small proportion of players.

dino89 is not able to prevent every problem, but we are committed to making it as easy as possible to stay in control — and to get help quickly if control is lost. The tools on this page are free, permanent features of your account, not add-ons you need to unlock.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you recognise any of the following in your own behaviour or in someone you know, it may be time to use one of our support tools or speak to a professional:

  • Gambling with money intended for bills, food, or rent
  • Chasing losses by placing larger or more frequent bets
  • Feeling restless or irritable when not gambling
  • Lying to friends or family about gambling habits
  • Borrowing money specifically to fund gambling
  • Gambling for longer than originally intended, session after session
  • Gambling as an escape from anxiety, depression, or life pressures
  • Failed repeated attempts to cut back or stop gambling
  • Neglecting work, study, or family responsibilities due to gambling
  • Experiencing euphoria or a "rush" that drives increasingly risky bets

Quick Self-Assessment

Answer the following questions honestly to gauge whether your gambling habits are within a healthy range. This is not a diagnostic tool — it is a starting point for reflection. If you answer "Yes" to three or more questions, we recommend speaking with our support team or a professional counselling service.

Q1 Do you often spend more time or money gambling than you originally planned?
Never Sometimes Often Always
Q2 Have you ever gambled to try to recover money you had previously lost?
Never Rarely Sometimes Regularly
Q3 Has gambling ever caused financial problems for you or your household?
No Minor issue Significant issue Serious crisis
Q4 Do you feel anxious, irritable, or low when you are unable to gamble?
Never Occasionally Frequently Almost always
Q5 Have you hidden the extent of your gambling from people close to you?
Never Once or twice Several times Routinely
Q6 Have you ever borrowed money or sold belongings to fund gambling?
Never Once A few times Regularly

This assessment is not a substitute for professional advice. If your answers concern you, please use our self-exclusion or time-out tools immediately, and consider reaching out to a licensed gambling counsellor. Our 24/7 support team can point you toward appropriate local resources in Indonesia.

How to activate: Log in to your dino89 account, navigate to Account Settings → Responsible Gaming, and select the tool you wish to apply. Changes take effect as shown in the table above. For self-exclusion requests, you may also contact our support team directly — the team is trained to process these requests sensitively and without delay.

Activating Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is the strongest protective tool available on dino89. Once confirmed, it is binding for the full chosen duration. Follow these steps to activate it. If you need help at any stage, our support team is available 24/7.

01
Log In to Your dino89 Account

Access the platform via desktop or mobile browser. You will need your registered email address and password. If you have forgotten your login credentials, use the account recovery option or contact support before proceeding.

02
Navigate to Account Settings

Click your account avatar or username in the top right corner of the platform. From the dropdown menu, select "Account Settings". On mobile browsers, this option is accessible via the hamburger menu under your profile section.

03
Select the "Responsible Gaming" Tab

Within Account Settings, locate and click the "Responsible Gaming" tab. All protective tools — including deposit limits, time-out, and self-exclusion — are listed here in a single consolidated view.

04
Choose Self-Exclusion and Your Duration

Select "Self-Exclusion" from the tool list. Choose your exclusion period: 6 months, 1 year, or Permanent. Read the confirmation statement carefully — it clearly outlines what self-exclusion means and that it cannot be reversed before the minimum period expires.

05
Confirm Your Decision

Type your confirmation phrase as prompted and click "Confirm Self-Exclusion". The action takes effect immediately. Your account is suspended, your balance is preserved for withdrawal after the exclusion period, and all marketing communications are suppressed within 24 hours.

06
Alternatively, Contact Support Directly

If you prefer not to navigate the account settings yourself — or if you are in a moment of crisis and need immediate help — contact our support team. Provide your registered name and email address and state that you wish to self-exclude. The team will action your request within minutes and can also provide information about professional support services available in Indonesia.

Important: During a self-exclusion period, do not attempt to open a new dino89 account using different details. Circumventing self-exclusion is a serious breach of the Terms & Conditions and may result in permanent forfeiture of any funds associated with the new account. If gambling is causing you serious harm, please reach out to a qualified counsellor rather than attempting to resume play.

Tips for Healthy Gambling

The vast majority of dino89 members gamble recreationally without any issues. Here are the habits that distinguish healthy recreational gamblers from those at risk.

Set a Budget Before You Play

Decide in advance exactly how much you are comfortable losing — because you may lose. Never exceed that figure, and never use funds allocated to living expenses, rent, or savings.

Set a Time Limit Per Session

Use our session timer feature. Decide how long each gambling session will last and stick to it regardless of your balance. Taking regular breaks keeps your decision-making sharp and reduces impulsive bets.

Gamble for Fun, Not Profit

Treat gambling like going to a concert or a restaurant — money spent is the cost of entertainment. If you win, that is a bonus. Never rely on gambling winnings as an expected income stream.

Never Chase Your Losses

Placing larger bets to recover previous losses is one of the most common patterns that leads to problem gambling. If you have reached your budget limit, stop — the next session is a separate, independent event.

Balance gambling with other activities. Healthy recreational gamblers typically have a range of hobbies and social outlets. If you find that gambling is the primary way you relax or socialise, that is a signal worth reflecting on — even if no financial harm has occurred yet.

Avoid gambling when emotional. Stress, grief, loneliness, and anxiety are states in which decision-making is impaired. Gambling when emotionally vulnerable dramatically increases the risk of chasing losses or spending beyond your means.
