We Put Control at Your Fingertips

Citinow co provides a range of practical tools that allow you to manage your own gaming experience. These tools are designed to ensure you always play within a comfortable limit and never beyond your means.

Daily / Weekly / Monthly Deposit Limit

Set your own deposit limit as you see fit — daily, weekly, or monthly. Once the limit is set, the citinow co system will automatically block any deposit that exceeds the amount you specified, with no manual intervention required.

Personal Loss Limit

Set the maximum amount you are willing to lose within a given period. Once your loss limit is reached, the citinow co platform will automatically end your gaming session to prevent further losses.

Play Time Limit

Control how long you play each day by setting a session time limit. When the set time is almost up, citinow co will send you a reminder so you stay aware and can make a conscious decision to stop or continue.

Self-Break (Temporary Self-Exclusion)

Need a break from gaming? citinow co members can activate a self-exclusion period ranging from 24 hours to 6 months. During this time, your account will be suspended and you will not receive any marketing communications from us.

Permanent Self-Exclusion

For those who feel that gaming has seriously affected their lives, citinow co provides a permanent self-exclusion option. Your account will be permanently closed and you will not be permitted to register again on our platform.

Live Support and Counselling

The trained support team at citinow co is available to assist you anytime, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We can guide you through self-control tools or listen to your concerns without any judgment.

Entertainment, Not a Source of Income

What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means enjoying wagering and casino game activities as a form of entertainment, while maintaining full control over the time and money you spend. citinow co believes every member deserves a fun and stress-free playing experience.

Online gaming at citinow co is designed to deliver fun and entertainment. The money you use to play should be treated as an entertainment cost — just like buying a movie ticket or dining out at a restaurant — not as a way to generate income or resolve financial difficulties.

Many players in Malaysia have enjoyed online gaming responsibly for years without any issues. The key is setting clear limits, sticking to those limits, and playing with a calm mindset — not out of desperation or pressure.

Healthy Play Principles

  • Set a budget before you play and stick to those limits without exception.
  • Treat money spent as an entertainment cost that you are fully prepared to lose.
  • Do not chase losses — choosing to stop when you are losing is the mark of a smart player.
  • Take regular breaks and never let gaming interfere with your sleep, work, or relationships.
  • Do not play under the influence of alcohol or when you are emotionally distressed.
  • Gaming is meant to be fun — if it is no longer enjoyable, it is time to take a break.

Recognise the Warning Signs

Problem gambling rarely happens suddenly — it typically develops gradually. Recognise the early signs before they become more serious:

Spending beyond your means: Using bill money, savings, or loans to play, or borrowing from others solely to continue gambling.

Chasing losses: Continuing to play in hopes of "breaking even" after a loss, which often leads to even greater losses.

Hiding gaming habits: Lying to family members or friends about the time and money spent on gaming.

Neglecting responsibilities: Gaming begins to interfere with work, studies, family relationships, or other important daily activities.

Gaming to escape: Using gaming as a way to forget problems, stress, or negative feelings in daily life.

Unable to stop: Feeling uncomfortable or distressed when trying to reduce or stop gaming, even after having intended to do so.

Remember: Identifying a problem at an early stage is the most important step. If you or someone you care about shows any of the signs above, do not hesitate to seek help. The citinow co team is ready to assist you with full empathy and without any judgement.

Test Your Gaming Habits

This brief questionnaire is designed to help you assess your own gaming habits. Answer honestly — there are no right or wrong answers, and this information is for your personal reference only. If you answer "Yes" to two or more questions, we encourage you to speak with the citinow co support team.

Self-Assessment Questionnaire

1

Have you ever felt the need to bet with more money to feel the same excitement as before?

2

Have you ever lied to family members or friends about how much time or money you have spent on gaming?

3

Has gaming ever caused you to neglect work, school, or important family responsibilities?

4

Have you ever tried to stop playing but failed to do so, even when you genuinely wanted to quit?

5

Have you ever used money meant for basic necessities (bills, rent, food) for gaming purposes?

6

Do you play to escape personal problems, work stress, or feelings of discomfort?

Responsible Gaming FAQ

Answers to the most frequently asked questions by citinow co members regarding responsible gaming and self-control tools.

Log in to your citinow co account, then go to "Account Settings" and select the "Responsible Gaming" section. There you can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits according to your budget. Limits take effect immediately once saved, and any deposit attempt that exceeds the set limit will be automatically blocked.

Yes, permanent self-exclusion is available to all citinow co members. Once activated, your account will be permanently closed, all eligible balances will be processed for withdrawal, and you will no longer receive any marketing communications. citinow co will block re-registration using the same information. This process is irreversible, so please consider it carefully or speak with our support team beforehand.

A temporary self-break allows you to suspend your account for a set period between 24 hours and 6 months. Once that period ends, you can choose to resume or extend the break. Permanent self-exclusion is a final action — the account is closed forever and cannot be reopened. We recommend members considering a break to start with a temporary self-break first.

citinow co uses a behavioural monitoring system that analyses each member's gaming patterns. The system identifies sudden changes in playing habits such as unusual spikes in deposits, excessively long gaming sessions, or betting patterns that indicate stress. When these signs are detected, our team will proactively reach out to the member concerned to offer support and information about self-control tools.

Reducing a deposit limit can be done immediately and will take effect right away. However, to increase an existing deposit limit, there is a 7-day waiting period before the new limit comes into effect. This is a protective measure we have deliberately designed to give you time to reconsider before making a decision that may affect your budget.

Absolutely not. citinow co is a platform for individuals aged 18 and above only. All members must complete a strict identity verification (KYC) process during registration to ensure full compliance with this age requirement. Should we detect any account belonging to an underage individual, that account will be closed immediately and any remaining balance will be returned to the rightful original owner.

Our Responsibility to You

Citinow co is more than just an entertainment platform — we are a responsible partner in your entertainment journey.
