At PR789, your well-being always comes before your betting activity. This page covers the tools, limits and guidance available to every Pakistani user on our platform — so you can enjoy cricket, PSL, T20 matches and live casino in a healthy, controlled way.
For millions of fans in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi and across Pakistan, betting on cricket and live sports is a genuinely exciting pastime. The roar of a PSL final, a last-over T20 chase, a knockout ICC tournament match — these moments carry real emotion, and placing an informed bet can make watching even more engaging.
But gambling carries genuine financial risk, and for a small number of people it can become harmful. PR789 takes that seriously. We provide practical tools that put you in control — not to restrict your enjoyment, but to make sure that enjoyment never comes at a cost you cannot afford. Responsible gambling is not a footnote on this platform; it is built into the core of how we operate.
This page explains every responsible gambling tool available on PR789, how to activate them, what to do if you feel your gambling is getting out of hand, and where to find independent support. Please read it carefully — and if anything resonates, act on it today rather than later.
Every PR789 account comes with a full suite of responsible gambling tools, accessible directly from your account settings at any time.
Set a daily, weekly or monthly cap on how much you can deposit into your PR789 wallet in PKR. Once your chosen limit is reached, the system automatically blocks further deposits until the period resets. Limits take effect immediately when lowered and require a 24-hour cooling-off period when raised — giving you time to reconsider.
Instant when reducingDefine the maximum amount in PKR that you are comfortable losing over a given period — daily, weekly or monthly. When your net losses reach the limit you set, betting is paused for the remainder of that period. This is one of the most effective tools for keeping gambling within your personal budget and preventing a bad run from spiralling.
Highly recommendedCap the maximum PKR amount you can wager on any single bet or game round. Stake limits are particularly useful during high-adrenaline live in-play cricket markets or live casino sessions, where it can be tempting to chase a loss by significantly increasing your bet size in a single moment.
Per-bet controlSet a maximum session length — for example, 60 minutes per sitting. When your time is up, you receive a notification and are prompted to take a break. Losing track of time is one of the most common signs of problematic gambling behaviour, and this tool addresses it directly without requiring any willpower in the moment.
Break reminders includedConfigure periodic on-screen notifications — every 15, 30 or 60 minutes — that show you a summary of your current session: time elapsed, total staked, and net result in PKR. Reality checks bring you back to the facts at regular intervals and give you a clear prompt to continue, take a break or close the session entirely.
Customisable intervalsIf you feel you need a more decisive break, self-exclusion allows you to block access to your PR789 account for a fixed period — 30 days, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year — or permanently. During exclusion, your account is suspended, marketing communications are suppressed, and you cannot register a new account. Exclusions are enforced immediately and cannot be lifted early.
Permanent option availableSetting up limits takes less than two minutes. Here is how to do it from your PR789 account on desktop or mobile.
Log in to your PR789 account using your registered email address and password from any device — desktop or mobile browser.

Select the "Responsible Gambling" tab within Account Settings. All available limit tools are listed in this section.

Problem gambling does not always announce itself loudly. It often starts with small shifts in behaviour — spending a little more time on the app, chasing a loss after a bad PSL match night, or feeling irritable when you cannot access your account. The questions on the right are a starting point for honest self-reflection.
If you answer "yes" to three or more of these questions, we strongly encourage you to activate a cool-off break or self-exclusion through Account Settings, or to reach out to an independent support organisation for confidential guidance.
Problem gambling exists on a spectrum. Early action is always more effective than waiting until a crisis point.
Answer honestly — this checklist is for your benefit only and is not recorded by PR789.
PR789 encourages any user who is concerned about their gambling — or who is concerned about someone else — to reach out to an independent support organisation. The following are text-only references; PR789 does not speak on behalf of any external organisation.
GamCare is an internationally recognised organisation providing information, advice and support for people affected by problem gambling. Their resources are available in English and include self-help tools, live chat and counselling referrals. Widely referenced by licensed operators globally.
Gamblers Anonymous is a peer-support fellowship with a global network of meetings for individuals who want to stop gambling. Their 12-step programme and community support model has helped people worldwide gain control over compulsive gambling behaviour.
BeGambleAware provides free, confidential information and support to anyone affected by problem gambling — including family members and friends of someone with a gambling problem. They offer online resources and referral to specialist treatment services.
Contact PR789 support directly at [email protected] using the subject line "Responsible Gambling Support". Our team can assist with immediate account restrictions, self-exclusion activation and referrals to independent support resources at no cost to you.
If a family member is struggling with gambling, Gam-Anon provides support specifically for the friends and families of people affected. Speaking to a trusted imam, community counsellor or healthcare professional in your city — whether Karachi, Lahore, Peshawar or Multan — is also a valid first step.
For users in Pakistan experiencing distress related to gambling, mental health helpline services such as Umang (0317-4288665) provide confidential emotional support. Contact details are provided here as plain text only — no clickable links. Please note PR789 is not affiliated with any of these organisations.
PR789 operates a strict 18+ policy. Age verification is conducted during the account registration process and again at the point of first withdrawal. Accounts found to belong to minors are suspended immediately and any funds held are frozen pending investigation.
If you share a mobile device, tablet or computer with children in your household — a common situation in many Pakistani homes — we strongly recommend the following precautions:
Mandatory at registration and first withdrawal
All new PR789 users must complete Know Your Customer (KYC) verification, which includes confirmation of age via a valid identity document — typically a Pakistani CNIC (age 18+) or passport. Registration without valid KYC documentation cannot proceed to withdrawal, and any account suspected of being operated by a minor will be suspended pending review.
Cricket, PSL, ICC tournaments, live casino and more — all available on PR789 for Pakistani users who play within their means, with safety tools always within reach.
18+ only, or the higher minimum required by the operator or applicable licence jurisdiction. Gambling involves financial risk. Local laws may restrict gambling. Please gamble responsibly.
