Player Safety First

Responsible Gaming

At cafeqq, we believe that gambling should always be an enjoyable form of entertainment — never a source of stress, financial strain, or harm. This page explains the tools, resources, and policies we have in place to help you stay in control.

Adults Only — You Must Be 21 or Older to Play on cafeqq

Our Commitment to Safe Play

cafeqq takes responsible gaming seriously. We recognize that while the vast majority of our players across Jakarta, Surabaya, Bandung, Bali, and beyond enjoy our platform as a leisure activity without any issues, a small number of individuals may find that gambling starts to affect their daily lives in negative ways.

That is why cafeqq has integrated a comprehensive suite of player-protection tools directly into every account — at no cost to you. These tools are designed to give you meaningful control over how you engage with the Platform, allowing you to set limits, take breaks, or step away entirely when you need to.

Responsible gaming is not a checkbox for us — it is a core part of how we operate. Our support team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including Indonesian public holidays, to assist any player who needs guidance, wants to activate a protection tool, or is concerned about their own or a loved one's gambling behavior.

Important Notice: Gambling is intended solely as a form of adult entertainment. It carries financial risk and is not a reliable way to generate income. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose. Do not chase losses. If gambling is causing you distress, financial difficulty, or affecting your relationships, please use the tools and resources on this page or contact our support team immediately.

21+ Policy Strictly Enforced: cafeqq operates a zero-tolerance policy toward underage gambling. All players are required to verify their age before withdrawals are processed. Accounts found to belong to individuals under 21 years of age will be immediately closed and deposits returned.

Player Protection Tools

Every cafeqq account comes with the following protection features built in. All tools are free to use and can be activated at any time through your account settings or by contacting our support team.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum cap on how much you can deposit within a given time frame — daily, weekly, or monthly. Once set, a limit reduction takes effect immediately. Any request to increase a limit is subject to a mandatory 48-hour cooling-off period before it comes into force, giving you time to reconsider.

Session Time Reminders

Set custom alerts that notify you when your active gaming session has reached a specified duration — for example, 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours. This feature helps you stay aware of how long you have been playing and encourages you to take regular breaks.

Cooling-Off Periods

Temporarily suspend your cafeqq account for a set period without permanently closing it. Available cooling-off durations are 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a cooling-off period, you cannot deposit, place bets, or access your account. The suspension cannot be reversed early.

Self-Exclusion

Request permanent closure of your account and prevention of re-registration for a minimum period of 6 months. During self-exclusion, cafeqq will not send you any promotional communications. You may request an extension to your exclusion period at any time; requests to lift exclusion early require a mandatory 24-hour review.

Loss Limits

Define the maximum amount you are willing to lose over a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Once your loss threshold is reached for that period, betting is automatically suspended until the period resets. This tool helps prevent reactive over-spending during losing streaks.

24/7 Support Access

Our Indonesian-speaking support team is available around the clock via live chat and email. If you are concerned about your gambling behavior, feel overwhelmed, or simply want help activating any of the above tools, reach out at any time — no judgment, no delay.

Is Gambling Becoming a Problem?

Problem gambling can develop gradually and is not always easy to recognize from the inside. The questions below are a self-assessment tool designed to help you reflect honestly on your current relationship with gambling. This is not a clinical diagnostic instrument — it is a starting point for self-reflection.

If you answer "yes" to three or more of these questions, we strongly encourage you to reach out to our support team, activate a cooling-off period or self-exclusion tool, and consider speaking with a professional counselor.

Self-Assessment Checklist
Answer honestly — this information is for your own benefit only.
1
Do you spend more money on gambling than you originally planned or can comfortably afford?
2
Do you find yourself returning to gambling to try to recover money you have already lost ("chasing losses")?
3
Have you borrowed money, sold belongings, or misused funds intended for household expenses in order to gamble?
4
Do you feel restless, irritable, or anxious when you try to cut back on or stop gambling?
5
Has gambling caused significant arguments, stress, or distance in your relationships with family or friends?
6
Do you feel the need to keep your gambling activity secret from people close to you?
7
Have you tried to control or stop gambling in the past but found yourself unable to do so?
8
Do you gamble as a way to escape stress, anxiety, boredom, or difficult emotions?
If any of these questions resonate with you, please take action today. Activating a cooling-off period or self-exclusion costs you nothing and may make a significant difference. Contact us at [email protected] — our team will help you without judgment.

Signs to Watch For in Others

Friends and family members are often among the first to notice changes in a person's behavior that may signal a developing gambling problem. If someone close to you displays the following signs, consider having an open and compassionate conversation with them — and encourage them to seek help.

Unexplained Financial Difficulties
Frequently borrowing money, struggling to cover regular bills, or unexplained depletion of savings without a clear reason.
Behavioral and Mood Changes
Becoming secretive about online activity, sleeping at unusual hours, increased irritability or mood swings — especially after being online.
Social Withdrawal
Withdrawing from social activities, family gatherings, or hobbies they previously enjoyed in favor of spending time gambling online.
Preoccupation with Gambling
Frequently talking about past wins, planning the next session, or showing an inability to stop thinking about gambling even during normal daily activities.

If you believe someone is in immediate danger due to gambling-related financial or mental health crisis, please encourage them to seek professional support. Our support team can also provide guidance to family members concerned about a loved one's gambling behavior.

How to Activate Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is the most comprehensive protection tool available on cafeqq. Follow these steps to activate it. The process takes under five minutes and goes into effect immediately upon confirmation.

  • 1

    Contact Our Support Team

    Reach our team via the live chat widget on the cafeqq platform, or send an email to [email protected] with the subject line "Self-Exclusion Request". Both channels are monitored 24/7.

  • 2

    Verify Your Identity

    Our agent will ask you to confirm your registered username and email address to ensure the exclusion is applied to the correct account. No additional documents are required for this step.

  • 3

    cafeqq will immediately remove your contact details from all promotional mailing lists. You will not receive any bonus offers, newsletters, or promotional SMS during your exclusion period.

Frequently Asked Questions

The questions below address the most common concerns players have about cafeqq's responsible gaming tools and policies.

Yes. Deposit limits, loss limits, and session time reminders can all be configured directly within your account settings under the Responsible Gaming section. If you encounter any difficulty, our support team can activate any limit on your behalf immediately.

No. Cooling-off periods cannot be reversed or shortened once they are active. This is by design — the restriction only works as a genuine protective tool if it cannot be immediately undone. You may still contact support for guidance during a cooling-off period.

Any verified real-money balance remaining in your account at the time of self-exclusion will be returned to your registered bank account or e-wallet within 3–5 business days. Bonus funds and any wagering-requirement-related balances are forfeited per our Terms & Conditions.

No. Once self-exclusion is active, cafeqq will remove your contact information from all marketing lists. You will not receive promotional emails, SMS messages, or any other communications designed to encourage you to return to the platform. Transactional communications (e.g., balance refund confirmation) may still be sent.

Yes. You must be at least 21 years of age to register and play on cafeqq. We verify age as part of our KYC process. Accounts found to belong to individuals under 21 will be immediately closed and any deposits returned in full.

You may request a limit increase at any time through your account settings or via support. However, any increase to an existing deposit or loss limit is subject to a mandatory 48-hour waiting period before it takes effect. This cooling-off window is designed to allow you time to reconsider the decision.

Principles of Responsible Play

cafeqq recommends that all players keep the following principles in mind every time they log in. These guidelines will help ensure that gaming remains a positive and entertaining experience.

Set a Budget

Decide how much you can afford to spend before you start playing — and stick to it. Treat your gaming budget as an entertainment expense, not an investment.

Limit Your Time

Set a time limit for each gaming session and use our session reminders to enforce it. Taking regular breaks keeps the experience fresh and reduces the risk of impulsive decisions.

Play for Fun

Gambling should be an enjoyable leisure activity. If you find that you are no longer enjoying it — or are playing primarily to escape stress — take a break and reflect.

Never Chase Losses

Losses are part of gambling. Accept them as the cost of entertainment and never increase bets or deposits in an attempt to recover what you have already lost.
