Gaming should always be fun — a way to enjoy cricket betting, PSL matches, casino games and more in your free time. At Gas Mandi, we are committed to making sure it stays that way. This page gives you the tools, knowledge and honest guidance to keep your gaming healthy and in check.
Six free tools available to every Gas Mandi player to help you stay in control of your gaming activity.
Set a daily, weekly or monthly limit on how much PKR you can deposit into your Gas Mandi account. Once the limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. You can lower your limit instantly, but raising it takes a cooling-off period.
Lose track of time on the platform? Set a session reminder and Gas Mandi will alert you when you have been playing for a set amount of time. You decide how long is long enough — whether that's 30 minutes or a couple of hours.
Need a short break from gaming without fully closing your account? The Take a Break feature lets you pause your account for a set period — 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days. During this time, you cannot log in or place any bets or spins.
If you feel you need a longer break or a permanent one, self-exclusion lets you close your Gas Mandi account for a minimum of six months or indefinitely. Contact our support team to activate this. During self-exclusion, your account cannot be reopened on request during the exclusion period.
Set a cap on how much you are comfortable losing within a given period. When your losses reach the limit you have set, you will be restricted from placing further bets until the next period begins. A simple way to make sure one bad session does not spiral.
View a full record of your bets, casino sessions, deposits and withdrawals from within your account. Transparency about your own activity is one of the most practical steps you can take to stay informed and in control of your gaming habits.
Responsible gaming is not about telling you how to spend your leisure time or suggesting that betting is something to be ashamed of. Millions of Pakistani cricket fans follow PSL, T20 and international matches with the same passion they bring to a live game — and for many, adding a little bet to the mix makes it more exciting. That is completely fine.
Responsible gaming simply means keeping that experience enjoyable. It means playing with money you have already decided you are comfortable spending — not money earmarked for rent, groceries or your family. It means knowing when to stop, and recognising if the excitement of a win or the frustration of a loss starts to feel like something more than casual entertainment.
Gas Mandi is an entertainment platform. Our casino games, slots, live dealer tables, sports betting and crash games are designed to be fun. Winnings are a bonus — never rely on them as income. The house edge exists in casino games, and sports outcomes are genuinely unpredictable. A sensible player goes in knowing this, sets a budget, enjoys the session and walks away regardless of the outcome.
If at any point gaming stops feeling fun and starts feeling like a need — to chase a loss, to relieve stress, or because it is the only thing you look forward to — that is a signal worth paying attention to. The tools on this page are here precisely for those moments.
Gaming habits can change gradually. Here are some honest signs that your relationship with gaming may need a closer look.
You keep playing after a loss specifically to try and win back what you lost, increasing your bets in the process. This is one of the clearest warning signals.
You sit down for a quick game and realise hours have passed. You miss meals, family time or sleep because of gaming sessions that go on far longer than intended.
You deposit more than you originally planned, dip into savings, or find yourself skipping other expenses to fund your gaming activity.
You log in when you are stressed, anxious or upset — not for entertainment, but to escape from something. Gaming used as emotional relief can quickly become a habit that is hard to break.
You feel the need to hide your gaming from family or friends, downplay how much you spend or play, or become irritated when someone asks about it.
You set a budget or time limit for yourself but consistently override it once you are in a session. Intentions and actions no longer match up.
Tick any statements that apply to your gaming behaviour over the past month. This is for your own honest reflection — no data is submitted anywhere.
A simple five-step approach to budgeting your PKR gaming spend — before you even open the app.
Start with your total take-home pay or income for the month in PKR. This is your starting point — everything else comes out of this first.
Rent, utility bills, groceries, school fees, transport costs, loan payments — deduct every necessary expense before thinking about gaming.
Before you allocate any leisure spending, set aside your savings target for the month. Gaming money should never come from savings.
From what remains, decide what portion is for all entertainment — cinema, eating out, gaming included. Be realistic and conservative with the gaming slice.
Log into your Gas Mandi account and enter that figure as your monthly deposit limit. Once it is set, the platform will enforce it so you do not have to rely on willpower alone.
Look at your activity history and compare actual spending against your plan. Adjust the following month's limit up or down based on what you find — stay honest with yourself.
Every responsible gaming feature on Gas Mandi is free to use and available directly from your account settings.
Log into your Gas Mandi account, go to Account Settings and select Responsible Gaming. Choose daily, weekly or monthly and enter your preferred PKR limit. The limit takes effect immediately. To increase a limit, a 48-hour review period applies automatically — this is a protective measure, not a restriction.
In your account settings under Responsible Gaming, enable Session Reminders and choose your preferred interval — 30 minutes, 1 hour or 2 hours. When the time is up, a notification will appear on screen. You can choose to continue or end the session — the reminder is a prompt, not a forced logout.
Under Responsible Gaming in your settings, select Take a Break and choose your preferred duration — 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days. Your account will be temporarily suspended for that period. You will not be able to log in, deposit or place any bets until the break period ends.
Self-exclusion is a longer-term step. Contact the Gas Mandi support team directly via live chat or email and request self-exclusion. You can choose a minimum period of six months or opt for permanent closure. During the exclusion period, your account cannot be reopened — even if you request it. This is by design, to protect you.
Set your budget, use your free responsible gaming tools, and enjoy cricket betting, PSL markets, live casino and more — all in good fun. Register today and play smart from day one.
