Kombo88 believes gambling should always be an enjoyable form of entertainment — never a source of financial stress or personal harm. This page outlines our commitment to player welfare, the tools available to every Malaysian player, and where to turn if gambling stops feeling like fun.
The vast majority of people who gamble online do so safely — they set a budget, enjoy the experience, and move on regardless of the outcome. For this group, gambling is genuinely what it should be: entertainment. Kombo88 is built to serve those players well, and to ensure that every interaction with the platform supports that healthy relationship with gaming.
At the same time, Kombo88 recognises that a minority of players can develop a problematic relationship with gambling — one that affects their finances, their mental health, and their relationships. Problem gambling does not discriminate. It can affect players in Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Johor Bahru, Petaling Jaya, or anywhere else in Malaysia, from any income bracket and any background.
Responsible gambling at Kombo88 is not a tick-box exercise. It is a set of genuine, practical commitments — embedded in our platform design, our customer support practices, and our internal monitoring systems. We invest in responsible gambling tools not because we are required to, but because we believe that a healthy player is a long-term player, and because protecting people from harm is simply the right thing to do.
Every player who creates an account on Kombo88 has access to a full suite of self-management tools from day one — no need to contact support, no waiting periods, no friction. These tools are designed to be used proactively, before a problem develops, as part of a healthy approach to recreational gambling.
If any of the above describe your experience, please use the tools on this page or contact our support team immediately.
Malaysian law and Kombo88's own platform policy both establish 21 years as the minimum age for participation in casino games and sports betting. This is not a soft guideline — it is a hard requirement, enforced through multiple verification layers.
Age verification is conducted during the KYC (Know Your Customer) process, which all players must complete before their first withdrawal is processed. Kombo88 may also request age verification at any other point during the account lifecycle, including at registration, following unusual activity patterns, or where there is any doubt about a player's age.
Any account found to have been registered by a person under 21 years of age will be suspended immediately. All gameplay history on that account will be reviewed, and any deposits made will be refunded after deducting any winnings credited to the account, in accordance with our Terms & Conditions.
We also strongly recommend that parents and guardians in Malaysia use parental control software to restrict access to gambling websites on shared devices — particularly devices used by minors. These tools add an additional layer of protection beyond what Kombo88 can enforce at the platform level.
ONLY — NO EXCEPTIONS
Every Kombo88 player has access to the following tools from within their account settings. None of these require contacting support — they are designed to be used independently, instantly, and without barriers.
Set a maximum deposit amount per day, week, or month. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits will be accepted until the period resets.
60% of weekly limit used — RM200 remaining
Define the maximum amount you are comfortable losing in any given day, week, or month. Once your loss limit is reached, wagering is paused until the period resets.
Set a maximum session duration to prevent extended play periods. The platform will notify you when you are approaching your time limit, and will end the session automatically if you choose.
Take a break from the platform without permanently closing your account. Cool-off periods are ideal when you feel you need a short pause to reassess your gambling habits.
Request permanent or indefinite exclusion from the Kombo88 platform. Self-exclusion is the most powerful tool available and is intended for players who recognise that their gambling has become harmful.
To request self-exclusion, contact our 24/7 live support team or email [email protected]. The request will be processed promptly.
You may permanently close your Kombo88 account at any time, for any reason, without penalty. Verified balances will be refunded to your registered payment method following KYC completion.
Responsible gambling at Kombo88 is not just about the tools we offer players — it's also about how the platform itself is built and monitored.
Our internal systems continuously monitor player behaviour patterns for indicators of problem gambling — including rapid loss escalation, frequency spikes, and failed deposit attempts. Where patterns of concern are identified, our team proactively reaches out.
Kombo88 does not target gambling promotions at self-excluded players, players with active responsible gambling restrictions, or users who have previously indicated they may be experiencing gambling-related difficulties.
Our 24/7 customer support agents receive training in responsible gambling awareness. They know how to engage sensitively with players who may be showing signs of distress and can guide them toward the appropriate tools and external resources.
Opt-in reality check notifications can be configured to appear at regular intervals during gameplay — reminding you of your session duration, net outcome, and providing a prompt to review your limits or take a break.
Kombo88 does not extend credit to players, does not offer buy-now-pay-later gambling arrangements, and does not accept payments from third-party financial instruments that could facilitate borrowing to gamble.
RTP percentages are published for every slot and casino game. Players have access to their complete session history, win/loss records, and financial transaction logs directly from their account dashboard at any time.
Take a moment to honestly consider the following questions. There are no right or wrong answers — this is simply a tool to help you reflect on your current relationship with gambling. If you answer "yes" to several of these questions, it may be worth taking a break or speaking to someone you trust.
Have you ever gambled more than you planned to in a single session, even after telling yourself you would stop?
Have you used money set aside for essential expenses — rent, groceries, bills — to fund gambling?
Have you felt irritable, restless, or anxious when you were unable to gamble for a period of time?
Have you tried to win back money you lost by placing further bets (chasing losses)?
Have you lied to a family member, friend, or employer about how much you gamble or how much you have lost?
Have you borrowed money or sold possessions to fund gambling activity?
Has gambling had a negative impact on your work performance, family relationships, or social life?
Do you find yourself thinking about gambling frequently, planning your next session, or calculating potential winnings when you are not gambling?
Most players enjoy gambling responsibly their entire lives. The difference between healthy recreational gambling and problematic gambling often comes down to a few key habits — practised consistently from the very first session.
Only ever gamble with money you can genuinely afford to lose — money that has no other committed purpose. If losing that amount would cause you financial stress, it is the wrong amount to wager.
If you or someone you know is struggling with problem gambling, you do not need to face it alone. The following organisations provide professional, confidential support in Malaysia and internationally. All contact details below are for text reference only.

If you share a device with children or young adults under 21, we strongly recommend installing parental control or content filtering software to prevent access to gambling websites. While Kombo88 enforces strict age verification at the platform level, parental control software provides an important additional layer of protection at the device level.
Widely used parental filtering solutions include built-in iOS Screen Time settings, Android Family Link, and third-party applications. These can be configured to block access to gambling categories across all browsers and applications on a shared device.
If you believe a minor has accessed the Kombo88 platform, contact our support team immediately at [email protected]. We will investigate the account without delay and take all necessary action, including account suspension and refund of any deposits.
Set your limits, know your budget, and play for fun. Kombo88 is here to offer great entertainment — not financial pressure. For players aged 21 and above only.
