Play Responsibly

Responsible Gambling
at imaju

At imaju, we believe that gambling should always be a source of entertainment — never a solution to financial pressure or emotional stress. We are committed to providing every Malaysian player with the tools, information, and support they need to keep their gambling experience safe, controlled, and enjoyable.

Strictly for players aged 21 and above. This platform does not permit underage gambling under any circumstances.

Tools & Protections We Provide

imaju offers a comprehensive set of responsible gambling features built directly into every player account — no additional setup required to access them.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you deposit into your imaju account. Once the limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Limits take effect immediately when reduced and can only be increased after a mandatory 7-day cooling-off period.

Session Time Limits

Decide how long you want each gaming session to last. imaju will send you an in-platform alert when your chosen session duration is approaching and will automatically log you out when the limit is reached, giving you a natural break from gameplay.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a longer break, our self-exclusion tool lets you suspend your account for a defined period — from 30 days up to a permanent closure. During self-exclusion, you will not receive marketing communications from imaju and your account will be inaccessible.

Loss Limits

Set a ceiling on how much you are prepared to lose over a given period. When your net losses reach the pre-set threshold, gameplay is paused for the remainder of the period. Loss limits are a practical way to keep your gambling strictly within what you can afford to lose.

Reality Checks

Enable periodic on-screen reminders that show you how long you have been playing and your net position for the session. Reality checks help keep time perception accurate — a common challenge in immersive live dealer and slot gaming environments.

Strict Age Verification

imaju enforces a rigorous KYC process to verify that every player is aged 21 or above before any real-money activity is permitted. Identity documents are reviewed thoroughly and accounts found to belong to underage individuals are closed and refunded immediately.

Recognising Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually and is not always easy to spot in oneself. If several of the signs below feel familiar, we strongly encourage you to use imaju's self-exclusion tools or reach out to a support service.

Gambling disorder affects people from all walks of life — in Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Johor Bahru, and beyond. Seeking help early makes a significant difference to recovery outcomes.

1
Chasing Losses

Continuing to gamble specifically to recover money you have already lost, rather than for entertainment — often leading to larger and riskier bets.

2
Spending Beyond Budget

Regularly spending more on gambling than you intended, including using money set aside for rent, bills, food, or other essential expenses.

3
Preoccupation with Gambling

Spending a significant portion of your day thinking about gambling — reliving past sessions, planning future bets, or researching odds constantly.

4
Concealing Activity

Hiding the extent of your gambling from family members, close friends, or your partner, or feeling the need to be secretive about time and money spent.

5
Borrowing to Gamble

Taking personal loans, using credit cards, or borrowing money from friends and family specifically to fund gambling activity.

6
Inability to Stop

Having made repeated unsuccessful attempts to cut down or stop gambling entirely, or feeling restless and irritable when trying to do so.

Using imaju's Responsible Gambling Tools

All tools are accessible from your account settings panel. Restrictions take effect instantly when applied — no waiting period for any limit you set.

Setting Deposit Limits

Navigate to Account Settings → Responsible Gambling → Deposit Limits. Choose your preferred period and enter a maximum amount in Malaysian Ringgit (MYR). Common starting points used by our players:

RM 100Daily
RM 500Weekly
RM 1,500Monthly
RM 200Daily
RM 800Weekly
RM 2,500Monthly

Reductions apply immediately. Increases are subject to a mandatory 7-day review period before taking effect, giving you time to reconsider.

Activating Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is available for the following durations: 30 days, 90 days, 180 days, 1 year, or permanent closure. To activate, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your imaju account and go to Account Settings.
  2. Select "Responsible Gambling" from the settings menu.
  3. Click "Self-Exclusion" and choose your preferred duration.
  4. Confirm your decision — your account will be locked immediately.
  5. Contact our support team at [email protected] to request early reactivation after the minimum period has elapsed.
Session & Reality Check Controls

Session time limits can be set to trigger an auto-logout after 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, or a custom duration you define. Once the session ends, you must actively log back in to continue — a deliberate friction point designed to prompt reflection.

Reality check pop-ups can be configured to appear every 15, 30, or 60 minutes during active gameplay. Each pop-up displays your total session time, net wins or losses for the session, and a prompt asking whether you wish to continue.

The cooling-off feature lets you take a short break of 24 hours, 48 hours, or 72 hours without committing to a full self-exclusion period — ideal when you feel you simply need a brief pause.

How Is Your Gambling Behaviour?

The questions below are adapted from widely used responsible gambling screening frameworks. Answering "yes" to three or more of these questions may indicate that speaking to a professional counsellor would be beneficial.

Q1

Have you ever gambled more than you planned to, even after deciding beforehand to stop at a certain amount or time?

Q2

Have you ever felt the need to increase the size of your bets to get the same level of excitement from gambling?

Q3

Did you ever gamble as a way to escape from personal problems, relieve feelings of anxiety, depression, or boredom?

Q4

Have you ever borrowed money, sold belongings, or used a credit card to fund gambling activity?

Q5

Have arguments with family, friends, or your partner about money or the amount of time you spend gambling occurred more than once?

Q6

After losing money gambling, have you returned on another day to try to win it back ("chasing your losses")?

Important: This self-assessment is informational only and is not a clinical diagnosis. If you answered "yes" to three or more questions, we strongly encourage you to activate imaju's self-exclusion tool and reach out to one of the support organisations listed below. You can also contact our responsible gambling team directly via the support chat on this platform.

imaju's Commitment to Safer Gambling

Responsible gambling is not a checkbox for imaju — it is embedded into every aspect of how we build and operate this platform. We invest continuously in prevention tools, staff training, and player education because we believe the long-term health of our player community matters more than short-term revenue.

We enforce a strict 21-and-above age policy across all product categories — casino games, live dealer tables, sports betting, and football wagering including Liga Super Malaysia and English Premier League markets. Any account found to be operated by an underage individual is closed and all funds are returned immediately.

Our responsible gambling team monitors account activity for patterns associated with at-risk behaviour. Where such patterns are identified, we reach out proactively to offer support — rather than waiting for a player to come to us first.
