Our 24/7 support team includes Indonesian-speaking agents available across WIB, WITA, and WIT time zones.

Our Commitment to You

mau88 is more than a gaming platform — we are a partner in responsible play. Our commitment to player wellbeing is embedded into the design of every feature on this site.

1
Strict Age Verification

Every player must verify they are 21 years of age or older before accessing real-money gaming. Age checks are performed at registration and again at first withdrawal via our KYC process, including government-issued KTP review.

2
Player Self-Management Tools

We provide a suite of tools — deposit limits, session timers, loss caps, and cool-off periods — so you remain the decision-maker at all times. These can be activated instantly via our support team.

3
Proactive Monitoring

Our systems monitor for behavioral patterns associated with problem gambling — rapidly escalating deposit frequency, extended unbroken sessions, and chasing-loss bet patterns — and flag accounts for welfare checks.

4
Transparent Game Odds

All games on mau88 display certified RTP (Return to Player) percentages. We do not manipulate odds or withhold payout rates. Players can make informed decisions based on accurate, independently verified data.

5
Reality Checks

Players can opt into periodic session reminders that display elapsed time and net session result, helping maintain awareness of time spent and money wagered during any gaming session.

6
Permanent Self-Exclusion

Players who feel they need a permanent break may request irreversible account closure. Once actioned, this cannot be undone — we take this commitment seriously and will not attempt to re-engage excluded players with marketing.

Player Protection Tools

Every tool below is available at no cost to all registered mau88 players. Contact our support team at any time to activate or adjust any of these controls.

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum deposit amount per day, week, or calendar month. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Limit reductions take effect immediately; increases require a 7-day cooling period before activation.

Loss Limits

Cap the total amount you can lose across all game types — slots, live casino, togel (Indonesia's traditional numbers lottery), or sports betting — over a defined period. When your loss limit is hit, your account is automatically restricted from further wagering until the next period.

Session Time Limits

Define a maximum duration for any single gaming session. When your session limit is reached, you are automatically logged out and shown a summary of your session activity. Re-login is possible after a defined cooling period.

Time-Out Periods

Take a structured break from gaming for a defined period: 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, 2 weeks, or 1 month. During a time-out, your account is fully suspended — no deposits, no wagers, no logins. All time-outs can be initiated in minutes via our support team.

Self-Exclusion

Request a voluntary self-exclusion for a minimum of 6 months, up to 5 years, or permanently. During self-exclusion, your account is locked, you are removed from all marketing lists, and you cannot create a new account. Any open bets are voided and funds returned.

Reality Check Alerts

Enable periodic on-screen reminders that display total time in session, net balance change, and current date and time in WIB. Alerts can be set to appear every 30 minutes, every hour, or every 2 hours — keeping you grounded during extended play.

How Limits Work in Practice

Limits are applied at the account level across all game categories and payment methods — including BCA, BRI, BNI, Mandiri, OVO, DANA, and GoPay transactions.

Daily Deposit Limit

Restricts the total IDR / Rp amount deposited in a rolling 24-hour window from 00:00–23:59 WIB.

Instant Effect
Weekly Deposit Limit

Caps total deposits across a Monday–Sunday period. Resets automatically at 00:00 WIB every Monday.

Instant Effect
Monthly Deposit Limit

Applies across the calendar month (1st to last day). Ideal for players who manage household budgets on a monthly cycle — a common practice among Jakarta and Surabaya-based players.

Instant Effect
Net Loss Limit

Once your net losses reach the threshold you set, all wagering activity is paused until the period resets. Wins are counted against losses, so only genuine net loss triggers the cap.

Instant Effect
Increasing a Limit

Any request to raise an existing limit is subject to a mandatory 7-day waiting period before taking effect. This cooling period exists to protect players from impulsive decisions made during an active session.

7-Day Delay

Important: All financial limits apply across every payment method linked to your mau88 account — BCA, BRI, BNI, Mandiri, CIMB Niaga, OVO, DANA, GoPay, ShopeePay, and LinkAja combined. Limits cannot be circumvented by switching between payment channels.

Recognizing Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually and is not always obvious to the person experiencing it. The following warning signs may indicate that gaming has moved beyond healthy entertainment.

Spending more money on gambling than you can comfortably afford, or borrowing money to fund gaming sessions.

Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when attempting to reduce or stop gambling activity.

Chasing losses — continuing to bet in an attempt to recover money lost in previous sessions.

Gambling for longer than intended, repeatedly failing to stay within self-set time or money boundaries.

Lying to family members, friends, or colleagues about the extent of your gambling activity or losses.

Neglecting work, study, or family responsibilities — including during Ramadhan or Idul Fitri family gatherings — due to time spent gambling.

Using gambling as a primary coping mechanism for stress, anxiety, loneliness, or other emotional difficulties.

Continuing to gamble despite significant negative financial, relationship, or health consequences.

Feeling a persistent preoccupation with gambling — planning the next session, reliving past wins, or scheming ways to obtain more gambling funds.

You are not alone: Problem gambling affects people across all backgrounds and income levels — in Jakarta, Bandung, Medan, Makassar, and beyond. Reaching out is a sign of strength, not weakness. mau88 support agents are trained to handle these conversations with full confidentiality and without judgment.

Quick Self-Assessment

Answer the following questions honestly. If you answer "Yes" to two or more, we encourage you to contact our support team or consider activating a time-out or self-exclusion on your mau88 account.

1

Have you ever deposited more money than you originally planned to in a single session?

2

Have you tried to win back money you lost by placing additional bets in the same or a subsequent session?

3

Have you ever felt the need to keep your gambling activity secret from people close to you?

4

Has gambling ever caused you to miss work, neglect responsibilities, or reduce time with family or friends?

5

Have you experienced feelings of guilt, shame, or regret after a gambling session?

6

Have you ever borrowed money — from a bank, e-wallet credit feature, or personal contacts — specifically to fund gambling?

Reminder: This self-assessment is not a clinical diagnostic tool. It is intended to prompt reflection. For professional support, please contact our team at [email protected] — we can connect you with appropriate resources.

Strict 21+ Age Policy

mau88 enforces a mandatory minimum age of 21 years for all registered players. This is a non-negotiable requirement, enforced at multiple stages of the player journey.

Registration Gate

All players must confirm their date of birth during account registration. Any declared age below 21 will result in immediate rejection of the registration request. mau88 reserves the right to request ID verification at any point.

KYC Document Review

Before processing any withdrawal, every player must complete KYC by submitting a valid government-issued KTP (Indonesian National Identity Card) or passport. Our verification team manually reviews each submission to confirm age and identity.

Underage Account Action

If we have reason to suspect that a player is under 21 years of age, their account is immediately suspended. All deposits are returned to the original payment method (BCA, BRI, OVO, etc.) and any winnings are voided pending investigation.

Guidance for Parents & Guardians

We encourage parents and guardians to use parental control software to restrict access to online gaming platforms on shared devices. If you believe a minor has accessed the mau88 platform, contact us at [email protected] immediately.
