Important Notice: Gambling involves real financial risk and may not be suitable for everyone. q689 is strictly for adults aged 21 and above. If gambling is no longer enjoyable, or if you feel you are losing control of your spending, please use the self-exclusion and deposit limit tools described on this page, or contact our 24/7 support team immediately via live chat. Help is always available.

The q689 Responsible Gaming Commitment

Responsible gaming is not an afterthought at q689 — it is built into the platform from the ground up. Here is what that looks like in practice for every player in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and across Pakistan.

🔞
Strict 21+ Age Policy

q689 enforces a hard minimum age of 21 years for all registered players. Every account undergoes mandatory CNIC-based identity verification before the first withdrawal is processed, ensuring no underage person can access real-money gaming.

💰
Deposit Limit Controls

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits in PKR directly from your q689 account dashboard. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately. Increases to limits require a mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period before they apply.

⏸️
Session Time Limits

Choose how long each gaming session can last — from 30 minutes to several hours. When your limit is reached, q689 will prompt you to take a break. Regular session reminders help you stay aware of time spent on the platform.

🚫
Self-Exclusion Programme

If you need a break from q689, our self-exclusion tool lets you suspend your account for a defined period — from 30 days up to permanent exclusion. During exclusion, you will not receive any promotional communications from q689.

📊
Reality Check Reminders

q689 sends periodic reality check notifications during active play, showing you how long you have been playing and your net session result in PKR. These pop-ups are designed to keep your gaming experience grounded in reality.

🤝
24/7 Support Access

Our dedicated support team is available around the clock via live chat. Whether you want to set a limit, discuss a concern, or request account closure, a real support agent is always available — including on PSL match days and public holidays.

21+

q689 is Strictly for Adults Aged 21 and Above

The minimum legal age to participate in any real-money gaming activity on q689 is 21 years. This policy applies to all players across Pakistan — whether you are in Karachi, Lahore, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, or Peshawar. There are no exceptions.

During registration, q689 requires every new player to provide their Pakistani CNIC number. Before processing any withdrawal request, q689 conducts a full KYC identity verification that confirms the player's identity and date of birth against their CNIC. Accounts where age verification fails are immediately suspended and any balance held is frozen pending investigation.

Parents and guardians: If you believe a minor in your household has registered a q689 account using falsified information, please contact our support team immediately via live chat. We will suspend the account within 24 hours and investigate the matter fully. Protecting underage individuals from gambling harm is a shared responsibility.

Self-Exclusion & Account Control Tools

q689 provides a full suite of account management tools that put you in control of your gaming. These tools are available directly from your account dashboard, or can be activated by contacting support via live chat at any time — including at 3am on a Friday night during a PSL match, if that is when you need them.

1
Log in to your q689 Account

Access your account via the q689 Login page using your registered Pakistani mobile number and password.

2
Navigate to Responsible Gaming Settings

Find the Responsible Gaming section in your account dashboard — it is prominently placed, not buried in a sub-menu.

3
Choose Your Control Tool

Select deposit limits, session time limits, reality check frequency, cooling-off periods, or full self-exclusion — whichever suits your needs.

4
Confirm — Changes Apply Immediately

Restrictions take effect the moment you confirm them. You cannot reverse a self-exclusion or reduce a deposit limit until the specified cooling-off period has elapsed.

💬

If you are unable to access your account dashboard, our 24/7 live chat team can apply any of these restrictions on your behalf immediately — no questions asked, no delays.

Deposit Control
💳
Daily / Weekly / Monthly Deposit Limits

Cap the maximum amount you can deposit in PKR over any given period. Once the limit is reached, q689 will block further deposits until the period resets. Limit reductions apply immediately; increases require a 24-hour waiting period to prevent impulsive decisions.

Session Management
⏱️
Session Time Limits & Reality Checks

Set a maximum session duration, after which q689 will automatically log you out or present a prominent break screen. Reality check pop-ups during your session show elapsed time and net PKR result to keep you grounded.

Cool Off
❄️
Cooling-Off Period (7 to 90 Days)

Take a structured break from q689 for anywhere between 7 and 90 days. Your account is suspended for gaming purposes but remains accessible for withdrawal of any existing balance. No promotional emails are sent during a cooling-off period.

Self-Exclusion
🚫
Self-Exclusion (6 Months to Permanent)

If you need a longer break, self-exclusion closes your account to gaming for a minimum of 6 months, with options up to permanent closure. q689 will make every effort to honour your exclusion and prevent re-registration during the exclusion period.

Is Your Gambling Still Under Control?

Check any statements that apply to your recent gaming behaviour. This is a private self-check — q689 does not record or transmit your responses.

Tick any that apply to you

If you check three or more boxes, we strongly encourage you to use q689's responsible gaming tools or speak to a support agent.

Responsible Gaming FAQ

Log in to your q689 account and navigate to the Responsible Gaming section in your account dashboard. From there, select "Deposit Limits" and choose your preferred limit period — daily, weekly, or monthly — and enter the maximum PKR amount you wish to deposit within that period. The limit takes effect immediately. If you wish to increase a limit in the future, a mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period applies before the increase becomes active.

A cooling-off period is a short-term break of between 7 and 90 days, after which your account automatically reactivates. It is suited for players who want a structured pause without permanently closing their account. Self-exclusion is a more serious commitment — it suspends your account for a minimum of 6 months, with options up to permanent closure. During self-exclusion, q689 will not send you any promotional communications and will make reasonable efforts to prevent you from re-registering a new account during the exclusion period.

Yes. Self-exclusion restricts your ability to place bets and make deposits, but it does not freeze any existing balance in your q689 account. You may request a withdrawal of your available balance at any time during the exclusion period via live chat. Withdrawals are processed to your registered JazzCash, EasyPaisa, or bank account as normal.

q689 maintains a self-exclusion register linked to CNIC identity data. If a self-excluded player attempts to register a new account using the same CNIC, the new registration will be flagged and rejected. If q689 identifies that a self-excluded player has successfully registered a second account, both accounts will be suspended and any winnings accrued on the secondary account during the exclusion period will be forfeited in accordance with q689's Terms and Conditions.

Yes. q689 operates under an international gaming licence that requires operators to implement and maintain a comprehensive responsible gaming programme as a condition of holding the licence. This includes mandatory age verification, player protection tools such as deposit limits and self-exclusion, staff training on problem gambling indicators, and transparent responsible gaming disclosures. These are not optional — they are licence obligations that q689 takes seriously.

If you are worried about a family member or friend who may have a q689 account and appears to be gambling beyond their means, please contact our support team via live chat. While q689 cannot share account details with third parties due to privacy obligations, our support team can guide you on the steps available, including how to flag a concern formally. We also recommend speaking openly with the individual and encouraging them to use q689's self-exclusion tools directly.

q689's Ongoing Commitment to Safe Gaming

q689's responsible gaming programme is not static — it is reviewed and updated regularly in line with international best practices and the conditions of our gaming licence. Below is a summary of our core ongoing commitments to every Pakistani player on the platform.

Mandatory Age Verification on Every Account

No player may withdraw funds without completing CNIC-based identity verification confirming they are 21 or older. This is non-negotiable and is enforced on every single account without exception.

No Marketing to Vulnerable or Self-Excluded Players

q689 maintains suppression lists to ensure that players who have self-excluded, set cooling-off periods, or registered a concern with support are never targeted with promotional communications of any kind.

Staff Training on Problem Gambling Indicators

All q689 support agents undergo regular training to recognise the behavioural patterns associated with problem gambling and to respond appropriately — with empathy, not judgement.

Transparent Responsible Gaming Disclosures

The 21+ age restriction and responsible gaming messaging are displayed prominently across the q689 platform — on the homepage, footer, and all bonus and promotional pages — not buried in fine print.

Annual Policy Review Against Licence Requirements

q689's responsible gaming policies are reviewed at least annually against the requirements of our international gaming licence and updated to reflect any changes in best practice guidance.
