Responsible play: 18+, deposit limits, self-exclusion, and helpline directory
PlayerzPot supports responsible-play mechanisms -- 18+ verification, deposit limits, self-exclusion, and time-outs. This hub explains each, the state-wise helpline directory, and how to get free, confidential support if fantasy play is affecting your wellbeing.
Fantasy cricket is a skill game played by adults. The platform enforces age verification and supports deposit limits and self-exclusion. If you need help, the helpline directory at the bottom of this page lists free, confidential support lines in India.
Age verification
PlayerzPot enforces 18+ at sign-up via PAN-based age verification. Users under 18 cannot create a real-money account. The platform does not allow accounts on behalf of minors.
If you are an adult who shares a device with a minor, set the app lock with a PIN. The in-app settings allow a PIN or biometric lock.
Deposit limits and time-outs
PlayerzPot supports user-controlled deposit limits:
- Daily limit. Caps deposits in a 24-hour window.
- Weekly limit. Caps deposits in a 7-day window.
- Monthly limit. Caps deposits in a 30-day window.
Time-outs are short pauses (1-7 days) during which sign-in is blocked but the account stays active.
Self-exclusion is a longer cooldown (1 month to permanent) during which the app blocks sign-in and contest entry.
