How do I activate deposit limits or self-exclusion on RS20?

You can activate deposit limits, time limits, loss limits, or self-exclusion directly from your RS20 account settings. Log in to your RS20 account, go to "Account Settings" or "Responsible Gaming Controls", and select the tool you wish to activate. All self-control tools can be activated on your own without contacting anyone – they take effect immediately or within a set period depending on the type of control selected. If you experience any difficulty, contact RS20's live chat support and our team will assist you within minutes.

If I apply for self-exclusion, can I cancel it early?

For short-term self-exclusion (a cool-off period from 24 hours to 6 weeks), cancellation before the period ends automatically is not permitted — this is by design, to protect you. For longer-term self-exclusion (6 months to 12 months), a review process with a waiting period is required before your account can be reactivated. Permanent self-exclusion is final and cannot be reversed. RS20 enforces this strictly, because the purpose of self-exclusion is to give you the genuine space you need to recover and reassess your gaming habits.

Is the money in my RS20 account safe during a self-exclusion period?

Yes, the funds in your RS20 account remain fully secure during a self-exclusion period. The funds cannot be used for gameplay during the exclusion period, but they remain in your account. Once the exclusion period ends (for short- and medium-term cases), you may withdraw the balance or resume using your account. If you wish to withdraw your balance while a self-exclusion is active, contact the RS20 support team at support@rs20.my and we will process the withdrawal in accordance with the established procedure.

I think a friend or family member has a gambling problem — what can I do?

Watching someone you care about struggle with a gambling problem is a painful experience. The most important first step is to speak with them openly, compassionately, and without judgement. Choose a calm, private moment to talk, express your concerns using "I feel..." language rather than "You always...", and listen to what they want to share. Encourage them to contact the RS20 support team to request self-exclusion, or to seek professional counselling. You can also reach out to RS20 support on their behalf for guidance on how to help. Remember — you cannot force someone to change; you can only offer support and a safe environment where they feel ready to ask for help.

What are deposit limits and how do they protect me?

A deposit limit at RS20 is the maximum amount you can deposit into your RS20 account within a set period – whether daily, weekly, or monthly. For example, if you set a daily deposit limit of RM50, the RS20 system will reject any deposit attempt exceeding RM50 on that day, regardless of whether you try to deposit via Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, DuitNow, FPX Maybank2u, or any other method. This limit ensures you cannot spend more than you have planned to set aside for entertainment, even in moments when you feel the urge to keep playing after a loss. You may reduce this limit at any time, but increasing it requires a 7-day waiting period – a deliberate safeguard to ensure the decision to raise a limit is made thoughtfully, not impulsively.

rs20 | Responsible Gaming and Safe Play Guide for Malaysia

1. What Is Responsible Gaming at RS20?

Responsible gaming refers to a balanced and mindful approach to enjoying online casino entertainment. At RS20, this means playing with full awareness of the risks involved, setting reasonable limits on the time and money you spend, and ensuring that gaming never takes priority over the essentials of daily life — such as food, utility bills, or family responsibilities.

For most RS20 players in Malaysia — whether they play slots like Dragon Hatch during an afternoon break or enjoy live casino games like Live Big Small on weekends — gaming remains a fun form of entertainment without any issues. They play with disposable income they can afford to spend, enjoy the experience, and stop whenever they choose. This is the right way to enjoy the RS20 platform.

That said, RS20 also recognises that circumstances can change. Financial pressure, personal problems, or certain thought patterns can lead someone to start relying on gaming as an escape – and that is a warning sign that must not be ignored. That is why we have invested in building a comprehensive responsible gaming toolkit, and why we have taken the time to write this page with the seriousness and detail it deserves.

💡 RS20 Simple Definition: Responsible gaming means you play for fun, not to solve financial problems. You set limits before you start and stick to them. You play with disposable money — not funds meant for TNB bills, rent, or food. If you follow these simple principles, gaming is far more likely to remain an enjoyable experience for you.

2. Self-Control Tools Provided by RS20

RS20 provides six key tools that you can access directly from your account settings to manage your gaming experience. All of these tools are free, easy to use, and take effect immediately or within the timeframe set by the RS20 system:

💰

Deposit Limit

Set a maximum daily deposit (e.g. RM100/day), weekly deposit (e.g. RM500/week), or monthly deposit (e.g. RM1,500/month). The RS20 system will automatically reject any deposit that exceeds these limits. You may reduce your limit at any time, but increasing a limit requires a 7-day waiting period before it takes effect.

📉

Loss Limit

Set the maximum amount you are willing to lose within a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Once the loss limit is reached, you will no longer be able to place new bets during that period, protecting your account balance from unplanned losses.

⏱️

Session Time Limits

Set a limit on how long you can play in a single session (e.g. 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours). Once the time limit is reached, RS20 will display a reminder and offer the option to continue or end the session. Stricter time limits will automatically end the session.

🔔

Real-Time Reminders

Enable real-time notifications that remind you every 30 minutes, 1 hour, or at whatever interval you choose during a gaming session. These reminders help you stay aware of how long you've been playing without disrupting your enjoyment.

❄️

Cool-Off Period

Take a short break of anywhere from 24 hours to 6 weeks without permanently closing your RS20 account. During a cool-off period, your account will be temporarily suspended. This option is ideal if you feel you need a brief pause from gaming to clear your head.

🚫

Permanent Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need to stop playing altogether, RS20 offers long-term self-exclusion options ranging from 6 months to permanent exclusion. These cannot be reversed during the chosen period, and permanent exclusion requests are processed on an irreversible basis.

To access all these self-control tools, log in to your RS20 account, go to "Account Settings" or "Game Controls", and select the tool you wish to activate. If you have any difficulty activating any of these tools, please contact the RS20 support team via live chat and we will assist you right away.

3. Warning Signs of Problem Gaming

Problem gambling rarely appears overnight. It typically develops gradually, and the person involved is often the last to recognise it in the early stages. The following are warning signs that RS20 wants you to be aware of – in yourself or in someone you care about:

1

Playing with money set aside for essential needs You are dipping into money set aside for TNB utility bills, rent, food, or other basic necessities to play at RS20. This is an extremely serious warning sign that demands immediate action.

2

Chasing losses You continue playing or increase your bet size in an attempt to recover money you have already lost, rather than playing for enjoyment. This is a dangerous behaviour that can lead to even greater losses.

3

Unable to stop even when you want to You feel compelled to keep playing even after you've already decided to stop. The inability to control your playing time is a clear sign of an issue that needs to be addressed.

4

Hiding gaming habits from loved ones You are being dishonest with your partner, family members, or friends about how often or how much you play at RS20. The need to hide your gaming habits is a clear sign that something is not right.

5

Gaming is affecting work, studies, or relationships Work or academic performance is declining, or relationships with loved ones are becoming strained due to the excessive amount of time and attention spent on online casino gaming.

6

Borrowing money or selling assets to play You are borrowing money from friends, family members, or through personal loans — or selling valuables — to fund your play at RS20. This is a critical warning sign that requires immediate help.

7

Feeling anxious or irritable when not playing You feel anxious, restless, or irritable when you are unable to access the RS20 platform. An emotional dependence on gaming is a sign that warrants serious attention.

8

Using gaming as an escape from problems You find yourself playing as a way to escape work stress, relationship issues, financial worries, or sadness — rather than to enjoy the game itself.

⚠️ From RS20: If you identify two or more of the above signs in yourself, now is the right time to take action. Start by activating RS20's self-control tools, and consider speaking with our support team or seeking professional help. There is no shame in asking for help – it is a sign of strength and wisdom.

4. Self-Assessment – Are You Playing Responsibly?

Take a few minutes to answer these straightforward questions honestly. This is not a formal test — it is simply a personal reflection tool to help you assess your own level of play more clearly:

1

Have you ever played with money that was meant for daily essentials such as food, bills, or rent?

2

Have you ever tried to stop playing but been unable to stick to that decision for more than a few days?

3

Has someone close to you ever expressed concern about your gaming habits?

4

Have you ever hidden from family members or friends how often or how much you play?

5

Have you felt the need to increase your bet size to get the same level of excitement as before?

6

Have you ever played to "chase" and recover money you have already lost, rather than simply to have fun?

7

Has gaming ever caused you to neglect work, family responsibilities, or other important commitments?

8

Have you ever borrowed money or drawn on your savings to fund online casino gaming?

5. Healthy Gaming Guide at RS20

Below are practical guidelines that RS20 recommends to all Malaysian players to ensure your gaming experience remains enjoyable and healthy over the long term:

1

Set a Monthly Entertainment Budget

Before playing at RS20, decide how much "entertainment" money you can comfortably afford to spend each month — money you could lose entirely without it affecting your life. Think of it the same way you would budget for a cinema trip, a meal out, or any other leisure activity. Once that budget is gone, stop for the month.

2

Set a Time Limit Before You Log In

Before opening the RS20 platform, decide how long you plan to play – for example, 45 minutes or 1 hour. Set a reminder on your phone. When the time is up, log out without extending your session. This is an effective way to ensure gaming does not eat into time meant for family or a good night's rest.

3

Don't Play When You're Stressed or Emotional

Avoid playing on RS20 when you are feeling stressed, sad, angry, or frustrated. Negative emotions can cloud your judgement and increase the risk of making poor betting decisions. Wait until you feel calm and clear-headed before you play.

4

Understand That Gaming Is for Entertainment

RS20 is an entertainment platform — much like watching a Liga Super Malaysia or EPL match, or playing e-sports with friends. Winnings are a welcome bonus, not a reliable source of income. Understand and accept that casino platforms carry a long-term house edge.

5

Take Regular Breaks While Playing

Every 30 to 45 minutes, take a short break — stand up, drink some water, or go for a brief walk. Regular breaks help you stay aware of how much time has passed, prevent excessive immersion, and allow you to make clearer decisions about whether to continue or stop playing.

6

Maintain a Balanced Daily Routine

Make sure playing at RS20 is just a small part of your daily routine – not your main activity. Keep up with other activities you enjoy, such as exercising, playing badminton, spending time with family, or watching a series. A healthy balance is the key to a sustainable and enjoyable gaming experience.

6. Protection of Minors

RS20 takes the protection of minors extremely seriously. Our platform is strictly for individuals aged 21 and above, with no exceptions. The following are the measures RS20 takes to protect young people:

Mandatory age verification: All new RS20 members are required to submit valid proof of age (MyKad or passport) during the KYC process before they can make a deposit or withdraw winnings. Accounts that cannot verify a qualifying age will be suspended.
Underage account detection: RS20 uses an automated detection system that identifies indicators of potential underage users, and will carry out additional checks in suspicious cases.
Responsible reporting: If you become aware that someone under the age of 21 is using the RS20 platform, please report it to our support team immediately via live chat or email at [email protected]. We will take prompt action.

Guide for Parents & Guardians:

If you share a device with children or underage dependants, RS20 encourages you to take the following steps to ensure they cannot access the RS20 platform:

Enable the parental control features available on your Android smartphone or iPhone
Do not save your RS20 login credentials on the browser of a shared device
Log out of your RS20 account every time you finish using the platform on a shared device
Use a strong password to lock your device when it is not in use
Have open conversations with your children about the risks of gambling and why it is strictly for adults

7. How to Get Help — You Don't Have to Face This Alone

If you feel that online casino gaming is starting to become a problem — or if someone you care about appears to be struggling with it — know that help is available and there is no shame in asking for it. Many people in Malaysia have successfully overcome gambling problems with the right support.

RS20 24/7 Support

Reach out to the RS20 support team via live chat within the platform at any time. We can help you activate self-exclusion, answer questions about self-control tools, and provide information on available support resources.

RS20 Email

Email us at [email protected] for self-exclusion requests or any enquiries related to responsible gaming. We will respond within 24 hours with the assistance you need.

Instant Self-Exclusion

If you need to stop playing right now, contact RS20 support via live chat and request an "immediate self-exclusion". Our team will process your request as a top priority within minutes.

💚 Keep this in mind: Asking for help is not a sign of weakness. It is a sign that you care about yourself and the people you love. RS20 will always respect your decision to stop playing or take a break, regardless of how long you have been a member or how much you have won. Your well-being matters far more than any win or any amount of money.

📖 A Deeper Look – Understanding Responsible Gaming in Greater Depth

There's a misconception RS20 often hears from new players — that this responsible gaming page exists purely to satisfy a legal requirement. The truth is far more personal than that. We know that behind every membership number in the RS20 system is a real person — perhaps a factory worker in Shah Alam who enjoys Dragon Hatch slots after a night shift, or a housewife in Penang who plays Live Big Small on weekends to unwind. We want every one of them to go home smiling, not burdened.

Problem gambling can affect anyone – regardless of background, education, or financial status. The pressures of modern life in Malaysia – rising living costs, work stress, relationship challenges – can drive people to seek an escape, and online casino gaming sometimes becomes one of those outlets. The issue isn't the game itself, but when gaming starts to be used as a coping mechanism for emotional or financial problems rather than purely as entertainment.

One thing RS20 wants to highlight is the habit of "chasing losses" – this is one of the most dangerous patterns in problem gambling. When someone loses, the human brain naturally tends to think that "a win is just around the corner" and pushes them to keep playing or raise their bets. This is statistically flawed thinking – every spin in slots or every session in live casino is independent of the one before it. There is no guaranteed "hot streak" or "winning turn" after a losing run. When you find yourself playing with a "let me win it back first" mindset – that is the moment to stop immediately, take a breath, and reconsider.

Many responsible RS20 players have their own effective ways of staying in control. Some set simple rules like "no more than RM50 in a single session" or "weekends only". Others only play with disposable income after all bills and savings are settled — never touching money set aside for necessities. Some play with a partner or friend as a social activity, agreeing on a limit before they start. All of these approaches work because they draw a clear line between entertainment and necessity.

RS20 also wants to speak openly about something that is rarely discussed – the importance of communicating with your loved ones about your gaming habits. Not so they can judge you, but so they can be your support system. If your partner knows you play at RS20 and the budget you've set for yourself, they can serve as an accountability partner who helps you stay in control. Conversely, hiding your gaming habits is an early warning sign that can lead to far greater problems over time.

Finally, RS20 wants to remind you that taking a break from playing does not mean you have "failed" or are "addicted". Sometimes life brings challenges that require you to shift your focus entirely to more important things – and that is a wise and mature decision. RS20's self-exclusion tool exists not to punish anyone, but to give you genuine control over your gaming experience. Use it confidently whenever you need it, and return to RS20 when you're ready – with a clear head, a defined budget, and the intention to have fun, not to solve problems.
