TH39's Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At th39, responsible gaming is more than a phrase on this page. It is a core value embedded in how we design our platform, make business decisions, and engage with every member in Malaysia.

We understand that most th39 players — whether they enjoy watching and betting on EPL matches, Liga Super Malaysia, badminton, or prefer spinning slots and playing Live Casino on weekends — are simply looking for good entertainment. And we want to make sure it stays that way for everyone.

Responsible gaming means playing for entertainment, not to solve financial problems. It means knowing when to stop, staying within limits you set yourself, and never wagering more than you can afford to lose. TH39 is here to make sure your entertainment experience stays comfortable and in your control.

Core Principles: Gambling should be treated as paid entertainment — much like going to the cinema or travelling — not as a source of income or a way to "chase losses".

TH39 Responsible Gaming Principles
  • Set a deposit limit before you start playing each session
  • Only gamble with money you can fully afford to lose
  • Do not try to "chase losses" after a losing streak — this is a dangerous pattern
  • Take regular breaks – avoid playing for hours on end without stopping
  • Do not gamble when you are feeling emotional or under stress
  • Never borrow money to fund your betting
  • Gambling does not guarantee winnings — outcomes are random
  • If you feel overwhelmed, use th39's self-exclusion tool

Th39's Responsible Gaming Protection Tools

Six tools we provide free of charge to all Malaysian members

Daily / Weekly / Monthly Deposit Limits

Set the maximum amount you can deposit into your TH39 account within a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Once the limit is reached, TH39's system will automatically decline any additional deposits until the new period begins. Limits can be decreased immediately, but increases are subject to a 7-day waiting period.

Loss Limits & Betting Limits

Beyond deposit limits, you can set a net loss limit — the maximum amount you are willing to lose within a given period. You can also set a maximum bet limit per single wager. Once these limits are reached, TH39's system will automatically block new bets.

Session Time Limit & Time Reminders

Set a session time limit to avoid playing for too long. th39 will display a reminder pop-up once you have played for the duration you set, showing the total time elapsed and your net session balance. This helps you stay aware of how much time you are spending.

Cool-Off Period

If you feel you need a break from the TH39 platform, use the self-break feature to block access to your account for 24 hours, 1 week, 2 weeks, or 1 month. During the break period, you will not receive any promotional communications or marketing emails from TH39.

Self-Exclusion

For stronger protection, the self-exclusion option allows you to close access to your TH39 account for a period of 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, or permanently. A permanent self-exclusion cannot be reversed for a minimum of 5 years. During this period, all marketing communications will be stopped entirely.

Reality Check & Activity History

Access detailed reports of your gaming activity at any time — including total deposits, amounts wagered, and net balance for each period. The reality check feature gives you a clear picture of your gaming patterns and helps you make more informed decisions about your use of the th39 platform.

Signs of Problem Gaming You Should Know

Gambling addiction or problem gaming can affect anyone, regardless of background or level of experience. It develops gradually and is often difficult to detect in its early stages. th39 wants to help you recognise these warning signs early.

It is important to understand that gambling addiction is a treatable mental health condition — not a sign of weakness or moral failing. Anyone experiencing responsible gaming difficulties deserves support and assistance, free from judgement.

Constantly short of money despite having sufficient income. Frequently borrowing from family, friends, or financial institutions to fund gambling or settle gambling debts. Selling personal items or assets. Neglecting bill payments, rent, or loan repayments because money has been spent on gambling. Stealing or committing fraud to obtain money for gambling.

Feeling anxious, irritable, or low when unable to bet. Only feeling excited or engaged while gambling. Using betting as an escape from problems, stress, or negative emotions. Lying to loved ones about how much money or time is spent on gambling. Feeling guilty after playing but continuing to do so anyway.

Needing to bet with increasingly larger amounts to feel the same excitement. Raising bet sizes especially after heavy losses. Spending more time on the TH39 platform than originally planned. Finding it difficult to stop playing even after deciding to do so.

Neglecting family, work, or school responsibilities due to betting. Personal and professional relationships suffering as a result of betting behaviour. Hiding betting activity from a partner, parents, or friends. Losing interest in hobbies or activities you once enjoyed. Withdrawing from social interactions and becoming increasingly isolated.

Remember: Recognising the problem is the most critical first step. If you identify with any of the signs above, please reach out to the th39 support team or a helpline immediately.

How to Use TH39's Responsible Gaming Self-Control Tools

Activating responsible gaming tools on th39 is straightforward and can be done at any time from your account. Here is a step-by-step guide:

1
Log In to Your TH39 Account

Access the th39 platform on your smartphone or computer using your usual login credentials.

2
Go to Account Settings

Click your profile icon in the top right corner and select "Account Settings" or "Responsible Gaming" from the dropdown menu.

3
Choose Your Preferred Tool

Choose from the list of tools — Deposit Limit, Loss Limit, Session Time Limit, Self-Break, or Self-Exclusion — based on your needs.

4
Set Your Limits

Enter a limit amount that works for you. For deposit limits, for example RM 200 per day or RM 500 per week.

5
Confirm & Activate

Click "Confirm" and your limit will take effect immediately for reductions, or within 7 days for increases.

Pro Tips: Set your limits before starting a gaming session, not during play. Decisions made with a clear head beforehand are almost always wiser than those made in the heat of the moment.

If you need to self-exclude immediately and are having difficulty doing it on your own, contact the th39 support team via 24/7 Live Chat or email at support@th39-win.com. Our team will process your self-exclusion request within 30 minutes, no questions asked.

Shared Responsibility – Players, Family & th39

Responsible gaming is a shared commitment. th39 plays our part through sophisticated technical controls, strict age verification policies, and comprehensive self-management tools. Players and their families, however, have an equally important role to play.

As a responsible th39 player, you are accountable for understanding the risks associated with Sports Betting and casino games, playing within your means, and making use of the self-control tools we provide. You are also responsible for recognising early warning signs if gaming begins to negatively affect your life.

To family members and friends — your role in helping to identify problem gambling in your loved ones is invaluable. Approach the issue with compassion and without judgment. Gambling addiction is a treatable condition, and family support is one of the most important factors in recovery.

How to Help a Family Member with a Gambling Problem

  • Speak to them calmly and with compassion — not when they are in an emotional state
  • Avoid making accusations or using shaming language — focus on the impact of the behaviour, not the person
  • Offer to accompany them in seeking professional help, such as attending counselling sessions together
  • Set clear boundaries — do not pay off their gambling debts, as this can make the situation worse
  • Look after your own mental health — seek group support for families of problem gamblers if needed

FAQ – TH39 Responsible Gaming

Answers to the most frequently asked questions

Log in to your TH39 account, go to Account Settings, and select the "Responsible Gaming" section.

If you are unsure which option suits you, the th39 support team can help you make the right decision.
