Extra bonus believes that healthy online entertainment starts with self-awareness. We provide a full suite of control tools and practical guidance to help every Malaysian member play safely and enjoyably.
Extra Bonus's Commitment to Every MemberA Message from Extra Bonus
This page is one of the most important on the entire extra bonus platform. Responsible gaming isn't just a box to tick — it reflects how we respect every member as a capable, informed adult. We want you to play longer, play happily, and play in a healthy state of mind. Read through this guide, familiarise yourself with the tools we provide, and use them when you need to. There's no stigma here.
All these tools are accessible directly from your extra bonus account settings – no need to contact support
Set a cap on how much you can deposit into your extra bonus account per day, week, or month. Once the limit is reached, the system will not allow any further deposits until the limit period resets – even if you feel tempted to top up.
Daily / Weekly / MonthlyDecide how much you're comfortable losing in a single session or over a set period. Once your loss limit is reached, extra bonus will automatically stop your play for the duration you've specified. This helps you stay within your actual means.
Per session / Daily / WeeklySet a limit on how long you play in a single session. Extra bonus will send you a reminder when your time is almost up and will automatically end the session when the limit is reached. This is especially useful for players who tend to lose track of time while enjoying slots or poker.
Set in minutes / hoursNeed a break from gaming? The temporary break option lets you suspend access to your extra bonus account for 24 hours, 48 hours, one week, or one month. During this period, you cannot log in, deposit, or play — no exceptions.
24 hours to 30 daysIf you feel you need to stop entirely for the long term, the self-exclusion option lets you permanently close access to your extra bonus account, or restrict it for an extended period — from three months to indefinitely. This is a decision we fully support, no questions asked.
3 months to permanentFull transparency over your activity. Review your gaming history, deposits, withdrawals, and session durations in your extra bonus account at any time. Understanding your own playing habits is the first step towards gaming more responsibly.
Complete data in your accountAll these tools are accessible via Settings > Responsible Gaming in your extra bonus account. Limit changes that decrease limits take effect immediately. Changes that increase limits require a 48-hour waiting period before taking effect – this is a safety measure we have deliberately built in.
Setting gaming limits on extra bonus takes no more than two minutes. The process is designed to be as straightforward as possible so you can do it at any time — including before starting a session. Here are the steps:
Log In to Your Extra Bonus Account
Go to extrabonus.best and log in with your email and password. If you haven't registered yet, you can do so for free.
Go to Account Settings
Click the profile icon at the top right of the extra bonus platform, then select "Settings" from the menu that appears.
Select the "Responsible Gaming" Tab
On the Settings page, look for the "Responsible Gaming" tab or section. All of extra bonus's self-control tools are in one place here.
Choose a Limit Type and Set the Value
Choose a deposit limit, loss limit, or session time limit. Enter the limit value in Ringgit Malaysia (RM) or in minutes/hours as needed, then click "Save".
Confirm Your Limit
You'll receive a confirmation email from extra bonus. Limits that lower your existing limit take effect immediately. New limits that are higher take effect after 48 hours, for your added protection.
One of the best responsible gaming practices is setting a clear gaming budget before you start playing at extra bonus. Use this quick guide as a starting point:
As a general guideline, responsible gaming experts recommend keeping your gaming budget to no more than 1% to 3% of monthly net income. For example, if your net income is RM3,000 a month, a healthy gaming budget would be between RM30 and RM90 per month. This is entertainment money – money you can genuinely afford to part with even if you walk away with nothing.
Being honest with yourself is the foundation of effective responsible gaming
Extra bonus understands that online gaming can be deeply immersive – especially when you are spinning through free rounds on slots or sitting at a hot Live Casino blackjack table. In the excitement of the moment, it is easy to miss the signs that your playing habits are starting to shift in an unhealthy direction.
Here are some warning signs to watch for in yourself. This isn't a list meant to judge — it's a self-awareness tool that extra bonus shares sincerely because we genuinely care about the long-term wellbeing of every member.
You play longer or spend more than planned almost every time.
You try to chase your losses with additional deposits via Touch 'n Go or GrabPay, hoping to "win it back".
You hide your gaming activity or the amount you spend from family members or close friends.
Gaming consistently interferes with your work, studies, relationships, or daily responsibilities.
You feel restless, irritable, or stressed when you are unable to play for a period of time.
You are using money meant for other necessities – bills, food, or savings – to deposit into your extra bonus account.
You think about gaming obsessively – planning your next session or figuring out how to get money to play again.
You keep playing even though you know it's negatively affecting your finances, relationships, or emotional wellbeing.
If you recognise yourself in two or more of the signs above, now is a good time to use the limit or time-out tools in your extra bonus account. There is nothing wrong with taking a break. There is nothing wrong with asking for help. That is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Answer these questions honestly. If three or more answers are "Yes", extra bonus encourages you to use our self-control tools or reach out to our support team.
Have you ever felt the need to play with larger and larger amounts to get the same level of excitement?
Have you ever tried to stop or cut back on gaming but found yourself unable to, even when you intended to?
Have you ever used gaming as a way to escape from everyday problems or to ease feelings of guilt, anxiety, or stress?
Have you ever borrowed money or sold something to fund your gaming?
Have people close to you ever expressed concern about your gaming habits?
This questionnaire is for self-awareness purposes only and is not a clinical diagnosis. If you're concerned about your own gaming habits or those of someone you care about, please contact the extra bonus support team or consider speaking with a qualified mental health professional.
Some platforms bury their responsible gaming page in the hardest-to-find corner of their site — as though it's something to be ashamed of. Extra bonus takes a different approach. We place a link to this page in the footer of every page, we reference our self-control tools in our Terms & Conditions, and we actively encourage members to use them. Why? Because we believe players who game responsibly are happier and more loyal in the long run.
Online gaming – whether it is slots, Live Casino, poker, virtual sports like Liga Super Malaysia, or blackjack – is a form of entertainment. Just like going to the cinema, attending a concert, or dining out, it involves spending money for an enjoyable experience. The difference is that gaming carries an element of uncertainty that can make it more thrilling – but that same element is what makes it potentially problematic if not managed wisely.
Extra bonus understands this reality. We know that the majority of our members are casual players who enjoy gaming as a way to unwind and have fun — people who play slots while waiting for an EPL match to kick off, or who play live blackjack over a relaxed weekend. For most players, gaming stays firmly in the realm of healthy entertainment. But we also know that a small number of players may need additional support at some point in their journey.
That's why we invest in building self-control tools that actually work. Deposit limits aren't just numbers in a system — they're hard barriers that prevent you from depositing more than you intended, even in the heat of the moment during a session. The temporary break option isn't just a regular log-out — once activated, the extra bonus system ensures you cannot log back in for the duration you've set, even if you feel the urge to play again.
We also understand that problematic gaming habits are not always obvious from the outside. Someone who plays every day is not necessarily in trouble – if they play within comfortable limits, using money genuinely set aside for entertainment, without neglecting other responsibilities in life. On the other hand, someone who plays just once or twice a week can have a problem if every session ends with them spending more than they can afford and chasing losses with extra deposits through DuitNow or Boost.
The definition of problematic gaming is not about frequency or amount – it is about the impact gaming has on a person's overall wellbeing. If gaming consistently begins to affect finances, relationships, mental health, or work performance, that is a sign to take seriously. And extra bonus is here to help, not to punish or shame anyone facing this challenge.
One thing we always emphasise to extra bonus members is the difference between playing for fun and playing to solve financial problems. Gaming cannot and should not be seen as a financial strategy or a way out of debt. Casino game outcomes are designed with a house edge that ensures the platform remains profitable over the long run. This means that statistically, playing more and for longer does not improve your chances of winning — it actually increases your potential losses. Understanding this mathematical reality is the foundation of responsible and realistic gaming.
Extra bonus also takes an active role in identifying concerning gaming behaviour. Our system monitors gaming patterns and will suggest self-control tools to members who show patterns that may reflect high-risk gaming – such as a sudden increase in deposit amounts, unusually long gaming sessions, or a clear pattern of chasing losses. This is not about surveillance – it is part of our commitment to member wellbeing.
Finally, we want you to know that if you or someone you care about needs help with problem gaming, reaching out is a brave and smart thing to do. The extra bonus support team, available in Bahasa Malaysia, is ready to listen and help point you towards the right resources. You do not have to face this alone.
The extra bonus support team, available in Bahasa Malaysia, is ready to help with anything – including setting limits or answering questions about responsible gaming.
