Need Help Right Now?

If you are concerned about your gambling behaviour — or someone else's — please contact our support team immediately via live chat or email at [email protected]. You can request a self-exclusion, deposit limit, or temporary account suspension at any time, 24/7. Acting early is always the right decision.

Gaming as Entertainment — Not an Obligation

Responsible gambling means approaching every session with a clear head, a set budget, and realistic expectations. At zc111, we do not just post this as a legal disclaimer and move on — our responsible gambling commitment is built directly into how the platform works.

The Pakistani gaming community deserves an honest platform. Whether you enjoy cricket betting on a PSL T20 fixture, live casino sessions in the evening, or a quick slot spin during a break — the purpose is entertainment. zc111 is designed to keep it that way.

We recognise that a small percentage of people who gamble can develop patterns that cause harm to themselves or those around them. Our role is to provide tools and information that help players stay in control — and to make it genuinely easy to step back when needed, without barriers or delays.

Remember: All gambling involves risk. There is no guaranteed return on any wager. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose, and never chase losses.

Safe Play Principles

1
Set a Budget Before You Start

Decide in advance exactly how much PKR you are comfortable spending — not borrowing, not a "maybe" amount. Once that budget is used, your session ends.

2
Never Chase Losses

Increasing your bets to recover losses is one of the most common patterns associated with problem gambling. If you find yourself doing this, stop immediately and use the cooling-off tool.

3
Time-Check Every Session

Set a session time limit before you start. Use your phone timer or activate the Platform's session reminder. When the timer goes off, log out — regardless of whether you are up or down.

4
Keep Gambling Separate from Life Priorities

Bills, family commitments, rent, and essential expenses always come first. If gambling is ever competing with those priorities, that is a serious sign to seek help.

5
Use Your Account Tools — They Are There for You

Deposit limits, loss limits, and self-exclusion exist specifically to help you stay in control. Using them is a sign of responsible play, not weakness.

Your Responsible Gambling Tools

Every registered zc111 account includes a full suite of responsible gambling controls. They are available in your account settings at any time — no waiting, no approval required to set a limit.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on the total PKR amount you can deposit into your account. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted for that period. Lowering a limit takes effect immediately. Raising a limit requires a mandatory waiting period before the increase comes into force — this is by design, to prevent impulsive decisions during a session.

Loss Limits

Define the maximum net loss you are willing to accept over a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Once your net loss reaches that threshold within the period, the platform will prevent further wagering until the limit period resets. As with deposit limits, reducing a loss limit is immediate; increasing one requires a cooling period.

Session Time Limits

Set an automatic alert that notifies you when you have been playing for a defined period — for example, 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours. When the reminder fires, the platform gives you a clear prompt to review your session and choose whether to continue or log out. You can also set a hard session cutoff that automatically logs you out.

Cooling-Off Period

A temporary break from the platform, available for periods ranging from 24 hours to several weeks. During a cooling-off period, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. This is designed for situations where you want a short-term break without committing to a longer exclusion. Contact support at [email protected] to activate.

Self-Exclusion

A permanent or long-term account restriction for players who need to stop gambling for an extended period. Self-exclusion takes effect immediately and cannot be reversed during the exclusion period — a deliberate safeguard against impulse decisions. Exclusion periods are available from 6 months upward, with permanent exclusion also available. To activate, contact support immediately.

Marketing Opt-Out

If promotional messages — bonus offers, match-day specials, or PSL cricket betting promotions — are triggering unwanted urges to gamble, you can opt out of all marketing communications immediately through your account settings. You will continue to receive transactional account communications but no promotional content.

All responsible gambling tools are accessible via Account Settings → Responsible Gambling. If you cannot locate a tool or need urgent assistance, contact our support team 24/7 via live chat or at [email protected]. Support is available in English, with Urdu assistance available on request.

18+ Age Restriction — Zero Exceptions

zc111 is strictly restricted to adults aged 18 years or older, or the higher minimum age required by the applicable operator or license jurisdiction — whichever is greater. There are no exceptions.

Age verification is conducted as part of the KYC (Know Your Customer) process for all registered accounts. For Pakistani users, this typically involves submission of a valid CNIC (Computerised National Identity Card). Accounts where age verification fails or where there is reason to suspect underage access are closed immediately and any deposited funds are returned where possible.

The 18+ threshold stated by zc111 does not constitute legal confirmation that gambling is lawful for users of that age in Pakistan. Pakistani users must independently assess their legal position under the Prevention of Gambling Act, 1977 and any other applicable local regulations. This is not legal advice.

Parents and guardians: If you share a device or mobile connection with minors, please ensure your zc111 account and any associated payment apps (such as Easypaisa or JazzCash) are secured with a password or PIN that minors cannot access. If you believe a minor has accessed a gambling account, contact support immediately.

Age Verification Process

1
Registration

You enter your full name and date of birth during account registration. The platform performs an initial automated age check against the information provided.

2
KYC Document Submission

Before processing your first withdrawal or when triggered by compliance checks, you submit a valid CNIC. The document must confirm that you are above the minimum eligible age.

3
Verification Review

The KYC team reviews your submitted documents. Accounts are restricted during this process if there is any uncertainty about age eligibility.

4
Confirmation or Closure

Accounts confirmed as meeting the age requirement are fully verified. Accounts that fail age verification are closed immediately and relevant data is handled per our Privacy Policy.

How to Self-Exclude from zc111

Self-exclusion is available to any registered user who wants to stop gambling for an extended period. The process is straightforward and takes effect immediately.

Exclusion Period What It Does Can It Be Reversed Early?
6 Months Account login, deposits, and wagering are blocked for 6 months No — must run its full duration
1 Year Full account restriction for 12 consecutive months No — must run its full duration
2 Years Full account restriction for 24 months No — must run its full duration
5 Years Full account restriction for 60 months No — must run its full duration
Permanent Account permanently closed and marked as self-excluded No — permanent and irreversible

Important: Self-exclusion takes effect immediately upon request. It is not reversible during the exclusion period — this is a deliberate feature designed to protect players who are struggling. Any balance in your account at the time of exclusion will be returned to your verified payment method.

How to request self-exclusion:

  1. Log in to your zc111 account and navigate to Account Settings → Responsible Gambling
  2. Select Self-Exclusion and choose your preferred exclusion period
  3. Confirm your request — you will receive an email confirmation that the exclusion is active
  4. Alternatively, contact support 24/7 at [email protected] and request exclusion directly — this method is available even if you cannot access your account

  • ✗ Account login is blocked
  • ✗ No deposits can be made
  • ✗ All wagering and gaming is disabled
  • ✗ All promotional marketing is stopped
  • ✗ Bonus offers are cancelled
  • ✓ Account balance is returned to verified payment method
  • ✓ Support team remains accessible for welfare queries
  • ✓ You can request further information about gambling support resources

Recognising Problem Gambling

Problem gambling rarely announces itself clearly. It tends to develop gradually. The following signs — in yourself or someone you know — are worth taking seriously.

💸
Spending Beyond Your Budget

Depositing more than you planned, using money set aside for bills, rent, or family needs, or borrowing money specifically to gamble.

🔄
Chasing Losses

Increasing bet sizes or returning to gamble shortly after a losing session specifically to try to win back what was lost.

🙈
Secrecy and Hiding Behaviour

Concealing gambling activity from family members, lying about time or money spent on gambling, or feeling shame about the amount you play.

😟
Preoccupation with Gambling

Thinking about gambling most of the time, planning the next session while in the middle of other activities, or finding it difficult to concentrate on daily responsibilities.

⚡
Using Gambling to Escape Problems

Gambling to manage stress, low mood, loneliness, anxiety, or difficult life circumstances — treating it as a coping mechanism rather than entertainment.

🚫
Inability to Stop Despite Wanting To

Making repeated attempts to cut down or quit gambling and finding it difficult to maintain — particularly returning to play during periods of stress or after a win.

Quick Self-Assessment

If you answer "yes" to any of the following questions, we strongly encourage you to use one of the tools above or contact our support team.

Q1
Have you ever gambled with money meant for household expenses, bills, or family needs?
Q2
Have you ever felt the need to bet increasing amounts to get the same level of excitement?
Q3
Have you ever tried to stop or cut down on gambling and found it difficult to do so?
Q4
Have you ever gambled to escape feelings of stress, anxiety, boredom, or depression?
Q5
Have you ever hidden your gambling activity or lied to friends or family about how much you spend or play?
Q6
Have you felt restless, irritable, or anxious when you have not been able to gamble for a period?
A single "yes" answer is worth acting on. Contact support at [email protected] or activate your self-exclusion through account settings.

Getting Help Beyond the Platform

zc111 can provide account-level controls and immediate access restrictions. For deeper support — counselling, addiction treatment, and structured recovery programmes — specialist organisations are better equipped to help.

If you are based in Pakistan, mental health and addiction support services are available through healthcare providers and community organisations in major cities including Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, and Peshawar. We strongly encourage anyone affected by problem gambling to speak with a qualified healthcare professional.

For users accessing the platform from the licensing jurisdiction, recognised responsible gambling support organisations are available. Details of the applicable jurisdiction's regulatory and support framework are disclosed in the Platform's licensing documentation.

Talk to someone you trust. Sometimes the first and most important step is an honest conversation with a family member, close friend, or trusted community figure. You do not need to wait until a problem is severe before asking for support.

zc111 Support — 24/7: Live chat is available around the clock. Email [email protected] for self-exclusion requests, limit setting, or responsible gambling queries. Urdu-language assistance is available on request.

Responsible Gambling Guidance Principles

Gambling should be entertainment, not income

Approach every session with a fixed budget and accept that losing is a possible and normal outcome. If you are gambling with the expectation of profit, that is a warning sign.

Take regular breaks

Step away from the platform regularly — between sessions, during a long day, and whenever you feel tired or emotionally heightened. Good decisions are made from a calm, rested state.

Keep gambling in its context

Gambling is one leisure activity among many. If it starts displacing family time, social relationships, work, or health activities, it has grown beyond its proper place.

Do not gamble when emotional

Gambling while angry, stressed, celebrating excessively, or experiencing significant life difficulties leads to impaired decision-making. Wait until you are in a settled, neutral state.

A Note for Pakistani Users

zc111 is an English-language platform serving Pakistani users. We understand that gambling occupies a legally complex position in Pakistan and that responsible use of this platform requires personal awareness of both the platform's rules and the local legal environment.

Legal status: Online gambling is subject to the Prevention of Gambling Act, 1977 in Pakistan. zc111 does not claim to be licensed, regulated, or approved by the Government of Pakistan, PTA, State Bank of Pakistan, or any provincial authority. Pakistani users must independently verify whether accessing this platform is lawful. This is not legal advice.

Financial awareness: Gambling losses involve real money — PKR amounts that represent actual purchasing power. Before depositing, assess what that amount means for your household budget. PKR 5,000 spent on gambling is PKR 5,000 not available for other needs.

Support in Pakistan: Mental health and counselling services are available in major cities — Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, and Peshawar. If gambling-related stress is affecting your mental health, please speak to a qualified healthcare professional.

Family and community: If a family member is concerned about your gambling, take that seriously. The people closest to you often notice changes in behaviour before you do. Open, honest conversation is a healthy first step.

Play Responsibly on zc111 — Your Controls Are Always Active

Set your limits before your first session, use the tools available in your account, and treat gaming as the entertainment it is designed to be. If you ever need help, our team is available 24/7.
