Terms & Conditions — hbdb Platform Rules
These Terms & Conditions govern your use of the hbdb online gaming platform. By accessing or using any part of hbdb, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these terms in full. Please read them carefully before proceeding.
These Terms & Conditions ("Terms", "Agreement") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("Player", "User", "You") and hbdb ("hbdb", "We", "Us", "Our", "the Platform"). hbdb is an internationally operated online gaming platform providing casino games, sports betting, and related services to eligible players in Bangladesh and other permitted jurisdictions.
Important — Please Read Before Proceeding
By creating an account, making a deposit, or placing a wager on hbdb, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age, that online gaming is not prohibited under the laws applicable to you in your jurisdiction, and that you have read and accepted these Terms in their entirety. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the hbdb platform.
18+ Age Requirement
Access to hbdb is strictly limited to individuals aged 18 years or older. Identity verification (KYC) is required before any withdrawal is processed. Accounts found to belong to underage users are closed immediately and deposits returned.
Single Account Policy
Each player is permitted one hbdb account only. Operating multiple accounts — whether personally or through a third party — constitutes a breach of these Terms and will result in the closure of all associated accounts and forfeiture of any pending bonuses.
Fair Play Obligation
Players must engage with hbdb games and betting markets in good faith. Any form of collusion, use of automated betting systems, exploitation of software errors, or manipulation of game outcomes is strictly prohibited and subject to immediate account termination.
BDT Transactions Only
All financial transactions on hbdb — deposits, withdrawals, balances, wagers, and winnings — are conducted in Bangladeshi Taka (BDT). hbdb does not charge currency conversion fees on standard BDT transactions via supported payment methods.
Privacy & Data
hbdb collects and processes personal data in accordance with its Privacy Policy. By accepting these Terms, you also consent to the processing of your data as described in the Privacy Policy, which forms an integral part of this Agreement.
Terms May Be Updated
hbdb reserves the right to amend these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated via platform notification or email. Continued use of hbdb following notification of changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

Governing Language
These Terms are written in English. In the event of any inconsistency between an English version and any translated summary or communication, the English text prevails. All formal correspondence with hbdb should be conducted in English to ensure accurate processing.
2.1 Amendments to These Terms
hbdb reserves the right to modify, update, or replace any part of these Terms at any time. Where a change is material — such as a change to withdrawal policies, wagering requirement calculations, or eligibility criteria — hbdb will provide at least seven (7) days' advance notice via in-platform notification or email to the registered address on your Account. Non-material clarifications or corrections may be made without advance notice. The "Last Reviewed" date at the top of this document will be updated on every change. It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically.
2.2 Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, Responsible Gaming Policy, and any applicable bonus terms, constitute the entire agreement between you and hbdb with respect to your use of the Platform and supersede all prior agreements, representations, warranties, or understandings of any kind relating to the subject matter herein.
Eligibility & Age Restriction
To open and operate an hbdb Account, you must satisfy all of the following eligibility criteria at the time of registration and at all times during which your Account remains active:
- You are at least 18 years of age. hbdb strictly prohibits access by persons under 18.
- You are accessing the Platform as an individual acting on your own behalf and not on behalf of any third party.
- You are not a resident of, or physically located in, a Prohibited Jurisdiction at the time of accessing the Platform.

- You have not self-excluded from hbdb or any affiliated platform under a Responsible Gaming self-exclusion agreement that remains active.
- You are of sound mind and are not acting under duress when engaging with the Platform.
18+ Only — Zero Tolerance for Underage Gaming
hbdb enforces a strict 18+ age policy. Any Account found — at any point — to belong to a person under 18 years of age will be closed immediately. All funds deposited by an underage user will be returned to the payment method used for the original deposit, less any amounts already wagered. Any winnings accumulated in an underage Account will be forfeited in full. hbdb actively uses KYC identity verification documents (National ID, passport, or other government-issued ID) to confirm the age of all Players before processing withdrawals.
3.1 Jurisdiction Responsibility
hbdb is an internationally operated platform. It is solely your responsibility to determine whether accessing and using the Platform is lawful in your jurisdiction. hbdb makes no representation that the services offered are legal in all territories. Players in Bangladesh access the Platform at their own discretion and are solely responsible for compliance with all applicable local laws. hbdb accepts no liability for any legal consequences arising from a Player's use of the Platform in a jurisdiction where such use is restricted or prohibited.
Account Registration & Verification
Registration of an hbdb Account is free of charge. You must provide accurate, complete, and current information during the registration process. You are required to update this information promptly if it changes. hbdb reserves the right to suspend or close any Account where registration information is found to be false, incomplete, or misleading.
4.1 One Account Per Player
Each player is permitted to hold one (1) hbdb Account only. Duplicate Accounts — whether registered using different email addresses, payment methods, device fingerprints, or IP addresses — are strictly prohibited. If hbdb detects duplicate Accounts, all but the earliest registered Account may be closed without notice. Any Bonus Balances held in duplicate Accounts will be forfeited. Real Money Balances in closed duplicate Accounts will be returned to the registered payment method of the primary Account after investigation.
4.2 Account Security
You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Account login credentials (username and password). You must not share your login details with any third party. hbdb will not be liable for any losses arising from unauthorised access to your Account that results from your failure to keep your credentials secure. You must notify the hbdb support team immediately if you suspect that your Account has been accessed without your authorisation.
4.3 KYC Verification Requirements
Prior to processing any withdrawal request, hbdb requires Players to complete KYC (Know Your Customer) verification. Documents typically requested include:
- A valid government-issued photo ID (National ID card, passport, or driving licence)
- Proof of address issued within the last three months (utility bill, bank statement)
- Proof of payment method ownership (e.g., screenshot of bKash or Nagad account confirming the registered mobile number)
- Selfie photograph holding your ID document, where requested
hbdb may request additional documentation at its discretion. Withdrawal requests will be held in a pending state until KYC verification is complete. KYC documents are processed within one (1) to three (3) business days in Bangladesh Standard Time (BST, UTC+6).
Why KYC Matters
KYC verification protects you as well as hbdb. It prevents fraud, protects against identity theft, ensures that winnings reach the correct player, and supports our commitment to responsible gaming by confirming player ages before funds are released.
Deposits & Withdrawals
All financial transactions on hbdb are conducted in Bangladeshi Taka (BDT). hbdb supports the following payment methods for both deposits and withdrawals:
Mobile Wallets
bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, SureCash. These are the primary recommended channels for Bangladesh players due to their instant processing times and widespread availability.
Bank Transfer
Dutch-Bangla Bank, City Bank, BRAC Bank, Islami Bank, Sonali Bank. Bank transfers may take one (1) to three (3) business days to process depending on the sending institution.
Cards
Visa and Mastercard. Card transactions are subject to the policies of the issuing bank. hbdb does not guarantee card acceptance for all Bangladesh-issued cards.
5.1 Deposit Rules
- Minimum deposit: ৳200. Maximum single deposit limits vary by payment method and are displayed at the time of transaction.
- Deposits are credited to your Real Money Balance promptly upon confirmed receipt by hbdb. Mobile wallet deposits are typically instant; bank transfers may take up to three business days.
- Deposits must be made from a payment account registered in your own name. Third-party deposits are not permitted and will be returned to the source account.
- hbdb does not charge deposit fees on standard transactions. Your payment provider may charge their own transfer fees; these are outside hbdb's control.
- hbdb reserves the right to request proof of deposit ownership (e.g., bKash transaction screenshot) before crediting funds where there is reasonable cause for security review.
5.2 Withdrawal Rules
- Minimum withdrawal: ৳500. Maximum single withdrawal limits are displayed within the withdrawal section of your Account.
- Withdrawals are processed to the same payment method used for the most recent qualifying deposit where technically possible, in accordance with anti-money-laundering best practice.
- Verified Accounts (KYC complete) receive bKash and Nagad withdrawals within fifteen (15) to sixty (60) minutes during normal operating hours. Bank transfer withdrawals may take one (1) to three (3) business days.
- Withdrawals are only available from Real Money Balances. Bonus Balances must satisfy applicable wagering requirements before they can be converted to Real Money Balance and withdrawn.
- hbdb does not charge standard withdrawal fees. Fees charged by the receiving payment institution are outside hbdb's control and are the responsibility of the Player.
- hbdb reserves the right to conduct enhanced due diligence checks on withdrawal requests over ৳50,000 and may request additional KYC documents before releasing funds. This does not affect standard withdrawal timelines for verified Accounts below this threshold.
5.3 Anti-Money Laundering Policy
hbdb operates in accordance with internationally recognised anti-money laundering (AML) standards. All deposits must be made from legitimate, player-owned sources. hbdb reserves the right to suspend a Player's Account, freeze balances, and report suspicious activity to relevant authorities where there is reasonable suspicion of money laundering, fraud, or other financial crime. Players are reminded that the Platform is intended for entertainment only — not as a mechanism for moving funds.
Bonus & Promotional Terms
hbdb offers a range of bonuses and promotions to eligible Players, including welcome bonuses, reload bonuses, free spins, cashback offers, and seasonal promotions aligned with the Bangladesh calendar (BPL season, Eid, Pohela Boishakh, Victory Day). All bonuses are subject to the general terms below as well as any specific terms communicated at the point of offer.
6.1 General Bonus Rules
- Bonuses are available to Players who have completed account registration. Specific bonuses may require KYC verification or a qualifying deposit before activation.
- Each bonus offer is available once per Player, per household, per IP address, per device, and per payment method unless explicitly stated otherwise in the offer terms.
- Bonuses cannot be transferred between Accounts, exchanged for cash without meeting wagering requirements, or combined with other bonuses unless explicitly permitted.
- hbdb reserves the right to withdraw, modify, or cancel any bonus or promotional offer at any time, with or without notice, where there is evidence of abuse or where continued availability would be commercially unreasonable.
- Decisions by hbdb regarding bonus eligibility, wagering calculations, and dispute resolution are final and binding.
6.2 Wagering Requirements
Unless an offer's specific terms state otherwise, the following standard wagering rules apply to all hbdb bonuses:
- Standard wagering requirement: 30x the bonus amount (e.g., a ৳1,000 bonus requires ৳30,000 in qualifying wagers before withdrawal).
- Wagering is calculated on net wagers (stakes placed, minus returned stakes from winning bets).
- Not all games contribute equally to wagering requirements. Slots typically contribute 100%; live casino table games contribute 10%; sports betting wagers contribute 10%. Game contribution rates are confirmed within individual offer terms.
- Bonus Balances expire if wagering requirements are not met within thirty (30) days of the bonus being credited to the Account. Expired bonuses and any associated winnings are forfeited without compensation.
- Maximum bet while wagering a bonus: ৳500 per round / per bet. Wagers exceeding this limit while a Bonus Balance is active may result in the forfeiture of the bonus and associated winnings.
6.3 Bonus Abuse
hbdb uses automated and manual systems to detect bonus abuse — including but not limited to: creating multiple Accounts to claim the same offer; using low-risk hedging strategies to meet wagering requirements while minimising genuine risk; colluding with other Players; or exploiting software errors. Where bonus abuse is confirmed, hbdb reserves the right to void all bonuses and associated winnings, close the Account, and permanently ban the Player from the Platform.

- Using automated betting bots, scripts, or software to interact with the Platform without prior written consent from hbdb.

- Registering an Account on behalf of another person without their knowledge and consent.
Fraudulent Activity
hbdb will report confirmed instances of fraud, identity theft, money laundering, or other financial crime to the relevant authorities. All balances in Accounts under fraud investigation will be frozen pending the outcome of that investigation. hbdb cooperates fully with law enforcement agencies and financial regulators in all jurisdictions where it operates.
Account Suspension & Closure
8.1 Closure by the Player
You may request closure of your hbdb Account at any time by contacting the support team via live chat or by emailing [email protected]. Prior to closure, any Real Money Balance remaining in your Account will be withdrawn to your verified payment method, subject to the standard withdrawal conditions described in Section 5. Active bonus balances and associated wagering progress are forfeited upon voluntary Account closure. Account closure requests are processed within two (2) business days.
8.2 Closure or Suspension by hbdb
hbdb reserves the right to suspend or permanently close any Account at its sole discretion, including in the following circumstances:
- Breach of any provision of these Terms or any associated policy.
- Provision of false, incomplete, or misleading registration or KYC information.
- Confirmed or suspected fraudulent, abusive, or criminal activity.
- Detection of a duplicate Account.
- Failure to complete KYC verification within a reasonable time when requested.
- A Player's Account being associated with a self-exclusion or responsible gaming restriction that the Player failed to disclose at registration.
- Regulatory, legal, or compliance obligations that require hbdb to restrict access to certain accounts or jurisdictions.
Where an Account is closed by hbdb for a breach of these Terms, Real Money Balances may be returned to the payment method of origin at hbdb's discretion, after deducting the value of any bonuses claimed and any losses established as resulting from fraudulent activity. Bonus Balances are forfeited in all cases of Account closure for breach.
8.3 Dormant Accounts
An Account is considered dormant if there has been no login activity for a continuous period of twelve (12) months. hbdb will contact you by email prior to applying any dormancy policy. Following notification, if no login is recorded within a further thirty (30) days, a monthly dormancy administration fee of ৳100 may be deducted from any remaining Real Money Balance until the balance reaches zero or the Account is reactivated. Reactivation is possible at any time by logging in and, if required, re-completing KYC.
Self-Exclusion and Account Closure
If you wish to close your Account for responsible gaming reasons — rather than a general closure — please use the self-exclusion tools available on your Account or visit our Responsible Gaming page. Self-exclusion closures are treated with additional care and are not reversible within the minimum exclusion period, even on direct request. This protects you during a period when you have determined that a break from gaming is in your best interest.
8.4 Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, hbdb's total liability to you for any claim arising from or in connection with your use of the Platform — whether in contract, tort, negligence, or otherwise — shall not exceed the total amount deposited by you into your Account in the thirty (30) days preceding the event giving rise to the claim. hbdb is not liable for any indirect, consequential, incidental, special, or punitive damages, including lost profits or loss of data, arising from your use of or inability to use the Platform, even if hbdb has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
8.5 Governing Law & Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with international online gaming standards. In the event of a dispute, Players are encouraged to contact hbdb support in the first instance. hbdb is committed to resolving all complaints fairly and promptly. If a dispute cannot be resolved through internal support channels within thirty (30) days, hbdb will cooperate in good faith with any independent third-party dispute resolution process. Formal legal proceedings, where applicable, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction agreed upon in writing between the parties at the time of dispute escalation.
