- Loss limits — stop play automatically if losses reach a threshold
- Session time limits — set a maximum play duration
Contact Maxim88's 24/7 live chat to set or modify your limits.

Gambling and the Law in Singapore
Online gambling is regulated in Singapore. The Casino Control Act governs casino operations. The Remote Gambling Act regulates online gambling services. Only operators licensed under these frameworks are legally authorised to offer gambling services to Singapore residents. Maxim88 operates under its own licensing framework — players should review the operator's licensing information before playing.
