Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion is a tool that allows you to voluntarily restrict your access to your Mostbet Nigeria account for a set period. Unlike a temporary cool-off period, which you may cancel before it expires, self-exclusion is a binding commitment that cannot be reversed until the chosen period has ended. This page explains how self-exclusion works, how to activate it, and what support is available to help you maintain control over your gambling.
Understanding Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion is a permanent or temporary ban on your ability to access your Mostbet Nigeria account and place bets. Once activated, you will not be able to log in, deposit funds, or participate in any betting or gaming activity on the platform. This is different from a cool-off period, which is a shorter break (typically 24 hours to 7 days) that you can cancel early if you choose. Self-exclusion is designed for players who feel they need a longer-term break from gambling and want a stronger commitment to staying away from the platform.
Self-Exclusion Periods
You can choose from the following self-exclusion periods when you activate your restriction:
- 24 hours
- 7 days
- 1 month
- 3 months
- 6 months
- 1 year
- 2 years
- 3 years
- 5 years
- Permanent (lifetime)
How to Activate Self-Exclusion
You can activate self-exclusion through your account settings or by contacting our support team. Follow the steps below based on your preferred method:
Through Your Account (Desktop and Mobile)
- Log in to your Mostbet Nigeria account.
- Navigate to Settings or Account Settings (usually found in the menu or profile icon).
- Select 'Responsible Gaming' or 'Self-Exclusion'.
- Choose your preferred self-exclusion period from the list.
- Review the terms and confirm your decision.
- Your account will be immediately restricted.
Via Email
Send an email to [email protected] with the subject line 'Self-Exclusion Request'. Include your account username, the desired exclusion period, and your full name. Our support team will process your request and confirm activation within 24 hours.
Via Live Chat or Support Channels
Contact our support team via live chat (available 24/7), Telegram, or phone. Inform them that you wish to self-exclude, specify your chosen period, and they will guide you through the process and confirm activation immediately.
What Happens After Self-Exclusion Is Activated
Once your self-exclusion period begins, the following restrictions apply to your account:
- You will not be able to log in to your account.
- All deposit functionality will be disabled.
- You cannot place new bets or participate in any gaming activity.
- You will not receive promotional emails, SMS, or push notifications from Mostbet Nigeria.
- Any open bets will be settled according to their normal outcome; you cannot cancel them.
- Your account balance will be held securely and will not be forfeited.
Your Account Balance and Funds
If you have a remaining balance in your account when self-exclusion is activated, you have the right to request a payout of those funds. The balance will be transferred to the payment method you used to deposit, or to another verified payment method on file. Payouts are processed within 3–5 business days. To request a payout, contact our support team via email at [email protected] or through live chat, providing your account details and preferred withdrawal method.
Cancellation and Duration
Self-exclusion cannot be cancelled or shortened before the chosen period expires. This is a key protection to ensure your commitment is honored. If you have selected a temporary period (24 hours to 5 years), your account will automatically reopen once that period ends. If you have chosen permanent self-exclusion, your account will remain closed indefinitely unless you contact us after a minimum of 6 months to request reinstatement, which is not guaranteed.
Multi-Operator Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion on Mostbet Nigeria only restricts your access to this platform. If you wish to self-exclude across multiple gambling operators, you may register with national or regional self-exclusion schemes. These services can help you block access to many licensed gambling sites at once.
International Self-Exclusion Registries
- GamStop (United Kingdom and some EU countries) – a free national self-exclusion scheme that blocks access to licensed online gambling operators.
- CRUKS (Netherlands) – the Dutch national self-exclusion register.
- ROFUS (Denmark) – the Danish national self-exclusion register.
- Other national registries may be available in your country; check with your local gambling regulator for details.
Device-Level Blocking Tools
In addition to self-exclusion, you can use third-party software to block access to gambling websites and apps on your device. These tools provide an extra layer of protection and work independently of any single operator's self-exclusion:
- Gamban – blocks access to gambling sites and apps on your device; available for Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android.
- BetBlocker – a free browser extension and app blocker that prevents access to gambling websites.
- GamBlock – software that blocks gambling sites on your computer or mobile device.

Can I cancel my self-exclusion before the period ends?
No. Self-exclusion cannot be cancelled or shortened once it has been activated. This is a binding commitment for the duration you have chosen. If you need immediate help, please contact our support team or reach out to a gambling support organization.
What happens when my self-exclusion period ends?
When your chosen period expires, your account will automatically be reactivated and you will be able to log in again. However, you will not receive any promotional communications during or immediately after your exclusion period. If you feel you need additional time away from gambling, you can activate self-exclusion again at any time.
Can I extend my self-exclusion period?
You cannot extend an active self-exclusion period. However, once your current period has ended and your account is reactivated, you can immediately activate a new self-exclusion period for any duration you choose. If you wish to extend before your period ends, contact our support team to discuss alternative options.
Can someone else access my account during self-exclusion?
No. Your account is completely locked and inaccessible to anyone, including authorized users or family members. Only you can request account reactivation after your self-exclusion period has ended.
Will I lose my account or my funds?
No. Your account and any remaining balance are preserved. You can request a payout of your balance at any time during or after your self-exclusion period. Your account data will be retained securely.
Can I create a new account to bypass self-exclusion?
No. Creating a new account to circumvent self-exclusion violates our terms of service and may result in permanent account closure and forfeiture of funds. Our systems are designed to detect and prevent this behavior. If you are self-excluded, you should not attempt to re-register.
