We accept deposits via DANA, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, and e-wallet. All of these services are subject to applicable local law.
This notice outlines our legal position, your responsibilities, and how we handle jurisdiction-related issues on booket. It is not legal advice, and we do not claim to know the laws of every territory. You must consult local legal resources to determine whether booket is accessible to you.
Service availability and your responsibility on booket
booket's services are available only where local law permits. We monitor access from different regions and may restrict or suspend services in territories where online gaming is prohibited. However, we cannot guarantee that our geolocation detection is perfect. It is your responsibility—not ours—to verify that you are in a jurisdiction where booket is legal to use before you register, deposit, or withdraw.
Many countries permit online sportsbooks but prohibit online casinos; others permit both; others prohibit all online gambling. Some jurisdictions restrict gaming but permit esports betting. Indonesia, the primary market for booket, permits sportsbook and live-dealer activity in certain contexts, but you must verify your local regulations. Cities like Jakarta, Surabaya, Bandung, Medan, Semarang, and Yogyakarta may have different legal interpretations of the same national law. We cannot advise you on your specific location.
Account eligibility and verification on booket
To register on booket, you must confirm that you meet local eligibility requirements. You must be of legal age in your jurisdiction (often 18 or 21). You must not be on any gambling account controls registry or banned-user list (though booket does not maintain such lists ourselves—we rely on your honesty). You must not be a resident of a territory where our services are illegal.
When you open an account on booket, you declare under penalty of perjury that you are eligible to use our platform under your local law. Our Know-Your-Customer (KYC) process—where we collect your identity card, proof of address, and selfie—is designed partly to verify your identity and partly to ensure you are not on banned-user lists or in prohibited jurisdictions. However, our verification is not foolproof. We rely on you to tell the truth during registration.
If we discover that you registered from a prohibited jurisdiction, we may suspend or close your account. If you are caught violating local laws by using booket, booket is not responsible for the legal consequences you face. We may be required to freeze your account balance and cooperate with law enforcement. We cannot return your funds if we are legally prohibited from processing payments in your jurisdiction.
Geolocation, access restrictions, and our efforts
We use geolocation technology (IP address mapping, device location data where available) to detect where you are accessing booket from. If we detect access from a prohibited jurisdiction, we may block your account temporarily. However, geolocation is not perfect—VPNs, proxy servers, and location spoofing can deceive our systems. We cannot guarantee non-specific info accuracy.
We do not encourage or assist users in circumventing geolocation restrictions using VPNs or similar tools. If we believe you are evading our access controls, we reserve the right to suspend your account, confiscate your balance, and report you to relevant authorities. Using booket through a VPN or proxy to access it from a prohibited jurisdiction is a violation of our terms and may violate your local law.
- Geolocation efforts: We use IP-based geolocation to restrict access from certain territories, but the technology is not perfect.
- Your obligation: You must not circumvent our access controls or misrepresent your location to use booket.
- Consequences of breach: Account suspension, balance confiscation, and potential legal referral are possible outcomes.
- Refunds for jurisdiction issues: If we suspend your account due to jurisdiction breach, we are not obligated to refund your balance.
Payment processing and local law
Our payment partners (DANA, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet for e-wallets; mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet for banks) operate under their own compliance regimes. If they detect that a transaction violates local law in your jurisdiction, they may block, reverse, or report it. booket cannot override their decisions. If your e-wallet or bank refuses your deposit or withdrawal, it is likely because they have identified you as being in a prohibited jurisdiction or engaged in restricted activity.
We are not liable if your bank or e-wallet provider blocks your transactions. Their compliance is separate from ours. If you are unable to deposit or withdraw due to payment-partner restrictions, contact them directly—we cannot force them to process your request.
Data, privacy, and legal process
Our privacy policy describes how we collect and use your data. However, we may be required by law to disclose your personal information, transaction history, and account details to government agencies, law enforcement, or regulatory bodies in any jurisdiction. We comply with lawful legal orders (subpoenas, warrants, regulatory requests). We do not resist such orders, and we do not notify you in advance if we disclose your data to authorities.
If you are investigated by your local government for using booket, we will cooperate fully with investigators and provide them with your account records, identity documents, payment history, game history, and IP logs. We do not claim user privilege or attorney-client protection. Our data is discoverable in legal proceedings. By using booket, you accept that your account information may be disclosed to government agencies without your consent if required by law.
