merdeka Jurisdiction Notice

We at merdeka operate an online entertainment platform offering sportsbook betting (Liga 1, Piala AFF, badminton, MotoGP, Premier League, Champions League), live-dealer games (blackjack, roulette, baccarat, Dragon Tiger), slots (Aviator, Sweet Bonanza, Gates of Olympus, Fortune Tiger, Mahjong Ways), and esports markets (Mobile Legends, Free Fire, PUBG Mobile). Our services are available only in jurisdictions where local law permits online wagering. We do not offer our services in jurisdictions where online wagering is prohibited or where merdeka is not licensed to operate.

This page outlines the legal boundaries of our service, your responsibility as a user to verify compliance with your own jurisdiction's law, and our commitment to operating merdeka within applicable regulations. Access to merdeka does not imply that our services are lawful in your location. It is entirely your responsibility to understand and comply with the laws of your jurisdiction before opening an account or making any deposit.

We encourage you to read this notice carefully. If you have questions about service availability in your area or about applicable local law, contact our support team through the merdeka platform or reach out to your local regulatory authority for guidance.

Service Availability and Jurisdiction Restrictions on merdeka

We do not offer our services in jurisdictions where online wagering is prohibited by law. We also do not operate in jurisdictions where we have not obtained the appropriate regulatory license or approval. The list of supported jurisdictions may change from time to time as we apply for new licenses or withdraw from regions where regulations become restrictive. We will announce major changes through our platform.

If we discover that your account is being accessed from or linked to a jurisdiction where we do not operate, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account without notice. Any funds in a suspended account will be held in accordance with applicable law; if not claimed within a specified period, they may be forfeited or transferred to a regulatory authority.

Our services are not targeted at users outside our supported jurisdictions. If you access merdeka from an unsupported location, you do so at your own legal risk. We make no representation that our services comply with the laws of your jurisdiction, and we are not liable for any penalties or legal consequences you may face for accessing merdeka in violation of local law.

Your legal responsibility on merdeka

Users are responsible for verifying that access and use of merdeka comply with the laws of their own jurisdiction. We make no warranty that our services are lawful where you are located. By accessing merdeka, you acknowledge this responsibility and agree to indemnify us against any legal claims arising from your use of our platform in violation of local law.

Account Eligibility and Age Requirements

To open a merdeka account, you must be of legal age in your jurisdiction. In most jurisdictions, this means 18 years or older; in some jurisdictions, the minimum age may be higher. You are responsible for determining the legal age in your jurisdiction and confirming that you meet that threshold before opening an account.

During registration, we do not ask for your age directly; instead, we verify your identity through Know-Your-Customer (KYC) procedures using government-issued ID. If your KYC documents show that you are below the legal age for your jurisdiction, we will close your account immediately and return any funds to your payment method.

We do not knowingly permit minors to access merdeka. If a parent or guardian believes their child has opened an account without permission, they should contact our support team immediately with the account username and a request to review the account for potential underage access.

No License Claim for Specific Countries

We make no claim that merdeka is licensed in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, or any other specific country. We do not advertise merdeka as "licensed in Indonesia" or any other jurisdiction. Our service may be available to users in certain regions based on our operational scope, but availability does not imply licensing in that region.

If you are resident in Jakarta, Surabaya, Bandung, Medan, Semarang, or any other Indonesian city, you are responsible for verifying with a local legal professional whether your use of merdeka complies with Indonesian law. We strongly recommend that you seek local legal advice before opening an account or depositing funds.

Payment Methods and Local Regulation

We accept deposits and withdrawals via DANA, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet, and bank transfers (mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet). These payment methods are provided by independent service providers. We do not control their policies or compliance decisions. If your e-wallet provider or bank restricts transactions to or from merdeka, that restriction is at their discretion and outside our control. We cannot override restrictions imposed by payment processors or banks.

You are responsible for ensuring that your deposits and withdrawals comply with any local banking or financial regulations that apply to you. If your bank or e-wallet provider flags a transaction, you should contact them directly for clarification.

Data Protection and Cross-Border Transfer

When you open a merdeka account and submit KYC documents, your personal data may be transferred to and stored on servers located outside your jurisdiction. These servers may be in Southeast Asia, Europe, or other regions. By creating an account on merdeka, you consent to this international data transfer and storage. We protect your data using industry-standard encryption and access controls, regardless of where your information is stored.

For complete details on how we handle your data and where it is processed, see our Privacy Policy. If you have concerns about cross-border data transfer, you should consult with a local data-protection authority or legal professional in your jurisdiction before opening an account.

Dispute Resolution and Governing Law

Any disputes arising from your use of merdeka are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction where merdeka is registered or licensed. We do not enter into agreements to be bound by the courts or legal systems of other jurisdictions. If a dispute cannot be resolved through our internal support process, you may be directed to arbitration or to pursue claims in a jurisdiction of our choosing.

By creating an account on merdeka, you agree to this dispute-resolution framework and governing-law clause. If you do not agree to these terms, you should not open an account or use our platform.

Changes to Jurisdiction Status

Our operating jurisdictions may change over time as we obtain new licenses, withdraw from regions, or respond to regulatory changes. We will notify users of significant changes through the merdeka platform. However, we may suspend or terminate service in a jurisdiction without advance notice if required by regulatory action or legal order.

If service is suspended in your jurisdiction, we will arrange for withdrawal of any funds in your account. You will have a specified period to claim your balance; if not claimed within that time, your funds may be transferred to a regulatory authority or forfeited in accordance with applicable law.

Contact for Legal and Regulatory Inquiries

If you have questions about merdeka's licensing status, regulatory compliance, or jurisdiction restrictions, you may contact our support team through the merdeka platform. For official regulatory inquiries or complaints, you should reach out to the regulatory authority in your jurisdiction or the jurisdiction where merdeka is licensed.

We are committed to operating merdeka in compliance with applicable law. Users who believe merdeka is operating in violation of local regulations are encouraged to report their concerns to the appropriate regulatory authority in their jurisdiction.
