Responsible Gaming
Gambling should always be a form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Set a budget you can afford to lose, stick to it, and never chase losses. If gambling stops being fun, it’s time to stop.
Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years old to gamble in the Philippines, or of the legal age in your jurisdiction. Underage gambling is illegal and harmful. We reserve the right to request proof of age and to close any account that does not meet legal requirements.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone. Ask yourself if you have experienced any of the following:
- Chasing losses – trying to win back money you have lost
- Hiding gambling activity from friends or family
- Gambling with money needed for bills, rent, or essentials
- Lying about time or money spent gambling
- Feeling restless or irritable when trying to cut down
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to gamble
- Neglecting work, study, or relationships because of gambling
If you recognise these signs in yourself or someone else, please seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools
Use the following tools to stay in control:
- Deposit limits – set a maximum amount you can deposit per day, week, or month.
- Loss limits – cap the amount you are willing to lose over a set period.
- Reality checks – receive reminders of how long you have been playing.
- Self-exclusion – temporarily or permanently block access to your account.
Most reputable gambling platforms offer these tools in your account settings. If you cannot find them, contact customer support.
