Responsible Gaming
Gambling should be a form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Always play responsibly and within your means.
Age Verification
You must be at least 21 years of age to gamble in the Philippines. We strictly prohibit underage gambling and encourage all users to verify their age before participating.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you or someone you know exhibits any of the following signs, it may indicate a gambling problem:
- Chasing losses by continuing to gamble to win back money
- Hiding gambling activity or lying about time and money spent
- Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to gamble
- Feeling anxious, guilty, or irritable when trying to cut down
- Gambling to escape from stress, anxiety, or depression
- Inability to stop or control gambling despite wanting to
Self-Help Tools
Many casinos and online platforms offer tools to help you stay in control:
- Deposit limits – set a maximum amount you can deposit over a period
- Loss limits – cap the amount you are willing to lose
- Reality checks – receive reminders of how long you have been playing
- Self-exclusion – temporarily or permanently block yourself from gambling platforms
