Responsible Gaming
at gamepg
At gamepg, we believe that gambling should always be a source of entertainment — never stress, debt, or distress. Our responsible gaming program gives every Filipino player the tools, information, and support needed to stay in control at all times.
What gamepg Stands For
Six pillars that define how gamepg approaches player welfare — because a safe player is a happy player, and that matters more than anything else.
Strict 21+ Age Policy
gamepg strictly enforces the minimum gambling age of 21 years as required by Philippine gaming regulations. Every new registration goes through age verification, and any account found to belong to a minor is immediately closed. No exceptions, ever.
Deposit & Loss Limits
Players can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from their gamepg account settings. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a 7-day cooling period — a deliberate friction that protects players from impulse decisions.
Session Time Controls
gamepg lets you set session time reminders and hard session limits so you never lose track of how long you've been playing. Whether you're on a winning streak at slots or deep into a live casino session, your time controls stay active.
Self-Exclusion Tools
If you feel you need a break, gamepg offers flexible self-exclusion options ranging from 24-hour cool-off periods to permanent account closure. During self-exclusion, all marketing communications are stopped and login access is disabled — no loopholes, no back doors.
Reality Checks
Periodic reality check notifications remind you of how long your current session has lasted and your net win/loss position during that session. These pop-up prompts are designed to break the immersive flow of gaming and give you a clear, honest picture of your activity.
24/7 Support Access
Our dedicated player support team is available around the clock via live chat. If you're worried about your gambling habits — or those of someone close to you — our support agents are trained to listen, provide information, and direct you to professional help without judgment.

Full VisibilityIs Gambling Still Fun for You?
These questions are adapted from internationally recognized problem gambling screening tools. Be honest with yourself — this is for your eyes only.
If you answer "Yes" to two or more of these questions, gamepg strongly encourages you to use our self-exclusion tools or speak with a trained counselor. You are not alone — problem gambling is a recognized condition, and help is available right here in the Philippines.
Recognizing Problem Gambling
Problem gambling doesn't always look dramatic. It can creep up gradually. These are the common warning signs that gamepg wants every Filipino player to be aware of.
PAGCOR & Philippine Gambling Regulations
gamepg operates under PAGCOR's licensing framework. This means our responsible gaming commitments are not just company policy — they are regulatory obligations enforced by the Philippine government.
What PAGCOR Licensing Means for You
The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) is the government body that regulates all legal gambling operations in the Philippines. As a PAGCOR-licensed platform, gamepg is required to maintain and enforce the following player protections:
- Strict enforcement of the minimum gambling age of 21 years for all casino-style gaming activities
- Maintenance of a self-exclusion register and active enforcement of exclusion requests
- Staff training on responsible gaming identification and intervention procedures
- Display of responsible gaming information and support resources at all times
- Cooperation with PAGCOR audits and inspections of our responsible gaming processes
- Prohibition of credit gambling — gamepg does not offer credit facilities for wagering
- Reporting obligations to PAGCOR regarding player activity, AML compliance, and responsible gaming tool usage
For further information on PAGCOR's responsible gaming programs, players in the Philippines can inquire directly through PAGCOR's official channels. gamepg supports and encourages the use of all national responsible gaming resources.
Playing Smart at gamepg — A Guide for Filipino Players
Gambling at gamepg — whether you're spinning slots, playing bingo, watching a live dealer deal cards, or placing a sports bet on the PBA — is meant to be an enjoyable leisure activity. Like going to a concert, dining out in BGC, or watching a fight night at a sports bar in Makati, it's something you do for fun, with money you've already set aside specifically for entertainment.
The moment gambling starts to feel like a solution to financial problems, a way to cope with stress, or something you can't stop doing even when you want to, it has crossed the line from entertainment into something that needs attention. gamepg takes that line seriously, and our entire responsible gaming program is built around helping every Filipino player stay on the right side of it.
The Golden Rules of Responsible Play
Before every session at gamepg, keep these principles in mind:
- Set a budget before you play. Decide in advance how much you are comfortable losing — because losses are always possible — and treat that amount as the cost of your entertainment. Once it's gone, the session is over.
- Never chase your losses. Chasing losses is the single most dangerous habit in gambling. The odds don't change because you're on a losing streak, and betting more to recover losses almost always makes the situation worse.
- Set a time limit. Long, unbroken gambling sessions impair judgment. Use gamepg's session time tools to set a hard stop, and take regular breaks to eat, rest, and reconnect with the people around you.
- Keep gambling separate from your finances. Never gamble with your rent, utility bills, grocery money, or funds meant for your children's education. These are non-negotiable. Use a separate e-wallet — GCash or Maya — funded only with your entertainment budget.
- Don't gamble when you're emotional. Gambling under the influence of stress, alcohol, grief, or intense emotions significantly increases the risk of poor decisions and financial harm. Save your gamepg sessions for when you're in a clear, relaxed headspace.
- Treat wins as a bonus, not an expectation. All casino games have a house edge, and all sports betting outcomes are uncertain. Wins are enjoyable surprises, not guaranteed income. Plan for losses and celebrate wins without assuming they will continue.
How to Use gamepg's Self-Exclusion Tool
Self-exclusion is one of the most powerful responsible gaming tools available to gamepg players. It is free, confidential, and takes effect quickly. Here's how it works:
Log in to your gamepg account and navigate to the Responsible Gaming section of your Account Settings. From there, you can choose a self-exclusion period: 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or permanent exclusion. Once you confirm your choice, gamepg will:
- Immediately disable your ability to deposit funds into your gamepg account
- Prevent you from placing any bets or accessing any games on the platform
- Remove you from all gamepg marketing lists so you will not receive promotional emails or SMS messages
- Ensure any pending withdrawals of your existing balance are processed normally
If you need immediate help and cannot access your account settings, contact gamepg support directly via live chat and ask for self-exclusion assistance. Our support team will process the request manually on your behalf within minutes.
Support for Family Members and Loved Ones
Problem gambling doesn't only affect the person gambling — it affects families, relationships, and communities across the Philippines. If you are concerned about a family member or someone close to you, gamepg encourages you to:
- Have an open, non-judgmental conversation about your concerns when the person is calm and sober
- Avoid covering their gambling debts, as this can enable continued problematic behavior
- Reach out to gamepg support to report concerns about a specific account — we take welfare reports seriously
- Seek support for yourself through family counseling services, as living with a problem gambler is genuinely stressful and you deserve support too
gamepg support agents are available 24/7 via live chat to discuss welfare concerns. All reports are handled with full confidentiality and sensitivity.
Minors and the 21+ Rule
Philippine law sets the minimum gambling age at 21 years. gamepg strictly enforces this requirement across every aspect of the platform. During registration, all players must confirm they are 21 or older. During KYC verification, age is independently confirmed against government-issued identification such as a Philippine passport, driver's license, UMID, or PhilSys national ID.
Any account found to belong to an individual under 21 years of age will be immediately suspended, all funds will be returned, and the matter may be reported to PAGCOR in accordance with our licensing obligations. gamepg also encourages parents and guardians to use device-level parental controls to prevent minors from accessing online gambling platforms.
If you believe a minor has registered on gamepg, please contact us immediately at [email protected].
