Our Commitment to Safe Play

At ph 1, responsible gaming is not just a policy — it is a core part of how we operate for every player across the Philippines.

Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit caps directly from your account settings. This tool helps you stay within a budget you are comfortable with, so gaming remains a leisure activity rather than a financial burden. Limits take effect immediately and can only be lowered — not raised — without a mandatory cooling-off period.

Session Time Reminders

Lose track of time? Our session timer sends you a notification after a duration you choose, reminding you to take a break and step away from the screen. Regular breaks are one of the simplest and most effective ways to keep gaming enjoyable and prevent fatigue-driven decisions. You can set your preferred reminder interval any time from your account dashboard.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a longer break, our self-exclusion tool lets you suspend your account for a set period — from 30 days up to a permanent closure. During exclusion, you will not be able to log in, deposit, or receive any promotional communications from us. We take self-exclusion requests seriously and process them promptly to protect your wellbeing.

Activity History

Transparency starts with visibility. Your account dashboard shows a full log of your gaming sessions, deposits, withdrawals, and wager history so you always have a clear picture of your activity. Reviewing your history regularly is a healthy habit that helps you stay aware of your patterns and make informed decisions about your play.

Age Verification

ph 1 strictly enforces the minimum age requirement of 21 years for all players in the Philippines, in line with PAGCOR regulations. Every account undergoes identity verification before any real-money activity is permitted. We have zero tolerance for underage gaming and will immediately close any account found to be in violation of this policy.

Dedicated Support

Our player support team is trained to recognise signs of problem gambling and to respond with care and without judgement. If you or someone you know is struggling, reaching out to our support team is always a safe and confidential first step. We can guide you toward the right tools on the platform or connect you with professional help in the Philippines.

Recognising Problem Gambling

Knowing the warning signs is the first step toward getting help. If any of the following sound familiar, it may be time to use our self-management tools or seek support.

  • Spending more money or time on gaming than you originally planned, and finding it difficult to stop even when you want to.
  • Chasing losses — continuing to play in an attempt to win back money you have already lost, which often leads to larger losses.
  • Neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities because of time or money spent on gaming activities.
  • Borrowing money, selling possessions, or using funds meant for essential expenses such as rent or food to fund gaming.
  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when you are not able to play, or using gaming as a way to escape stress or difficult emotions.
  • Hiding your gaming activity from family or friends, or feeling guilt and shame about how much time or money you have spent.

Where to Get Help in the Philippines

If you recognise these signs in yourself or someone close to you, professional support is available. The following organisations provide confidential assistance to Filipinos affected by problem gambling:

  • PAGCOR Responsible Gaming Hotline — the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation operates a dedicated helpline for players seeking guidance and referrals.
  • National Center for Mental Health (NCMH) — provides mental health support and counselling services across the Philippines, including for behavioural addictions.
  • ph 1 Player Support — our team is available to help you activate self-exclusion, set limits, or simply talk through your concerns in a safe and confidential environment. Contact us via the email listed in the footer below.
