Our Responsible Gaming Tools

9piso provides a full suite of player protection features — because your wellbeing always comes first, no matter how big the jackpot.

Self-Exclusion

Request a temporary or permanent self-exclusion from 9piso at any time. Once activated, your account will be suspended and you will not be able to place bets or access promotional offers during the exclusion period.

Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits on your account to control how much money you fund your 9piso wallet. Limits can be lowered immediately, but increases require a 7-day cooling-off period for your protection.

Loss Limits

Cap the maximum amount you can lose over a set time period. When your loss limit is reached, 9piso will automatically prevent further wagering until the limit period resets — helping you stay within your budget.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum session duration so that 9piso automatically reminds you — or logs you out — when you have been playing for your chosen length of time. A great way to keep gaming a leisure activity, not a habit.

Reality Checks

Enable periodic reality check notifications that pop up during your gaming session, showing how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered. A gentle nudge to pause, reflect, and decide whether to continue.

Cool-Off Period

Take a short break from 9piso without fully self-excluding. A cool-off period of 24 hours, 48 hours, or up to 30 days can be activated instantly. During this time, your account is suspended and no marketing messages will be sent.

Playing Responsibly with 9piso

At 9piso, we believe that online gaming — whether it's slots, bingo, live casino, or fishing games — should be a source of enjoyment and excitement for Filipino players across Metro Manila, Cebu, Davao, Quezon City, and beyond. Responsible gaming means keeping it that way: playing for fun within your personal means, and never chasing losses or gambling money you cannot afford to lose.

The 9piso platform is designed with player wellbeing built in from the ground up. Every tool on this page is available to all registered players at no cost, accessible directly from your account settings. We encourage every member of the 9piso community to get familiar with these features before they ever need them — because the best time to set limits is before you start, not after.

Age Restriction Notice: Online casino gaming on 9piso is strictly for individuals who are 21 years of age or older, in accordance with Philippine gaming regulations. 9piso conducts mandatory KYC (Know Your Customer) verification for all accounts. Any account found to belong to a minor will be immediately closed and all funds returned.

Understanding Problem Gambling

Problem gambling is a condition where a person's gambling behavior causes harm — financial, emotional, or relational — to themselves or the people around them. It is not a sign of weakness or moral failure; it is a recognized behavioral health issue that can affect anyone. In the Philippines, access to support has grown significantly in recent years, and 9piso is proud to be part of a gaming ecosystem that takes this issue seriously.

Responsible gaming is not about telling you not to play — it is about helping you play in a way that stays enjoyable, affordable, and in your control. The moment gaming stops feeling like fun and starts feeling like an obligation, a compulsion, or a financial necessity, it is time to step back and seek support.

Warning Signs to Watch For

Not everyone who develops a problem with gambling recognizes it right away. Some early warning signs include: spending more than you planned on deposits, feeling restless or irritable when you are not playing, lying to family or friends about how much you gamble, borrowing money or selling belongings to fund your gaming, and continuing to play in an attempt to recover losses (chasing losses). If any of these sound familiar, please use the self-assessment questionnaire below and consider reaching out to a support service.

9piso Tip: Always set your deposit and loss limits before you start a gaming session. Treat your gaming budget the same way you would treat money spent on a night out — once it is gone, the session is over. Never use rent money, bill payments, or savings as a gaming fund.

PAGCOR and Responsible Gaming in the Philippines

The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) oversees regulated gaming in the Philippines and has established guidelines for responsible gaming that all licensed operators are required to follow. PAGCOR's responsible gaming framework includes player protection measures, self-exclusion programs, and public awareness campaigns. 9piso fully supports and operates in alignment with PAGCOR's responsible gaming standards.

If you have been self-excluded from 9piso and encounter any difficulties, or if you wish to escalate a responsible gaming concern to the regulatory level, you may contact PAGCOR directly through their official government channels.

Protecting Minors

9piso takes the protection of minors extremely seriously. In addition to our mandatory 21+ age verification process, we strongly encourage parents and guardians who share devices with younger family members to use parental control software to restrict access to online gaming platforms. If you suspect that a minor is accessing the 9piso platform, please contact our support team immediately so we can investigate and take appropriate action.

Self-Assessment Questionnaire

Answer these questions honestly to help evaluate your relationship with gaming. If you answer "Yes" to two or more questions, we strongly encourage you to use 9piso's responsible gaming tools or seek professional support.

1

Have you ever spent more money on gambling than you originally planned or could afford?

2

Have you ever felt restless, irritable, or anxious when trying to cut down or stop gambling?

3

Have you ever lied to family members, friends, or your employer about how much time or money you spend gambling?

4

Have you ever borrowed money, sold belongings, or used savings to fund your gambling?

5

Have you ever returned to gambling the day after a loss in order to try to win back the money you lost (chasing losses)?

6

Has gambling ever caused problems in your relationships, work, studies, or financial situation?

7

Have you ever felt like gambling is the only way you can relax, escape problems, or feel better?

8

Have you ever thought about or attempted to stop gambling, but found that you were unable to do so on your own?

This questionnaire is for self-reflection purposes only and is not a clinical diagnostic tool. If your answers concern you, please activate 9piso's self-exclusion feature or contact a professional counseling service. Help is always available — you are not alone.

Responsible Gaming FAQ

Common questions from 9piso players about our responsible gaming policies and tools.

Log in to your 9piso account and navigate to the Account Settings or Responsible Gaming section. From there, you can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits. Any reduction in your limit takes effect immediately, while any increase requires a mandatory 7-day waiting period to protect you from impulsive decisions.

Self-exclusion is a voluntary program where you request that 9piso restrict access to your account for a specified period — or permanently. During self-exclusion, you will not be able to log in, make deposits, or receive promotional communications. You can initiate self-exclusion through your account settings or by contacting our support team directly. We take this request very seriously and process it immediately.

For temporary self-exclusions, your account may be reopened after the exclusion period has fully expired. There is a mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period after the exclusion ends before account access is restored — this is to ensure your decision to return to gaming is a considered one, not an impulsive one. For permanent self-exclusions, account reopening is not permitted. We strongly encourage all players who have self-excluded to seek professional support before returning to gaming.

The 21+ minimum age requirement is mandated by Philippine gaming regulations and is in place to protect younger individuals from the potential harms of gambling. 9piso enforces this requirement through strict KYC (Know Your Customer) identity verification for all new accounts. Any account found to be registered by someone under 21 will be immediately closed, all associated funds will be returned, and the matter may be reported to the relevant authorities.

If you reach your deposit limit during a gaming session, 9piso will automatically block any further deposits until your limit period resets. You will receive a notification informing you that your limit has been reached. You can continue playing with any remaining balance in your account, but no additional funds can be added until the limit period expires. This is a firm system-level control, not just a warning message.

9piso complies fully with PAGCOR's reporting and data sharing requirements as part of our operating obligations. This may include sharing certain anonymized data related to responsible gaming metrics. Individual player data is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012. For more details on how we handle your data, please review our Privacy Policy.
