Gaming should always be fun — never a source of stress or financial hardship. At 87ph, we take responsible gaming seriously and provide every Filipino player with the tools, information, and support they need to stay in control.
At 87ph, we believe that online gaming is one of the best forms of entertainment available to Filipino players today — from the thrill of Tongits Go to the spin of the roulette wheel. But we also know that for a small number of players, gaming can become a problem. That's why responsible gaming isn't just a checkbox for us — it's a core part of how we operate.
We've built a suite of player protection tools directly into the 87ph platform, giving you full control over how you play. Whether you want to set a daily deposit limit, take a short cooling-off break, or permanently self-exclude, the tools are right there in your account settings — no waiting, no runaround.
Our customer support team is available 24/7 and trained to assist players who may be experiencing difficulties. If you're ever unsure about your gaming habits, we encourage you to reach out — there's no judgment here, only support.
Do you find yourself spending more money on gaming than you originally planned or can afford?
Are you chasing losses — depositing more to try to win back money you've already lost?
Has gaming started to affect your relationships, work, or daily responsibilities?
Do you feel anxious, irritable, or restless when you're not able to play?
Have you borrowed money or sold belongings to fund your gaming activity?
Do you hide your gaming activity from family members or close friends?
Every registered 87ph player has access to these responsible gaming tools directly from their account dashboard — no need to contact support to activate them.
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you can deposit into your 87ph account. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Limits take effect immediately when reduced.
Define the maximum amount you're comfortable losing over a set period. When your loss limit is reached, your account is automatically restricted from further wagering until the limit period expires.
Set a maximum session duration so the platform automatically logs you out after a defined period of play. This helps you stay aware of how long you've been gaming and prevents extended unplanned sessions.
Take a short break from gaming by activating a cooling-off period of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time, you cannot log in or place wagers. This is ideal if you feel you need a temporary pause.
Request a self-exclusion of 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. Self-exclusion is enforced at the server level — you will be unable to log in, deposit , or wager during the exclusion period. Permanent self-exclusion cannot be reversed. If you need this tool, please use it without hesitation.
Enable periodic pop-up reminders that show you how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered in the current session. A simple nudge to help you stay grounded and make conscious decisions about continuing.
Activating self-exclusion on 87ph is straightforward. You don't need to call anyone or wait for approval — the process is handled directly through your account. Here's how it works:
Access your account via the 87ph website or mobile app using your registered credentials.
Navigate to the "Responsible Gaming" or "Player Protection" section within your account settings dashboard.
Choose your preferred exclusion period — 6 months, 1 year, 5 years, or permanent. Read the terms carefully before confirming.
Confirm your identity and submit the request. Self-exclusion takes effect immediately. You will receive a confirmation email at your registered address.
If you have trouble accessing your account to self-exclude, contact our support team directly at [email protected] and we will process the exclusion on your behalf immediately.
Problem gambling can develop gradually and is not always easy to recognise in yourself. These are some of the most common warning signs that gaming may have moved beyond entertainment:
Regularly depositing more than you can comfortably afford, or using money set aside for rent, bills, or groceries to fund gaming sessions.
Continuing to play — or depositing more — specifically to try to recover money you've already lost, rather than playing for enjoyment.
Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when not playing, or using gaming as a way to escape stress, loneliness, or personal problems.
Concealing the amount of time or money spent on gaming from family members, partners, or close friends in Manila, Cebu, Davao, or wherever you are.
Missing work, neglecting family obligations, or letting personal relationships suffer because of time or money spent on gaming.
The vast majority of 87ph players enjoy gaming as a fun, social pastime — and that's exactly what it should be. Here are some practical habits that help keep gaming enjoyable and within healthy boundaries:
