// OUR COMMITMENT

Gaming is Entertainment, Not a Livelihood

At pinasgems, we believe that online gaming should be a form of entertainment — something you enjoy in your free time, like watching a game or going out with friends in Makati or BGC. It should never be seen as a way to earn money, solve financial problems, or escape from personal difficulties.

We take our responsibility seriously. pinasgems has built a comprehensive responsible gaming framework that gives every player the tools, information, and support they need to stay in control of their gaming activity. Whether you're playing slots, bingo, or live casino games, pinasgems wants your experience to remain positive and within your personal limits.

Our responsible gaming program is aligned with best practices in the Philippine gaming industry and the guidelines set by relevant regulatory authorities. We continuously review and improve our tools to ensure they are effective, accessible, and easy to use for all Filipino players — from Manila to Cebu to Davao.

Signs of Problem Gambling

Gambling may be becoming a problem if you notice any of the following:

  • Spending more money or time gambling than you intended
  • Chasing losses — betting more to try to win back what you lost
  • Neglecting work, family, or social obligations because of gambling
  • Borrowing money or selling belongings to fund gambling
  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
  • Hiding your gambling activity from family or friends
  • Using gambling to cope with stress, depression, or loneliness

If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, pinasgems encourages you to use our responsible gaming tools or reach out to our support team immediately. Help is always available — no judgment, no waiting.

// AGE POLICY

Strictly 21 Years and Above

21+

In the Philippines, the legal age for participating in casino-style gambling is 21 years old. pinasgems strictly enforces this age restriction across all games and services on the Platform.

All new pinasgems players are required to complete identity verification (KYC) before they can deposit funds or play real-money games. This process verifies your age using a valid Philippine government-issued ID — such as a passport, driver's license, SSS ID, or PhilHealth ID.

Any account found to belong to a person under 21 years of age will be immediately suspended, all funds will be returned, and the matter may be reported to the relevant authorities. pinasgems also strongly encourages parents and guardians to use parental control software to prevent minors from accessing online gaming platforms.

// PLAYER PROTECTION TOOLS

Your pinasgems Safety Toolkit

pinasgems gives you real, practical tools to manage your gaming. All tools are available directly from your pinasgems account — free, instant, and no questions asked.

💰
Deposit Limits

Set a maximum amount you can deposit into your pinasgems account per day, week, or month. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Lowering your limit takes effect immediately; increasing it requires a 24-hour cooling-off period.

⏱️
Session Time Limits

Set a maximum duration for each gaming session on pinasgems. When your session limit is reached, you'll receive a notification and be automatically logged out. This helps you stay aware of how long you've been playing and prevents extended, unplanned sessions.

📉
Loss Limits

Define the maximum amount in Philippine Peso (₱) you are willing to lose within a set period. Once your loss limit is reached, pinasgems will prevent further wagering until the limit period resets. This is one of the most effective tools for keeping gambling within your budget.

❄️
Cooling-Off Period

Take a short break from pinasgems without permanently closing your account. Choose a cooling-off period of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time, your account is suspended and you cannot log in, deposit, or play. Your account and balance are preserved for when you return.

🚫
Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a longer break or want to stop gambling entirely, pinasgems's self-exclusion tool allows you to permanently or temporarily close your account. Self-exclusion can be set for 6 months, 1 year, 5 years, or permanently. During self-exclusion, pinasgems will also suppress all marketing communications to you.

🔔
Reality Checks

Enable periodic pop-up reminders during your gaming sessions that show you how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered. Reality checks help you stay grounded and make conscious decisions about whether to continue playing or take a break.

All responsible gaming tools are accessible from your pinasgems account settings. To activate any tool, log in to your pinasgems account and navigate to Account > Responsible Gaming. Our support team is also available 24/7 to help you set up any limit or restriction.
