Our Commitment to Safe Play

At perawin, responsible gaming is not a checkbox on a compliance list — it's a core part of how the platform is built. We believe that every Filipino player deserves a gaming environment that is fair, transparent, and designed with their long-term wellbeing in mind, not just their short-term entertainment.

Gambling should always be an activity you do with money you can afford to lose, for entertainment purposes only. It should never be used as a way to earn a living, escape from problems, or recover money you've already lost. If you ever feel like gambling is causing stress, relationship issues, or financial hardship, perawin has the tools and the team to help you take back control — immediately, without judgment.

Our responsible gaming program covers three pillars: prevention (tools that help you stay in control before problems develop), intervention (early warning systems and support when patterns suggest a problem), and treatment (directing players to professional support resources available in the Philippines when needed).

perawin strictly enforces the 21-year minimum age requirement mandated under Philippine gaming regulations and applicable PAGCOR guidelines. Every new account undergoes identity verification before real-money play is permitted. Any player found to be under 21 will have their account immediately suspended and all funds handled in accordance with applicable regulations.

Could Gambling Be a Problem for You?

Honest self-assessment is the first step toward healthy gaming. Ask yourself the questions below. If you answer "yes" to two or more, consider using perawin's responsible gaming tools immediately — or reaching out to a professional support resource available in the Philippines.

Self-Assessment Checklist

Have you ever spent more money gambling than you originally planned?
Do you gamble to escape from stress, problems, or negative emotions?
Have you borrowed money or sold possessions to fund gambling?
Do you feel restless or irritable when you try to cut down or stop gambling?
Have you tried to hide your gambling from family or friends?
Do you find yourself chasing losses — betting more to win back money you've lost?
Has gambling caused problems in your relationships, work, or finances?

Two or more "yes" answers? You may be experiencing problem gambling. Please reach out to perawin support or contact a helpline. Asking for help is the bravest move you can make.
