Player Protection

Play Smart.
Play Safe.
Play sagili Responsibly.

sagili believes that gaming should always be a form of entertainment — not a source of stress, debt, or harm. This page outlines the tools, policies, and resources sagili provides to help every Filipino player stay in control of their gaming activity at all times.

Our Commitment

sagili's Responsible Gaming Commitment

At sagili, we take responsible gaming seriously — not just because PAGCOR requires it, but because we genuinely care about the wellbeing of every player on our platform. Whether you're betting on PBA games, spinning slots, or playing live casino tables, sagili is built on the principle that the fun stops the moment it starts causing harm.

Problem gambling is a real issue that affects players and their families across the Philippines — from Manila to Cebu, Davao to Quezon City. sagili actively works to prevent gambling-related harm through a combination of player tools, strict age enforcement, staff training, and full compliance with PAGCOR's responsible gaming mandate.

If you ever feel that your gaming on sagili is getting out of hand, or if someone you know is struggling, the right time to act is now. sagili's responsible gaming tools are always available, always free, and always effective — accessible directly from your sagili account settings. Our 24/7 support team based in Makati is also ready to help, any time of the day or night.

Remember: sagili is entertainment. Keep it that way. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose. Never chase losses. Set limits before you start, and stick to them. These are the habits of a smart, responsible sagili player.

Player Tools

sagili's Responsible Gaming Tools

All of the following tools are built into every sagili account and available free of charge. Access them anytime from your Account Settings. No waiting period, no fees — just immediate protection when you need it.

Deposit Limits
Set a maximum deposit cap on your sagili account on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once a limit is in place, sagili will automatically block any deposit that would take you over your chosen threshold. Reducing a limit takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit is subject to a 7-day cooling-off period to protect you from impulse decisions.
Loss Limits
Define the maximum amount in PHP that you are willing to lose over a set period — daily, weekly, or monthly. Once your loss limit is reached, sagili will prevent further wagers for the remainder of that period. This tool is especially useful for players who want a hard financial boundary without self-excluding entirely.
Session Time Limits
Configure alerts that notify you when you have been playing on sagili for a specified duration, or set hard session time caps that automatically end your session. Research shows that time awareness is one of the most effective responsible gaming tools — particularly for live casino and slot players where time can pass quickly.
Reality Check
Enable periodic pop-up notifications during active play that show your net gaming position — how much you have deposited, wagered, won, and lost in the current session. Reality checks help players make informed decisions about whether to continue playing and are especially valuable during extended gaming sessions on sagili.
Cool-Off Period
Take a short break from sagili without committing to full self-exclusion. Cool-off periods can be set for 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, or 1 month. During a cool-off period, you cannot log in to your sagili account or place any bets. The cool-off cannot be reversed once activated — giving you genuine breathing room when you need it.
Self-Exclusion
Choose to temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from sagili. Self-exclusion locks your account immediately, cancels active bonuses, and prevents logins for the duration you choose — from 6 months up to permanent closure. sagili takes self-exclusion requests seriously. This is the most powerful responsible gaming tool available on our platform. See Section below for full details.
Know the Signs

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling doesn't always look obvious. It can start gradually — a few extra bets here, a bigger deposit there. Knowing the warning signs early can make a big difference. These are some of the most common indicators that gaming may be becoming harmful.

1
Chasing Losses
Placing bigger bets or depositing more money in an attempt to win back money you've already lost is one of the clearest signs of problem gambling. If you catch yourself doing this on sagili, stop immediately and use a cool-off or self-exclusion tool.
2
Gambling with Essential Money
Using money earmarked for rent, bills, groceries, or family needs to fund gambling activity is a serious warning sign. Gaming on sagili should only ever be funded with money you can genuinely afford to lose — never with essential household funds.
3
Hiding Gaming Activity
Feeling the need to hide deposits, winnings, losses, or time spent on sagili from family members or friends is a strong indicator that gaming has moved beyond healthy entertainment. Secrecy around gambling is one of the early signs that professional support may be beneficial.
4
Inability to Stop
If you find yourself unable to stop playing even when you want to, have set limits that you keep overriding, or feel restless or irritable when not playing, these are signs that gaming has shifted from entertainment to compulsion. Reach out to sagili support or a professional helpline immediately.
Self-Exclusion

How Self-Exclusion Works on sagili

Self-exclusion is sagili's most powerful responsible gaming tool. If you feel that you need to take a significant break from gaming — whether for a few months or permanently — sagili makes the process straightforward and immediate. Here's how it works:

1
Log in to your sagili Account

Access your sagili account and navigate to Account Settings. Look for the "Responsible Gaming" or "Player Protection" section in your account menu.

2
Select "Self-Exclusion"

Choose the Self-Exclusion option and select your preferred exclusion period: 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, or permanently. Consider carefully before selecting permanent exclusion, as this action cannot be reversed.

3
Confirm Your Decision

You will be asked to confirm your choice. Once confirmed, your sagili account is locked immediately. Any active bonuses are cancelled. Pending withdrawals of real-money balances will be processed in accordance with sagili's standard withdrawal procedures.

4
Confirmation & Support Contact

sagili will send a confirmation of your self-exclusion to your registered email address. During your exclusion period, sagili will also suppress any marketing communications to you. If you need support during or after your self-exclusion, contact our team at [email protected].

5
Reactivation After Temporary Exclusion

At the end of a temporary self-exclusion period, your sagili account will not reactivate automatically. You must submit a written reactivation request to sagili support, which is subject to a mandatory 7-day cooling-off period after the exclusion expires. This ensures the decision to return to gaming is deliberate and considered.

PAGCOR Responsible Gaming Programme

sagili operates in full compliance with PAGCOR's responsible gaming requirements. PAGCOR — the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation — oversees responsible gaming standards for all licensed operators in the Philippines. Players seeking additional support outside of sagili's own tools are encouraged to contact PAGCOR directly or reach out to Philippine-based problem gambling support organisations for professional assistance.

Age Verification Policy

sagili enforces a minimum age of 21 years on all accounts, consistent with Philippine law and PAGCOR regulations. Age is verified during registration and may be re-verified at any time, including:

  • Before processing a first withdrawal request
  • After a significant change in account activity
  • If there is any reasonable suspicion of underage access
  • As part of routine PAGCOR compliance checks
Self-Check

Quick Self-Assessment: Are You Gambling Responsibly?

Answer these questions honestly. If you find yourself answering "yes" to more than two or three of them, it may be time to use sagili's responsible gaming tools — or to seek professional support. There's no shame in asking for help. It's the smart move.

Have you ever spent more money on sagili than you originally planned to?
Have you ever deposited more money to sagili in order to try to win back previous losses?
Have you ever found it difficult to stop playing on sagili even when you wanted to?
Have you ever hidden your gaming activity or the amount of money you spend from your family or friends?
Have you ever used money meant for rent, bills, food, or other family needs to fund your sagili gaming?
Has gaming on sagili or any other platform ever caused arguments with your family, affected your work, or made you feel stressed or anxious?
Have you ever borrowed money from others — family, friends, or lenders — specifically to fund gambling?
What to do if you answered yes to any of these: Use sagili's built-in responsible gaming tools — deposit limits, loss limits, cool-off periods, or self-exclusion — to regain control. You can also contact sagili's 24/7 support team at [email protected] for confidential assistance. Acting early is always better than waiting until things escalate.
Smart Gaming Tips
  • Set your sagili deposit limit before you start playing each session.
  • Only gamble with money that is fully disposable — treat it like entertainment spending, not an investment.
  • Take regular breaks. Step away from sagili for at least 15 minutes every hour of play.
  • Never gamble when you are upset, stressed, tired, or under the influence of alcohol.
  • Accept that losing is part of gaming. Do not chase losses or increase your bets to recover them.
  • Balance gaming with other activities — sport, family time, social events around Manila or your city.
