At now bet, responsible gaming is not just a checkbox — it is a core part of how we operate. We genuinely care about the wellbeing of every Filipino player on our platform, from Luzon to Visayas to Mindanao. Our goal is to make sure that every session on now bet stays enjoyable, controlled, and within your personal limits.
now bet has built a comprehensive responsible gaming framework that includes player protection tools, age verification, staff training, and cooperation with Philippine regulatory authorities. We work within the PAGCOR regulatory framework and align our responsible gaming practices with internationally recognised standards.
We understand that for a small number of players, gambling can become a problem. That is why now bet makes it easy — not difficult — to set limits, take breaks, or permanently exclude yourself from the platform. No judgment, no hassle. Your wellbeing comes first.
All responsible gaming tools on now bet are available to every registered player at no cost, accessible directly from your account settings or by contacting our 24/7 support team.
Access to now bet is strictly limited to persons aged 21 years and above. This is not just a now bet policy — it is a requirement under Philippine gaming regulations. The minimum gambling age in the Philippines for casino-style gaming is 21, and now bet enforces this without exception.
During registration, every now bet applicant must confirm their date of birth and agree that they are 21 or older. now bet conducts Know Your Customer (KYC) verification for all accounts, which includes checking government-issued Philippine identification documents such as:
Any account found to belong to a person under 21 will be immediately suspended, all funds will be returned to the payment source, and the matter will be reported to the relevant authorities as required by law. now bet also reserves the right to request additional age verification at any time, even after initial registration.
Parents and guardians: If you share a device with minors, please ensure your now bet account is protected with a strong, unique password and that you log out after every session. now bet is not responsible for access by minors resulting from a player's failure to secure their account credentials.
Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of income, background, or how long they have been playing. The earlier it is recognised, the easier it is to address. now bet encourages all players to regularly check in with themselves and be honest about their gaming habits.
Common warning signs that gambling may be becoming a problem include:
If any of these signs sound familiar, please use the self-assessment tool in Section 4 and consider activating one of the player protection tools described in Section 5.
Answer the following questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to two or more, now bet strongly recommends speaking with a support professional or activating self-exclusion.
If you answered yes to two or more questions, please reach out to now bet support or contact a professional helpline. You are not alone — help is available.
now bet provides a full suite of responsible gaming tools that every registered player can activate at any time. These tools are designed to help you stay in control before a problem develops — not just after. You can access all of these through your account settings or by contacting our support team via live chat.
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you can deposit into your now bet account. Limits take effect immediately when reduced.
Define the maximum amount you are comfortable losing in a given period. Once reached, further play is paused until the limit period resets.
Set a maximum session duration. now bet will notify you when your time is up and automatically log you out if you choose.
Take a short break from now bet for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Your account is temporarily suspended and no marketing will be sent during this time.
Disable all promotional emails, SMS, and push notifications from now bet at any time through your account preferences.
Permanently or temporarily close your now bet account. See Section 6 for full details on how self-exclusion works.
Self-exclusion is the most powerful responsible gaming tool available on now bet. When you self-exclude, your account is closed and you will be unable to register a new account for the duration of the exclusion period. now bet takes self-exclusion requests seriously and processes them promptly.
How to self-exclude from now bet:
Cooling-off vs. self-exclusion: A cooling-off period is a short, temporary break (up to 30 days) after which your account automatically reactivates. Self-exclusion is a longer, more serious commitment. If you are experiencing significant gambling-related harm, now bet recommends self-exclusion rather than a cooling-off period.
