Acceptance of these Terms
By registering for an account, accessing, browsing, or otherwise using the Site, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms in their entirety, together with our Privacy Policy and Responsible Gaming pages. If you do not agree to any part of these Terms, you must immediately stop using the Site and close any account you may have opened.
Your acceptance of these Terms is legally valid in electronic form under the Electronic Commerce Act of the Philippines (Republic Act 8792). Continued use of the Site after any update to these Terms constitutes your acceptance of the revised version. The Operator will post the updated Terms with a new effective date to notify you of material changes.
These Terms are supplemented by our Privacy Policy, which governs the collection and processing of your personal data under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173), and by our Responsible Gaming page, which sets out the tools available to help you manage your gambling activity.
Eligibility and account
Age and location
You must be at least 21 years of age to access or use any gambling-related features of the Site. This is the minimum legal gambling age in the Philippines, strictly enforced under applicable Philippine law and the Operator’s licence conditions issued by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR). By using the Site, you represent and warrant that you meet this age requirement.
You are also responsible for ensuring that use of the Site is lawful in your jurisdiction. The Operator makes no representation that the Site or its content is appropriate or available in locations outside the Philippines. Access from jurisdictions where online gambling is restricted or prohibited is at your own risk and is not endorsed by the Operator.
Account responsibilities
You may register only one account per person. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to keep your account details up to date. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activities that occur under your account, whether or not authorised by you.
You must notify the Operator immediately at [SUPPORT EMAIL] if you become aware of any unauthorised use of your account or any other breach of security. The Operator will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to safeguard your account credentials. The Operator reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts found to be in breach of these Terms, including but not limited to instances of duplicate registration or provision of false information.
Use of the site and content
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, the Operator grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable licence to access and use the Site for your personal, lawful, and non-commercial purposes only. This licence does not include any right to resell or make commercial use of the Site or its content.
You may view and reference content published on the Site for personal use. You may not reproduce, distribute, publicly display, transmit, scrape, frame, or otherwise exploit any content from the Site — including text, data, images, graphics, software, or audio-visual material — without the prior written permission of the Operator or the applicable rights holder. Any unauthorised use terminates the licence granted under this section immediately and without notice.
Intellectual property
All content on the Site — including but not limited to text, articles, reviews, graphics, logos, layout, design, software, databases, and source code — is the property of the Operator or its licensors and is protected under the Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines (Republic Act 8293). All rights are reserved.
Third-party trademarks, trade names, service marks, and brand names that appear on the Site remain the exclusive property of their respective owners. Their appearance on the Site does not imply any affiliation with, endorsement by, or licence from those third parties beyond what is expressly stated.
No rights in any intellectual property are granted to you except for the limited use licence described in the section above. Any attempt to copy, modify, decompile, reverse-engineer, or create derivative works from the Site’s content or software without authorisation constitutes an infringement of the Operator’s intellectual property rights and may give rise to civil and criminal liability under RA 8293.

Acceptable use and prohibited conduct
You agree to use the Site only for lawful purposes and in a manner that does not infringe the rights of others or restrict or inhibit anyone else’s use and enjoyment of the Site. The following conduct is strictly prohibited:
- Engaging in any unlawful activity, including but not limited to fraud, money laundering, or financing of terrorism;
- Registering more than one account or using another person’s account without authorisation;
- Attempting to gain unauthorised access to any part of the Site, its servers, or any connected systems;

- Harassing, defaming, or threatening other users or the Operator’s staff;
- Posting or transmitting any content that is unlawful, obscene, or otherwise objectionable.
The Site does not promote offshore or Philippine Offshore Gaming Operator (POGO) platforms, which are permanently banned under Republic Act 12312 (October 2025), nor does it carry any e-sabong (online cockfighting) content, in accordance with the PAGCOR moratorium in effect since May 2022. Breach of any prohibition in this section may result in immediate suspension or permanent termination of your access to the Site, without prejudice to any legal action the Operator may take.
Third-party links and content
The Site may contain links to third-party websites, operators, or platforms for your convenience and information. The inclusion of any such link does not imply endorsement, approval, or control by the Operator of that third-party site or its content, products, or services.
The Operator is not responsible or liable for the content, terms of service, privacy practices, accuracy, or availability of any third-party site. Before using or relying on any third-party platform — including any casino or gaming operator to which this Site may link — you should review that platform’s own terms and conditions and satisfy yourself that it holds a valid PAGCOR or other applicable licence. You access third-party sites entirely at your own risk.
Disclaimers and limitation of liability
The Site and all of its content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis for informational purposes only, without warranty of any kind, express or implied. The Operator does not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of viruses or other harmful components, nor that any information published on the Site is complete, accurate, or current.
Nothing on the Site constitutes legal, financial, tax, or professional advice. You should obtain independent professional advice before relying on any information provided on the Site for decisions of a legal or financial nature.
To the maximum extent permitted under Philippine law — including the Consumer Act (RA 7394) — the Operator, its directors, officers, employees, agents, and licensors shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, the Site. This includes, without limitation, loss of profits, loss of data, or business interruption, even if the Operator has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Your sole remedy for dissatisfaction with the Site is to stop using it. You use the Site at your own risk.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Operator and its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, and licensors from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your use of or inability to use the Site; (b) your breach of these Terms; or (c) your violation of any law or the rights of any third party. The Operator reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume exclusive defence and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which case you agree to cooperate with the Operator’s defence of that claim. This indemnification obligation survives the termination or suspension of your account and the cessation of your use of the Site.
Changes to these terms of service
The Operator may modify these Terms at any time at its sole discretion. When changes are made, the updated Terms will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Under the Electronic Commerce Act (RA 8792), your continued use of the Site after the posting of any revised Terms constitutes your acceptance of those changes. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using the Site. Where a change is material, the Operator will take reasonable steps to bring it to your attention, for example by displaying a notice on the Site or by other appropriate means. Minor or administrative corrections may take effect as soon as they are posted. We encourage you to review this page periodically so you remain informed of the terms that govern your use of the Site.
Governing law and dispute resolution
These Terms of Service are governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of the Philippines, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions. Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, or the breach, termination, or validity thereof, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts of Metro Manila, Philippines.
Before resorting to litigation, the parties agree to attempt to resolve any dispute through good-faith negotiation. If a dispute cannot be resolved informally within thirty (30) days, either party may submit the matter to mediation before a mutually agreed mediator. If mediation fails, the matter shall proceed to the competent courts as provided above.
If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect (severability). These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other policies or notices published on the Site, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Operator with respect to your use of the Site.
