Gambling should always be fun — a form of entertainment, not a way to make money or escape problems. okybet is fully committed to keeping it that way for every player in the Philippines. Here's everything you need to know about playing safely on our platform.
Minimum age to play on okybet
Support available for responsible gaming concerns
Player protection tools available on okybet
Cost to activate self-exclusion on your account
okybet takes responsible gaming seriously. These six pillars define how we protect every player on our platform — from Manila to Cebu, Davao to Quezon City.
No one under 21 years old is permitted to open an okybet account or place any wager. We verify age during registration and conduct ongoing checks. Any account found to belong to a minor is closed immediately and all funds are forfeited in line with PAGCOR regulations.
If you feel your gambling is getting out of hand, okybet lets you self-exclude for a set period — from 30 days up to permanent exclusion. During exclusion, your account is locked, all marketing is stopped, and you cannot create a new account. It's free and takes effect immediately.
Take control of your spending by setting daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits on your okybet account. You can also set loss limits so that once you reach your threshold, the platform automatically prevents further play until the limit period resets.
It's easy to lose track of time when you're enjoying slots, bingo, or live casino games. okybet sends you session time reminders at intervals you choose, so you always stay aware of how long you've been playing. Healthy breaks make for a better gaming experience.
okybet's reality check feature sends you periodic pop-up notifications showing how long you've been playing and your net win or loss for the session. These gentle nudges help you make informed decisions about whether to continue or take a break.
Our responsible gaming support team is available around the clock. Whether you need help setting limits, activating self-exclusion, or just want to talk through your concerns, okybet's team is here for you — no judgment, just genuine help.
okybet gives you a full toolkit to manage your gambling habits. All tools are available directly from your account settings — no need to contact support unless you prefer to. Here's how each one works.
All responsible gaming tools on okybet are free to activate, take effect immediately, and can be made more restrictive at any time. Relaxing a limit always requires a mandatory cooling-off period.
Example: Player Limit Dashboard
Set a maximum amount you can deposit into your okybet account per day, week, or month. Once your limit is reached, deposits are blocked until the period resets. You can lower your limit instantly; raising it requires a 24-hour waiting period.
Define the maximum amount you're comfortable losing in a given period. When your net losses hit the threshold, okybet automatically suspends further play for that period. This is one of the most effective tools for keeping gambling within your budget.
Cap the total amount you can wager — regardless of wins or losses — within a set time frame. Ideal for players who want to control their overall betting activity rather than just their net spend.
Set a maximum session duration. When your time is up, okybet will log you out automatically. You can also enable mid-session reminders at 30-minute or 1-hour intervals to keep you aware of how long you've been playing.
Need a short break? A cool-off period temporarily suspends your okybet account for 1 day, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time you cannot log in, deposit, or play. It's a lighter alternative to full self-exclusion when you just need some breathing room.
For more serious concerns, self-exclusion closes your okybet account for a minimum of 6 months, up to permanent exclusion. All marketing is stopped, and you cannot register a new account during the exclusion period. Contact our support team to activate this immediately.
Problem gambling can affect anyone — regardless of age, income, or background. Recognising the early warning signs is the first step toward getting help. If any of these sound familiar, please reach out to okybet Support or a professional counsellor.
Spending more money on gambling than you can afford to lose, or borrowing money to fund your play.
Chasing losses — continuing to gamble in an attempt to win back money you've already lost.
Gambling for long periods, losing track of time, or neglecting sleep, meals, and daily responsibilities.
Withdrawing from family and friends, or lying to loved ones about how much time or money you spend gambling.
Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when you try to cut down or stop gambling.
Gambling affecting your work performance, school attendance, or career — missing deadlines or skipping shifts.
Using money set aside for rent, bills, groceries, or other essentials to fund gambling activity.
Using gambling as a way to escape stress, depression, anxiety, or other emotional difficulties.
If you recognise three or more of these signs in yourself or someone you know, we strongly encourage seeking help. okybet's responsible gaming team is available 24/7, and professional support is available across the Philippines. You are not alone.
Self-exclusion is one of the most powerful tools available to players who feel their gambling is becoming a problem. At okybet, we've made the process as straightforward as possible — because when you need help, the last thing you need is a complicated process standing in the way.
Follow these steps to activate self-exclusion on your okybet account:
Once self-exclusion is active, it cannot be reversed until the chosen period has fully elapsed. This is intentional — it ensures the tool is effective when you need it most.
A short-term break for players who want to pause and reassess. Account is suspended; all marketing stops. Best for players who feel they need a reset rather than a full exit.
The minimum self-exclusion period. Recommended for players who recognise a pattern of problem gambling and need a meaningful break to seek support and rebuild healthy habits.
A full year away from okybet. Gives you substantial time to work with a counsellor, address underlying issues, and return to a healthier relationship with gambling — if you choose to return at all.
A lifelong ban from okybet. This is irreversible. Choose this option if you are certain that gambling is causing serious harm to your life, finances, or relationships. We fully support this decision.
Not sure if your gambling habits are healthy? Ask yourself these questions honestly. This is not a clinical diagnosis — it's a starting point for reflection. If you answer "yes" to several of these, we encourage you to use okybet's responsible gaming tools or speak with a professional.
Answer yes or no to each question. Be honest — this is for your benefit, not ours.
Have you ever gambled with money you needed for rent, food, or bills?
Do you find yourself thinking about gambling when you're supposed to be focused on work or family?
Have you tried to cut back on gambling but found it difficult or impossible?
Do you gamble to escape stress, loneliness, boredom, or emotional pain?
Have you lied to family members or friends about how much you gamble?
After losing, do you feel a strong urge to return and win your money back?
If you answered "yes" to two or more questions: It may be time to take a closer look at your gambling habits. okybet's responsible gaming tools are here to help — and speaking with a professional counsellor is always a positive step. You can also reach our support team anytime via the Support page.
Gambling is entertainment — and okybet is here to make sure it stays that way. Set your limits, know your boundaries, and enjoy slots, live casino, bingo, and more with confidence. Remember: 21+ only, and always play within your means.
Must be 21 years or older to play. Gambling can be addictive — please play responsibly. PAGCOR regulated.
