Responsible Gaming
at sportzino

Gaming should be fun — not stressful. sportzino is committed to keeping it that way for every Filipino player on our platform.

Important: The sportzino platform is strictly for players aged 21 years and above. If you or someone you know may have a gambling problem, please use our self-exclusion tools or reach out to PAGCOR's responsible gaming resources immediately.

Gaming That Stays in Its Lane

At sportzino, we genuinely believe that responsible gaming is not just a legal checkbox — it's the foundation of a platform worth playing on. Whether you're spinning slots from Makati, playing bingo in Cebu, or catching a live casino session in Davao, we want your experience to stay enjoyable, controlled, and within your means.

Problem gambling is a real concern in the Philippines, and sportzino takes its duty of care seriously. We've built a full suite of player protection tools directly into the platform — not buried in a settings menu, but front and centre where they belong. From daily deposit limits to instant self-exclusion, you are always in control of how you play on sportzino.

sportzino operates in alignment with PAGCOR's responsible gaming framework. We train our customer support team to recognise signs of problem gambling and to respond with empathy and practical help. If you ever feel like your gaming is getting out of hand, please don't hesitate — use the tools below or contact our support team right away.

Built-In Safeguards for Every Player

These tools are available to all registered sportzino players at no cost. You can activate them anytime through your account settings or by contacting support.

Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit caps in Philippine Peso (₱) to keep your spending within a budget you're comfortable with. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a 24-hour cooling period — decreasing it is instant.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum session duration so sportzino automatically reminds you — or logs you out — when you've been playing for a set amount of time. It's easy to lose track of time when you're in the zone; this tool keeps you grounded.

Cooling-Off Period

Need a short break? A cooling-off period temporarily suspends your sportzino account for a period you choose — from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. During this time, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. The break activates immediately upon request.

Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is a serious, longer-term tool for players who feel they need to stop gambling entirely. Once activated, your sportzino account is closed for a minimum of six months. During this period, sportzino will not send you any marketing communications.

Reality Checks

Enable periodic on-screen reminders that show you how long you've been playing and your net win/loss for the session. These pop-ups are designed to give you a moment of clarity so you can make an informed decision about whether to continue playing.

24/7 Support

Our customer support team is available around the clock via live chat. If you're struggling with your gaming habits, our agents are trained to listen without judgment and to help you activate the right protection tools for your situation — day or night.

How to Self-Exclude on sportzino

Self-exclusion is the most powerful tool available to you. Here's how to activate it on sportzino in three simple steps. The process takes less than two minutes.

01
Log in to your sportzino account

Go to sportzino Login and sign in with your registered email and password. If you're having trouble accessing your account, contact live chat support immediately.

02

Go to your Account Settings and select the "Responsible Gaming" tab. You'll find all available tools here — deposit limits, cooling-off, session timers, and self-exclusion. Click "Self-Exclusion" to proceed.

03
Choose your exclusion period and confirm

Select a minimum exclusion period of 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, or permanent. Confirm your choice. Your account is closed immediately. sportzino will send a confirmation to your registered email address and remove you from all marketing lists at once.

Self-exclusion on sportzino is irreversible during the chosen period. Any remaining balance will be returned to your registered GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, or Metrobank account within 5 business days. If you attempt to create a new account during your exclusion period, sportzino reserves the right to close it immediately and withhold any deposits.

Deposit Limit Options

sportzino lets you set hard caps on how much you can deposit within a given timeframe. All amounts are in Philippine Peso (₱). These limits apply across all payment methods including GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, and Metrobank.

Limit Type Period Takes Effect To Decrease To Increase
Daily Deposit Limit Resets every 24 hours Immediately Immediately After 24-hour cooling period
Weekly Deposit Limit Resets every 7 days Immediately Immediately After 7-day cooling period
Monthly Deposit Limit Resets every 30 days Immediately Immediately After 30-day cooling period
Session Loss Limit Per gaming session Immediately Immediately After 24-hour cooling period

* Cooling periods are designed to prevent impulsive decisions. They are a feature, not a bug.

Is Your Gaming Still Under Control?

Honest self-reflection is the first step. If you answer "yes" to two or more of the following questions, we strongly encourage you to use sportzino's responsible gaming tools or speak with a support professional.

Do you spend more money on gambling than you originally planned?
Have you tried to cut back on gambling but found it difficult?
Do you gamble to escape stress, boredom, or personal problems?
Have you borrowed money or sold belongings to fund your gambling?
Do you feel restless or irritable when you try to stop gambling?
Has gambling caused problems with your family, friends, or work?
Do you find yourself chasing losses — betting more to win back what you've lost?
Have you hidden your gambling activity from people close to you?

If any of these questions hit close to home, please know that help is available. sportzino's support team is here for you, and PAGCOR maintains responsible gaming resources for Filipino players. You can also reach out to local mental health and addiction support services in Manila, Cebu, Davao, Quezon City, and other major cities across the Philippines.

PAGCOR Responsible Gaming Alignment

sportzino operates in alignment with the responsible gaming standards set by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR). PAGCOR's responsible gaming program is designed to protect Filipino players and promote a safe, fair, and sustainable gaming environment across the country.

PAGCOR's responsible gaming framework includes player education, operator obligations, and support pathways for individuals experiencing gambling-related harm. sportzino supports these objectives and encourages all players to familiarise themselves with PAGCOR's guidelines.

All players must submit a valid government-issued Philippine ID — such as a PhilSys National ID, passport, driver's licence, or SSS/GSIS card — before any withdrawal can be processed. Accounts that cannot be verified as 21+ will be closed immediately.
