Need Help?

If you or someone you know is struggling with problem gambling, reach out to our support team anytime.

Important reminder: Online gaming is for entertainment only. It is not a way to earn income or solve financial problems. Never bet more than you can comfortably afford to lose.

1. Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At PH Link, we believe that gaming should always be an enjoyable experience — not a source of stress, financial pressure, or harm. Whether you enjoy sports betting on PBA games, spinning slots, playing live casino, or joining fish games, the experience is meant to be recreational.

We take responsible gaming seriously as part of how we operate. That means giving players in the Philippines access to tools that help them manage their activity, providing clear information about the risks of problem gambling, and making it easy to reach support when it is needed. Our platform enforces a strict 21+ age policy — no exceptions.

This page outlines what ph link offers to support healthier gaming habits, the warning signs to watch for, and what you can do if gaming starts to feel like a problem.

2. Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. It does not always look the same for everyone, but there are common patterns that are worth knowing. If you recognise any of the following in yourself or someone close to you, it may be time to take a step back.

Chasing losses by placing bigger bets to try to win back what you lost
Spending more time gaming than you originally planned, repeatedly
Using money set aside for bills, rent, food, or savings to fund gaming
Feeling irritable, anxious, or restless when you are not able to play
Hiding your gaming activity or the amounts you have spent from family
Making repeated unsuccessful attempts to cut back or stop playing
Neglecting responsibilities, relationships, or work because of gaming
Needing to bet larger amounts over time to feel the same level of excitement

Recognising these signs early makes a real difference. If several of these apply to you, we encourage you to use the self-assessment below and explore the tools available on your PH Link account.

3. Quick Self-Assessment

Honest answers to these questions can help you get a clearer picture of your relationship with gaming. There are no right or wrong answers — this is for your own awareness.

Ask Yourself These Questions

1
Have you ever spent more money on gaming than you planned when you started that session?
2
Have you borrowed money or sold something to fund your gaming activity?
3
Do you find yourself thinking about gaming frequently when you are doing other things?
4
Have you ever tried to win back money you lost by continuing to play or placing larger bets?
5
Has gaming ever caused conflict with your family, friends, or work in the Philippines or elsewhere?
6
Do you feel like you need to keep your gaming activity secret from the people close to you?
If you answered yes to two or more of these questions, it may be helpful to take a short break, set some limits on your account, or speak with someone you trust. Our support team is available at [email protected].

4. Tips for Safer Play

Most players on PH Link enjoy gaming without any issues. Keeping a few simple habits in mind goes a long way toward making sure it stays that way.

  • Set a budget before you start. Decide on a fixed amount in PHP that you are comfortable spending, and treat it like the cost of entertainment — not an investment. Once it is gone, log out.
  • Use a time limit. It is easy to lose track of time when you are having fun. Set a reminder on your phone before you start, and stick to it — whether you are up or down.
  • Never chase losses. If things are not going your way, the urge to keep playing to recover is a normal feeling — but it almost always makes things worse. A loss is a loss. Walk away.
  • Take regular breaks. Step away between sessions. Gaming while tired, stressed, or after drinking is a common way that small problems become bigger ones.
  • Avoid gaming when you are emotional. Big decisions — including betting decisions — made under stress, frustration, or grief rarely end well. Give yourself time to settle first.
  • Keep other parts of life active. Gaming is healthiest when it is one part of a full life. Stay connected with family and friends in Manila, Cebu, Davao, or wherever you are, and keep your other interests going.

5. Responsible Gaming Tools on PH Link

Your PH Link account includes built-in tools to help you manage how you play. These are available to all registered players and can be adjusted through your account settings or by contacting support.

6. Protecting Minors

PH Link enforces a strict minimum age of 21 years old. This is verified during the KYC registration process, and any account found to belong to someone under this age will be closed immediately.

If you share a device or home with younger family members, we recommend the following:

  • Never share your PH Link login credentials with anyone, including family members.
  • Log out of your account when you are done — especially on shared devices.
  • Use device-level parental controls available on Android and iOS to restrict access to gaming sites.
  • Keep your password private and change it regularly for added security.

If you suspect that a minor has accessed our platform, contact us immediately at [email protected] so we can take action.

Remember: Gaming on PH Link is never a guaranteed way to make money. Every game and bet carries risk. Play for fun, within your means, and know when to stop.

7. Frequently Asked Questions

You can request a deposit limit adjustment by contacting our support team at [email protected]. Describe the limit you would like to set (daily, weekly, or monthly in PHP) and our team will apply it to your account. Limits take effect promptly, and increases to existing limits require a short cooling-off period before they apply.

Self-exclusion allows you to temporarily or permanently block access to your PH Link account. During the exclusion period, you will not be able to log in, deposit, or place bets. To request self-exclusion, contact our support team and specify the duration — from a short cooling-off break to a longer-term restriction. We will process your request without judgment.

Yes. You can request a temporary cool-off period — a short pause on your account activity without permanently closing it. This is a good option if you feel you need a break but are not ready for a full self-exclusion. Contact support at [email protected] to set this up.

Yes. PH Link is strictly for players who are 21 years of age or older. Age verification is required during the KYC process. Any account found to belong to a person under 21 will be closed and any funds returned in accordance with our terms.

The first step is acknowledging it — which takes real courage. We recommend reaching out to our support team to discuss account restrictions, taking a break, or self-excluding. You should also consider speaking with a trusted person in your life. Taking a step back from gaming, even briefly, can provide valuable clarity.
