πŸ›‘οΈ Play Safe

Responsible Gaming at 88lj

At 88lj, we believe that gaming should always be fun, safe, and within your control. Our responsible gaming programme gives every Filipino player the tools, information, and support they need to play smart β€” and to stop when it stops being fun.

πŸ”ž 21+

The 88lj platform is strictly for adults aged 21 and above. This is a legal requirement under Philippine law. Age verification is mandatory for all players.

Gaming Should Always Be Entertainment

For most Filipino players, 88lj is exactly what it's meant to be β€” a fun, exciting way to enjoy slots, live casino games, sports betting, bingo, and more from the comfort of home. Whether you're spinning Mahjong Ways from Quezon City or catching a live dealer game in Cebu, 88lj is designed to be an entertainment platform first and foremost.

But we also know that for a small number of players, gambling can become a problem. Problem gambling doesn't discriminate β€” it can affect anyone, regardless of income, background, or how long they've been playing. That's why 88lj has built a comprehensive responsible gaming framework that puts player wellbeing at the centre of everything we do.

Our responsible gaming tools are available to every 88lj player, free of charge, at any time. You don't need to be in crisis to use them β€” many of our most engaged players use deposit limits and session reminders simply as a matter of good habit. We encourage all players to explore these tools and use them proactively.

88lj operates in a PAGCOR-compliant environment and adheres to the responsible gaming standards set by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation. We take our obligations to Filipino players and to the broader community seriously.

⚠️ Remember: Gambling is not a way to make money.

The house always has an edge. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose. Never chase losses. Set a budget before you play and stick to it β€” every time, no exceptions.

Your Responsible Gaming Toolkit

88lj gives you full control over your gaming activity. These tools are built into your account and can be activated at any time β€” no waiting period, no questions asked.

1
πŸ’° Deposit Limits
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap on your 88lj account. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Lowering your limit takes effect immediately; raising it requires a 24-hour cooling-off period.
2
πŸ“‰ Loss Limits
Define the maximum amount you're comfortable losing in a given period. When your loss limit is reached, 88lj will automatically pause your gaming session and notify you. This is one of the most effective tools for keeping gambling within a healthy budget.
3
⏱️ Session Time Limits
Set a maximum session duration. When your time is up, 88lj will display a reminder and give you the option to end your session. It's easy to lose track of time when you're playing β€” this tool keeps you grounded.
4
πŸ”” Reality Check Reminders
Enable periodic pop-up reminders during your gaming session showing how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered. A quick reality check can make a big difference in keeping your session enjoyable and in control.
5
❄️ Cooling-Off Period
Take a short break from 88lj β€” from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. During a cooling-off period, you cannot log in or deposit. This is ideal if you feel you need a temporary pause without committing to full self-exclusion.
6
🚫 Self-Exclusion
Request a self-exclusion of 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanent. During self-exclusion, your account is closed and you cannot register a new account. 88lj also submits self-exclusion requests to the PAGCOR self-exclusion register where applicable.

To activate any of these tools, log in to your 88lj account and visit Account Settings > Responsible Gaming, or contact our support team at [email protected].


Is Your Gambling Still Under Control?

Problem gambling often develops gradually. Many players don't realise there's an issue until it has already affected their finances, relationships, or mental health. Ask yourself honestly β€” do any of the following apply to you?

?
You spend more money on gambling than you originally planned.
?
You chase losses β€” betting more to try to win back what you've lost.
?
You feel restless, irritable, or anxious when you're not gambling.
?
You hide your gambling activity from family or friends.
?
You borrow money or sell belongings to fund gambling.
?
Gambling is affecting your work, studies, or relationships.
?
You've tried to stop or cut back but found it difficult.
?
You gamble to escape stress, anxiety, or personal problems.

If you answered yes to two or more of the above, we strongly encourage you to use 88lj's self-exclusion tools and to seek support. You are not alone β€” help is available.

Healthy Play vs. Problem Gambling

βœ…
Healthy Gaming Looks Like…
Playing within a pre-set budget. Treating wins as a bonus, not an expectation. Stopping when the session limit is reached. Gambling for fun, not to solve financial problems. Being open about your gaming with people you trust.
🚨
Problem Gambling Looks Like…
Spending beyond your means. Chasing losses with bigger bets. Hiding your activity from family. Feeling compelled to gamble even when you don't want to. Gambling to cope with stress, loneliness, or depression.

Strictly 21+ β€” No Exceptions

Philippine law and PAGCOR regulations require that all online casino players be at least 21 years of age. 88lj enforces this requirement rigorously at every stage of the player journey.

πŸͺͺ
Mandatory KYC Verification
Every 88lj player must submit a valid government-issued ID β€” PhilSys, passport, or driver's licence β€” before making a first withdrawal. Age is verified against the ID on file. Accounts where age cannot be confirmed are suspended immediately.
🚫
Zero Tolerance for Underage Play
If 88lj discovers that a player is under 21, the account is closed immediately, all funds are frozen pending investigation, and the matter is reported to the relevant Philippine authorities. There are no exceptions to this policy.
πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§
Parental Responsibility
If you share a device with minors, please ensure that your 88lj account is protected with a strong password and that you log out after every session. Consider using parental control software to prevent underage access to gambling websites.

How Self-Exclusion Works at 88lj

Self-exclusion is the most powerful responsible gaming tool available to 88lj players. When you self-exclude, your account is immediately closed and you are blocked from creating a new account for the duration of your exclusion period.

88lj offers the following self-exclusion periods:

  • 6 months β€” a meaningful break with a defined end date
  • 1 year β€” recommended for players who feel gambling has become a habit
  • 3 years β€” for players who need a longer-term solution
  • Permanent β€” irreversible closure for players who choose to stop gambling entirely

During any self-exclusion period, 88lj will also suppress all marketing communications to your email and mobile number. We will not send you promotional offers, bonus notifications, or re-engagement messages.

To request self-exclusion, contact our support team at [email protected] or use the self-exclusion option in your Account Settings. Requests are processed within 24 hours.

πŸ“‹ PAGCOR Self-Exclusion Register

88lj cooperates with PAGCOR's responsible gaming framework. Players who self-exclude through 88lj may also request that their exclusion be submitted to the PAGCOR self-exclusion register, which covers all PAGCOR-licensed operators in the Philippines. Contact our support team for assistance with this process.

You Don't Have to Face This Alone

If gambling has become a problem for you or someone you care about, reaching out is the most important step you can take. 88lj's support team is available 24/7 and is trained to handle responsible gaming concerns with sensitivity and without judgment.

PAGCOR Responsible Gaming
The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation operates a responsible gaming programme for Filipino players. PAGCOR's framework includes player protection measures, self-exclusion coordination, and awareness campaigns across the Philippines.
🀝
Talk to Someone You Trust
Sometimes the most important step is simply telling a family member or close friend what you're going through. Problem gambling thrives in secrecy β€” breaking that silence is often the turning point. Your loved ones in Manila, Cebu, Davao, or wherever you are want to help.
