Gaming should always be fun — a form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or escape problems. At dbbet, we take responsible gaming seriously and provide every Filipino player with the tools and information needed to stay in control.
dbbet believes that responsible gaming is not just a policy — it's a promise
Here at dbbet, we want every player — whether you're from Manila, Cebu, Davao, or anywhere else in the Philippines — to enjoy our platform in a healthy, balanced way. We know that for most players, online gaming is a fun pastime. But we also understand that for some, it can become a problem.
That's why dbbet has built a full suite of responsible gaming tools directly into the platform. From deposit limits to self-exclusion, we give you real control over your gaming activity. Our support team is available 24/7 to assist any player who feels they need help managing their play.
Responsible gaming at dbbet is guided by the principles set out by PAGCOR (Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation), which oversees online gaming regulation in the Philippines. We align our player protection practices with PAGCOR's responsible gaming framework to ensure the highest standard of care for our players.
dbbet gives you full control over your gaming activity — free of charge, available anytime
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit on your dbbet account 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 7-day cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decisions.
Define the maximum amount you're willing to lose over a set period. When your losses reach the limit you've chosen, dbbet will automatically restrict further play for that period. This tool is especially useful for players who want a hard cap on their gaming spend.
Set a maximum session duration so that dbbet will remind you — or automatically log you out — when you've been playing for a certain amount of time. It's easy to lose track of time when you're in the zone, and this tool helps you stay aware of how long you've been playing.
Need a short break? A cool-off period lets you temporarily suspend your dbbet account for a period of your choosing — from 24 hours up to several weeks. During a cool-off, you cannot log in or place bets. Your account and balance are preserved and accessible when the period ends.
If you feel that your gaming has become a problem, self-exclusion allows you to permanently or long-term close your dbbet account. Self-exclusion periods range from 6 months to permanent closure. During self-exclusion, you will not receive any marketing communications from dbbet.
Enable periodic pop-up reminders that show you how long you've been playing and how much you've spent during your current session. Reality checks are a gentle nudge to pause, reflect, and decide whether you want to continue playing — putting you back in the driver's seat.

Simple habits that keep gaming fun and in its proper place
Recognising the signs early is the first step toward getting back in control
Answer these questions honestly to get a sense of whether your gaming habits are healthy. If you answer "yes" to three or more of these questions, we encourage you to use dbbet's responsible gaming tools or seek professional support.
Have you ever spent more money on gaming than you originally planned to?
Have you ever borrowed money or sold something to fund your gaming activity?
Do you find yourself thinking about gaming frequently, even when you're doing other things?
Have you ever tried to cut down on your gaming but found it difficult or impossible to do so?
Has gaming ever caused problems in your relationships, work, or studies?
Do you feel the need to bet larger and larger amounts to get the same level of excitement?
Have you ever hidden your gaming activity or lied about how much you spend on it?
Do you ever feel anxious, irritable, or low when you are not able to play?
A powerful tool for players who need a longer break from gaming
Take a meaningful break from dbbet for six months. Your account is suspended and you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets during this period.
A full year away from the platform. Ideal for players who need a longer period of distance to reassess their relationship with gaming.
An extended exclusion period for players who want a long-term commitment to stepping away from online gaming on the dbbet platform.
Permanently close your dbbet account with no option to reopen. This is the most serious option and is recommended for players with severe problem gambling concerns.
dbbet has a zero-tolerance policy on underage gaming
Under Philippine law, casino-style gambling is restricted to individuals aged 21+. dbbet strictly enforces this requirement. During registration, all players are required to confirm their age, and our KYC (Know Your Customer) process includes age verification as a mandatory step before any deposits or bets can be placed.
If dbbet has reason to believe that a player is under the age of 21, the account will be suspended immediately pending verification. Any winnings accumulated by an underage player will be withheld pending investigation.
We strongly encourage parents and guardians to use parental control software to prevent minors from accessing online gaming platforms. Many devices and internet service providers in the Philippines offer built-in parental controls that can be configured to block gambling-related websites.
You don't have to face problem gambling alone — help is available across the Philippines
Our 24/7 live chat support team is trained to assist players who have concerns about their gaming habits. Whether you want to set a limit, request a cool-off, or discuss self-exclusion, we're here to help — confidentially and without judgment.
The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) provides responsible gaming guidelines and resources for Filipino players. PAGCOR's framework sets the standard for player protection in the Philippine online gaming industry.
If you or someone you know is struggling with problem gambling, professional counselling services are available in major Philippine cities including Manila, Cebu, Davao, and Quezon City. Your family doctor can also provide a referral to appropriate mental health support.
dbbet is committed to providing a safe, fair, and enjoyable gaming environment for every Filipino player. Explore our games knowing that your wellbeing always comes first — and that our responsible gaming tools are just a click away whenever you need them.
