Play Smart, Play Responsibly
At 99pow, we believe that gaming should always be fun — never a source of stress or financial hardship. Our responsible gaming program is built to keep every Filipino player in control, informed, and protected at all times.
Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
99pow takes responsible gaming seriously — it is not just a checkbox for us, it is a core part of how we run the platform. We know that for most of our players across Metro Manila, Cebu, Davao, Quezon City, and the rest of the Philippines, gaming on 99pow is a fun and entertaining pastime. But we also recognize that for some players, gambling can become a problem, and we have a duty to help.
Our responsible gaming framework is designed around three core principles: prevention, protection, and support. We invest in tools, training, and partnerships that help players stay in control — before a problem ever develops. Every feature on the 99pow platform, from deposit limits to self-exclusion, is built with your wellbeing in mind.
We work in alignment with the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) responsible gaming guidelines, which set the standard for player protection across all licensed gaming operators in the Philippines. Our team regularly reviews and updates our responsible gaming policies to reflect the latest best practices in the industry.
Our Pledge: 99pow will never use manipulative design, misleading promotions, or pressure tactics to encourage players to gamble beyond their means. We are on your side — always.
Recognizing Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of age, income, or background. The first step toward getting help is recognizing the warning signs. If you notice any of the following patterns in yourself or someone you know, it may be time to take a step back and seek support.
Spending more money on gambling than you can afford to lose, or borrowing money to fund gaming sessions.
Spending increasing amounts of time gambling, often at the expense of work, family, or other responsibilities.
Chasing losses — continuing to gamble in an attempt to win back money you have already lost.
Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when you try to cut down or stop gambling.
Hiding your gambling activity from family members, friends, or colleagues.
Neglecting personal finances, bills, or daily needs because of gambling-related spending.
Withdrawing from social activities, hobbies, or relationships due to preoccupation with gambling.
Using gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety, depression, or other emotional difficulties.
Honest Check: If two or more of the above signs sound familiar, we strongly encourage you to use our self-assessment tool below and consider reaching out to our support team or a professional counselor.
Quick Self-Assessment
Take a moment to honestly answer the following questions. This is not a clinical diagnosis — it is a simple tool to help you reflect on your gaming habits. If you answer "yes" to three or more questions, we recommend using our responsible gaming tools or speaking with a professional.
Ask Yourself Honestly
Have you ever gambled with money that was meant for rent, bills, groceries, or other essential expenses?
Have you ever felt the need to bet larger and larger amounts to get the same level of excitement?
Have you tried to cut back on gambling but found it difficult or impossible to do so?
Have you ever lied to family members or friends about how much time or money you spend on gambling?
Do you find yourself thinking about gambling frequently — planning your next session or reliving past wins?
Have you ever borrowed money from family, friends, or a lending service specifically to fund gambling?
Has gambling ever caused significant problems in your relationships, work, or financial situation?
Do you feel a strong urge to return and gamble again shortly after finishing a session, win or lose?

Deposit Limits
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit caps in Philippine Peso (₱) to keep your spending within budget.
Session Time Limits
Define how long you can play in a single session. When your limit is reached, you will be automatically logged out.
Loss Limits
Cap the maximum amount you can lose over a set period. Once reached, further play is paused until the period resets.
Cool-Off Period
Take a short break from the platform — 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days — without permanently closing your account.
Self-Exclusion
Exclude yourself from 99pow for a defined period (3 months to 5 years) or permanently. We enforce this strictly.
Promotion Opt-Out
Opt out of all bonus offers, promotional emails, and marketing communications at any time from your account settings.

Instant Access: All responsible gaming tools are available 24/7 in your 99pow account settings. Deposit limit reductions and self-exclusion requests take effect immediately. Limit increases require a 7-day cooling-off period before they apply.
How to Self-Exclude on 99pow
Self-exclusion is one of the most powerful tools available to players who feel they need a break from gambling. When you self-exclude on 99pow, your account is suspended for the duration you choose, and you will not be able to log in, deposit, or place bets during that period. We also remove you from all marketing communications immediately.

Protecting Minors
99pow has a zero-tolerance policy toward underage gambling. Every player must be at least 21 years of age to register and play on the platform, in line with Philippine gaming regulations. We enforce this through a rigorous Know Your Customer (KYC) verification process that requires government-issued photo identification from every player.
Our Age Verification Process
During registration, all players are required to submit a valid Philippine government-issued ID — such as a PhilSys National ID, passport, SSS ID, UMID, or driver's license — to confirm their identity and age. Accounts that cannot be verified as 21+ are suspended immediately and any funds are returned.
Parental Controls and Household Safety
If you share a device or computer with minors in your household, we strongly recommend taking the following precautions:
- Never save your 99pow login credentials on shared devices.
- Always log out of your account after each session.
- Use device-level parental control software to restrict access to gambling websites for minors.
- Keep your account password confidential and do not share it with anyone, including family members.
Report Underage Access: If you suspect that a minor has accessed or attempted to access the 99pow platform, please report it immediately to [email protected]. We will investigate and take immediate action.
Support Resources for Filipino Players
If you or someone you know is struggling with problem gambling, you do not have to face it alone. There are professional resources available in the Philippines that can provide confidential support, counseling, and guidance.
PAGCOR Responsible Gaming Program
The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) operates a dedicated responsible gaming program for Filipino players. PAGCOR's program includes player education, self-exclusion registries, and support referrals. Players who self-exclude through PAGCOR's registry are excluded from all PAGCOR-licensed gaming establishments and platforms.
