Gambling is Entertainment,
Not a Financial Plan
At 38jili, responsible gaming isn't a checkbox on a compliance form. It's a real, built-in part of the platform. Whether you're a casual bingo player in Cebu or a regular live dealer member in Makati, the same tools are in your account — always accessible, never hidden. Here's everything 38jili offers to help you stay in control.
Strictly 21 and Above
Philippine gaming regulations set the minimum age for casino-style gambling at twenty-one (21) years old. This is not a soft guideline at 38jili — it is a hard requirement enforced at account registration and maintained throughout the life of every account.
Every new 38jili member goes through identity verification (KYC) before their real-money account is activated. This process requires a government-issued Philippine ID — UMID, passport, driver's license, or PhilSys ID — and confirms that the applicant meets the age requirement. No exceptions. No workarounds.
If 38jili has reason to believe that an account is being used by or on behalf of someone under 21, the account will be suspended immediately pending investigation. Any funds held in an account confirmed to belong to a minor will be handled in accordance with PAGCOR's underage gambling enforcement procedures.
Parents and guardians in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao: if you share a device with a household member under 21, keep your 38jili login credentials private. If you suspect a minor has accessed your account, contact 38jili support immediately via live chat.
Controls Available to Every 38jili Member
Every 38jili account comes with a full suite of responsible gaming controls — no premium tier required, no approval process. Open your account settings and they're all right there.
Deposit Limits
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly maximum deposit amount for your account. Once a limit is set, 38jili will reject any deposit that would exceed it — even if you change your mind in the moment. Increases to a deposit limit take 24 hours to activate, giving you time to reconsider. Decreases take effect immediately.
Daily · Weekly · MonthlyLoss Limits
Cap the total amount you're willing to lose in a given time period. When your net losses reach the limit you've set, 38jili will prevent further real-money wagering until the period resets. This is separate from deposit limits — it tracks actual losses, not just deposits.
Daily · Weekly · MonthlySession Time Limits
Tell 38jili how long you want to play in a single session. When your session limit is reached, you'll receive a clear notification and be prompted to take a break. You can set limits as short as 30 minutes or as long as 4 hours. Short sessions, fresh perspective.
30 min to 4 hrsReality Checks
Periodic on-screen pop-ups that show you how long you've been playing, your net gaming balance for the session, and a prompt to continue or stop. Reality checks can be set at intervals of 15, 30, or 60 minutes. They appear regardless of which game you're in — slots, live dealer, or keno.
15 · 30 · 60 min intervalsCooling-Off Periods
Take a structured break without fully closing your account. Cooling-off periods can be set for 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days. During a cooling-off period, your account is fully suspended for gaming but accessible for review of your history. The period cannot be cancelled early once activated.
24 hrs · 3 days · 7 days · 30 daysSelf-Exclusion
For Members who need a longer or permanent break. Self-exclusion blocks access to your account for a period of 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. Once activated, self-exclusion cannot be reversed during the chosen period. This is the most powerful tool in 38jili's responsible gaming suite — and it's one click away.
3M · 6M · 1Y · PermanentAll protective limits take effect the moment you save them — no waiting period for reductions.
Raising a limit requires a 24-hour cooling period so impulse decisions don't override your plan.
Once exclusion is active, no action you take during the period can reopen your account.
All tools work from your phone browser — no desktop required to set or modify controls.
When Gaming Stops Being Fun
Problem gambling doesn't always feel like a problem from the inside. It often sneaks up slowly — a few more sessions than planned, a slightly higher deposit, a little more tension about the outcome. The earlier you recognize the signs, the easier it is to address them.
These warning signs apply to everyone — whether you're playing on a busy Friday night in Manila or a quiet afternoon in Iloilo. If several of these resonate with you, 38jili's responsible gaming tools and support team are ready to help. No judgment, no complicated process — just a conversation and a path forward.
The PAGCOR Responsible Gaming program offers resources specifically for Filipino players, including counseling services and exclusion programs that extend across all PAGCOR-licensed platforms in the Philippines.

Quick Self-Check: How Is Your Gaming?
This is not a diagnostic tool — just a set of honest questions worth sitting with. No data is collected. This exists entirely for your own reflection.
Honest Questions About Your Gaming
Have you ever felt the need to bet with larger and larger amounts of money to get the same level of excitement?
Have you ever tried to cut back on gambling but found it difficult or impossible to follow through?
In the past month, have you gambled to escape from problems or to relieve feelings of anxiety, stress, or depression?
After losing money gambling, have you often returned the next day to try to win it back?
Have you ever lied to family members, a partner, or friends to hide the extent of your gambling?
Has gambling ever jeopardized or damaged an important relationship, your job, or an educational opportunity?
Have you relied on others to provide money to relieve a desperate financial situation caused by gambling?
How to Self-Exclude from 38jili
Self-exclusion is the strongest responsible gaming tool 38jili offers. It is a voluntary commitment to stop gambling on the platform for a defined period — and once activated, it cannot be undone until the period ends, regardless of what you say or request during that time.
38jili takes self-exclusion requests seriously. If you contact us via live chat and say "I want to self-exclude," our support team will walk you through the process and confirm it is active before the conversation ends. You don't need to explain yourself. You don't need to justify the decision. You just need to ask.
During a self-exclusion period, 38jili will not send you promotional emails or marketing messages. Your account will be inaccessible for gaming. Your balance, if any, will be preserved and available for withdrawal after the exclusion period ends, subject to standard KYC verification.
Activating Self-Exclusion on 38jili
Access 38jili via your regular login. If you're having trouble logging in, contact support directly via live chat — they can initiate exclusion on your behalf after verifying your identity.
The Responsible Gaming section is in your account settings menu. All tools — limits, reality checks, cooling-off, and self-exclusion — are in one place. No sub-menus or buried options.
Options are 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or permanent. Each option shows a clear description of what will happen to your account. Read through before selecting.
You'll be asked to confirm twice — once to acknowledge the period and once to acknowledge that the exclusion is irreversible. This is intentional: 38jili wants to make sure this is a considered decision.
Your account is suspended for gaming within seconds of confirmation. You will receive an email confirmation to your registered address. 38jili will remove you from all promotional mailing lists during the exclusion period.
Help Beyond 38jili
38jili's tools are the first line of support — but problem gambling sometimes requires professional help outside the platform. These resources are available to Filipino players.
PAGCOR Responsible Gaming Program
PAGCOR, the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation, operates a Responsible Gaming program for Filipino players across all PAGCOR-regulated platforms. The program includes a National Exclusion Register — a single self-exclusion that applies across all PAGCOR licensees operating in the Philippines, not just 38jili.
If you self-exclude through the PAGCOR National Register, 38jili is required by its PAGCOR license to honor that exclusion and prevent access to your account. The PAGCOR Responsible Gaming hotline is listed on the official PAGCOR website at pagcor.ph — accessible to all Filipino players regardless of which platform they use.
38jili's compliance team submits required responsible gaming reports to PAGCOR on a regular basis as part of its licensing obligations. PAGCOR oversight of responsible gaming is a structural part of how 38jili operates, not a voluntary add-on.
Support for Filipino Players & Families
Gambling problems affect not just the individual but also their families. Across the Philippines — from Quezon City to Davao City — counseling services are available for people experiencing gambling-related harm, as well as for family members affected by a loved one's gambling behavior.
The National Center for Mental Health (NCMH) in Mandaluyong City offers mental health services accessible to Filipinos, including support for behavioral addictions. Many local health centers (barangay and city-level) can provide referrals to appropriate counseling resources.
38jili support staff are trained to provide information about available support resources when a member reaches out about a gambling problem. Contact us via 24/7 live chat — the conversation is confidential, and we will always prioritize your wellbeing over any other platform consideration.
What 38jili Commits to Every Player
Transparent Spend Tracking
Your 38jili account displays a full transaction history — every deposit, withdrawal, and gaming session is recorded and accessible. No hidden summaries, no obscured totals. Seeing exactly what you've deposited and lost in real numbers is a responsible gaming tool in itself.
No Pressure Marketing
38jili promotional messages are opt-in and can be turned off at any time in account settings. We do not send "you haven't played in a while" re-engagement messages that are specifically designed to pull inactive players back. If you've taken a break, that's your call to make.
Proactive Monitoring
38jili's responsible gaming team reviews behavioral patterns across the platform for indicators of problem gambling — rapid deposit frequency, chasing loss patterns, and extended session times. Members showing these patterns may be proactively contacted by our team with information about available tools.
Marketing Pause During Exclusion
When a Member activates a cooling-off period or self-exclusion, 38jili immediately removes them from all promotional mailing lists. No bonus offers, no game notifications, no "come back" messages. The exclusion includes marketing, not just platform access.
24/7 Human Support
Responsible gaming concerns can come up at any hour — not just during Manila business hours. 38jili's support team is available via live chat around the clock, including weekends and Philippine public holidays. Average response time: under 3 minutes.
PAGCOR-Backed Accountability
38jili's responsible gaming program is not self-regulated. PAGCOR licensing requires documented RG procedures, regular compliance reporting, and enforcement of the National Exclusion Register. Filipino players have regulatory recourse through PAGCOR if 38jili fails to uphold its responsible gaming obligations.
