gperya Responsible Gaming – Keeping Every Filipino Player Safe
At gperya, enjoying sports betting and casino-style entertainment comes with a firm commitment to player wellbeing. This page outlines the tools, guidelines, and Philippine-based support resources available to help you stay in control and game responsibly.
Your Tools for Staying in Control
gperya provides practical, easy-to-use features inside your account so you can set boundaries that match your lifestyle and budget.
Deposit Limits
You can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from your account settings. Once a limit is active, it takes effect immediately and cannot be raised without a mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period. This gives you full control over how much you fund your account in any given period, helping you stick to a budget that works for your household. If you need help locating the limit settings, the FAQ page has step-by-step guidance.
Session Time Reminders
Long gaming sessions can sometimes go unnoticed. gperya lets you set a session time reminder so you receive an on-screen alert when you have been playing for a defined period — whether that is 30 minutes, an hour, or longer. Taking regular breaks is one of the most effective habits for keeping gaming enjoyable and not letting it eat into time you want to spend with family or on other activities. You can adjust or remove your session reminder at any time from the account settings panel.
Cooling-Off Period
If you feel you need a short break from the platform, you can activate a cooling-off period of 1, 7, 14, or 30 days. During this period your account will be temporarily restricted from wagering, and you will not receive any promotional communications from us. The cooling-off feature is designed to give you breathing room without permanently closing your account. You can request a cooling-off period by contacting [email protected] or through your account settings.
Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion is a longer-term option for members who feel they need more serious support. You can request a self-exclusion period of 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or an indefinite period. Once self-exclusion is active, your account will be closed to all gaming activity and we will do our best to prevent any new accounts being opened under your details. To request self-exclusion, contact [email protected] with the subject "Self-Exclusion Request" and our team will process it promptly.
Reality Check & History
Your full betting and transaction history is available inside your account at any time, giving you a clear and honest picture of how much you have wagered and won or lost over any period. Reviewing your history regularly is one of the best habits a responsible player can build, as it removes guesswork and lets facts guide your decisions. Use the activity summary to check whether your gaming patterns are staying within the limits you have set for yourself.
Age Verification
gperya strictly prohibits anyone under 21 years of age from registering or playing on the platform, in line with Philippine gaming regulations. All new accounts are subject to identity and age verification before full access is granted. If you believe a minor may have access to your account details, please change your password immediately and contact [email protected] so that we can assist you in securing your account. Keeping your login credentials private is part of your responsibility as an account holder.
When Gaming Stops Being Fun: Warning Signs to Watch
Problem gambling can affect anyone. Knowing the early warning signs gives you — or someone you care about — a better chance of getting help before things escalate.
Chasing Losses
Continuing to bet in an attempt to win back money you have already lost is one of the clearest signs of a problem. Every bet should be placed with money you are comfortable losing, not money you need to recover a previous loss. If you notice this pattern in yourself, consider activating a cooling-off period or speaking to a counsellor.
Borrowing Money to Gamble
Using borrowed money — whether from family, friends, or credit — to fund gaming activity is a serious warning sign. Responsible gaming means only using funds that are part of your discretionary budget and never putting essential household expenses at risk. If you find yourself in this situation, reaching out for support is the right next step.
Neglecting Work, School, or Family
When gaming begins to take priority over your job, studies, or time with loved ones, it has moved beyond entertainment. Healthy gaming fits into your life without displacing the things that matter most. If people close to you have expressed concern about your gaming habits, take those conversations seriously and consider reviewing your activity history on your account.
Feeling Anxious or Irritable When Not Playing
Mood changes, restlessness, or irritability when you are unable to access gaming platforms can indicate a dependency. Gaming should be something you choose to do for enjoyment, not something you feel compelled to do to manage your emotions. If you recognise this feeling, speaking to a mental health professional or a gambling support counsellor in the Philippines can make a significant difference.
Hiding Your Gaming Activity
Concealing how much time or money you spend gaming from family members or friends is often a sign that you already sense something is wrong. Openness and honesty about your gaming habits — including with yourself — is an important part of staying in control. If secrecy has become part of your routine around gaming, it is a good time to review your limits or seek guidance through our FAQ or support email.
Philippine Support Resources
You do not have to face a gambling problem alone. These Philippine-based resources offer confidential support, counselling, and guidance for players and their families.
PAGCOR Responsible Gaming
The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) operates a responsible gaming programme that provides educational resources and referral services for players who need support. PAGCOR's guidelines inform the responsible gaming standards that licensed platforms in the Philippines are required to follow. You can find more information about their programme through official government channels.
Gamblers Anonymous Philippines
Gamblers Anonymous Philippines holds regular group meetings where individuals with gambling problems can share their experiences in a confidential, non-judgmental setting. The programme follows a peer-support model that many Filipinos have found helpful as part of their recovery journey. Meeting schedules and locations can be found through community health centres and social welfare offices across the country.
NCMH Crisis Hotline
The National Center for Mental Health (NCMH) in the Philippines provides a 24/7 crisis hotline for individuals experiencing mental health difficulties, including those related to problem gambling. Trained counsellors are available to listen, provide guidance, and refer callers to appropriate services. If you or someone you know is in crisis because of gambling-related stress, reaching out to the NCMH is an important first step toward getting real help.
