Our Commitment
Responsible gaming isn't just a checkbox for palago — it's built into every part of the platform. Here's what we do to protect every player.
Every palago account goes through a mandatory KYC process. We verify government-issued IDs — passport, SSS, PhilHealth, UMID, or driver's license — to confirm every player is 21 years old or above before they can deposit or play a single game.
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from your palago account settings. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period — so you always have time to think it through.
palago lets you set session time alerts so you get a notification when you've been playing for a set amount of time. It's a simple nudge to take a break, grab some water, and check in with yourself before continuing.
If you feel you need a break from gaming, palago's self-exclusion tool lets you temporarily or permanently close your account. Options range from a 24-hour cool-down to a permanent ban. During exclusion, you will not receive any promotional communications from palago.
palago displays real-time session summaries showing how long you've been playing and your net balance for the session. These reality checks help you stay grounded and make informed decisions about whether to continue or call it a day.
Our Filipino support team is available around the clock via live chat. Whether you're in Manila, Cebu, Davao, or anywhere in the Philippines, help is always just one tap away — no waiting, no runaround, just real assistance when you need it most.
Self-Exclusion Tools
palago's self-exclusion feature is one of the most important responsible gaming tools we offer. We understand that sometimes life gets complicated, and stepping away from gaming is the right call. There's no shame in it — in fact, recognizing when to pause is a sign of strength.
When you activate self-exclusion on palago, your account is locked immediately. You won't be able to log in, deposit, or place bets for the duration you choose. Our system also removes you from all marketing lists so you won't receive any bonus offers or promotional emails during your exclusion period.
Important: Self-exclusion on palago does not automatically exclude you from other gaming platforms. If you feel you need broader support, we encourage you to reach out to PAGCOR's responsible gaming program or seek professional counseling.
Go to Account Settings from the main menu after logging in to your palago account.
Find the Responsible Gaming section within your account settings panel.
Select from 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, 6 months, 1 year, or permanent exclusion.
Confirm your choice via OTP. Your account is locked immediately and the exclusion takes effect right away.
Need a short breather? A cool-down pause locks your account temporarily while you take stock. Perfect for players who just want to step back for a day or two without committing to a longer break.
A week or a month away from gaming can make a real difference. During this period, palago blocks all access to your account and suspends all promotional communications directed at you.
For players who need a more extended break, palago offers 6-month and 1-year exclusion options. These are ideal if you want to focus on other priorities in life without the temptation of gaming.
If you decide that online gaming is no longer right for you, palago offers a permanent self-exclusion option. This action is irreversible — your account will be permanently closed and you will not be able to re-register.
Know the Signs
Problem gambling can affect anyone — regardless of age, income, or background. The earlier it's recognized, the easier it is to address. palago encourages all players to be honest with themselves and check in regularly.
Self-Assessment
Be honest with yourself. If you answer "yes" to two or more of these questions, we strongly encourage you to use palago'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 gambling even when you're doing other things?
Have you tried to cut back on gambling but found it difficult or impossible?
Has gambling caused arguments or tension with your family, friends, or partner?
Do you gamble to escape stress, anxiety, loneliness, or other negative feelings?
Have you ever lied to someone close to you about how much you gamble or how much you've lost?
After losing, do you feel a strong urge to return and win back what you lost?
If you answered yes to 2 or more: Please consider using palago's self-exclusion or deposit limit tools. You may also want to speak with a professional counselor. Remember — asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. palago's support team is available 24/7 via live chat to help you access the right tools.

Regulatory Context
Online gaming in the Philippines is regulated by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR), which sets standards for responsible gaming practices across all licensed operators. palago operates in alignment with PAGCOR's responsible gaming framework, which includes player protection measures, age verification requirements, and self-exclusion programs.
PAGCOR maintains a national responsible gaming program that provides resources for players who may be experiencing gambling-related difficulties. If you feel that your gaming has become a problem, we encourage you to explore the support options available through PAGCOR's responsible gaming initiatives.
PAGCOR Responsible Gaming: The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation provides responsible gaming resources and a self-exclusion registry for players across all PAGCOR-regulated platforms. Contact PAGCOR directly for information about their national self-exclusion program and support services.

Healthy Habits
Decide how much you're comfortable spending before you open the app. Treat it like a night out — once the budget is gone, the session is over. Never chase losses by depositing more than your planned amount.
Gaming on palago is entertainment — like watching a movie or going to a concert. It should never be treated as a source of income or a way to solve financial problems. If you're playing to make money, that's a warning sign.
Step away from the screen regularly. Grab a snack, stretch, or chat with someone. Long uninterrupted gaming sessions can cloud your judgment and lead to decisions you might regret. palago's session reminders can help with this.
Alcohol and other substances impair judgment and can lead to reckless betting decisions. palago recommends playing only when you are clear-headed and in a calm, rational state of mind.
Make sure gaming is just one of many activities in your life — not the main one. Maintain your relationships, hobbies, work, and health. A balanced lifestyle is the best protection against problem gambling.
Winning streaks end and losing streaks happen. Know your limits and stick to them. If you've hit your loss limit or your session time is up, log out. There will always be another day to play on palago.
