Our Commitment to Safe Play

At big win, we believe that responsible gaming is not just a policy — it is a core part of how we operate for every Filipino player on our platform.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap in Philippine pesos directly from your account settings. Once a limit is in place, it takes effect immediately and cannot be raised for 24 hours, giving you a genuine cooling-off period. This tool is designed to help you stay within a budget you are comfortable with, without relying on willpower alone. You can lower your limit at any time with no waiting period. We encourage all players to set a deposit limit when they first register.

Session Time Reminders

Enable session reminders to receive an on-screen notification after a set amount of time has passed during a single gaming session. Losing track of time is one of the most common ways recreational gaming can become problematic, and this feature helps you stay aware. You can choose reminder intervals from 30 minutes up to several hours, depending on your preference. When the reminder appears, you can choose to continue or log out — the choice is always yours. Staying time-aware is one of the simplest habits for healthy gaming.

Cooling-Off Periods

If you feel you need a short break from gaming, you can activate a cooling-off period of 1, 7, 14, or 30 days from your account dashboard. During this time, you will not be able to log in or place any bets, giving you space to reset without permanently closing your account. This option is ideal for players who want a temporary pause rather than a full self-exclusion. The cooling-off period begins immediately upon activation and cannot be reversed once set. It is a straightforward way to take control when you feel you need it.

Self-Exclusion

For players who feel they need a longer break, self-exclusion allows you to block access to your big win account for a minimum of six months or permanently. During the exclusion period, your account is fully suspended and you will not receive any promotional communications from us. To request self-exclusion, contact our support team by email and we will process your request promptly. We take self-exclusion requests seriously and act on them without delay. If you choose permanent exclusion, your account will be closed and your data handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Recognising Problem Gambling

Knowing the warning signs early makes it much easier to take action before gaming becomes a serious concern.

Chasing Losses

Continuing to play in an attempt to win back money you have already lost is one of the clearest signs that gaming has moved beyond entertainment. If you notice this pattern in yourself, it is a strong signal to pause and use one of the tools available in your account. Losses are a normal part of gaming and should always be treated as the cost of entertainment, not as a debt to recover.

Spending Beyond Your Means

Using money set aside for rent, food, bills, or other essential expenses to fund gaming activity is a serious warning sign. Gaming should only ever be funded from discretionary income — money you can genuinely afford to lose. If you find yourself borrowing money or neglecting financial obligations to play, please reach out to our support team or contact a professional helpline immediately.

Emotional Distress Around Gaming

Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not playing, or using gaming as a way to escape stress or personal problems, are signs that the activity may be affecting your mental wellbeing. Gaming is meant to be a source of entertainment and relaxation, not a coping mechanism. If you recognise these feelings, speaking to a trusted person or a professional counsellor is a positive first step.

Neglecting Relationships or Responsibilities

When gaming begins to take priority over family, work, studies, or social commitments, it is time to reassess your habits. Healthy gaming fits comfortably around your life — it does not replace or disrupt it. If people close to you have expressed concern about how much time or money you spend on gaming, take their feedback seriously and consider using our self-management tools or seeking external support.
