Gaming should be fun — a form of entertainment, not a source of stress or financial hardship. At lotto88, we take responsible gaming seriously and provide every Filipino player with the tools, information, and support needed to stay in control.
In the Philippines, the minimum legal age for casino-style gambling is 21 years old, as mandated by PAGCOR. lotto88 strictly enforces this requirement across all games, promotions, and account features — no exceptions, ever.
Every new lotto88 account goes through age verification during the KYC process. Players who cannot confirm they are 21 or older will not be permitted to deposit, play, or claim bonuses. Any account found to belong to a minor will be immediately closed and all deposits returned.
We also encourage parents and guardians in Manila, Cebu, Davao, and across the Philippines to use parental control software to prevent minors from accessing online gaming platforms.
lotto88 uses third-party identity verification services to confirm the age and identity of all registered players. This is not just a policy — it is a technical safeguard built into the registration process.
You must be at least 21 years old to register and play on lotto88. This is a legal requirement under PAGCOR regulations.
lotto88 gives every player a full suite of tools to manage their gaming activity. These are available directly from your account settings — no waiting, no complicated process.
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap on your lotto88 account. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits will be accepted until the period resets. Lowering your limit takes effect immediately; increasing it requires a 24-hour cooling period.
Define the maximum amount you are comfortable losing over a set period. lotto88 will automatically restrict further play once your loss limit is reached, helping you avoid chasing losses — one of the most common signs of problem gambling.
Set a session duration limit and lotto88 will notify you when your time is up. It is easy to lose track of time when you are enjoying a game — our session reminders help you stay aware and in control of how long you play.
Need a short break? Activate a cooling-off period of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time, your lotto88 account will be temporarily restricted from gameplay and deposits. This is a great option if you feel your gaming is becoming too frequent.
For players who need a longer break, lotto88 offers self-exclusion periods from 1 month up to 5 years, or permanent self-exclusion. Once activated, your account will be fully suspended and you will not be able to register a new account during the exclusion period.
Enable periodic reality check pop-ups that display how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered in the current session. A quick reality check can make a big difference in keeping your gaming recreational and enjoyable.
Problem gambling can affect anyone — regardless of age, income, or background. Recognising the early warning signs is the first step toward getting help. At lotto88, we want every Filipino player to be aware of these signs in themselves and in people they care about.
Spending more money on gambling than you can afford, or borrowing money to fund gaming sessions.
Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when you are not gambling or when you try to cut down.
Chasing losses — continuing to play in an attempt to win back money you have already lost.
Lying to family members, friends, or colleagues about how much time or money you spend on gaming.
Neglecting work, school, family responsibilities, or personal health because of gambling.
Using gambling as a way to escape stress, depression, anxiety, or other emotional difficulties.
Repeatedly trying to cut back or stop gambling but finding it difficult or impossible to do so.
If you recognise three or more of these signs in yourself, we strongly encourage you to use lotto88's self-exclusion tool and seek support from a qualified counsellor.
Ask yourself these questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to two or more, it may be time to take a break and speak to someone you trust.
Have you ever gambled with money that was meant for essential expenses like rent, food, or bills?
Do you find yourself thinking about gambling frequently, even when you are doing other things?
Have you ever tried to win back money you lost by gambling more?
Has gambling ever caused arguments or tension with your family or friends?
Do you feel the need to gamble with larger and larger amounts to get the same level of excitement?
Have you ever felt guilty, ashamed, or depressed after a gambling session?
Have you ever hidden your gambling activity from people close to you?
This self-check is for informational purposes only and is not a clinical assessment. If you are concerned about your gambling, please contact our support team.
Requesting a self-exclusion on lotto88 is straightforward. Here is how to do it in three simple steps.
Visit lotto88.one and log in to your player account. Navigate to your Account Settings and look for the Responsible Gaming section in the menu.
Select the self-exclusion duration that suits your needs — from 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 5 years, or permanent exclusion. You can also choose a cooling-off period if you only need a short break.
Confirm your request and your lotto88 account will be suspended immediately. Our support team will send you a confirmation and can connect you with additional resources if needed.
Once a self-exclusion is activated on lotto88, it cannot be reversed before the chosen period ends. This is intentional — it is designed to protect you. If you need help during your exclusion period, our support team is available 24/7.
