Responsible Gaming
Gambling should be a form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Always play for fun and within your means. Never bet more than you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years old, or the legal age for gambling in your jurisdiction, to play at GameZone. In the Philippines, the legal gambling age is 18. Underage gambling is illegal and can cause serious harm. We may request proof of age and identity before allowing access to any gambling activity.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone. Ask yourself if you have experienced any of the following:
- Chasing losses by returning to try to win back money you have lost.
- Hiding your gambling activity from family or friends.
- Spending more time or money on gambling than you can afford.
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to gamble.
- Feeling restless or irritable when trying to cut down or stop gambling.
- Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities because of gambling.
- Lying about how much or how often you gamble.
- Gambling to escape from stress, anxiety, or depression.
Self-Help Tools
Many gambling platforms offer tools to help you keep your play under control. Use these tools to manage your gambling activity:
- Deposit limits – set a maximum amount you can add to your account daily, weekly, or monthly.
- Loss limits – cap the amount you can lose over a set period.
- Reality checks – receive reminders showing how long you have been playing.
- Time-outs – take a short break from gambling, typically from 24 hours up to 6 weeks.
- Self-exclusion – block access to your account for a longer period, from 6 months to permanent.
