Our Commitment to You

5bme was built for Filipino players who love the thrill of online gaming — from slots and bingo to fishing games and virtual sports. But we've always been clear about one thing: gambling is a form of entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial problems.

Responsible gaming is not just a checkbox for us. It's part of how 5bme operates every single day. We monitor player behaviour, provide practical tools to help you stay in control, and make it easy to ask for help when you need it. Whether you're playing from Makati, Cebu, Davao, or anywhere else in the Philippines, the same protections apply to every 5bme account.

We align our responsible gaming framework with the guidelines set by PAGCOR (Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation), which oversees gaming regulation in the Philippines. 5bme takes its player protection obligations seriously, and we continuously review and improve our safeguards to match evolving best practices in the industry.

Remember: Gambling should always be a leisure activity. Set a budget before you play, stick to it, and treat any winnings as a bonus — not an expectation. If it stops being fun, it's time to stop.

📊
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
The odds in all casino games favour the house over the long run. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose, and never chase losses.
🧠
Stay Aware of Your Habits
Regularly review your gaming history and spending on the 5bme platform. Our account tools give you full visibility of your activity so you can make informed decisions.
🤝
Help Is Always Available
Our 24/7 live support team on the 5bme platform can connect you with responsible gaming assistance at any time, no judgment, no waiting.

Player Protection Tools

5bme gives every player direct access to a full set of responsible gaming controls. Here's what's available on your account right now.

💰
Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap on your 5bme account. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits can be made until the period resets. You can lower your limit instantly; increases take 24 hours to apply for your protection.

⏱️
Session Time Limits

Set a maximum gaming session length so the 5bme platform notifies you when your chosen time is up. It's a simple but effective way to keep gaming balanced with the rest of your day — work, family, and life in general.

🔕
Reality Checks

Enable periodic on-screen reminders that show how long you've been playing and your net gaming activity for the session. These gentle nudges help you stay grounded and make conscious choices about continuing to play.

🚪
Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a break from gambling, 5bme's self-exclusion tool lets you suspend your account for a defined period — from 30 days up to permanent closure. During exclusion, you cannot log in, deposit, or wager on the platform.

❄️
Cooling-Off Period

Not ready for a full self-exclusion? A cooling-off period temporarily pauses your 5bme account for a shorter window — 24 hours, 48 hours, or 7 days. It's a lower-barrier option that still gives you the breathing space you need.

📋
Activity & History Review

Access a full log of your gaming sessions, bets placed, deposits made, and withdrawals processed on 5bme. Reviewing your history regularly is one of the most effective ways to stay aware of how much time and money you're spending.

How to access these tools: All responsible gaming controls are available directly within your 5bme account settings. You can also request activation or assistance by contacting our support team via live chat on the platform at any time.

How to Self-Exclude

Requesting self-exclusion on 5bme is straightforward. Here's the process:

1
Log in to Your 5bme Account

Access your account through the 5bme platform using your registered credentials. Self-exclusion requests must be made from an authenticated session.

2
Go to Account Settings

Navigate to the Responsible Gaming or Player Protection section within your account settings panel. All protection tools are grouped here for easy access.

3
Select Self-Exclusion Duration

Choose your preferred exclusion period: 30 days, 90 days, 6 months, 1 year, or permanent. Consider your situation carefully — shorter periods can be extended, but cannot be shortened once active.

4
Confirm Your Request

Your self-exclusion takes effect immediately upon confirmation. You will receive an email to your registered address confirming the exclusion. All marketing communications will also be suspended for the duration.

5
Need Help? Contact Support

If you encounter any difficulty activating self-exclusion, contact our 24/7 live support team on the 5bme platform and a team member will process the request for you immediately.

Problem Gambling Self-Assessment

Ask yourself the following questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to two or more, it may be worth speaking to a counsellor or activating a self-exclusion on your 5bme account.

Q1

Do you find yourself thinking about gambling when you are doing other things, like working or spending time with family?

Q2

Have you ever gambled with money that was meant for rent, food, bills, or other essential expenses?

Q3

Do you feel restless, irritable, or anxious when you try to cut down or stop gambling?

Q4

Have you tried to win back money you have lost by gambling more — commonly known as "chasing losses"?

Q5

Have you lied to family members or friends about how much time or money you spend on gambling?

Q6

Has gambling caused serious problems in your relationships, work, or finances in the past 12 months?

If you answered "yes" to any of the above — please consider activating a self-exclusion or cooling-off period on 5bme, or reach out to our support team for a confidential conversation. There is no shame in asking for help.

Warning Signs to Watch For

Problem gambling can develop gradually. Being aware of early warning signs helps you or someone you care about take action before the situation becomes serious.

🟡 Early Warning Signs

Spending more time gambling than originally planned on a regular basis.

Using gambling as a way to escape stress, boredom, loneliness, or emotional problems.

Feeling a need to gamble with larger amounts to get the same level of excitement.

Making multiple attempts to cut back on gambling but being unable to follow through.

🔴 Serious Warning Signs

Borrowing money from family, friends, or loan services to fund gambling activity.

Missing work, school, or important family events due to gambling sessions.

Experiencing significant financial hardship, debt, or inability to pay bills as a result of gambling.

Feeling depressed, hopeless, or having thoughts of self-harm related to gambling losses.

Age Verification Policy

5bme maintains a strict 21+ age policy in line with Philippine gaming regulations. We verify the age and identity of every player on the platform.

21+

Minimum Age Requirement

Under Philippine law and PAGCOR regulations, participation in casino-style online gambling is restricted to individuals who are at least 21 years of age. 5bme strictly enforces this requirement and will not knowingly permit underage individuals to register or play on the platform.

🪪

KYC Verification

All players must complete identity verification (KYC) before processing withdrawals. Accepted documents include Philippine passport, driver's licence, SSS ID, UMID, and PhilSys national ID. Date of birth is verified as part of this process to confirm the 21+ requirement is met.

🚫

Underage Account Suspension

Any account found to belong to a person under 21 years of age will be immediately suspended and all funds returned. If you are a parent or guardian and suspect a minor has registered on the 5bme platform, please contact our support team immediately via live chat.

Protecting Young People: 5bme recommends that parents and guardians use device-level parental control software to prevent minors from accessing online gambling platforms. If you share a device with children in your household in Manila, Cebu, Davao, or anywhere else in the Philippines, please take steps to restrict access to the 5bme platform when you are not present.

Play Smart. Play Responsibly.

Gaming on 5bme should always feel good. If you ever feel like it's becoming something more than entertainment, our tools and support team are here for you — any time, any day.

5bme is strictly for players aged 21 and above. Please gamble responsibly.
