Our Responsible Gaming Commitments

Six pillars of safe play that mdplay upholds for every Filipino player

21+ Age Verification

mdplay strictly enforces the 21-year minimum age requirement in line with PAGCOR regulations. Every player must complete identity verification before depositing or playing real-money games.

Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from your mdplay account settings. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately and can only be increased after a 7-day cooling-off period.

Session Time Reminders

Enable session time alerts to receive notifications after 30, 60, or 90 minutes of continuous play. Taking regular breaks is one of the most effective ways to keep gaming enjoyable and in control.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a break, mdplay's self-exclusion tool lets you temporarily or permanently block access to your account. Contact our support team to activate self-exclusion — it takes effect within 24 hours.

Reality Checks

mdplay's reality check feature displays your net gaming activity — wins, losses, and time spent — at regular intervals during your session, helping you make informed decisions about your play.

24/7 Support

Our trained Filipino support team is available around the clock to assist players who have concerns about their gaming behavior. Reach us via live chat on mdplay.app — we're here to help, not judge.

Player Protection Tools

Practical tools available in your mdplay account to help you stay in control

Loss Limits

Cap the maximum amount you can lose in a day, week, or month. When your limit is reached, play is automatically paused until the next period begins.

Cooling-Off Period

Take a short break of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days without fully closing your account. During a cooling-off period, you cannot log in or make deposits.

Permanent Self-Exclusion

Choose to permanently close your mdplay account and block yourself from re-registering. This is a serious step — our team will guide you through the process with care.

Activity History

Review your full gaming history, including all deposits, withdrawals, bets placed, and session durations, directly from your mdplay account dashboard at any time.

Understanding Problem Gambling

Gaming on mdplay is meant to be a form of entertainment — like watching a PBA game or going to the movies. For most Filipino players, it stays that way. But for some, gambling can become a problem that affects their finances, relationships, and mental health. Recognizing the early signs is the first step toward getting help.

Problem gambling is not a sign of weakness or moral failure. It is a recognized condition that can affect anyone, regardless of age, income, or background. The important thing is to be honest with yourself and to seek support early, before the situation becomes more serious.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling: Spending more than you can afford to lose; chasing losses by placing bigger bets; lying to family or friends about your gambling; neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities; feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when not gambling; borrowing money to fund gambling activity.

If any of these signs sound familiar, please reach out to the mdplay support team or contact a qualified counseling service in the Philippines. You are not alone, and help is available.

The 21+ Rule at mdplay

In the Philippines, the legal age for participating in casino-style gambling is 21 years old, as regulated by PAGCOR (Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation). mdplay strictly enforces this requirement across all games and betting markets on the platform.

During registration, all players are required to submit a valid Philippine government-issued ID to verify their age and identity. Accepted IDs include the PhilSys National ID, passport, driver's license, SSS/GSIS card, and UMID card. Accounts that cannot be verified as belonging to a player aged 21 or older will be suspended immediately.

mdplay also encourages parents and guardians to use parental control software to prevent minors from accessing online gaming platforms. If you suspect that a minor has registered on mdplay, please contact our support team immediately.

mdplay's age verification process is conducted in compliance with PAGCOR licensing requirements and the Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA) of the Philippines. All submitted ID documents are handled securely and in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

How to Self-Exclude on mdplay

Self-exclusion is one of the most powerful responsible gaming tools available to mdplay players. If you feel that your gambling is getting out of control, or if you simply want to take a break, self-exclusion allows you to block access to your mdplay account for a set period — or permanently.

  • Temporary Self-Exclusion: Choose a cooling-off period of 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or 6 months. During this time, you will not be able to log in, deposit, or place bets on mdplay.
  • Permanent Self-Exclusion: Permanently close your mdplay account. mdplay will take reasonable steps to prevent you from re-registering. Any remaining real-money balance will be returned to your registered payment method.
  • How to Apply: Contact the mdplay support team via live chat on mdplay.app. Our team will process your self-exclusion request within 24 hours and confirm via email.
  • During Self-Exclusion: mdplay will suppress all marketing communications to your email and mobile number for the duration of your self-exclusion period.

Self-exclusion is a serious commitment. mdplay urges players who are considering self-exclusion to also seek professional support from a qualified counselor or support organization in the Philippines.

Tips for Responsible Play

Whether you're playing slots, joining a bingo session, or betting on your favorite PBA team, these practical tips will help you keep gaming fun and within your means:

  • Set a budget before you start playing and stick to it — only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
  • Never chase your losses. If you've hit your budget for the day, log out and come back another time.
  • Take regular breaks. Use mdplay's session time reminders to prompt yourself to step away from the screen.
  • Don't gamble when you're stressed, upset, or under the influence of alcohol. Emotional states can lead to poor decision-making.
  • Keep gaming in perspective — it's entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial problems.
  • Talk to someone you trust if you feel your gambling is becoming a problem. Seeking help early makes a big difference.
  • Use mdplay's deposit and loss limit tools to set hard boundaries on your spending before you start playing.
