Tools to Keep You in Control

We provide every registered player with a set of practical tools designed to help them manage their gaming activity and maintain healthy habits. You can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from your account settings, ensuring that you never spend more than you have planned. Session time reminders can be configured to alert you when you have been playing for a set period, helping you take regular breaks and maintain perspective. If you feel you need a longer break from gaming, our cool-off feature allows you to temporarily suspend your account for a period of your choosing — from 24 hours up to several weeks — without permanently closing your account. For players who need a more definitive break, our self-exclusion option allows you to block access to your account for an extended period, and our support team can assist you in activating this at any time.

Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly caps on how much you deposit. Limits take effect immediately and can only be lowered — not raised — without a mandatory cooling-off period.

Session Time Reminders

Receive on-screen alerts after a set amount of play time so you can step back, reassess, and decide whether to continue or take a break.

Cool-Off Period

Temporarily suspend your account for 24 hours, 7 days, or up to 6 weeks. During this period, you will not be able to log in or make deposits.

Self-Exclusion

Request a long-term exclusion of 6 months, 1 year, or indefinitely. Our team processes all self-exclusion requests promptly and without question.

Recognising Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of age, background, or income level, and it is important to be able to recognise the warning signs early before they escalate into more serious difficulties. Common signs include spending more money or time on gaming than you originally intended, feeling anxious or irritable when you are not playing, chasing losses by continuing to play in an attempt to win back money you have lost, and neglecting work, family, or social responsibilities because of gaming. If you find yourself borrowing money to fund your gaming, hiding your gaming activity from people close to you, or feeling that gaming has become a way to escape stress or negative emotions, these are strong indicators that it may be time to seek support. The good news is that help is available, and reaching out early makes a significant difference to outcomes. We encourage all Filipino players to be honest with themselves and to use the resources listed below if they recognise any of these signs in their own behaviour.

  • Spending more than planned on deposits or gaming sessions
  • Chasing losses or feeling compelled to keep playing to recover money
  • Hiding gaming activity from family members or close friends
  • Neglecting work, studies, or personal relationships due to gaming
  • Using gaming as a way to cope with stress, anxiety, or depression
  • Feeling restless or irritable when attempting to reduce or stop gaming

Support Resources in the Philippines

If you or someone you know is struggling with problem gambling, a range of free and confidential support services are available in the Philippines to provide guidance, counselling, and practical assistance. The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) operates a responsible gaming programme that includes a helpline and referral services for players who need professional support. The National Council for Mental Health (NCMH) provides mental health services across the Philippines and can assist individuals dealing with gambling-related issues as part of a broader mental health concern. Many local government units also operate community-based counselling services that are accessible to Filipino residents at no cost. We strongly encourage any player who feels they may have a problem to reach out to one of these organisations — seeking help is a sign of strength, and recovery is absolutely possible with the right support in place.

  • National Council for Mental Health (NCMH) — mental health and counselling services

Responsible Gaming FAQs

Quick answers to what Filipino players ask most about staying safe on 23 apk.

You can set a deposit limit by logging in to your account and navigating to the Responsible Gaming section of your account settings. From there, you can choose a daily, weekly, or monthly limit that suits your budget and gaming habits. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased without a mandatory cooling-off period to ensure the change is a considered decision. If you need assistance setting up your limits, our support team is available around the clock and can guide you through the process. We recommend all Filipino players set a deposit limit as a standard part of their account setup, regardless of their experience level.

Self-exclusion is a formal request to block access to your 23 apk account for an extended period, typically ranging from six months to indefinitely. It is designed for players who feel they need a significant break from gaming and want a firm barrier in place to support that decision. To request self-exclusion, contact our support team using the email address in the footer of this page and clearly state that you wish to self-exclude along with your preferred exclusion period. Our team will process your request promptly, and once activated, you will not be able to log in, deposit, or place bets for the duration of the exclusion. Self-exclusion requests are handled with complete confidentiality and without judgement — your well-being is our priority.

Yes — if you have an existing balance in your account at the time of self-exclusion, you will still be able to request a withdrawal of those funds. Our support team will assist you in processing your withdrawal request even while your account is under self-exclusion, as we want to ensure you retain full access to your own money. Please contact us via the support email in the footer and provide your account details along with your withdrawal request. Withdrawals during self-exclusion are processed through the same Philippine payment channels — GCash, bank transfer, or e-wallet — that you used for deposits. For more information about the withdrawal process, you can also visit our Withdrawal page.

Yes — all players must be at least 21 years of age to register and play on 23 apk, in line with Philippine gaming regulations. We verify the age of all new players during the registration process, and we may request additional identity documentation at any point to confirm eligibility. Any account found to belong to a player under the age of 21 will be immediately suspended and any funds held will be returned in accordance with our terms and conditions. We take our age verification obligations seriously and encourage parents and guardians to use device-level parental controls to prevent underage access to gaming platforms. If you have concerns about underage access, please contact our support team immediately.
