How jilbay Keeps You Safe

Responsible gaming isn't just a checkbox for us — it's woven into how jilbay operates every single day. Here's what we actively do to protect our players.

Strict 21+ Age Verification

Every jilbay account goes through mandatory age verification before any real-money play is allowed. We require a valid Philippine government-issued ID — no exceptions. If you're under 21, you cannot play on jilbay. Period.

Deposit & Loss Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from your account settings. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a 7-day cooling-off period — a deliberate friction to protect you from impulsive decisions.

Self-Exclusion Programme

Need a break? jilbay's self-exclusion tool lets you lock your account for 30 days, 90 days, 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. During exclusion, you cannot log in, deposit, or receive promotional communications from jilbay.

Session Time Reminders

jilbay sends in-session notifications when you've been playing for an extended period. You can also set custom session time limits in your account settings so the platform reminds you to take a break at your chosen interval.

Reality Checks

Our reality check feature shows you a summary of your session — time played, net result, and total wagered — at regular intervals you choose. Staying informed about your activity is one of the most effective ways to stay in control.

24/7 Support & Referrals

Our support team is available around the clock via live chat and email. If you reach out about a gambling concern, our trained agents will listen without judgment and can connect you with professional support resources in the Philippines.

Is Your Gaming Still Fun?

Problem gambling can creep up on anyone — even players who started out just looking for a bit of entertainment. jilbay encourages all players to regularly ask themselves these questions. If you answer "yes" to three or more, it may be time to use our self-exclusion tools or seek support.

1

Do you find yourself spending more money on gambling than you originally planned?

2

Have you ever borrowed money or sold something to fund your gambling?

3

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

4

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

5

Do you gamble to escape problems, stress, or negative feelings like loneliness or depression?

6

After losing, do you feel a strong urge to return as soon as possible to win back your losses?

7

Has gambling ever caused you to miss work, school, or important family commitments?

If you answered yes to 3 or more questions, please consider using jilbay's self-exclusion tool or reaching out to our support team. You can also contact the PAGCOR Responsible Gaming Hotline for confidential assistance.

Know the Difference

Understanding where the line is can help you stay on the right side of it. Here's a quick comparison to keep in mind every time you log in to jilbay.

Healthy Gaming
  • You play for fun and entertainment
  • You set a budget and stick to it
  • You can stop anytime without distress
  • Losses don't affect your mood or daily life
  • Gaming is one of many hobbies you enjoy
  • You're honest with family about your play
Problem Gambling
  • You chase losses to "win it back"
  • You spend beyond what you can afford
  • Stopping feels impossible or distressing
  • Losses cause anxiety, anger, or depression
  • Gaming takes over other parts of your life
  • You hide your gambling from loved ones
Quick Tips for Staying in Control
Always set a budget before you start — treat it like a ticket price for entertainment.
Never gamble when you're stressed, tired, or under the influence of alcohol.
Take regular breaks — step away from the screen every 30–60 minutes.
Never borrow money to gamble — only play with funds you can afford to lose.
Balance gaming with other activities — family time, exercise, hobbies, and rest.

Your Safety Toolkit

jilbay puts the controls directly in your hands. All of these tools are available free of charge inside your account settings — no need to contact support to activate them.

Deposit Limits

Cap how much you can deposit per day, week, or month in Philippine Peso (₱). Reductions apply instantly; increases take 7 days to activate.

Loss Limits

Set a maximum net loss threshold over a chosen period. Once reached, your account is automatically paused for the remainder of that period.

Session Time Limits

Choose how long each gaming session can last. When the timer runs out, jilbay will log you out automatically and prompt you to take a break.

Cooling-Off Period

Take a short break of 24 hours, 48 hours, or 7 days without fully self-excluding. Your account is suspended for the chosen period and reactivates automatically.

Self-Exclusion

Lock your jilbay account for 30 days, 90 days, 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. During exclusion, all access, deposits, and marketing are blocked. Contact support to activate.

Activity History

Review your full gaming history — sessions, wagers, wins, losses, and deposits — at any time from your account dashboard. Transparency is key to staying in control.
