Our Commitment to Safe Play

fmb play is committed to providing a safe, fair, and transparent gaming environment for every Filipino player. These guidelines help you stay in control at all times.

Deposit and Spending Limits

You can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from your fmb play account settings at any time. These limits help you stay within a budget that is comfortable for your personal financial situation. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased without a mandatory cooling-off period. We strongly encourage all Filipino players to set realistic limits before they start playing. Responsible budgeting is the foundation of a healthy gaming habit.

Session Time Reminders

Keeping track of how long you have been playing is an important part of responsible gaming. fmb play provides optional session time reminders that alert you after a set period of continuous play, giving you a natural pause to reassess. Taking regular breaks helps you maintain perspective and prevents gaming from becoming an automatic or compulsive activity. You can customise your reminder intervals in your account preferences at any time. We recommend setting a reminder for every 60 minutes of play as a healthy starting point for Filipino members.

Self-Exclusion and Cool-Off

If you feel that you need a break from gaming, fmb play offers both short-term cool-off periods and longer self-exclusion options that you can activate from your account at any time. A cool-off period temporarily restricts access to your account for a duration you choose, ranging from 24 hours to several weeks. A full self-exclusion closes your account for a minimum of six months and prevents re-registration during that period. These tools are designed to give you full control over your gaming activity without judgment. If you choose self-exclusion, our support team will assist you through the process promptly and confidentially.

Underage Gaming Prevention

fmb play strictly prohibits anyone under the age of 21 from registering or playing on the platform, in accordance with Philippine gaming regulations. All new accounts undergo identity verification to confirm that the player meets the minimum age requirement before any real-money activity is permitted. We urge all adult members to keep their login credentials private and to ensure that minors in their household cannot access their accounts. If we have reason to believe that an account is being used by a minor, we will suspend it immediately pending investigation. Protecting young people from gambling harm is a responsibility we take very seriously across all our Philippine operations.

Reality Checks and Account History

Your full transaction and gaming history is always available in your fmb play account dashboard, giving you a clear and honest picture of your activity over any time period. Reviewing your history regularly is one of the most effective ways to stay aware of your spending patterns and gaming frequency. Reality checks are brief on-screen prompts that appear during play to remind you of how long you have been active and how much you have wagered in that session. These prompts are not intrusive but are designed to encourage mindful decision-making at key moments. We believe that transparency and self-awareness are the most powerful tools a player has for maintaining a healthy relationship with gaming.

Support for Affected Families

Problem gambling does not only affect the individual player — it can have a significant impact on family members and loved ones as well. fmb play recognises this reality and encourages family members who are concerned about a loved one's gaming behaviour to reach out to our support team for guidance. We can provide information about third-party exclusion requests and connect concerned individuals with professional support organisations operating in the Philippines. Our team handles all such enquiries with the utmost sensitivity and confidentiality. You are never alone in addressing gaming-related concerns, and help is always available through our platform.

Recognising Problem Gambling

Being aware of the warning signs is the first step toward getting help. If any of the following apply to you or someone you know, we encourage you to seek support without delay.

  • Spending more money on gaming than you originally planned, or chasing losses by placing larger bets to try to recover what you have lost.
  • Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when you are not able to play, or when you try to reduce or stop your gaming activity.
  • Neglecting work, school, family responsibilities, or personal relationships because of the time or money spent on gaming.
  • Borrowing money, selling personal belongings, or using funds intended for essential expenses such as rent, food, or bills in order to fund gaming activity.
  • Lying to family members, friends, or colleagues about the extent of your gaming activity or the amount of money you have spent.
  • Using gaming as a way to escape from stress, anxiety, depression, or other personal difficulties rather than as a form of entertainment.
  • Repeatedly trying to cut back or stop gaming without success, or feeling a loss of control over your gaming behaviour despite wanting to change it.

If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone close to you, please do not hesitate to reach out for help. You can contact our support team directly, visit our FAQ page for more information, or get in touch with a professional support organisation in the Philippines. Taking action early makes a significant difference, and fmb play is here to support you every step of the way.
