What Tools Does 87game Provide to Help You Play Responsibly?

Every player on the platform has access to a full set of self-management tools — available at any time, directly from your account settings.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you deposit into your 87game account. Once a limit is in place, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased without a mandatory cooling-off period. This helps you stay within a budget that suits your personal financial situation. Lowering a limit takes effect right away, while raising one requires a waiting period to protect you from impulsive decisions. You can review and adjust your deposit limits at any time from your account settings page.

Session Time Limits

Choose how long each gaming session can last before you receive an automatic reminder or are logged out. Time limits are one of the most effective ways to prevent extended play that can lead to fatigue or poor decision-making. You can set limits ranging from 30 minutes to several hours depending on your preference. When your session limit is reached, a clear notification will appear on screen before any action is taken. Keeping sessions short and intentional is one of the simplest habits for healthy gaming.

Reality Check Reminders

Reality check pop-ups appear at regular intervals during your session to show you how long you have been playing and how your balance has changed. These gentle prompts encourage you to pause, reflect, and decide whether you want to continue or take a break. You can customise the frequency of these reminders to suit your own needs. Many players find that a simple reminder every 30 or 60 minutes is enough to keep their gaming intentional and enjoyable. Reality checks are enabled by default and can be adjusted in your account settings.

Cooling-Off Period

If you feel you need a short break from gaming, you can request a cooling-off period of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time, your account will be temporarily restricted from placing any bets or making deposits. The cooling-off period begins immediately upon request and cannot be cancelled once activated. This tool is ideal for players who want a brief pause without committing to a longer exclusion. After the period ends, your account will automatically return to normal access.

Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion allows you to close your account for a defined period — from 6 months up to 5 years — or permanently if you feel that is the right decision for you. Once self-exclusion is activated, you will not be able to log in, deposit, or participate in any gaming activity on the platform. Any pending withdrawals will be processed and returned to you during the exclusion period. We take self-exclusion requests seriously and process them promptly to ensure your protection. To request self-exclusion, please contact our support team directly at [email protected].

Loss Limits

Loss limits allow you to set a maximum amount you are willing to lose within a given time period — daily, weekly, or monthly. Once your loss limit is reached, your account will be restricted from further wagering until the limit period resets. This tool is particularly useful for players who want a hard financial boundary in place regardless of how a session is going. Like deposit limits, loss limits can be lowered immediately but require a waiting period before they can be raised. Setting a realistic loss limit is one of the most practical steps you can take toward responsible gaming.

How Can You Tell If Gaming Is Becoming a Problem?

Recognising the early signs of problem gambling is the first step toward getting back in control. The following indicators are worth reflecting on honestly.

  • You spend more money on gaming than you originally planned or can comfortably afford.
  • You find yourself chasing losses — continuing to play in an attempt to win back money you have already lost.
  • Gaming is taking time away from work, family, or other responsibilities that matter to you.
  • You feel restless, irritable, or anxious when you are not able to play.
  • You have tried to cut back or stop gaming but found it difficult to do so.
  • You borrow money or sell belongings in order to fund your gaming activity.
  • You hide your gaming habits from people close to you because you are concerned about their reaction.

If any of these signs feel familiar, please reach out to our support team or contact a professional counselling service. You do not have to manage this alone, and help is available to every Filipino player who needs it.

Where Can Filipino Players Find Additional Support?

Beyond the tools available on the platform, there are professional resources that can provide confidential guidance and support.

Our player support team is available around the clock to assist with any responsible gaming concern. Whether you want to activate a limit, request a cooling-off period, or simply talk through your options, we are here to help without judgement. Reach us at [email protected] and include your registered account email so we can assist you promptly. All responsible gaming requests are treated with the highest level of confidentiality.

Gamblers Anonymous Philippines

Gamblers Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength, and hope with each other in order to solve their common problem and help others recover from a gambling disorder. Meetings are held regularly across the Philippines and are open to anyone who believes they may have a gambling problem. The programme is free, confidential, and peer-led, making it accessible to Filipino players from all walks of life. Attending even a single meeting can be a meaningful first step toward recovery. More information is available through local community health centres and online directories.

NCMH and Professional Counselling

The National Center for Mental Health (NCMH) in the Philippines provides professional mental health services, including support for behavioural issues such as problem gambling. Filipino players who feel that their gaming has become unmanageable are encouraged to seek a consultation with a licensed counsellor or psychologist. Many local government units also offer free or subsidised mental health services through their community health offices. Speaking with a professional does not mean you have failed — it means you are taking your wellbeing seriously. Early intervention leads to better outcomes, and there is no shame in asking for help.
