Our Commitment to Safe Play

sg5 believes that responsible gaming is the foundation of a trustworthy platform. Here is what we stand for and the tools we provide to every registered member in the Philippines.

Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit caps directly from your account settings. Once a limit is in place, it takes effect immediately and helps you stay within your personal budget without any extra effort.

Session Time Reminders

Lose track of time easily when you are having fun — that is why sg5 lets you set session duration alerts. You will receive a notification when your chosen play time is up, so you can decide whether to take a break or continue with full awareness.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a longer break, our self-exclusion tool lets you temporarily or permanently suspend your account. During the exclusion period, you will not be able to log in or receive any promotional communications from us.

Activity History

Your full gaming and transaction history is always available in your account dashboard. Reviewing your activity regularly is one of the simplest ways to stay aware of your habits and spot any patterns that may need attention.

Reality Checks

Reality check pop-ups appear at intervals you choose, showing you how long you have been playing and your net result for the session. These brief prompts are designed to keep you grounded and help you make informed decisions about continuing or stopping.

Support Access

Our support team is available around the clock to assist with any responsible gaming concern. Whether you need help activating a limit, understanding your options, or simply want to talk through a concern, we are here to help without judgement.

Know the Warning Signs

Gaming is entertainment — but it can become a problem for some people. Recognising the early signs is the first step toward getting back in control.

Signs to Watch Out For

  • Spending more money on gaming than you originally planned or can comfortably afford.
  • Chasing losses by continuing to play in an attempt to win back money you have already lost.
  • Neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities because of time spent gaming.
  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when you are not able to play.
  • Borrowing money or selling belongings to fund your gaming activity.
  • Hiding your gaming habits from friends or family members.
  • Continuing to play even when it is no longer enjoyable and feels more like a compulsion.

Healthy Gaming Habits

  • Treat gaming purely as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn income or solve financial problems.
  • Set a fixed budget before you start playing and stick to it regardless of the outcome.
  • Take regular breaks and balance gaming with other hobbies, social activities, and rest.
  • Never play when you are feeling stressed, upset, or under the influence of alcohol.
  • Keep track of how much time and money you spend each week using the tools available in your account.
  • Talk openly with someone you trust if you feel your gaming is getting out of hand.
  • Remember that every game outcome is random — there is no strategy that guarantees a win.
