All onabet users must be at least 21 years old in accordance with Philippine gaming regulations. Underage gambling is illegal and strictly prohibited.
Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
At onabet, we believe that online gaming should be an entertaining and enjoyable pastime. However, we also recognize that for some individuals, gambling can become a problem that affects their financial situation, relationships, and overall well-being. That's why responsible gaming is at the core of everything we do.
We are committed to providing a safe gaming environment for all Filipino players. This commitment includes implementing age verification measures, offering self-management tools, providing access to support resources, and continuously monitoring for signs of problem gambling behavior. Our responsible gaming program is designed to help you make informed decisions about your gaming activities and maintain control at all times.
onabet complies with all applicable Philippine gaming regulations and adheres to international best practices for responsible gaming. We work closely with regulatory authorities and responsible gaming organizations to ensure our platform promotes safe, fair, and transparent gaming for everyone.
Responsible Gaming Tools
Deposit Limits
Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on how much money you can deposit into your onabet account. Once your limit is reached, you will not be able to deposit additional funds until the limit period resets. Deposit limits can be set or adjusted at any time through your account settings.
Loss Limits
Control your potential losses by setting maximum loss limits over a specified time period. Once you reach your loss limit, you will be unable to place additional wagers until the limit period expires. Loss limits help prevent excessive gambling and protect your bankroll.
Session Time Limits
Set reminders or automatic logout timers to manage how long you spend on the onabet platform during each gaming session. Regular breaks help maintain perspective and prevent extended periods of uninterrupted gambling. Session timers can be customized to your preferences.
Reality Checks
Receive periodic pop-up notifications displaying how long you have been playing and how much you have won or lost during your session. Reality checks help you stay aware of your gaming activity and make informed decisions about whether to continue playing.
Cooling-Off Period
Take a temporary break from gaming by activating a cooling-off period. During this time (ranging from 24 hours to 30 days), your onabet account will be temporarily suspended, and you will not be able to log in or place bets. This option is ideal if you need a short break to regain control.
Self-Exclusion
Permanently close your account for a minimum period of 6 months, 1 year, or indefinitely. Self-exclusion is the strongest responsible gaming tool available and should be used if you feel you have lost control over your gambling. Once implemented, self-exclusion cannot be reversed during the exclusion period.
How to Activate Responsible Gaming Tools
Step 1: Log in to your onabet account and navigate to the Account Settings or Responsible Gaming section.
Step 2: Select the tool you wish to activate (deposit limit, loss limit, session timer, cooling-off, or self-exclusion).
Step 3: Enter the desired limit amount or time period and confirm your selection.
Step 4: Your chosen limit will take effect immediately or after a short processing period, depending on the tool selected.
Note: Increases to limits may be subject to a 24-hour waiting period to prevent impulsive decisions. Decreases take effect immediately.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of age, background, or experience level. It's important to recognize the warning signs early so you can take action before gambling negatively impacts your life. Ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you spend more time and money gambling than you intended?
- Do you find yourself gambling to escape problems or relieve feelings of anxiety, depression, or stress?
- Have you lied to family members or friends about your gambling activities?
- Do you feel restless or irritable when trying to cut down or stop gambling?
- Have you borrowed money, sold possessions, or neglected bills to fund your gambling?
- Have your relationships, work performance, or personal health suffered because of gambling?
- Do you try to win back money you've lost by gambling more (chasing losses)?
- Have you tried to stop gambling but found yourself unable to do so?
If you answered "yes" to one or more of these questions, it may be time to seek help. Problem gambling is a serious issue, but it is treatable with the right support and resources.
Tips for Safe and Responsible Gaming
Following these practical tips can help you maintain control over your gambling and ensure it remains a fun, recreational activity:
- Set a Budget: Decide how much money you can afford to lose before you start playing, and never exceed that amount. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, not money needed for bills, rent, or essentials.
- Set Time Limits: Decide in advance how much time you will spend gambling and stick to your plan. Use session timers to help enforce your limits.
- Never Chase Losses: If you lose money, accept it and walk away. Trying to win back losses by gambling more almost always leads to bigger losses.
- Take Regular Breaks: Step away from the screen periodically to clear your mind and maintain perspective. Gaming should not be an all-day activity.
- Don't Gamble Under the Influence: Avoid gambling when you are drinking alcohol, using drugs, or under emotional stress. Impaired judgment increases the risk of making poor decisions.
- Keep Gambling in Balance: Make sure gambling doesn't interfere with your work, relationships, hobbies, or other important areas of your life.
- Understand the Games: Learn the rules and odds of the games you play. Remember that casino games are designed with a house edge, meaning the odds are always in favor of the house in the long run.
- Treat Gambling as Entertainment: View gambling as a form of paid entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial problems.

Age Verification and Underage Gambling Prevention
onabet is committed to preventing underage gambling and ensuring that only individuals who meet the legal age requirement of 21 years or older can access our Services. We employ multiple layers of age verification to protect minors from exposure to gambling activities.
Age Verification Measures:
- All new users must provide their date of birth during the registration process.
- Government-issued identification documents (national ID, passport, driver's license) are required to verify age and identity before withdrawal approval.
- Third-party age verification services are used to cross-check user-provided information against official databases.
- Any account found to belong to an individual under 21 years of age will be immediately closed, and all funds forfeited.
Parental Controls: If you are a parent or guardian concerned about underage access to online gambling, we recommend using parental control software and internet filtering tools to block access to gambling websites. Popular parental control solutions include Norton Family, Qustodio, Net Nanny, and OpenDNS Family Shield.
