Our Commitment to You

b8ngo takes responsible gaming seriously. Here's what we do to protect every player on our platform.

Age Verification
Strict 21+ Enforcement

Every b8ngo player must verify their age and identity before they can deposit or play. We use government-issued ID verification to ensure that no one under 21 years old can access our platform. This is non-negotiable — no exceptions.

Player Controls
Deposit & Spending Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from your b8ngo account dashboard. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a 7-day cooling-off period — decreasing it takes effect right away.

Self-Exclusion
Self-Exclusion Tools

If you feel you need a break, b8ngo's self-exclusion tool lets you temporarily or permanently block access to your account. Minimum exclusion period is 6 months. During exclusion, you will not receive any marketing communications from b8ngo.

Time Management
Session Time Reminders

Set session time limits and receive pop-up reminders when you've been playing for a set period. Reality check notifications show your session duration and net gaming activity so you always know how long you've been playing and how much you've spent.

Cool-Off
Cool-Off Periods

Not ready for full self-exclusion but need a short break? Use b8ngo's cool-off feature to pause your account for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a cool-off period, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets.

Support
24/7 Player Support

Our dedicated support team is available around the clock to assist players who have concerns about their gaming behavior. Whether you're in Manila, Cebu, Davao, or anywhere in the Philippines, help is always just a message away.

How It Works

How to Self-Exclude on b8ngo

If you decide that you need to take a break from gambling, activating self-exclusion on b8ngo is straightforward. Here's how to do it — no waiting, no runaround.

1
Log in to Your b8ngo Account

Go to b8ngo.com and sign in using your registered email and password. If you're having trouble logging in, contact our support team directly.

2
Navigate to Responsible Gaming Settings

Go to your Account Settings and select the "Responsible Gaming" section. You'll find all available tools here — deposit limits, cool-off periods, and self-exclusion.

3
Choose Your Exclusion Period

Select a self-exclusion period: 6 months, 1 year, 5 years, or permanent exclusion. Think carefully — once activated, self-exclusion cannot be reversed before the period ends.

4
Confirm & Activate

Confirm your choice. Your account will be immediately suspended. Any real-money balance will be returned to your registered payment method (GCash, BPI, BDO, etc.) after identity verification.

5
Seek Additional Support

We strongly encourage players who self-exclude to also seek professional support. PAGCOR's responsible gaming program and local counseling services in the Philippines can provide further assistance.

Important: Self-exclusion on b8ngo is a serious commitment. Once activated, it cannot be reversed before the chosen period ends — even if you contact support. This is by design, to protect you.

Know the Signs

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone — regardless of age, income, or background. Recognizing the warning signs early is the first step toward getting help. If you or someone you know is experiencing any of the following, it may be time to seek support.

Spending more money on gambling than you can afford to lose

Chasing losses by placing bigger bets to try to win back money

Lying to family or friends about how much time or money you spend gambling

Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities because of gambling

Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when not gambling

Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling

Using gambling as a way to escape stress, depression, or personal problems

Repeatedly trying to cut back on gambling but being unable to stop

If you recognize these signs in yourself or someone close to you, please reach out to b8ngo support or contact a professional counseling service. You are not alone, and help is available.

Log in to your b8ngo account, go to Account Settings, and select "Responsible Gaming." From there, you can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits. Limits take effect immediately. If you want to increase a limit, a 7-day cooling-off period applies. Decreasing a limit takes effect right away.
