winmaya Responsible Gaming — Play Smart, Stay in Control

At winmaya, we believe that entertainment should always feel good. Our responsible gaming commitment is built around giving every Filipino player the tools, information, and support they need to keep their play enjoyable, balanced, and within their personal limits.

If you ever feel that gaming is no longer fun, help is always available.

Tools to Keep Your Play in Check

winmaya gives every Filipino player practical controls to manage their gaming activity with confidence.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap directly from your account settings. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits will be accepted until the period resets. This is one of the most effective ways to keep your spending within a budget you are comfortable with. Limits take effect immediately when you lower them, and any increase requires a short cooling-off period for your protection. We encourage all Filipino players to set a deposit limit when they first register on winmaya.

Session Time Reminders

Losing track of time is easy when you are enjoying a game. winmaya lets you set session duration reminders so you receive a notification after a chosen period of play. These gentle alerts help you pause, reflect, and decide whether to continue or take a break. Staying aware of how long you have been playing is a simple but powerful habit that supports healthy gaming. You can adjust your reminder intervals at any time through your account preferences.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a longer break from gaming, our self-exclusion option lets you suspend your account for a set period — from a few weeks up to a permanent closure. During a self-exclusion period, you will not be able to log in, deposit, or place any bets on the platform. This tool is designed for players who recognise they need stronger boundaries and want a firm, reliable way to step back. Contact winmaya support to activate self-exclusion at any time, and our team will process your request promptly and without judgement.

Activity History

Your full transaction and gaming activity history is available in your account dashboard at any time. Reviewing your history regularly helps you stay honest with yourself about how much time and money you are spending. Transparency is a core part of responsible gaming, and winmaya makes it easy to access clear, accurate records of every session and transaction. If you notice patterns that concern you, use your activity history as a starting point for adjusting your limits or seeking support. Knowledge of your own habits is the first step toward staying in control.

Cool-Off Periods

A cool-off period is a short, temporary break from gaming — typically 24 hours to 30 days — that you can activate whenever you feel you need some distance from the platform. Unlike full self-exclusion, a cool-off is a lighter option that still gives you meaningful breathing room. During a cool-off, your account is paused and you will not receive any promotional communications. This feature is ideal for players who want to reset their mindset without committing to a longer exclusion. You can request a cool-off period through winmaya support or your account settings.

Support & Referrals

Our support team is available to assist any Filipino player who has concerns about their gaming behaviour or that of someone they care about. We can provide information, help you activate any of the tools above, or refer you to professional support organisations in the Philippines. You are never alone in this — reaching out is a sign of strength, not weakness. winmaya is committed to connecting players with the right resources quickly and discreetly.

Recognising Problem Gambling

Honest self-awareness is the foundation of responsible play. Here are some signs that gaming may be becoming a problem.

Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of age, income, or experience level. It often develops gradually, which is why it is important for Filipino players to check in with themselves regularly and honestly. winmaya encourages all players to treat gaming as a form of entertainment — not as a way to earn income, escape problems, or recover losses. If gaming starts to feel like an obligation rather than a choice, that is a signal worth paying attention to.

Common warning signs include spending more money than you planned, chasing losses by placing larger or more frequent bets, feeling irritable or anxious when you are not playing, neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities because of gaming, and borrowing money or selling possessions to fund your play. If any of these signs feel familiar, we strongly encourage you to use the tools available on winmaya or to speak with a professional support service in the Philippines.

Chasing Losses

Trying to win back money you have already lost by betting more is one of the clearest signs of problem gambling.

Spending Beyond Budget

Regularly exceeding the amount you planned to spend is a sign that your gaming needs closer attention and firmer limits.

Mood Changes

Feeling anxious, irritable, or low when you are not playing — or after a losing session — can indicate an unhealthy relationship with gaming.

Neglecting Relationships

Prioritising gaming over time with family, friends, or work responsibilities is a serious warning sign that should not be ignored.

Responsible Gaming — Common Questions

Quick answers to help Filipino players understand their options and rights on winmaya.

You can set a deposit limit directly from your account settings after logging in. Navigate to the responsible gaming section of your account dashboard and choose a daily, weekly, or monthly limit that suits your budget. The limit takes effect immediately once you save it, and any request to increase your limit will be subject to a short cooling-off period to ensure the change is a considered decision. If you need help finding the setting, our support team is available to guide you through the process. We recommend setting a deposit limit as one of the first things you do when you create your winmaya account.

Yes. winmaya offers both cool-off periods and self-exclusion options that allow you to pause your account without permanently closing it. A cool-off period can be as short as 24 hours or as long as 30 days, and during this time your account will be inactive and you will not receive any promotional messages. Self-exclusion is a longer-term option that can last from several weeks up to a permanent closure, depending on your needs. Both options can be activated by contacting winmaya support, and our team will process your request quickly and without any pressure. Your account details and history will be preserved so you can return when you are ready, subject to the terms of your exclusion period.

If you or someone you know needs professional support for problem gambling in the Philippines, there are several organisations that can help. The National Council on Disability Affairs and the Department of Health both provide referral services for behavioural health concerns, including problem gambling. Gamblers Anonymous Philippines also offers peer support groups for individuals and families affected by gambling-related issues. winmaya support can provide you with up-to-date contact information for these organisations upon request. Seeking help is a courageous and positive step, and we are here to support you in finding the right resources.

winmaya is strictly an adult platform and is only available to players who are 21 years of age or older, in accordance with Philippine law. Gaming is not suitable for individuals who are in financial difficulty, recovering from a gambling-related problem, or who find it difficult to control their spending. We also strongly advise against gaming as a means of generating income or recovering financial losses — the outcome of any game is always uncertain. If you are unsure whether gaming is right for you at this time, we encourage you to speak with a trusted person in your life or contact a professional support service before registering. Your wellbeing always comes first.
