Play Smart.
Stay in Control.
Game Responsibly.
At 1pluss, we believe that online gaming should always be fun, social, and — most importantly — safe. Responsible gaming is not just a policy we follow; it is a value we live by every day for every Filipino player on our platform.
Why Responsible Gaming Matters at 1pluss
Here at 1pluss, we understand that the thrill of playing slots, rummy, roulette, bingo, and live casino games can sometimes cross the line from entertainment into something less healthy. That is why responsible gaming is built directly into the 1pluss platform — not added as an afterthought, but integrated into every layer of the experience Filipino players have with us.
Gambling is meant to be an enjoyable leisure activity, similar to watching a PBA game or going to the mall on a Saturday. The moment it stops being fun and starts causing stress, financial strain, or relationship problems, it is no longer entertainment — it is a problem that needs to be addressed. At 1pluss, we give you the tools to recognise that shift early and act on it.
We take our responsibility seriously under Philippine gaming regulations and the standards set by PAGCOR. Our responsible gaming program covers age verification, deposit controls, session management, self-exclusion, and access to professional support resources — all available directly from your 1pluss account.
Six Ways 1pluss Keeps You in Control
Every one of these responsible gaming features is built into the 1pluss platform and is accessible to all registered Filipino players at no cost, at any time.
Deposit Limits
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much PHP you can deposit into your 1pluss account. Once you hit your limit, no further deposits are accepted until the cooling period resets. Lowering your limit takes effect immediately; increasing it requires a 24-hour cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decisions.
Session Time Limits
Decide in advance how many minutes or hours you want to spend on the 1pluss platform per session or per day. When your limit is reached, the system will automatically end your session and log you out. You can also opt in to receive a reminder notification at the halfway point of your chosen session duration.
Reality Check Reminders
Reality checks are periodic pop-up notifications that appear during your gameplay to remind you how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered in the current session. This simple but effective feature helps Filipino players stay grounded and make conscious decisions rather than losing track of time while enjoying bingo or slots.
Cool-Off / Take a Break
If you feel you need a short break from gaming, the 1pluss cool-off feature lets you suspend your account for a defined period — anywhere from 24 hours up to six weeks. During a cool-off period, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. The restriction lifts automatically when the period ends, and support cannot override it early.
Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion is the most powerful tool available at 1pluss. You can voluntarily exclude yourself from the platform for a minimum of six months, up to five years, or permanently. Once self-exclusion is activated, 1pluss will close your account, suppress all marketing communications, and prevent re-registration for the full exclusion period. This cannot be reversed once confirmed.
Loss Limits
In addition to deposit limits, 1pluss allows you to set a maximum net loss threshold per day, week, or month. Once your net losses hit the defined amount, the system will prevent further wagers for the remainder of that period. Loss limits are a proactive way to protect your budget and ensure that gaming stays within what you can comfortably afford to lose.
Could Your Gaming Habits Be a Problem?
These are not trick questions. They are the same screening questions used by professional gambling support counsellors in the Philippines and internationally. Be honest with yourself — your answers are private and not recorded by 1pluss.
Do you find yourself gambling with money that was set aside for rent, bills, groceries, or other essential expenses in the Philippines?
Have you tried to cut back or stop gambling, but found it difficult or impossible to follow through on that intention?
Do you spend a lot of time thinking about your next gambling session — planning it, reliving past sessions, or working out how to get more money to play?
Have family members, friends, or colleagues ever expressed concern about your gambling habits, or have you hidden your gambling activity from people close to you?
Do you chase losses — that is, do you gamble more to try and win back money you have already lost, often ending up losing even more?
Has gambling ever caused you significant stress, anxiety, depression, or interfered with your work, school, or personal relationships?
Recognising Problem Gambling Early
Problem gambling rarely appears all at once. It builds gradually. Knowing the early warning signs can help you or someone you care about take action before the situation becomes severe. Here are the most common signs that gaming has moved from entertainment to a problem.

How to Activate Responsible Gaming Tools
All tools are accessible from the Responsible Gaming section in your 1pluss account dashboard. Here is how to get there and set up the protections that are right for you.
Log In
Complete your 1pluss login using your registered email and password. Make sure you are on the official 1pluss website at https://1pluss.org to ensure your session is secure and SSL-encrypted.
Go to Settings
Once logged in, click on your profile avatar in the top right corner of the screen. From the dropdown menu, select "Account Settings" and then navigate to the "Responsible Gaming" tab in the left sidebar.
Choose Your Tools
Select the protection tools you want to activate — deposit limits, session timers, reality checks, cool-off, loss limits, or self-exclusion. Each tool has a dedicated panel with clear controls and plain-language explanations of how it works.
Confirm & Save
Set your preferred limits or exclusion periods and click Confirm. Lower limits and cool-off or self-exclusion periods take effect immediately. If you need help at any step, our 24/7 support team is reachable at [email protected].
Understanding Your Limit Options
1pluss offers flexible limit types to match different playing styles. Here is a plain-language breakdown of what each limit type does and when to use it.
Daily Limits
Caps your deposits or losses within a single calendar day (midnight to midnight, Philippine Standard Time). Best for players who want tight daily control over their gaming budget without restricting longer-term flexibility.
Weekly Limits
Applies your chosen cap across a rolling 7-day window. This is a popular choice among Filipino players who prefer to spread their gaming budget across several sessions throughout the week rather than monitoring it day by day.
Monthly Limits
Sets a ceiling on your deposits or losses for the entire calendar month. Monthly limits are ideal for players who have a fixed monthly entertainment budget and want a simple, set-and-forget control that aligns with their payroll schedule.
Session Time Limits
Restricts how many consecutive minutes you can spend on the platform in a single sitting. When your session time is up, you are automatically logged out. You can set a new session the following day, keeping daily play time predictable and manageable.
Reality Check Intervals
Choose how frequently you want a reality check reminder to appear during gameplay — every 15, 30, 45, or 60 minutes. Each pop-up shows your session duration and net gaming balance so you always have the information you need to make an informed decision about whether to continue.
Self-Exclusion Periods
Choose from 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, or permanent exclusion. Once confirmed, your 1pluss account is locked, all marketing is suppressed, and re-registration is blocked. This is the strongest tool available and is designed to be irreversible for the chosen period.
Our Commitment to Keeping Minors Safe
1pluss has a zero-tolerance policy toward underage gambling. Under Philippine gaming regulations, the minimum legal age to participate in casino-style gambling activities is 21 years old. We enforce this requirement through a rigorous multi-step verification process that every new player must complete before they can make their first deposit or wager.
During registration, we collect your date of birth and cross-reference it against the government-issued identity document you submit during KYC verification. Acceptable Philippine IDs include the PhilSys National ID, a valid Philippine passport, a driver's licence issued by the LTO, a PRC ID, or a UMID. No deposits or real-money gameplay are permitted until age verification is fully approved by our compliance team.
We also use automated detection systems to flag accounts that show patterns consistent with underage users — such as unusual gaming hours, device sharing patterns, or inconsistent identity data. If any account is found to belong to a person under 21, it is immediately suspended pending investigation, all funds are frozen, and the matter is escalated to our compliance team.
