Player Wellbeing

Responsible Gaming at 123b –
Play Smart, Stay in Control

Online gaming should be something you enjoy — not something that causes stress or financial strain. 123b gives every registered player in the Philippines a full set of tools to manage how they play, how much they spend, and when they need to step back.

Gaming Is Entertainment. Let's Keep It That Way.

At 123b, we believe that gaming works best when it is approached as a leisure activity — the same way you would treat a night out or a weekend hobby. It has a budget, a time limit, and a clear end point. Problems start when those limits disappear.

We have built responsible gaming tools directly into every 123b account because we think they should be part of the standard experience, not something you have to go looking for. Whether you play slots, bet on PBA or international football, join a live casino table, or try your hand at online poker, these tools are always accessible from your account dashboard — no support ticket required.

This page explains what tools are available, how to use them, and what signs to look out for if gaming starts to feel less like fun and more like a problem. If you are ever unsure, our support team is reachable at [email protected].

21+ reminder: 123b is strictly for players aged 21 and above. Age verification is required for every account. If you believe a minor has accessed the platform, contact us immediately at [email protected] so we can act quickly.

Gaming involves real money and real financial risk. No outcome on 123b — whether in live casino, sports betting, slots, eBingo, or any other game — is guaranteed. Past results do not predict future outcomes. Every session carries the chance of losing the funds you wager.

This is not fine print. It is the most important thing to understand before you place any bet. A responsible approach means playing only with funds you have already decided you can afford to lose — money set aside for entertainment, separate from your rent, food, utilities, or savings.

If you find yourself thinking about recovering losses, borrowing money to play, or feeling anxious when you stop, those are signs that gaming is no longer just entertainment. The tools and guidance on this page are here for exactly those moments.

Your Self-Management Tools on 123b

All six tools below are built into your account from day one. Access them any time from your account dashboard — no waiting period, no support approval needed to activate.

PHP Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you can deposit in Philippine Pesos. Once a limit is in place, the system will automatically block any deposit that would push you over your chosen threshold.

How to set it: Account Dashboard → Responsible Gaming → Deposit Limits

Session Time Reminders

Choose a session length — for example, 60 or 90 minutes — and receive a prompt when you have been playing for that long. The reminder gives you a natural pause point to reassess before continuing.

How to set it: Account Dashboard → Responsible Gaming → Session Reminders

Cool-Off Period

Take a short break from the platform — 24 hours, 72 hours, or 7 days — without permanently closing your account. During a cool-off period, you cannot log in or place bets. The period cannot be shortened once activated.

How to set it: Account Dashboard → Responsible Gaming → Take a Break

Self-Exclusion

Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from 123b directly from your account settings. During exclusion you cannot log in, make deposits, or participate in games or betting. This is the strongest tool available and takes effect immediately.

How to set it: Account Dashboard → Responsible Gaming → Self-Exclusion

Loss Limits

Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose within a given period. Once that threshold is reached, the platform will prevent further wagering until the period resets, helping you stick to the budget you set at the start.

How to set it: Account Dashboard → Responsible Gaming → Loss Limits

Activity History

View your full transaction history, gaming sessions, and account activity from your dashboard. Reviewing this regularly helps you stay aware of your real spending and playing patterns — no guesswork involved.

How to access: Account Dashboard → History → Transactions / Game Sessions

Increasing limits: Reducing any responsible gaming limit takes effect immediately. Requests to increase a limit require a cooling-off period before they come into force — this is intentional and designed to prevent impulsive decisions during a session.

When Gaming Stops Being Fun

Problem gambling does not always look dramatic from the outside. It often starts quietly — a few extra sessions here, a slightly larger deposit there. The signs below are worth knowing, both for yourself and for people close to you.

If you recognise two or more of these in your own behaviour, it is worth pausing and using one of the self-management tools above, or reaching out to our support team. None of these signs mean you have failed — they just mean it is time to take a step back.

Remember: Gaming should never feel like work, an obligation, or the only way to feel okay. If it does, that is the clearest sign of all that it is time to take a break.

Chasing losses — continuing to play to try to win back money you have already lost

Borrowing money from family, friends, or other sources to fund gaming sessions

Spending significantly more time gaming than you originally planned

Feeling irritable, anxious, or restless when you are not able to play

Hiding your gaming activity or spending from the people close to you

Using money set aside for rent, bills, groceries, or other essentials to fund deposits

Neglecting work, school, or personal relationships because of time spent gaming

Needing to bet larger and larger amounts to get the same level of excitement

A Few Questions Worth Asking Yourself

These are not a clinical tool, but they are a useful starting point for honest self-reflection. If you answer "yes" to several of these, consider activating a cool-off or self-exclusion period, or reaching out to our team.

1
Have you ever tried to stop or reduce your gaming activity and found it harder than expected?
2
Do you think about past gaming sessions or plan future ones more often than you would like?
3
Have you ever deposited more than your original budget because you wanted to keep playing?
4
Do you find yourself playing to escape stress, loneliness, or difficult situations at home or work?
5
Has anyone in your family or circle of friends expressed concern about how much you game?
6
Have you ever felt guilty or regretted how much time or money you spent on gaming?

If several of these ring true, you are not alone — and there is no shame in it. Use the self-exclusion or cool-off tools in your account, or contact us at [email protected] so we can help you get the right support.

For Family and Friends

Concerned that someone close to you might have a gaming problem? Your concern matters. Here is what you can do:

  • Talk to them calmly and without judgement — express concern rather than blame
  • Encourage them to review their account activity and set limits on 123b
  • Contact us at [email protected] — we can advise on available account controls
  • Look for professional support resources available in the Philippines
Tips for Healthier Play
  • Decide your budget before logging in — not during a session
  • Take a break after every 30–60 minutes of play
  • Never play when you are tired, stressed, or emotionally upset
  • Keep gaming as one of several leisure activities — not the only one
  • Review your activity history monthly to track real spending

Responsible Gaming FAQ

Log in to your 123b account and go to your Account Dashboard. Under the Responsible Gaming section, select Deposit Limits. From there you can choose a daily, weekly, or monthly cap in PHP. The limit takes effect immediately after you confirm it. If you want to reduce your limit, it also takes effect right away. Requests to increase a limit go through a mandatory cooling-off period before they become active.

A cool-off period is a short-term break — 24 hours, 72 hours, or 7 days — where your account is temporarily locked. Once the period ends, your account becomes accessible again automatically. Self-exclusion is a stronger measure. You can set it for an extended period or make it permanent. During self-exclusion, you cannot log in, make deposits, or place any bets. If you feel that a cool-off period is not enough, self-exclusion is the more appropriate tool.

No. Once a self-exclusion period is activated on 123b, it cannot be shortened or reversed before it reaches its set end date. This is by design — it protects you from reversing the decision in a moment of impulse. We strongly recommend treating self-exclusion as a firm commitment. If you have serious concerns about your gaming behaviour, we encourage you to use it without hesitation.

Your real-money PHP balance remains in your account during a self-exclusion period. You cannot access the platform, but your funds are not forfeited. When the exclusion period ends — or if you contact support to request a withdrawal during a long-term exclusion — we will process a withdrawal to your registered payment method after any required identity verification is completed.

Yes. 123b is accessible via mobile browser on any Philippine smartphone. All responsible gaming tools in your account dashboard — including deposit limits, loss limits, session reminders, cool-off periods, and self-exclusion — are fully accessible from your mobile device. You do not need to be on a desktop computer to manage your account settings.

You can reach our support team at [email protected] at any time. We can help you activate account controls, answer questions about the tools available, or assist with account closure if needed. For professional support regarding problem gambling, we encourage you to seek guidance from mental health or counselling services available in your area of the Philippines.
