Our Commitment to Safe Play

At sagili, responsible gaming is not just a policy — it is a core part of how we operate. We believe that every Filipino player deserves a safe, transparent, and enjoyable experience every time they log in. Our platform is designed with built-in tools that give you full control over how you play, how much you spend, and how long you stay on the platform. We work continuously to improve these tools based on player feedback and best practices from the gaming industry. If you ever feel that your gaming habits are becoming a concern, we encourage you to use the resources on this page without hesitation.

Gaming is meant to be a form of entertainment — a way to relax, have fun, and enjoy the thrill of the game. It should never be used as a way to earn income, recover financial losses, or escape from personal problems. sagili strongly encourages all players to set a personal budget before they start playing and to stick to it regardless of the outcome of any session. Chasing losses is one of the most common signs of problematic gambling behaviour, and recognising it early is the first step toward staying in control. Our support team is always available to help any player who feels they need guidance.

Deposit and Spending Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from your account settings. Once a limit is in place, it cannot be increased immediately — a cooling-off period applies to protect you from impulsive decisions during a session.

Session Time Reminders

Enable session time alerts so you receive a notification after a set period of play. Taking regular breaks helps you stay aware of how long you have been playing and keeps the experience enjoyable rather than compulsive.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a break from gaming, you can request a self-exclusion period through our support team. During this time your account will be suspended and you will not be able to log in, place bets, or receive promotional communications.

Activity History

Your full transaction and session history is available in your account dashboard at any time. Reviewing your activity regularly is a healthy habit that helps you stay aware of your spending patterns and make informed decisions about your play.

Underage Play Prevention

sagili strictly prohibits access by anyone under 21 years of age. All accounts are subject to identity verification, and we reserve the right to request additional documentation at any time to confirm a player's age and identity.

Player Support

Our support team is available to assist with any responsible gaming concern. Whether you want to set a limit, request a cooling-off period, or simply talk through your options, reach us at support at sagili.app and we will respond promptly.

Recognising Problem Gambling

Gambling becomes a problem when it stops being fun and starts affecting your daily life, finances, or relationships. The following signs may indicate that it is time to seek help.

Spending More Than You Can Afford

You find yourself using money set aside for rent, food, bills, or other essential expenses to fund your gaming sessions, or you are borrowing money specifically to gamble.

Chasing Losses

After a losing session you feel a strong urge to keep playing in order to win back what you lost, often resulting in even larger losses and a cycle that is difficult to break without outside support.

Neglecting Responsibilities

Gaming is taking up time that should be spent on work, family, studies, or other important commitments, and you find it difficult to stop even when you know you should.

Mood Tied to Gaming Outcomes

You feel anxious, irritable, or depressed when you are not able to play, or your emotional state is heavily influenced by whether you win or lose during a session.

Hiding Your Gaming Activity

You feel the need to conceal how much time or money you spend on gaming from family members, friends, or colleagues because you are concerned about their reaction.

Unable to Stop or Cut Back

You have tried to reduce or stop gambling on your own but have been unsuccessful, and the urge to play returns quickly even after a period of abstinence or a firm decision to quit.
