Our Commitment to Safe Play

5mb believes that responsible gaming is the foundation of a trustworthy platform for Filipino players.

Set Your Deposit Limits

Managing how much you deposit is one of the most effective ways to keep gaming enjoyable. On 5mb, you can request daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits through our support team at any time. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased without a cooling-off period. This gives you full control over your spending and helps prevent chasing losses. We encourage every Filipino player to set a budget before they start playing and stick to it consistently.

Take a Break Anytime

If you feel like you need some time away from gaming, 5mb makes it easy to take a short break or a longer cooling-off period. You can request a temporary account suspension ranging from 24 hours to several weeks by contacting our support team. During this period, you will not be able to log in or place any bets, giving you the space you need to reset. We will not send you any promotional messages while your break is active. Taking regular breaks is a healthy habit that keeps gaming in its proper place as entertainment.

Self-Exclusion Programme

For players who feel they need a longer break, 5mb offers a formal self-exclusion option that closes your account for a minimum of six months. During self-exclusion, your account is fully deactivated and you will not receive any marketing communications from us. To apply for self-exclusion, contact our support team at [email protected] with your registered email address and a clear request. We take all self-exclusion requests seriously and process them promptly. If you are struggling with problem gambling, self-exclusion is a meaningful first step toward regaining control.

Know the Warning Signs

Recognising problem gambling early makes it much easier to get back on track. Here are some signs to watch out for.

Signs You May Need to Step Back

  • Spending more money on gaming than you originally planned or can afford
  • Chasing losses by placing bigger bets to try to win back what you lost
  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when you are not able to play
  • Neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities because of gaming
  • Borrowing money or selling belongings to fund your gaming activity
  • Hiding your gaming activity from family members or close friends
  • Feeling that gaming is the only way to escape stress or personal problems

Healthy Gaming Habits

Responsible gaming starts with treating every session as entertainment, not as a source of income. Always set a fixed budget in Philippine pesos before you start and stop when that budget is reached, regardless of whether you are winning or losing. Keep track of how much time you spend on the platform each week and set a personal time limit that fits comfortably around your daily life. Never play when you are feeling stressed, upset, or under the influence of alcohol, as these states can lead to poor decisions. If you find yourself thinking about gaming constantly or feeling compelled to play, reach out to our support team or a professional counsellor right away.

Support Resources in the Philippines

If you or someone you know is struggling with problem gambling, help is available in the Philippines. The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) operates a responsible gaming programme with resources for affected individuals and families. You can also reach out to local mental health professionals or community support groups for confidential assistance. Our team at 5mb is always available at [email protected] to help you access the right tools or refer you to appropriate support services. You are never alone — reaching out is a sign of strength, not weakness.

Responsible Gaming FAQs

Quick answers to the questions Filipino players ask most about safe gaming on 5mb.

To set a deposit limit on your 5mb account, contact our support team at [email protected] from your registered email address and specify the limit amount and period — daily, weekly, or monthly. Our team will apply the limit to your account promptly, and it will take effect immediately once confirmed. If you wish to lower your limit, the change is applied right away. If you wish to increase your limit, a mandatory cooling-off period applies to give you time to reconsider. We strongly encourage all Filipino players to set a deposit limit that reflects their actual entertainment budget rather than their maximum available funds.

Yes — 5mb offers both temporary and permanent self-exclusion options for players who need them. To request permanent self-exclusion, email [email protected] with your registered account details and a clear statement that you wish to permanently close your account. Once permanent self-exclusion is applied, your account cannot be reopened under any circumstances, and you will be removed from all marketing lists immediately. Any remaining balance in your account will be processed for withdrawal before closure. We treat all self-exclusion requests with the utmost seriousness and confidentiality, and our team will guide you through the process with care and without judgement.

No — 5mb is strictly for adults aged 21 and above in accordance with Philippine gaming regulations. During the registration process, all players are required to confirm their age, and identity verification may be requested to confirm eligibility. If we discover that a minor has registered an account, the account will be immediately closed and any deposits will be returned. We urge parents and guardians to use device-level parental controls to prevent underage access to gaming platforms. Protecting young people from gambling harm is a responsibility we take very seriously as part of our commitment to responsible gaming in the Philippines.

If you are concerned about your gambling behaviour, several resources are available to you in the Philippines. PAGCOR operates a responsible gaming helpline and provides referrals to counselling services for individuals and families affected by problem gambling. Local mental health clinics and community organisations across the Philippines also offer confidential support for gambling-related concerns. You can reach our 5mb support team at [email protected] at any time — we can help you activate account controls, process a self-exclusion request, or point you toward professional help. Remember that seeking support early is the most effective way to address problem gambling before it affects your finances, relationships, and wellbeing.
