How thrill Supports Responsible Play

These are the measures thrill has in place to help players stay in control of their gaming activity.

Self-Exclusion

If you need a break from gaming, you can request a self-exclusion through the thrill support channel. Once active, you will not be able to log in or place bets for the duration of the exclusion period you choose.

Deposit Limits

Set a limit on how much you deposit into your thrill account over a given period. Deposit limits help you plan your gaming spend in advance and stick to a budget that works for your real-life finances.

Session Time Reminders

Lose track of time during a long gaming session? Session time reminders notify you when you have been playing for a set duration, so you can step back, take a break, and check in with yourself.

Reality Check Prompts

During active sessions, thrill can surface reminders about how long you have been playing and what your current balance is. These prompts are designed to keep you aware — not to disrupt the experience unnecessarily.

Underage Access Prevention

thrill enforces a strict 21-year age minimum. Government-issued ID is required during KYC verification before any withdrawal is processed. Accounts found to belong to underage individuals are closed immediately and winnings are void.

24/7 Support Access

The thrill support team is available around the clock through the in-platform support channel. If you have concerns about your gaming behaviour or want to activate any of the tools above, support is always available to help.

Gaming Is Entertainment — Not a Way to Make Money

This is the single most important thing to understand before playing on any online gaming platform, including thrill. Slots, live casino games, sports betting, eBingo — all of these involve real money, carry genuine financial risk, and have no guaranteed outcome. The house edge exists in every game. A winning streak in the past has zero bearing on what happens next.

Gaming on thrill works best when you treat it as a form of entertainment with a budget you set in advance — the same way you might budget for a movie, a meal out, or a sporting event. When you walk into a PBA game at the Smart Araneta Coliseum, you bring money you are comfortable spending on the experience. Online gaming works the same way. You play with money you can afford to lose, and if you reach your limit, you stop — regardless of what has happened in the session up to that point.

That mindset is the foundation of responsible gaming. Everything else on this page — the tools, the warning signs, the support channels — exists to help you maintain it.

Important: thrill does not guarantee winnings from any game or bet. Chasing losses — continuing to play to recover money already lost — is one of the clearest warning signs of problem gambling.

Using thrill's Responsible Gaming Tools

All of the following tools are available to registered thrill players. Contact support through your account dashboard to activate any of them.

Deposit Limits

A deposit limit caps the total amount you can add to your thrill account within a chosen time period — daily, weekly, or monthly. Once your limit is reached, further deposits are blocked until the period resets. Increasing a deposit limit takes effect after a cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decisions made during a session.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum session length for your thrill account. When your session reaches the time limit, you will receive a notification. This is a soft prompt — the choice to continue or stop remains yours, but having the reminder makes it easier to step back and evaluate before continuing.

Cooling-Off Period

A cooling-off period temporarily suspends your thrill account for a chosen duration — typically between 24 hours and several weeks. During this period, you cannot log in or play. This is useful if you feel you need a short break without committing to a full self-exclusion.

Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is a longer-term measure for players who feel their gaming is becoming a problem. You can request a self-exclusion for a defined period or on a permanent basis. During self-exclusion, marketing communications are suppressed and account access is blocked. To request self-exclusion, contact thrill support directly at [email protected] or through the in-platform support channel.

Account Closure

If you wish to close your thrill account permanently, contact support. Any verified balance remaining in your account at the time of closure can be withdrawn to your registered Philippine bank account or e-wallet subject to standard KYC requirements.

All responsible gaming tool requests are handled by the thrill support team. Contact support at [email protected] or via the in-platform chat to activate any limit, cooling-off period, or self-exclusion.

Healthy Gaming vs. Problem Gambling

This table shows the difference between gaming as entertainment and gaming patterns that may signal a developing problem. Be honest with yourself when reviewing these.

Behaviour Healthy Gaming Warning Sign
Budget Plays within a pre-set budget Spends beyond what was planned, borrows to play
Losses Accepts losses as part of the experience Chases losses; keeps playing to win back money
Time Plays for leisure, stops when planned Loses track of time; sessions run much longer than intended
Mood Gaming doesn't strongly affect daily mood Irritable or anxious when not playing; mood depends on wins/losses
Priorities Gaming fits around work, family, and commitments Gaming takes priority over work, family, or bills
Honesty Open about gaming activity if asked Hides or downplays gaming activity from family
Stopping Can stop playing without difficulty Finds it hard or uncomfortable to stop when intended

If several "Warning Sign" descriptions feel familiar, consider using one of the responsible gaming tools above or reaching out to thrill support.

Questions to Ask Yourself Regularly

Financial Check
Am I playing with money set aside for bills, food, or savings?
Have I borrowed money or used credit to fund my gaming?
Do I feel financially stressed because of gaming losses?
Am I spending more than I planned in the last month?
Behaviour Check
Do I keep playing to recover money I've already lost?
Have I missed work, family time, or sleep because of gaming?
Do I feel anxious or restless when I am not playing?
Have I hidden my gaming activity from people close to me?
Answering yes to any of these questions is worth taking seriously. You don't need to answer yes to all of them for your gaming to be causing harm. Reach out to thrill support or speak to someone you trust.

Responsible Gaming FAQ

Contact the thrill support team through the in-platform chat or by emailing [email protected] and request a deposit limit for your account. Tell us the amount and time period — daily, weekly, or monthly — and the limit will be applied to your account. Reducing a limit takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit involves a cooling-off period.

Yes. Contact thrill support to request a self-exclusion. You can choose a specific duration or request a permanent exclusion. Once the exclusion is active, you will not be able to log in or place bets, and marketing communications will be suppressed. If you have a verified balance remaining, you can request a withdrawal before the exclusion takes effect.

The minimum age on thrill is 21 years. This is enforced through KYC identity verification using a government-issued ID. If we identify that an account belongs to someone under 21, the account is closed immediately and any winnings are void. We do not make exceptions to the age minimum under any circumstances.

No. There is no guaranteed outcome in any game or bet on thrill. All games — slots, live casino, sports betting, eBingo — carry a real risk of financial loss. thrill does not make any claims about expected winnings, and any platform or person suggesting you can rely on a "system" or guarantee wins is not being honest with you.

Start by reaching out to someone you trust — a family member, a close friend, or a health professional. You can also contact thrill support to activate a cooling-off period or self-exclusion on your account. The most important step is acknowledging that something is off and not continuing to play while you are in that state. Seeking help early makes a real difference.

For time-limited self-exclusions, your account can be reviewed for reinstatement after the exclusion period ends, subject to a reflection period and support review. Permanent self-exclusions are treated as final — thrill strongly encourages players who request permanent exclusion not to attempt to reopen their account or register a new one.
