Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
bmynet recognizes that while most Filipino players enjoy online casino games responsibly as a form of entertainment, some individuals may develop problematic gaming behaviors. We take our responsibility seriously and have implemented comprehensive measures to promote safe, controlled gaming experiences for all users.
Our responsible gaming program is built on three core pillars: prevention through education, early intervention with self-management tools, and support for those experiencing gaming-related difficulties. We work to create an environment where bmynet players can enjoy our games safely while maintaining control over their gaming activities.
What is Responsible Gaming?
Responsible gaming means playing within your limits—financially, emotionally, and time-wise. It's about keeping gaming fun, not letting it interfere with your daily responsibilities, relationships, or financial stability. At bmynet, we encourage all Filipino players to set boundaries, take breaks, and recognize when gaming stops being entertainment.
Recognizing Problem Gaming
Problem gaming can affect anyone regardless of age, income, or background. Being aware of warning signs helps you maintain healthy gaming habits. bmynet encourages all players to honestly assess their relationship with online casino gaming.
Warning Signs of Problem Gaming
- Spending more money on gaming than you can afford to lose
- Chasing losses by continuing to play to win back money you've lost
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gaming activities
- Neglecting work, school, family responsibilities, or social relationships due to gaming
- Lying to family or friends about time or money spent on gaming
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when trying to reduce or stop gaming
- Using gaming as an escape from problems or negative emotions
- Continuing to play despite negative consequences in your life
- Spending increasing amounts of time thinking about or planning gaming sessions
- Feeling guilty or ashamed about your gaming behavior
If you recognize several of these warning signs in your own behavior, it's important to seek help. bmynet provides tools and resources to help you regain control, and professional support services are available throughout the Philippines.
Responsible Gaming Tools at bmynet
We empower bmynet players with practical tools to manage their gaming activities effectively. All tools are easily accessible through your account settings and can be activated or adjusted at any time.
Deposit Limits
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits to control how much money you add to your bmynet account. Limits take effect immediately and can only be increased after a 24-hour cooling-off period.
Loss Limits
Protect yourself from excessive losses by setting maximum loss amounts per day, week, or month. Once reached, you cannot place additional bets until the limit period resets.
Session Time Limits
Control how long you play in a single session. Set time limits and receive alerts when approaching your limit. Your session ends automatically when the time expires.
Reality Checks
Receive periodic notifications showing how long you've been playing and your current session statistics. These reminders help maintain awareness of time spent gaming.
Take a Break
Temporarily suspend your bmynet account for 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or a custom period. During breaks, you cannot login, deposit, or play—giving you time to reassess.
Self-Exclusion
Permanently or long-term close your account if you need to stop completely. Self-exclusion periods range from 6 months to permanent. This action cannot be reversed during the exclusion period.
How to Activate Responsible Gaming Tools
Setting limits and using responsible gaming features at bmynet is straightforward:

- Select "Responsible Gaming" from the menu
- Choose the tool you wish to activate (deposit limits, loss limits, session limits, etc.)
- Set your desired limits and confirm
- Your limits take effect immediately
Important: Decreasing limits takes effect immediately. Increasing limits requires a 24-hour waiting period to allow time for reconsideration. Self-exclusion cannot be reversed during the exclusion period—this ensures the protection remains in place when you need it most.
Self-Exclusion at bmynet
Self-exclusion is the most comprehensive responsible gaming tool available at bmynet, designed for players who recognize they need to stop gaming completely for an extended period. When you self-exclude, your account is closed and you cannot access bmynet services for the duration of the exclusion period.

- 6 Months: Short-term exclusion for players who need a break to address gaming concerns
- 1 Year: Medium-term exclusion for more serious concerns
- 5 Years: Long-term exclusion for significant gaming problems
- Permanent: Lifetime exclusion with no option to reopen your account
What Happens During Self-Exclusion
- Your bmynet account is immediately closed and locked
- You cannot login, deposit funds, or participate in any gaming activities
- You will not receive promotional communications or marketing materials
- Any remaining account balance will be returned to you via your registered payment method
- Attempts to create new accounts during exclusion will be detected and blocked
- The exclusion period cannot be shortened or reversed once activated
To initiate self-exclusion, contact bmynet customer support via live chat or email. Our team will guide you through the process with respect and confidentiality. Self-exclusion is a brave, responsible decision that demonstrates commitment to addressing gaming concerns.
Tips for Healthy Gaming
bmynet encourages all Filipino players to adopt these responsible gaming practices:
- Set a Budget: Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Never use money intended for rent, bills, food, or other essential expenses.
- Treat Gaming as Entertainment: View bmynet as a form of paid entertainment, like going to the movies or dining out. Don't expect to make money or solve financial problems through gaming.
- Set Time Limits: Decide before you start playing how long your session will last. Stick to your limit and take regular breaks.
- Never Chase Losses: Accept losses as the cost of entertainment. Trying to win back lost money by continuing to play often leads to bigger losses.
- Don't Borrow to Play: Never borrow money, use credit cards for cash advances, or take loans to fund gaming activities.
- Balance Gaming with Life: Maintain relationships, work responsibilities, hobbies, and social activities. Gaming should never interfere with important aspects of your life.
- Avoid Gaming Under Influence: Don't play when drinking alcohol or using substances that impair judgment. Make gaming decisions with a clear mind.
- Take Regular Breaks: Step away from gaming periodically to maintain perspective and prevent compulsive behavior.
- Monitor Your Behavior: Regularly assess whether your gaming habits remain healthy. Use bmynet's account history to review your activity.
- Seek Support Early: If you're concerned about your gaming, reach out for help immediately. Early intervention is most effective.
