What You Should Know Before You Play at ph979
These cards summarise the most important provisions. They do not replace the full Terms below — please read the complete agreement.
You Must Be 21 or Older
ph979 Casino is strictly for adults aged 21 years and above, as required by PAGCOR. Creating an account as a minor, or allowing a minor to use your account, is a serious breach of these Terms and will result in immediate account closure and forfeiture of any balance.
One Account Per Person
Each individual player may hold only one active ph979 account. Duplicate accounts — regardless of the reason for creating them — will be permanently closed and any associated balances forfeited. Identity documents are required before any withdrawal is processed.
Bonuses Have Wagering Requirements
All bonuses and free credit awarded by ph979 are subject to wagering requirements before the bonus or any derived winnings can be withdrawn. The specific requirements are stated on each promotion page. Attempting to withdraw bonus funds before meeting these requirements will result in cancellation of the bonus.
Withdrawals Require Verified Identity
ph979 is required by PAGCOR and Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA) regulations to verify the identity of every player before processing a withdrawal. KYC documents must be submitted and approved before your first cashout. Funds can only be returned to a payment method registered in your own name.
Fraudulent Play Leads to Termination
ph979 employs automated and manual monitoring to detect collusion, arbitrage betting, use of bots or software exploits, bonus abuse, and other forms of fraudulent activity. Accounts found engaging in prohibited conduct will be immediately suspended, balances frozen pending investigation, and winnings derived from such conduct voided.
PAGCOR Governs This Agreement
These Terms are governed by Philippine law, and ph979 operates under a license issued by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR). Any unresolved disputes may be escalated to PAGCOR's player complaints mechanism. ph979 cooperates fully with all PAGCOR-directed inquiries and investigations.

2 Eligibility
To be eligible to register and maintain an Account on ph979.org, you must satisfy all of the following conditions at all times:
- You are at least twenty-one (21) years of age;
- You are a resident of the Philippines or otherwise accessing the Services from a jurisdiction in which doing so is lawful;

- You have not been diagnosed with or are currently receiving treatment for problem gambling and you have not previously requested exclusion from gambling services.
ph979 reserves the right to request documentary evidence of eligibility at any time. Failure to satisfy any eligibility condition will render these Terms void with respect to that Player, and ph979 may close the Account, withhold any Bonus Funds, and return the verifiable real-money Balance to the original payment source.
3 Account Registration
To access ph979's real-money Services, you must create an Account by completing the registration process and providing accurate, current, and complete information including, without limitation: your full legal name, date of birth, residential address, email address, and a valid Philippine mobile telephone number.

One Account Per Person. Each Player is permitted to hold one (1) Account only. The registration of duplicate Accounts — regardless of the email address, name variation, or payment method used — is strictly prohibited. Where ph979 identifies duplicate Accounts held by the same individual, ph979 reserves the right to close all Accounts, forfeit any Bonus Funds, and restrict withdrawals pending investigation.
Account Security. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Account login credentials, including your password and two-factor authentication codes. ph979 will not be held liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to protect your Account credentials. You must notify ph979's support team immediately upon becoming aware of any unauthorized access to your Account.
4 Identity Verification (KYC)
ph979 is required to comply with PAGCOR's licensing conditions and the Anti-Money Laundering Act of the Philippines (Republic Act No. 9160, as amended). As part of this compliance, ph979 conducts Know Your Customer (KYC) identity verification before processing any withdrawal from a Player's Account.
Accepted Documents. The following Philippine government-issued identification documents are accepted for KYC verification:
- PhilSys National Identification Card
- Philippine Passport (issued by the Department of Foreign Affairs)
- Land Transportation Office (LTO) Driver's License
- UMID (Unified Multi-Purpose Identification Card — SSS or GSIS)
- Voter's Identification Card (issued by COMELEC)
- PRC Professional Regulatory Commission Identification Card
- Senior Citizen's ID (issued by OSCA)
ph979 may additionally request proof of payment method ownership (e.g., screenshot of GCash account registered in the Player's name) and proof of residential address where required by applicable regulations. Failure to provide satisfactory KYC documentation will result in the withholding of withdrawals until compliance is established. ph979 reserves the right to request updated KYC documentation periodically.
5 Deposits & Payments
ph979 accepts deposits exclusively through authorised payment methods made available on the ph979.org platform, including but not limited to: GCash, Maya (formerly PayMaya), GrabPay, QR Ph, InstaPay, PesoNet, BDO Online Banking, BPI Mobile, Metrobank Direct, and 7-Eleven CLiQQ.
Minimum Deposit. The minimum deposit amount is Philippine Peso (PHP) 100 for e-wallet methods (GCash, Maya, GrabPay) and PHP 500 for direct bank transfers. ph979 does not charge a fee for processing deposits; however, your payment service provider may apply their own transaction fees, for which ph979 bears no responsibility.
Currency. All deposits, balances, wagers, and withdrawals on ph979 are denominated in Philippine Peso. There are no foreign currency conversions applied to any transaction on the ph979 platform.
Source of Funds. By depositing funds, you represent that:
- The funds are legitimately yours and are not derived from any unlawful activity;
- You are the authorised account holder of the payment instrument used to make the deposit;
- The deposit does not violate any applicable Philippine law or regulation.
6 Withdrawals
Withdrawal requests may only be submitted by Players who have completed KYC identity verification and whose Accounts are in good standing. Withdrawal amounts are limited to the Player's real-money Balance; Bonus Funds that have not met wagering requirements are not eligible for withdrawal.
Processing Times. ph979 targets the following processing timeframes following verification of the withdrawal request:
- GCash and Maya: 30 minutes to 1 hour
- GrabPay and QR Ph: 1 to 2 hours
- InstaPay: Up to 30 minutes
- BDO, BPI, Metrobank bank transfer: 1 to 3 business hours (requests submitted before 21:00 PST)
- PesoNet: Same business day
ph979 does not guarantee these processing times and accepts no liability for delays caused by payment providers, banking system outages, public holidays, or regulatory compliance checks. Withdrawals of an unusually large amount may be subject to additional security verification, which may extend processing time.
Withdrawal Method. Withdrawals will be returned to the same payment method used for the Player's most recent deposit, or to a verified payment method registered in the Player's name. ph979 does not process withdrawals to third-party accounts.
Minimum Withdrawal. The minimum withdrawal amount is PHP 200. ph979 does not charge a withdrawal fee; third-party fees imposed by your payment provider are your own responsibility.
7 Bonuses & Promotions
ph979 periodically offers bonuses, promotions, cashback, and other incentive programmes to eligible Players. All bonuses are subject to specific Terms and Conditions stated on the applicable promotion page, which form part of this agreement. The following general conditions apply to all ph979 bonuses unless otherwise specified:
- Wagering Requirements: Bonus Funds must be wagered a specified number of times (the "Wagering Requirement") before the bonus or any winnings derived from the bonus may be withdrawn. The specific multiplier is stated on each promotion page.
- Time Limits: Bonuses must be used within the stated validity period. Unused bonus funds expire automatically upon the deadline stated in the promotion terms.
- Game Eligibility: Not all games contribute equally toward Wagering Requirements. Contribution rates by game type are specified in the individual promotion terms. Live dealer bets typically contribute at a lower rate than slot bets.
- Maximum Bet: When a bonus is active, the maximum permitted bet per round or per sports event is typically capped at PHP 500 unless otherwise stated. Bets in excess of this cap while a bonus is active may result in the bonus being voided.
- Abuse Prevention: ph979 reserves the right to void any bonus and associated winnings where evidence of bonus abuse, collusion, or systematic exploitation of promotional offers is identified.
- One Bonus at a Time: Unless explicitly stated otherwise in a promotion, only one bonus may be active on a Player's Account at any time.
ph979 reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any promotion at any time without prior notice, provided that Players already participating in an active promotion at the time of modification shall not be materially disadvantaged thereby.
8 Betting Rules
All wagers placed on ph979 are subject to the following general rules, in addition to any game-specific or market-specific rules communicated on the platform:
- Finality of Settled Wagers: Once a wager has been settled and the outcome credited or debited from the Player's Balance, the settlement is final and binding, subject only to manifest error.
- Manifest Error: ph979 reserves the right to void or correct any wager settled as a result of a manifest error, including incorrect odds, incorrect game results displayed due to a technical fault, or incorrect market settlement. A manifest error is one that is obvious and undeniable to a reasonable person. Players may not exploit manifest errors, and any winnings derived from a manifest error may be voided.
- Technical Failures: In the event of a disconnection or technical failure during a game round or sports bet, ph979's system records will be used to determine the outcome. If the system records are insufficient to determine the result, the wager will be voided and the stake returned to the Player's Balance.
- Minimum and Maximum Wagers: Minimum and maximum bet limits vary by game and market and are displayed on the relevant game table or betting interface before any wager is placed.
- Integrity of Markets: ph979 reserves the right to suspend, void, or restrict betting on any sports market where there are reasonable grounds to believe the integrity of the event is compromised.
9 Prohibited Conduct
The following actions are strictly prohibited and constitute a material breach of these Terms. Players found to have engaged in any prohibited conduct will be subject to immediate Account suspension, withholding of funds, forfeiture of winnings, and where applicable, reporting to PAGCOR and other relevant Philippine authorities:
