phcoin reserves the right to request documentary proof of eligibility at any time, including government-issued identification, proof of address, and proof of payment method ownership. Failure to provide satisfactory documentation within the timeframe specified may result in Account suspension and withholding of pending withdrawals pending verification.
Account Registration
Each Player is permitted to hold one (1) Account only on the phcoin Platform. The creation of duplicate, multiple, or shared Accounts is strictly prohibited and will result in the permanent closure of all associated Accounts and forfeiture of all balances therein.
When registering, you agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information, including your full legal name, date of birth, residential address, email address, and mobile number. You further agree to update this information promptly if it changes.
phcoin is required under Philippine law and PAGCOR regulations to conduct identity verification (KYC) on all Accounts. You agree to submit the following documents upon request:
- A valid government-issued photo identification (e.g., Philippine passport, driver's license, SSS ID, PhilSys National ID, UMID).
- A recent proof of residential address (e.g., utility bill, bank statement, barangay clearance) dated within 90 days.
- Proof of ownership of the payment method(s) used to deposit or withdraw funds (e.g., screenshot of registered GCash account, bank account statement).
Accounts that have not completed KYC verification may be subject to deposit caps, withdrawal holds, and restricted access to certain game categories. phcoin will not process withdrawal requests from unverified Accounts beyond the minimum KYC threshold established by PAGCOR guidelines.
Account Security
You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Account login credentials, including your username, password, and any one-time passwords (OTPs) sent to your registered mobile number. You must not share your credentials with any other person under any circumstances.
phcoin will never ask for your full password via email, live chat, or telephone. If you receive any communication purporting to be from phcoin requesting your password or OTP, treat it as fraudulent and contact our support team immediately at [email protected].
- You must notify phcoin immediately if you suspect unauthorized access to your Account.

- You are advised to use a strong, unique password and to enable any two-factor authentication (2FA) features made available on the Platform.
- Logging in from shared or public devices is strongly discouraged. Always log out fully after each session.
Deposits and Withdrawals
All transactions on the phcoin Platform are processed in Philippine Peso (PHP / ₱). phcoin accepts deposits and processes withdrawals through the following approved payment methods: GCash, PayMaya (Maya), BPI Online Banking, BDO Online Banking, Metrobank bank transfer, and 7-Eleven CLiQQ.
By making a deposit, you confirm that the funds being deposited are legitimately yours and are not derived from any illegal or fraudulent activity. phcoin is required to report suspicious transactions to the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) of the Philippines under the Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA) and its amendments.
- Deposits: Are typically credited to your Account within seconds for GCash and PayMaya transactions. Bank transfers may take up to one (1) banking day.
- Withdrawals: Are processed within fifteen (15) minutes on average for GCash and PayMaya, subject to verification status. Bank transfers may take one (1) to three (3) banking days.
- Withdrawal to source: Withdrawals will generally be returned to the same payment method used to make the most recent qualifying deposit, in accordance with anti-money laundering requirements.
- Withdrawal holds: phcoin reserves the right to place a temporary hold on withdrawal requests pending KYC verification or security review. You will be notified of any hold and the steps required to resolve it.
- Dormant Account fees: Accounts with no login activity for a period of twelve (12) consecutive months may be classified as dormant and subject to a monthly administrative fee of ₱50, deducted from the remaining balance, until the Account is reactivated or the balance reaches zero.
phcoin does not charge fees on standard GCash and PayMaya deposit and withdrawal transactions. Fees imposed by your bank or e-wallet provider are outside phcoin's control and are your sole responsibility.
Bonuses and Promotions
phcoin may from time to time offer bonuses, free bets, deposit matches, cashback, and other promotional incentives to eligible Players. All bonuses are subject to individual promotion terms, which will be communicated at the point of offer and accessible from the Promotions section of the Platform.
Unless otherwise stated in a promotion's specific terms, the following general bonus conditions apply to all phcoin promotions:
- Bonuses are available to eligible, fully verified Philippine resident Players aged 21 and above only.
- Each promotional offer may only be claimed once per Player, per household, and per device, unless explicitly stated otherwise.
- Bonus Funds carry a wagering requirement that must be met in full before any portion of Bonus Funds or associated winnings may be withdrawn. The applicable wagering requirement will be stated in the promotion's terms.
- Wagering requirements must be completed within the validity period specified for each bonus. Bonus Funds not wagered within the validity period will expire and be removed from your Account without notice.
- phcoin reserves the right to amend, suspend, or withdraw any promotion at any time and without prior notice if there is evidence of abuse, technical error, or if required by regulatory obligations.
- Winnings derived from bonus play that are found to have resulted from exploitation, collusion, or any form of bonus abuse will be voided and forfeited.
- In cases where a bonus has been credited in error, phcoin reserves the right to reclaim the bonus amount and any associated winnings.
Gameplay and Betting Rules
All games on the phcoin Platform are governed by their respective game rules, which are accessible within each game interface. In the event of a conflict between game-specific rules and these Terms, the game-specific rules shall prevail for gameplay matters.
- Game outcomes: All digital game outcomes are determined by certified Random Number Generators (RNGs). Live dealer game outcomes are determined by physical game equipment and real-time dealing. phcoin does not influence game outcomes in any way beyond the mathematically defined house edge built into each game by its provider.
- Minimum and maximum bets: Each game carries its own minimum and maximum bet limits, displayed within the game interface. These limits may vary by game category, Account verification level, and applicable regulatory caps.
- Sports betting: All sports bets are governed by phcoin's Sports Betting Rules, including rules on settlement, void bets, early cash-out, and event cancellations. Odds are subject to change before a bet is confirmed. Only bets confirmed at the stated odds are binding.
- Malfunctions: In the event of a technical malfunction or game error, phcoin reserves the right to void affected bets and refund the staked amount to the Player's Account. Payouts generated by a malfunction are not valid and will not be honoured.
- Disconnection: phcoin is not liable for losses arising from internet disconnection or device failure during gameplay. Most games support reconnection recovery, but outcomes determined before reconnection are final.
Prohibited Conduct
The following activities are strictly prohibited on the phcoin Platform. Engaging in any prohibited conduct will result in immediate Account suspension, permanent closure, forfeiture of all funds, and may be referred to relevant Philippine law enforcement authorities:
- Registering more than one Account, or using an Account on behalf of another person.

Responsible Gaming
phcoin is committed to promoting responsible gaming and takes its obligations under PAGCOR's responsible gaming framework seriously. We believe gambling should be a form of entertainment – not a financial strategy, coping mechanism, or source of income.
The following responsible gaming tools are available to all registered Players from within their Account settings at no charge:
- Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on the total amount you can deposit into your Account.
- Loss Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly caps on the maximum net losses you can incur.
- Session Time Limits: Configure alerts and automatic logouts when a specified session duration is reached.
- Reality Check Notifications: Receive periodic on-screen notifications showing your net gaming session position and time elapsed.
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily suspend your Account for a minimum cooling-off period of 24 hours, or permanently self-exclude. Permanent self-exclusion requests are irrevocable for a minimum period of five (5) years.
Responsible gaming limit reductions take effect immediately. Increases to existing limits are subject to a 72-hour cooling-off period before becoming active. Self-exclusion takes effect within 24 hours of request confirmation.

Privacy and Data Protection
phcoin collects, processes, and stores your personal data in accordance with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and its Implementing Rules and Regulations.

- You are identified as an ineligible Player, including being under the age of 21 or a resident of a prohibited jurisdiction.
- phcoin is required to do so to comply with a PAGCOR directive, court order, or other legal obligation.
