What Responsible Gaming Means at New Plus

Responsible gaming isn't a page we publish to tick a compliance box. At new plus, it's a practical commitment that shapes how the platform is designed and how the team operates every single day. Every Filipino player on new plus has access to tools that help them manage their gaming activity — and those tools are built in, not buried in a settings menu.

The idea is simple: gambling is a form of entertainment. It should be enjoyable. It should fit within your life — your budget, your time, your priorities. The moment it starts to feel like an obligation, or when chasing losses becomes the goal rather than the game itself, that's when things have moved outside the boundaries of responsible gaming.

new plus doesn't pretend this never happens. Problem gambling is a real issue in the Philippines and in online gaming globally. What distinguishes a responsible platform is whether it takes that reality seriously and acts on it. We do — through the tools we offer, the training our support team receives, and the way we monitor player behaviour for signs that someone may need help.

Whether you're a casual player who drops by new plus a few times a week for some slots, or a sports fan who likes to follow PBA and MPL with live bets, the same principles apply: play within your means, know when to step back, and use the tools new plus provides to stay in control.

Key principle at new plus: Entertainment first, always. If gaming is no longer fun for you, that's a signal worth paying attention to — and new plus will help you act on it.

New Plus Safe Play Principles

  • Only gamble with money you can afford to lose — never use funds set aside for rent, bills, or family needs.
  • Set a budget before you start and stick to it. new plus deposit limits make this automatic.
  • Treat gambling as entertainment, not a way to make money or recover financial losses.
  • Set a time limit for each session. new plus session reminders will nudge you when you reach it.
  • Never gamble when you're stressed, upset, or under the influence of alcohol.
  • Take regular breaks — even on days when you're winning.
  • Don't chase losses. If you've hit your limit for the day, close the session.
  • Balance your gaming time with other activities — family, work, hobbies, rest.
  • If gaming feels like something you need rather than something you enjoy, reach out for help immediately.

Responsible Gaming Tools Built Into New Plus

These aren't afterthoughts. Every tool here is available to every new plus player, accessible through your account settings, and enforced immediately when you set them.

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much you can deposit into your new plus account. Once set, the limit takes effect immediately and cannot be increased without a cooling-off period. Reducing your limit happens right away.

Loss Limits

Define the maximum amount you're willing to lose within a set period on new plus. When you reach that threshold, your session is paused automatically. It's a practical way to enforce the budget you set before you start playing.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum session duration. new plus will notify you when you've been playing for that amount of time. This is particularly useful if you tend to lose track of time during live casino or in-play betting sessions.

Reality Checks

Periodic on-screen reminders that show you how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered in the current session. A quick snapshot of reality that helps you make informed decisions about whether to continue.

Cooling-Off Period

Take a short break from new plus — 24 hours, 48 hours, a week, or a month. During a cooling-off period your account is suspended and marketing communications are paused. You can return after the period ends if you choose to.

Self-Exclusion

For players who need a longer or permanent break, new plus offers full self-exclusion. Your account is suspended, all marketing stops, and you will not be able to register a new account during the exclusion period.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Walang hiya sa pag-amin na may problema. Problem gambling can affect anyone — it doesn't discriminate based on how long you've been playing or how responsible you thought you were being. The most important thing is recognising the signs early.

Here are some of the most common indicators that gambling may have moved from entertainment into something more problematic. If several of these apply to you — or to someone you know — it's worth taking action now rather than later.

Chasing Losses

Continuing to play or increasing your bets specifically to recover money you've already lost is one of the clearest signs of problem gambling. Losses are part of gaming — they can't always be recovered in the next session.

Losing Track of Time

Regularly playing much longer than you intended, or losing track of hours passing while gaming, especially when other responsibilities are being neglected.

Gambling with Essential Money

Using funds meant for rent, food, utilities, or family needs for gambling. If your gaming budget and your living budget are starting to overlap, that's a serious concern.

Hiding Your Gambling

Concealing how much time or money you spend on new plus or other platforms from family members or close friends is often a sign that you already know something is off.

Gambling to Escape or Cope

Turning to gaming as a primary way to deal with stress, anxiety, loneliness, or difficult emotions rather than as a form of entertainment is a significant warning sign.

Unsuccessful Attempts to Stop

Repeatedly deciding to quit or cut back — and finding that you can't follow through — is a clear indicator that professional support may be needed.

If you recognise these signs: Don't wait for things to get worse. Contact the new plus support team now to activate a cooling-off period or self-exclusion. You can also reach out to the support resources listed further down this page. Huwag mag-atubili.

Is Someone You Know Affected?

Problem gambling doesn't just affect the person with the habit — it impacts families, relationships, and finances. If you're worried about a family member or friend who plays on new plus or any other platform, here's what you can do:

  • Talk to them calmly and without judgment — make it clear you're concerned, not angry.
  • Encourage them to reach out to new plus support or use self-exclusion tools.
  • Seek advice from a professional counsellor or support organisation.
  • Take care of your own wellbeing too — living with someone affected by problem gambling is stressful.

Quick Self-Check: How's Your Gaming?

This isn't a clinical tool — it's just a set of honest questions to help you reflect. If you answer "yes" to several of these, it might be time to use new plus's responsible gaming tools or speak to someone you trust.

Reflect on the past 30 days of your gaming activity

Read each question and think honestly about whether it applies to you.

1

Have you spent more money on new plus or other gaming platforms than you originally planned to?

2

Have you gambled using money that was meant for other important expenses like bills, groceries, or family needs?

3

Have you tried to stop or reduce your gambling and found it difficult?

4

Have you felt restless, irritable, or anxious when not gambling?

5

Have you placed bets to try to win back money you had already lost?

6

Have you hidden your gaming activity or the amount you've spent from people close to you?

7

Has gambling caused any problems with your relationships, work, or finances in the past month?

Worth taking action. Answering yes to even one or two of these questions is worth taking seriously. It doesn't mean you have a severe problem — but it does mean your gaming habits may benefit from some boundaries. Consider setting deposit or session limits on new plus, or take a short cooling-off period to reset. If you're genuinely concerned, reach out to our support team or a professional resource. Huwag mahiyang humingi ng tulong.
Good to hear — keep it that way. It sounds like you're gaming within healthy boundaries right now. The best time to set deposit limits and session reminders on new plus is when you don't feel like you need them — they're much easier to stick to when they're in place before a session starts. Stay aware, and check back in with yourself regularly.

How Self-Exclusion Works on New Plus

Self-exclusion is for players who need a more serious, enforced break from gaming. It's not a sign of weakness — using this tool is one of the most responsible decisions you can make if you feel that gaming is getting out of hand.

When you request self-exclusion on new plus, the following happens immediately:

1

Account Suspended

Your new plus account is immediately suspended. You will not be able to log in, deposit, or place any bets for the duration of your exclusion period.

2

Marketing Stopped

All promotional emails, SMS messages, and push notifications from new plus are halted. We will not send you offers or bonuses during your exclusion.

3

Balance Secured

Your real money balance is held securely. After completing the exclusion period and passing identity verification, your funds remain available for withdrawal.

4

Cooling-Off Before Return

For longer exclusion periods, a return to new plus requires a cooling-off and review process. We take the return journey as seriously as the exclusion itself.

To activate self-exclusion immediately, contact new plus support via live chat or email at support@newplus.best. The team is available 24/7 and will action your request without delay.

18+ — Strictly Enforced on New Plus

The minimum age to register and play on new plus is 18 years old. This is a hard rule, not a guideline. We enforce it through our identity verification process and we take reports of underage access seriously.

  • All new plus accounts require age verification before withdrawals are processed, and may be required earlier at our discretion.
  • Acceptable ID includes PhilSys (national ID), driver's licence, passport, SSS, UMID, or other government-issued ID showing date of birth.
  • Accounts found to belong to players under 18 will be closed immediately and any deposits refunded to the source payment method.
  • If you believe a minor has accessed new plus using your payment details, contact support immediately for assistance.

Parents and guardians: If you share a device with younger family members, ensure your new plus account is logged out and your GCash or Maya credentials are not saved on shared devices. Consider using parental control software to restrict access to gaming sites.

Common Responsible Gaming Questions

Yes. Deposit limits, loss limits, and session time limits can all be set directly from your account settings on new plus. Navigate to Settings > Responsible Gaming and you'll find all available tools. If you'd prefer help from our team, live chat support is available 24/7.

Self-exclusion is actioned immediately. Once you submit your request through account settings or via live chat, your new plus account is suspended without delay. All marketing is stopped at the same time. There is no waiting period before the exclusion is effective.

No — and this is intentional. Reducing a deposit limit takes effect immediately on new plus, but increasing a limit is subject to a mandatory cooling-off period before the change applies. This prevents impulsive decisions made in the heat of a gaming session from overriding your earlier, more considered limit.

Your real money balance is secured throughout your self-exclusion period on new plus. Any active bonus funds will be forfeited. After your exclusion period ends and you complete the return process, your real money balance remains available for withdrawal.

Yes. Problem gambling support is available in the Philippines. We encourage players to seek professional help if they are struggling. Additionally, the new plus support team at support@newplus.best is available 24/7 and can connect you with appropriate resources and activate any responsible gaming tools on your account immediately.

No. new plus will never contact you to encourage you to end a self-exclusion period early or to offer you bonuses while you are excluded. If you receive any such communication, please report it to support@newplus.best immediately as it may indicate an account security issue.

How New Plus Upholds Responsible Gaming

These are the specific things new plus does — not just policies on a page, but active practices built into how the platform runs.

Staff Training

The new plus support team is trained to identify signs of problem gambling and respond with empathy and practical guidance — not scripted brush-offs or redirects back to the games.

Account Behaviour Monitoring

new plus monitors account activity patterns for indicators of problem gambling. Where concerning behaviour is detected, we may proactively reach out to the player or apply protective measures.

No Targeting of Vulnerable Players

Players who have activated self-exclusion, cooling-off periods, or responsible gaming limits on new plus are automatically removed from all marketing campaigns and bonus offers.
