Responsible Gaming at smjl

smjl Casino believes that gaming should always be fun, safe, and within your control. We provide every Filipino player with the tools, information, and support needed to keep gambling a healthy form of entertainment — never a problem.

⚠️

PAGCOR Advisory: Gambling is addictive. Know when to stop. If gambling is affecting your life or the lives of people around you, please use the responsible gaming tools available in your smjl account or contact our support team immediately.


smjl Responsible Gaming Tools

We've built these features directly into your smjl account so you can manage your play at any time — no waiting, no hassle.

💰
Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits on your smjl account. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a 7-day cooling-off period to prevent impulsive decisions.

⏱️
Session Time Reminders

Set a session time limit and smjl will notify you when you've been playing for your chosen duration. It's easy to lose track of time — this tool keeps you aware without interrupting your game.

❄️
Cooling-Off Period

Take a short break from smjl Casino by activating a cooling-off period of 1 day, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time your account is temporarily suspended and you cannot log in or deposit.

🚫
Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a longer break, smjl offers self-exclusion periods of 6 months, 1 year, or permanent exclusion. Self-exclusion is irreversible for the chosen period and cannot be lifted early.

📊
Reality Check

Enable reality check notifications to receive a summary of your session activity — time played, amount wagered, and net result — at regular intervals you choose. Knowledge is your best tool.

🆘
Support Access

Our responsible gaming support team is available 24/7. Whether you need help setting limits, activating self-exclusion, or just want to talk, smjl's team is here for every Filipino player who needs it.


21+

Strictly 21 and Above

smjl Casino enforces the 21+ age requirement mandated by PAGCOR for all online casino-style gaming in the Philippines. No exceptions. Every new player must complete identity verification before their account is activated.

If you suspect a minor is attempting to access smjl, please contact our support team immediately at [email protected]. We take underage gambling extremely seriously and will act immediately on any report.

Is Gambling Becoming a Problem?

Responsible gaming starts with self-awareness. smjl encourages all players to regularly check in with themselves. If any of the following signs sound familiar, it may be time to use our self-exclusion tools or seek support.

⚠ Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

  • Spending more money on gambling than you can afford to lose
  • Borrowing money or selling belongings to fund gambling
  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
  • Chasing losses — continuing to play to try to win back money you've lost
  • Lying to family or friends about how much time or money you spend gambling
  • Neglecting work, school, family, or personal responsibilities because of gambling
  • Using gambling as a way to escape stress, depression, or personal problems
  • Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling on your own
  • Gambling with money set aside for rent, bills, or daily expenses

Recognising these signs is the first step. smjl Casino is here to help — not judge. Use the tools in your account or reach out to our support team any time.


How to Activate Responsible Gaming Tools

All smjl responsible gaming tools are available directly in your account settings. Here's how to access them.

Log In to Your smjl Account

Visit smjl.club and log in using your registered email and password. All responsible gaming tools are accessible from your account dashboard — no need to contact support first.

2️⃣
Go to Account Settings

Click on your profile icon in the top right corner of smjl.club and select "Account Settings". From there, navigate to the "Responsible Gaming" tab in the settings menu.

3️⃣
Choose Your Tool

Select from deposit limits, session reminders, cooling-off periods, or self-exclusion. Each tool has a clear description and confirmation step so you understand exactly what you're activating.

4️⃣
Confirm & Activate

Confirm your selection. Restrictions take effect immediately. For self-exclusion, smjl will send a confirmation email to your registered address and your account will be suspended right away.

5️⃣
Need Help? Contact Support

If you'd prefer to activate any responsible gaming tool through our support team rather than self-service, contact us at [email protected]. Our team is available 24/7 and will action your request immediately.

6️⃣
Review Regularly

smjl recommends reviewing your responsible gaming settings at least once a month. Your circumstances change — your limits should reflect your current situation, not the one you had when you first signed up.


Quick Self-Assessment

Answer these questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to three or more, smjl strongly encourages you to use our self-exclusion tool or speak with a professional counsellor.

Ask yourself honestly:

Do you spend more time or money gambling than you originally planned?

Have you ever hidden your gambling activity from family or friends?

Do you feel the urge to gamble with larger amounts to get the same excitement?

Have you tried to cut back on gambling but found it difficult?

Do you gamble to escape problems, stress, or negative feelings?

Have you ever borrowed money or sold something to fund gambling?

Has gambling caused conflict with your family, partner, or friends?

Do you feel restless or irritable when you try to stop gambling?

If you answered yes to 3 or more: Please consider activating smjl's self-exclusion feature or reaching out to our responsible gaming support team. You are not alone, and help is available. Gambling is addictive. Know when to stop.
