At merryjili, we believe that gaming should always be a source of entertainment — never stress, never hardship. We take our duty of care to every Filipino player seriously, and we've built a full suite of tools and resources to help you stay in control at all times.
Minimum Age Requirement
Under Philippine Law
Responsible gaming isn't just a checkbox for us — it's built into every layer of the merryjili platform. Here's what we do to protect every player, every day.
Every merryjili account goes through mandatory age and identity verification before a single peso can be deposited. We accept Philippine National ID, passport, driver's license, SSS, GSIS, and PhilHealth ID. No exceptions — ever.
Set your own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap directly from your account settings. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a 24-hour cooling-off period — a deliberate friction designed to protect you.
If you feel you need a break, merryjili's self-exclusion tool lets you lock your account for a period of your choosing — from 30 days up to permanent exclusion. During exclusion, you will not receive any marketing communications from merryjili.
It's easy to lose track of time when you're in the zone. merryjili's session reminders send you a pop-up notification after a duration you set yourself — 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours — so you always know how long you've been playing.
Our reality check tool displays a periodic summary of your session — total time played, net wins or losses, and your current balance. It's a simple but powerful way to stay grounded and make informed decisions about your play.
Our dedicated support team is available around the clock to assist with any responsible gaming concerns. Whether you're in Manila, Cebu, Davao, or anywhere in the Philippines, help is always just a message away at [email protected].
Under Philippine law and PAGCOR regulations, participation in casino-style gaming is strictly limited to individuals who are at least 21 years of age. merryjili enforces this requirement without exception at every stage of the player journey.
During registration, every applicant must submit a valid government-issued ID that confirms their date of birth. Our KYC team manually reviews each submission. Accounts where age cannot be verified are suspended immediately and any funds held are returned through the original payment method.
If you are a parent or guardian and suspect that a minor has accessed merryjili, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. We will investigate and act without delay.
Underage gambling is illegal in the Philippines. Any account found to be operated by a person under 21 years of age will be permanently closed and reported to the relevant authorities in accordance with Philippine law.
