Important Notice: These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("Player", "User", "you") and em88 ("em88", "we", "us", "our"). These Terms govern your access to and use of the em88 website at em88.org, its mobile-optimized interface, and all games, services, and features offered therein. If you do not agree to these Terms in their entirety, you must immediately cease using the em88 platform.

By accessing, registering on, or using any part of the em88 platform, you unconditionally accept and agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions, together with our Privacy Policy and any game-specific rules published on the platform. These documents are incorporated herein by reference and form the complete agreement between you and em88.
Your continued use of em88 following any update or amendment to these Terms constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically. em88 reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time, and material changes will be communicated to registered players via the email address on file or through a prominent notice on the platform.
These Terms apply to all users of em88, including registered account holders, guests browsing the platform, and any person accessing em88 from within the Republic of the Philippines or from any other jurisdiction where access to em88 is lawful.
02 Eligibility & Age Requirement
21+ Age Restriction: In accordance with Philippine gaming regulations and PAGCOR guidelines, you must be at least 21 years of age to register and play at em88. em88 strictly prohibits underage gaming. Age verification is required during the registration process and may be requested at any time during your use of the platform.
To be eligible to register and maintain an account with em88, you must satisfy all of the following conditions at all times:
- You are at least 21 years of age;

03 Account Registration
3.1 One Account Per Player
Each player is permitted to hold only one (1) registered account with em88. The creation of multiple accounts by a single individual — whether using different names, email addresses, mobile numbers, payment methods, or device identifiers — is strictly prohibited and constitutes a material breach of these Terms. em88 employs technical and manual detection methods to identify duplicate accounts. Where duplicate accounts are identified, em88 reserves the right to close all associated accounts and forfeit any balances therein.
3.2 Accuracy of Registration Information
You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during the registration process and to update such information promptly if it changes. em88 is not liable for any loss or inconvenience arising from your failure to maintain accurate account information. Providing false, misleading, or fraudulent registration information is grounds for immediate account termination.
3.3 Account Security
You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your em88 login credentials, including your username, password, and any one-time passwords (OTPs) sent to your registered Philippine mobile number. You must not share your login credentials with any third party. em88 will not be held liable for any loss resulting from unauthorized access to your account where such access resulted from your failure to keep your credentials secure. You must notify em88 immediately if you suspect unauthorized access to your account.
3.4 Know Your Customer (KYC) Verification
em88 is required to conduct identity verification in accordance with applicable anti-money laundering (AML) regulations. You may be required to submit government-issued identification (such as a Philippine passport, SSS ID, UMID, or driver's license), proof of address, and proof of payment method ownership. Withdrawals may be held pending satisfactory completion of KYC verification. em88 reserves the right to request additional documentation at any time.
04 Deposits & Withdrawals
4.1 Accepted Payment Methods
em88 accepts deposits and processes withdrawals in Philippine Peso (PHP / ₱) via the following payment methods: GCash, PayMaya, Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI), Banco de Oro (BDO), and Metrobank. Additional payment methods may be added or removed at em88's discretion. All transactions are conducted in Philippine Peso; no currency conversion is applied.
4.2 Deposit Terms
All deposits must be funded from a payment account registered in your own name. em88 does not accept deposits from third-party accounts. Minimum and maximum deposit limits apply and are displayed in the em88 cashier at the time of transaction. em88 reserves the right to refuse or reverse any deposit that cannot be verified as originating from an account in the player's name.
4.3 Withdrawal Terms
Withdrawal requests are subject to completion of KYC verification and satisfaction of any applicable bonus wagering requirements. em88 aims to process withdrawal requests promptly; processing times may vary depending on the payment method selected and the volume of pending requests. em88 reserves the right to conduct additional security checks before processing withdrawals above certain thresholds. Withdrawals will only be made to a payment account registered in the same name as the em88 account.
4.4 Anti-Money Laundering
em88 is committed to preventing money laundering and the financing of illegal activities. em88 reserves the right to report suspicious transactions to the appropriate Philippine authorities, including the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), without prior notice to the account holder. Accounts suspected of being used for money laundering or other financial crimes will be suspended immediately pending investigation.
05 Bonuses & Promotions
em88 offers various bonuses and promotional offers to eligible players from time to time. All bonuses and promotions are subject to specific terms and conditions that will be published alongside each offer. In the event of any conflict between the general Terms and the specific terms of a promotion, the specific promotion terms shall prevail with respect to that promotion.
- Wagering Requirements: Bonus funds are subject to wagering requirements before they may be withdrawn. The applicable wagering multiplier will be stated in the promotion terms.
- Eligibility: Bonuses are available to eligible registered players only. em88 reserves the right to determine eligibility at its sole discretion.
- Abuse: Any attempt to abuse, exploit, or circumvent bonus terms — including through the use of multiple accounts, coordinated play, or arbitrage strategies — will result in the forfeiture of the bonus and any winnings derived therefrom, and may result in account closure.
- Expiry: Bonus funds and free spins expire within the timeframe stated in the applicable promotion terms. Expired bonuses cannot be reinstated.
- Modification: em88 reserves the right to modify, suspend, or withdraw any promotion at any time without prior notice.
Promotion Integrity: em88 promotions are designed for genuine recreational players. em88 monitors wagering patterns and reserves the right to void bonus winnings where it determines, in its reasonable judgment, that a player has engaged in low-risk or systematic wagering strategies designed to exploit bonus terms rather than play for entertainment.
06 Game Rules & Fair Play
All games available on the em88 platform — including live dealer games, slots, fishing games, and bingo — are governed by individual game rules published within each game interface. By participating in any game, you agree to be bound by the applicable game rules.
em88 uses certified Random Number Generator (RNG) technology for all non-live games to ensure that game outcomes are genuinely random and not influenced by any party. Live dealer games are conducted by professional dealers in monitored studio environments. em88 does not manipulate game outcomes in any way.
In the event of a technical malfunction, disconnection, or system error during a game round, em88 reserves the right to void the affected round and return the wager to the player's account. em88's decision in such matters is final. em88 is not liable for any loss of winnings resulting from technical failures beyond its reasonable control.
