21+ Only – Play Responsibly

Responsible Gaming at Scattermeter

Gaming on Scattermeter is meant to be entertaining. We want you to enjoy it that way — with tools, information, and support to help you stay in control of your play at all times.

Responsible Gaming Tools on Scattermeter

These tools are built into the platform and available to every player, free of charge

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit directly from your account settings. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Lowering your limit takes effect immediately.

Session Time Reminders

Set a session duration limit and receive an in-app reminder when your time is up. This is one of the simplest ways to avoid longer sessions than you originally planned.

Cooling-Off Period

If you need a short break, you can activate a cooling-off period of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time, your account is paused for all gaming activity while your balance is preserved.

Self-Exclusion

For players who need a longer break, self-exclusion closes your account for a defined period — or permanently. During self-exclusion, you cannot log in, deposit, or play. Contact our support team to activate this.

Loss Limits

Set a cap on how much you are willing to lose in a given period. Once that amount is reached, further bets are declined for the rest of the period. This helps you stick to a pre-decided budget.

Support Access

Our support team is available to discuss concerns about your gaming. If you or someone close to you is worried about gaming behavior, reach out through the in-app chat or email us at [email protected].

Gaming as Entertainment — Not a Source of Income

What Responsible Gaming Means

Responsible gaming means approaching slots, live casino, eBingo, and sports betting the same way you would approach any other form of leisure — with a clear budget, a time limit, and the understanding that the outcome of any game is random and unpredictable.

No strategy guarantees a win. No system can overcome the randomness built into certified game outcomes. On Scattermeter, whether you are playing a video slot in Manila, joining a live baccarat table from Cebu, or placing a PBA basketball bet from Davao, the result is determined by chance. Playing within your means is the foundation of a healthy experience on any gaming platform.

Gaming should never be used as a way to recover financial losses or generate income. If you find yourself thinking that way, it is time to take a break.

Setting a Budget That Works for You

The most practical thing you can do before gaming is decide how much you are comfortable spending — and then treat that amount as the entertainment cost, not as money you expect to get back. Here is how to build a realistic gaming budget:

  • Only use money that is not needed for essentials — food, rent, bills, transportation, and savings should always come first.
  • Decide on your gaming budget for the week or month before you log in, not while you are already in the middle of a session.
  • Use the deposit limit tool on Scattermeter to make that budget a technical limit, not just an intention.
  • Do not chase losses. If you have reached your budget, log out and come back another time.
  • Withdrawing winnings and separating them from your gaming balance helps keep your thinking clear.

These are straightforward habits, and they genuinely make a difference. A set budget transforms gaming from something stressful into something you can enjoy without second-guessing every session.

Managing Your Time

Time passes quickly when you are engaged in a game. That is not a flaw — it is how immersive entertainment works. The issue is when unplanned time turns into hours you did not intend to spend.

A few habits that help:

  • Decide on a session length before you start — 30 minutes, an hour, whatever feels right — and use the session reminder tool to enforce it.
  • Take regular breaks during longer sessions. Step away from the screen, drink water, and check in with how you are feeling.
  • Avoid gaming late at night when decision-making is naturally weaker and sessions tend to run longer than planned.
  • Gaming should fit around your day — not replace the things you need to do or the people you want to spend time with.

Self-Assessment Questions

Honestly answering these questions from time to time is a good habit. If you answer yes to more than two or three of them, consider reaching out to our support team or taking a break using one of the tools available in your account.

1Do you find yourself spending more on gaming than you originally planned?
2Have you tried to cut back on gaming but found it difficult to do so?
3Do you feel anxious, irritable, or restless when you are not able to play?
4Have you ever gamed to escape stress, boredom, or difficult emotions?
5Have you borrowed money or sold items to fund your gaming?
6Has gaming affected your relationships, work, or daily responsibilities?
7Do you find yourself chasing losses — betting more to recover what you have lost?

Warning Signs to Watch For

These are behaviors that suggest gaming may have moved beyond entertainment. If any of these apply to you, please use the self-exclusion or cooling-off tools, or contact us directly.

Spending money meant for household expenses, rent, or bills on gaming
Hiding gaming activity from family or close friends
Feeling that you need to bet larger and larger amounts to get the same feeling of excitement
Repeatedly returning to try to win back money you have lost
Neglecting work, school, or family obligations because of time spent gaming
Feeling guilt or shame after a gaming session, but continuing anyway

Protecting Younger People

Scattermeter is strictly for players aged 21 and above. We enforce this through mandatory age verification during the KYC process, and we take underage access seriously.

If you share a device with younger family members, we recommend logging out of your Scattermeter account after each session and keeping your login credentials private. If you believe someone under 21 has gained access to a Scattermeter account, please contact our support team immediately at [email protected] so we can investigate and address the issue.

Never share your account credentials with anyone, including family members. Each person using Scattermeter must have their own verified account.

Common Questions About Responsible Gaming

Deposit limits can be set from your account settings once you are logged in. You can choose a daily, weekly, or monthly limit in PHP. Reducing your limit takes effect right away. Increasing a limit may have a short waiting period to ensure the change is intentional.

A cooling-off period is a short-term pause — 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days — during which your account is inactive but your balance is preserved. Self-exclusion is a longer-term measure that closes access to your account for a defined period or permanently. Self-exclusion is recommended if you feel your gaming is becoming a problem.

A self-exclusion period is taken seriously and is not reversed early by request. Once the period ends, reactivation requires contacting our support team and a brief cooling-off before access is restored. Permanent self-exclusion cannot be reversed.

You must be at least 21 years old to register and play on Scattermeter. Age is verified during the KYC process before any withdrawal can be made. Accounts found to belong to underage players will be closed and any balance held pending review.

If you are concerned about someone close to you, the most direct step is to have an honest conversation with them about what you have noticed. You can also contact our support team at [email protected] to discuss the situation confidentially. We take these concerns seriously and will provide guidance on the options available.

Yes. Your account transaction history shows a full record of deposits, withdrawals, and bets placed. Reviewing this regularly is a healthy habit and helps you stay aware of your actual spending versus your intended budget.
