Tools and Limits You Can Set Right Now

vibet gives every registered player direct access to a set of practical controls designed to keep your gaming experience within healthy boundaries. These tools are available through your account at any time.

Deposit Limits

You can set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit on your vibet account to make sure you never spend more than you are comfortable with. Once a limit is in place, it takes effect immediately and cannot be increased without a mandatory cooling-off period. This gives you a reliable financial boundary that stays in place even during moments of impulse. Lowering your limit, on the other hand, takes effect right away with no delay. We strongly encourage all players to set a deposit limit when they first register.

Session Time Reminders

Losing track of time is one of the most common ways gaming sessions extend beyond what was originally planned. vibet allows you to set session time reminders that notify you when you have been playing for a set duration, such as 30 minutes or one hour. When the reminder appears, you can choose to continue or log out — the decision is always yours. These reminders are a simple but effective way to stay conscious of how long you have been playing. You can update your reminder preferences at any time through your account settings.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel that you need a complete break from gaming, vibet offers a self-exclusion option that temporarily or permanently blocks access to your account. You can choose a self-exclusion period ranging from a short cooling-off break to a permanent closure, depending on what you feel is right for your situation. During a self-exclusion period, you will not be able to log in, deposit, or participate in any games on the platform. We take self-exclusion requests seriously and process them promptly to ensure your protection. If you are unsure which option is right for you, our support team can help guide you through the process.

Loss Limits

A loss limit lets you define the maximum amount you are willing to lose within a set time period — daily, weekly, or monthly. Once your loss limit is reached, your account will automatically prevent further wagering until the limit period resets. This tool is particularly useful for players who want a hard financial boundary that does not rely on willpower alone. Like deposit limits, loss limits can be reduced immediately but require a waiting period before they can be increased. Setting a realistic loss limit is one of the most practical steps you can take to protect your finances.

Cooling-Off Period

A cooling-off period is a short-term break from gaming that you can activate when you feel you need some time away without committing to a full self-exclusion. You can set a cooling-off period of 24 hours, 48 hours, or up to 30 days depending on your needs. During this time, your account remains open but you will not be able to place any bets or make deposits. This option is ideal for players who want to pause and reflect without permanently closing their account. The cooling-off period activates immediately once you request it through your account settings.

Reality Checks

Reality checks are periodic on-screen notifications that appear during your gaming session to remind you of how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered or won or lost during that session. These prompts are designed to interrupt automatic play patterns and encourage you to make a conscious decision about whether to continue. You can set the frequency of reality checks to suit your preferences — every 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or at another interval you choose. When a reality check appears, you will see a summary of your current session activity. This feature is especially helpful for players who enjoy longer gaming sessions and want to stay informed throughout.

Recognising When Gaming Becomes a Concern

Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of how long they have been playing or how much they typically wager. Being aware of the warning signs is the first step toward getting the right support.

Warning Signs to Watch For

  • Spending more money on gaming than you originally planned or can afford to lose.
  • Chasing losses by continuing to play in an attempt to win back money you have already lost.
  • Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when you are not able to play.
  • Neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities because of time spent gaming.
  • Borrowing money or selling personal belongings to fund gaming activity.
  • Lying to friends or family members about how much time or money you spend on gaming.
  • Using gaming as a way to escape stress, anxiety, depression, or other personal difficulties.

What to Do If You Recognise These Signs

If you recognise any of these warning signs in yourself or someone you care about, it is important to take action sooner rather than later. Start by using the self-exclusion or cooling-off tools available in your vibet account to create immediate distance from gaming. Speak openly with someone you trust — a friend, family member, or professional counsellor — about what you are experiencing. There are dedicated support organisations in the Philippines that provide free, confidential assistance to people affected by problem gambling. Remember that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness, and that recovery is entirely possible with the right support in place.

Need to talk to someone? The National Council on Problem Gambling and similar Philippine support services offer free, confidential help. You can also reach the vibet support team directly through your account dashboard at any time. For more answers, visit our FAQ page.
