Nostar pledges: Safe Play. Fair Games. Real Support. — for every Filipino player, every day.
We've built these features right into your Nostar account — no extra download, no hassle.
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap directly from your account settings. Once you hit your limit, the system won't allow additional top-ups until the period resets. This is the most effective way to protect your budget. Itakda mo na ngayon bago ka pa magsimula.
Nostar can notify you after you've been playing for 30, 60, or 90 minutes. It's easy to lose track of time when you're in the middle of a hot streak, so let the system remind you to take a breather. Walang tatalo sa mindfulness.
Need a short break from gaming? Activate a cool-off period of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Your account stays open but you cannot place bets or make deposits during this time. Great for those moments when you need to step back and reset.
If you feel that gaming has become a real problem, you can self-exclude for 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. Once active, self-exclusion cannot be reversed until the period ends. This is the strongest protective tool we offer, and we encourage anyone who needs it to use it without hesitation.
Your Nostar dashboard gives you a transparent view of your full gaming and transaction history. Know exactly how much you've deposited, wagered, won, and withdrawn over any time period. Transparency is the foundation of responsible gaming — you can't manage what you can't see.
Our responsible gaming support team is available around the clock. Whether you want to set a limit, ask about self-exclusion, or just talk to someone, our team is here — no judgment, no pressure. Handa kaming tumulong anytime you need us.
Responsible gaming means treating online casino play for what it truly is: a form of entertainment, not a source of income or a way to solve financial problems. When done right, gaming is sulit — you get excitement, fun, and the thrill of chance for a set entertainment budget you're fully comfortable losing.
At Nostar, we define responsible gaming across four pillars:
Problem gambling can affect anyone — regardless of age, income, or how long they've been playing. Here are the red flags to watch for in yourself or someone you care about.
If two or more of the above sound familiar, please consider using our self-exclusion tool or reaching out to a professional support organisation. Walang hiya sa humingi ng tulong — it's the smart move.
These habits won't just protect your wallet — they'll actually make your gaming more enjoyable. Sulit na sulit ang bawat piso.
| Set a strict budget before you start. Decide upfront the maximum amount you're comfortable losing — not winning — and treat it as the cost of entertainment, like movie tickets or a dinner out. |
| Never chase losses. If you hit your budget, stop. Log out. Take a walk. Pag-usapan mo ang other hobbies. Tomorrow is a new day and a new session. |
| Take regular breaks. Use our session reminders or simply set a timer on your phone. Even a 10-minute break every hour can dramatically improve your decision-making at the tables. |
| Only gamble when you're in a good headspace. Avoid gaming when you're stressed, tired, upset, or under the influence. Emotional gambling leads to poor decisions. |
| Learn the games before you bet real money. Nostar offers demo modes on many games. Use them. Understanding variance, RTP, and game mechanics helps you set realistic expectations. |
| Talk about it openly. If you play regularly, let a trusted friend or family member know. Having someone in your corner who can spot changes in behaviour is one of the best safeguards you can put in place. |
| Use your winnings wisely. If you're lucky enough to land a big win, withdraw a meaningful portion of it. Don't put your entire winnings right back into the game. |
