The initiative aims to create a safe and sustainable online gambling environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The Philippines.- As the online gambling sector faces legislative scrutiny<\/a>, a group of 18 operators licensed by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp. (PAGCOR) have formed the PlaySafe Alliance of the Philippines<\/strong> as a unified industry force committed to \u201celevating standards in regulated online gambling.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the group, the alliance has four pillars: responsible gaming, regulatory integrity, player protection, and the fight against illegal gambling. It will soon establish strategic committees to focus on its core priorities. The founding members also announced plans to onboard an independent advisory panel of local and international experts to provide guidance on responsible gaming regulation, public health, financial technology and consumer advocacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DigiPlus Interactive Corporation <\/a>is a founding member of the alliance. \u201cThis alliance is not about competition\u2014it\u2019s about collaboration,\u201d DigiPlus chairman Eusebio Tanco<\/strong> said \u201cBy working as one, we can ensure that online gambling in the Philippines becomes more secure, transparent, and beneficial to both players and the nation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The initiative comes as The Senate is expected to start committee hearings<\/a> to explore calls to ban or more tightly regulate online gambling. Lawmakers remain divided<\/a> over the issue and the Philippine government has stressed that it will not rush into a decision<\/a> regarding a possible ban.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
