These Terms apply to all users of the Platform without exception.
phlar reserves the right to update or modify these Terms at any time. The most current version will always be published at https://phlar.net/terms-conditions with a revised effective date. Continued use of the Platform after any amendment constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.

Eligibility
To register and use phlar, you must satisfy all of the following eligibility requirements at all times:
- You are at least 21 years of age. This is the minimum legal age for participation in casino-style gambling in the Philippines. phlar operates a strict 21+ policy with zero tolerance for underage gambling.
- You are accessing the Platform from a jurisdiction where online gambling is lawful. It is your sole responsibility to determine whether online gaming is permitted in your location.

- You have not previously had a phlar Account suspended or terminated for breach of these Terms.
- You are not a current employee, contractor, director, or close family member of any employee or contractor of phlar, any certified game provider supplying content to phlar, or any payment processing partner of phlar.
phlar reserves the right to request documentary evidence of eligibility at any time, including but not limited to a government-issued Philippine ID, passport, driver's licence, or utility bill for address verification. Failure to provide satisfactory documentation within a reasonable timeframe may result in Account suspension and withholding of withdrawals pending review.
Account Registration
Each individual is permitted to hold only one (1) phlar Account. The creation of duplicate or multiple accounts by the same person — whether using different names, email addresses, payment methods, or devices — is strictly prohibited and may result in the suspension of all associated accounts and forfeiture of all balances.
When registering your phlar Account, you agree to provide accurate, complete, and current information. You must promptly update your Account information if any of your details change. phlar is not liable for any losses resulting from your failure to maintain accurate account information.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your username and password. You agree not to share your login credentials with any third party. All actions taken under your Account are your sole responsibility, regardless of whether those actions were authorised by you. If you suspect that your Account has been accessed without your authorisation, you must contact phlar support at [email protected] immediately.
phlar reserves the right to refuse Account registration or to close an existing Account at its discretion, including without prior notice, where phlar determines that continued access is contrary to these Terms or applicable law.
Deposits & Payments
All deposits and transactions on phlar are denominated in Philippine Peso (PHP / ₱). phlar accepts deposits via the following payment channels: GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, and Metrobank bank transfer. Additional payment methods may be added or removed at phlar's discretion from time to time.
You may only deposit funds from a payment source that is registered in your own name. Deposits from third-party accounts, credit facilities, or borrowed funds are not permitted. phlar reserves the right to return deposits and suspend an Account where the source of funds cannot be verified.
- Minimum deposit amounts and maximum transaction limits are published in the phlar cashier section and are subject to change.
- Deposits are generally credited to your Account instantly. phlar is not responsible for delays attributable to GCash, PayMaya, or any Philippine banking partner.

Bank transfer withdrawals to BPI, BDO, or Metrobank may take one (1) to three (3) business days depending on the receiving institution.
phlar reserves the right to request additional verification documents before processing any withdrawal, particularly for first withdrawals or withdrawals above certain thresholds. Submission of false or misleading documentation is a serious breach of these Terms and may result in account closure and referral to Philippine law enforcement authorities.
Bonuses & Promotions
phlar offers a range of promotional bonuses to eligible members, including welcome bonuses, reload offers, cashback programmes, and Black Diamond VIP rewards. All promotions are subject to the specific terms attached to each offer, which will be published alongside the promotion. In the event of a conflict between a specific promotion's terms and these Terms, the specific promotion terms shall prevail.
General bonus conditions applicable across all phlar promotions include:
- Bonuses are available to eligible account holders only and may be restricted based on geographic location, payment method, or account status.
- Each promotion may be claimed once per Account, per household, per device, and per IP address unless explicitly stated otherwise.
- Wagering requirements must be completed within the time window specified in the promotion terms. Failure to complete wagering within the stated period will result in forfeiture of the bonus and any associated winnings.
- phlar reserves the right to withdraw any bonus offer from any player at any time if it has reasonable grounds to suspect abuse, exploitation, or fraudulent activity.
- Winnings derived from bonus funds that have not yet met wagering requirements cannot be withdrawn and will be voided if a withdrawal is attempted prematurely.
- Certain game types — including but not limited to specific live dealer tables and progressive jackpot slots — may be excluded from wagering requirement contributions. Refer to individual promotion terms for full game contribution rates.
Game Rules & Fairness
All games available on the phlar Platform are sourced from certified game providers whose Random Number Generator (RNG) systems are independently audited for fairness and randomness. phlar does not manipulate game outcomes. The house edge for each game is determined by the certified game provider's published Return to Player (RTP) percentage.
Each game on phlar is governed by its own individual game rules, which are accessible within the game interface. By launching and playing any game on phlar, you confirm that you have read and accepted the rules applicable to that game. In the event of a dispute regarding the outcome of a game round, the records maintained by phlar's certified server logs shall be the definitive source of truth.
phlar reserves the right to void bets or game results in the event of a verifiable technical malfunction, software error, or data corruption that materially affected the game outcome. In such circumstances, the affected wager amount will be returned to the player's Account balance.
Prohibited Conduct
The following conduct is strictly prohibited on the phlar Platform. Engaging in any prohibited conduct may result in immediate Account suspension, permanent closure, forfeiture of all balances, and where applicable, reporting to Philippine law enforcement or regulatory authorities:
