117ph started with a simple idea: Filipino players deserve a world-class online casino experience that actually understands them — their payment habits, their favorite games, their language, and their culture. Here's the story of how we built it.
117ph is a Philippine-focused online gaming platform operating under PAGCOR's regulatory framework — the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation, the same government body that oversees land-based casinos in Manila, Cebu, Davao, and across the archipelago. We are not a foreign operator that decided to enter the Philippine market as an afterthought. 117ph was conceived, designed, and built with Filipino players as the primary audience from day one.
Our platform brings together live dealer casino games, slots from Asia's top providers, bingo rooms, specialty titles like Lucky Dice and Charge Buffalo, and a sports-adjacent gaming experience that resonates with fans of PBA, NBA, UFC, and boxing. We built our payment infrastructure around GCash and PayMaya because that's how Filipinos actually move money — not because it was the easiest option for us, but because it was the right option for our players.
From a small team with a big vision, 117ph has grown into one of the most trusted online gaming destinations in the Philippines. We're proud of that growth, but we're more proud of the community we've built — hundreds of thousands of players from Luzon to Mindanao who trust 117ph with their entertainment and their money.
To provide Filipino players with a safe, fair, and genuinely entertaining online gaming experience — one that respects local culture, supports responsible play, and delivers world-class games through technology that works on any device, anywhere in the Philippines.
To be the most trusted and most loved online casino brand in the Philippines — a platform where every Filipino player, whether in Makati or Marawi, feels at home, feels safe, and feels like they're playing on a platform that was made for them.
Six reasons why Filipino players choose 117ph over every other online casino
117ph operates under PAGCOR's regulatory oversight — the Philippine government body that licenses and monitors all legal gambling in the country. Your funds, your data, and your gameplay are protected by Philippine law. No offshore grey-market operation here.
We built our entire payment infrastructure around the way Filipinos actually bank. GCash and PayMaya deposits are instant. Withdrawals land in your e-wallet in as little as 15 minutes. No credit cards, no crypto — just the payment methods you already use every day.
Our game library is curated with Filipino tastes in mind. Baccarat, Mahjong-themed slots, sabong-inspired titles, and games from Asian providers like PG Soft and Jili Games sit alongside international favorites from Pragmatic Play and Evolution Gaming.
Our customer support team includes Filipino-speaking agents available via live chat around the clock. Whether you're in Manila, Cebu, Davao, or anywhere in the archipelago, you can get help in your own language without waiting in a queue for an overseas call center.
Every 117ph session is protected by 256-bit SSL encryption — the same standard used by BPI, BDO, and Metrobank. Two-factor authentication, login activity alerts, and automatic session timeouts keep your account and your winnings safe at all times.
117ph takes responsible gaming seriously. Deposit limits, session time reminders, cooling-off periods, and self-exclusion tools are built directly into every account — free, accessible, and effective. We want our players to enjoy 117ph for years, not regret it tomorrow.
Everything we do at 117ph is guided by a set of core values that we don't compromise on — not for growth targets, not for short-term revenue, not for anything.
Every game on 117ph uses certified RNG technology independently audited for fairness. Live dealer games use physical cards and wheels monitored by multiple cameras. We publish RTP figures for all slot titles. If a game isn't fair, it doesn't go on our platform.
Our terms and conditions are written in plain English, not buried in legal jargon designed to confuse. Bonus wagering requirements are clearly stated before you claim. Withdrawal processing times are published and honored. No hidden fees, no surprise rules.
We believe that a casino that genuinely cares about its players is a casino that lasts. 117ph invests in responsible gaming tools, player education, and support resources because we know that sustainable entertainment is better for everyone — players and platform alike.
The Philippine gaming market moves fast and 117ph moves with it. We continuously add new games, improve our mobile experience, expand our payment options, and upgrade our security infrastructure. Standing still is not an option when our players deserve the best.
117ph is more than a casino — it's a community of Filipino players who share a love of gaming. We celebrate local culture, support Filipino events, and build features that reflect the way Filipinos actually play, socialize, and celebrate wins together.
From a small startup to one of the Philippines' most recognized online gaming brands — here's how 117ph got to where it is today.
A group of Filipino gaming enthusiasts and technology professionals came together with a shared frustration: the best online casinos weren't built for Filipino players. GCash wasn't supported. Filipino-speaking support didn't exist. The games didn't reflect local tastes. 117ph was born to fix all of that.
After months of development, compliance work, and testing, 117ph launched its first version with a focused game library, GCash integration, and a Filipino-speaking support team. The response from players in Manila and Cebu was immediate and enthusiastic.
117ph added its live dealer casino suite — baccarat, blackjack, roulette, dragon tiger, and sic bo — and rebuilt the entire platform for mobile-first performance. Players in Davao, Quezon City, and Makati could now enjoy a full casino experience on their phones without downloading an app.
117ph now serves over half a million registered players across the Philippines, with a game library exceeding 1,000 titles, PayMaya integration alongside GCash, and a responsible gaming program that sets the standard for the industry. The journey continues.
