2. Eligibility

2.1 To register and maintain an account with s5.com, you must satisfy all of the following eligibility requirements at all times:

• You must be at least 21 years of age at the time of registration and at all subsequent times you access the Platform. This age restriction is mandated by Philippine gaming regulations and is strictly enforced by s5.com through Know Your Customer (KYC) verification procedures.
• You must be physically located in a jurisdiction where online casino gaming is not prohibited by applicable law at the time you access the Platform.
• You must not be a current employee, contractor, director, or officer of s5.com, or an immediate family member of any such individual.
• You must be legally capable of entering into binding contracts under Philippine law.
• You must not have a pre-existing self-exclusion agreement with s5.com or any self-exclusion entry in the PAGCOR-maintained exclusion database that covers online casino gaming.

2.2 s5.com reserves the right to request documentary proof of eligibility at any time. Failure to provide satisfactory documentation within the time specified in s5.com's request may result in account suspension or closure, and any pending withdrawal may be held pending resolution.

3. Account Registration

3.1 Each Player may hold only one (1) registered account with s5.com. The creation of duplicate accounts — whether using the same identity details or different personal information — is strictly prohibited and will result in immediate permanent suspension of all accounts involved and forfeiture of any balances held therein.

3.2 You agree to provide complete, accurate, and truthful information at the time of registration and to update your account details promptly whenever any registered information changes. s5.com will not be liable for any consequences arising from your failure to maintain accurate account information.

3.3 You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your s5.com login credentials. You must not share your username or password with any third party. s5.com will not be held liable for any losses incurred as a result of unauthorised access to your account where such access was facilitated by your disclosure of login credentials.

3.4 s5.com may require you to complete a full KYC identity verification process before processing any withdrawal. Required documentation may include a government-issued Philippine identification document (e.g., PhilSys National ID, passport, driver's license), a recent proof of address, and verification of the payment method used for deposits.

4. Deposits and Withdrawals

4.1 All deposits and withdrawals on the s5.com platform are transacted in Philippine Peso (₱). Supported payment methods include GCash, Maya (formerly PayMaya), BPI, BDO, Metrobank, InstaPay, and PESONet, subject to availability and applicable minimum and maximum transaction limits published on the Platform.

4.2 Deposits are processed immediately upon confirmation from the relevant payment provider. s5.com does not charge processing fees on standard deposit transactions; however, your payment provider may apply their own fees independently.

4.3 Withdrawal requests are processed by s5.com within the timeframes published on the Platform's Banking page. GCash and Maya withdrawals are typically completed within ten (10) minutes of approval. Bank transfer withdrawals are processed within thirty (30) minutes during standard Philippine banking hours.

4.4 s5.com reserves the right to request additional verification documentation before processing any withdrawal, particularly for first-time withdrawals or requests that exceed published threshold amounts. Withdrawals will not be released to payment methods other than those previously used for deposits without completion of additional verification steps.

4.5 You may only withdraw funds to payment accounts registered in your own name. Withdrawals to third-party payment accounts are prohibited.

5. Bonuses and Promotions

5.1 All bonus offers made available on the s5.com platform are subject to specific wagering requirements, game restrictions, time limits, and maximum withdrawal limits that are published in the applicable promotion's individual terms. These bonus-specific terms supplement and, where in conflict, supersede the general provisions of this section.

5.2 Unless stated otherwise in a promotion's specific terms, bonus funds must be wagered a minimum of thirty (30) times before any portion of the resulting balance becomes eligible for withdrawal. Contributions toward wagering requirements vary by game type and are published in the Promotions section of the Platform.

5.3 s5.com reserves the right to withdraw, alter, or cancel any bonus or promotional offer at any time without prior notice. Any bonus funds not yet subject to a satisfied wagering requirement at the time of cancellation will be forfeited.

5.4 Players found to be misusing bonus offers — including but not limited to using multiple accounts to claim the same promotion, exploiting low-risk wagering strategies designed to circumvent wagering requirements, or providing inaccurate information to obtain a promotional benefit — will have their bonus balance and any winnings derived therefrom voided and may be subject to account closure.

6. Gameplay Rules

6.1 All games available on the s5.com platform are operated using certified Random Number Generator (RNG) technology or, in the case of live dealer games, physical equipment operated by trained dealers under continuous camera surveillance. All RNG games are independently tested by accredited third-party testing laboratories.

6.2 In the event of a technical malfunction, network failure, or system error that interrupts a game round in progress, s5.com's decision regarding the outcome of the affected round is final. s5.com will make reasonable efforts to reconstruct interrupted rounds from server-side logs; where reconstruction is not possible, the affected stake will be returned to the Player's account.

6.3 Players must not use any form of software, algorithm, robot, or other automated means to interact with the s5.com platform. The use of such tools constitutes a material breach of these Terms and will result in immediate account suspension and forfeiture of all balances.

7. Responsible Gaming

7.1 s5.com is committed to promoting responsible gaming across all aspects of its operations. The Platform provides the following responsible gaming tools accessible from within a Player's account dashboard at all times:

• Daily, weekly, and monthly deposit limits
• Session time reminders and session duration limits
• Reality check notifications
• Cooling-off periods (24 hours to 6 weeks)
• Voluntary self-exclusion (minimum 6 months)

7.2 Self-exclusion requests are processed within twenty-four (24) hours of submission. Once a self-exclusion is active, s5.com will use reasonable technical measures to prevent the excluded Player from accessing the Platform and will refrain from sending the Player marketing communications for the duration of the exclusion period.

7.3 21+ Access to the s5.com platform is strictly limited to individuals aged 21 years and above. This requirement exists in compliance with PAGCOR's minimum age standards for online gaming in the Philippines and is enforced through KYC verification at withdrawal stage.

8. Prohibited Conduct

8.1 The following conduct is strictly prohibited on the s5.com platform and may result in immediate account suspension, permanent closure, forfeiture of balances, and referral to law enforcement authorities where applicable:

• Provision of false or misleading information during registration or KYC verification
• Money laundering or any transaction that s5.com reasonably suspects may constitute money laundering under the Anti-Money Laundering Act of the Philippines (Republic Act No. 9160, as amended)
• Use of fraudulent payment methods, including stolen credit cards or unauthorised e-wallet accounts
• Collusion with other players in live table games
• Any attempt to manipulate game outcomes through technical or other means
