1 Introduction
These Terms and Conditions (the "Terms") govern your access to and use of the smjl online gaming platform, operated at smjl.asia (the "Platform"). By registering an account, accessing the Platform, or participating in any game or promotional activity offered by smjl, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms in their entirety.
smjl operates in the Philippines as a PAGCOR-registered online gaming platform. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between smjl and the registered user ("Player," "you," or "your") with respect to your use of the Platform and supersede all prior agreements, representations, or understandings relating to the same subject matter.
These Terms should be read in conjunction with smjl's Privacy Policy and Responsible Gaming Policy, both of which form part of the overall agreement between you and smjl.
Important Notice
If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not register an account with smjl or use the Platform in any capacity. Continued use of the Platform after any amendment to these Terms constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
2 Eligibility & Registration
2.1 Age Requirement
The smjl Platform is strictly available to individuals who are at least twenty-one (21) years of age at the time of registration, in accordance with the age restrictions prescribed by PAGCOR for casino-style online gaming operations in the Philippines. smjl reserves the right to request government-issued proof of age at any time. Any account registered by or on behalf of a person under 21 years of age will be immediately suspended and any balance in such account will be dealt with in accordance with applicable Philippine regulations.
2.2 Residency and Jurisdiction
By registering an account, you represent and warrant that: (a) you are located in the Philippines or in a jurisdiction where your participation in online gaming is not prohibited by applicable law; (b) you are not accessing the Platform for the purpose of facilitating participation by any person in a prohibited jurisdiction; and (c) your use of the Platform complies with all laws applicable to you in your jurisdiction.
2.3 Registration Requirements
To create an smjl account, you must provide accurate, current, and complete information including your full legal name (as it appears on a valid Philippine government-issued identification document), a valid email address, your Philippine mobile telephone number, and a secure password of your choosing. You agree to update your registration information promptly in the event of any change.
2.4 Identity Verification (KYC)
smjl is required by PAGCOR's Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations to verify the identity of all players before processing withdrawals and, in certain circumstances, before processing deposits above specified thresholds. You agree to provide, upon request by smjl, copies of government-issued identification, proof of address, and any other documentation reasonably required to satisfy smjl's KYC obligations. Failure to provide requested documentation within the timeframe specified by smjl may result in account suspension and delay of pending withdrawals.
2.5 One Account Per Person
Each individual is permitted to hold only one (1) registered smjl account. The creation or operation of multiple accounts, whether under the same or different names or contact details, is strictly prohibited. smjl reserves the right, without prior notice, to merge, suspend, or permanently close all accounts found to be associated with the same individual, and to void any transactions and forfeit any balances associated with duplicate accounts.
Age Restriction Enforcement
smjl enforces the 21+ age requirement through a combination of self-declaration and documentary verification. Any false declaration of age constitutes a material breach of these Terms. Winnings obtained by an underage player are void and will not be paid out under any circumstances.
3 Account Responsibilities
3.1 Account Security
You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your smjl account credentials, including your password and any one-time passwords (OTPs) issued to your registered mobile number. You must not share your login credentials with any third party. smjl will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from unauthorized access to your account that results from your failure to maintain credential confidentiality.
3.2 Accuracy of Information
You agree to maintain accurate and up-to-date registration information at all times. smjl may verify the accuracy of account information against third-party databases and government records. Material discrepancies between your registration information and verification data may result in account suspension pending investigation.
3.3 Account Activity
You acknowledge that all activity conducted through your smjl account — including all bets placed, deposits made, and withdrawals requested — is presumed to have been authorized by you. You accept full responsibility for all transactions made using your account credentials. You agree to notify smjl immediately at [email protected] if you suspect unauthorized access to your account.
3.4 Inactive Accounts
An account that has had no login activity for a continuous period of twelve (12) months will be classified as inactive. smjl reserves the right to impose an administrative maintenance fee on inactive accounts, in accordance with applicable PAGCOR regulations. smjl will make reasonable efforts to notify you via your registered email or mobile number before any such fee is applied.
4 Deposits
4.1 Minimum Deposit
The minimum deposit amount for smjl accounts is Philippine Peso twenty (₱20). smjl reserves the right to amend the minimum deposit amount at any time upon reasonable notice to players.
4.2 Accepted Payment Methods
smjl accepts deposits via the following Philippine payment methods: GCash, PayMaya, Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI), Banco de Oro (BDO), Metrobank, and UnionBank. Additional payment methods may be made available from time to time as notified on the Platform. All payment methods offered by smjl are subject to the terms and conditions of the respective payment service provider.
4.3 Personal Payment Methods Only
You may only deposit funds using payment accounts registered in your own name and matching the name on your smjl account. Deposits from third-party payment accounts, including accounts belonging to family members, are not permitted. smjl reserves the right to request documentary proof that the deposit payment method is registered in your name.
4.4 Deposit Processing
GCash and PayMaya deposits are processed instantly upon confirmation from the payment provider. Bank transfer deposits (BPI, BDO, Metrobank, UnionBank) may take between one (1) and three (3) business hours to appear in your smjl balance depending on the originating bank's processing schedule. smjl accepts no liability for delays caused by payment service providers or banking infrastructure.
4.5 Anti-Money Laundering
smjl complies with all applicable anti-money laundering (AML) regulations under Philippine law, including the Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA). smjl reserves the right to conduct enhanced due diligence on deposits that trigger reporting thresholds or that are assessed as potentially suspicious, and to report such transactions to the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) as required by law.
5 Withdrawals
5.1 Withdrawal Eligibility
Withdrawals from your smjl account are subject to completion of the Platform's identity verification (KYC) process. Unverified accounts may request withdrawals up to the applicable unverified withdrawal limit as specified in the Platform's verification guidelines, after which full KYC completion will be required before further withdrawals are processed.
5.2 Withdrawal Processing Times
smjl targets the following processing times for withdrawals: GCash and PayMaya withdrawals: five (5) to thirty (30) minutes from approval; Bank transfer withdrawals (BPI, BDO, Metrobank, UnionBank): one (1) to six (6) business hours from approval. These are target processing times and are not guaranteed. smjl will not be liable for processing delays attributable to payment service providers, banking infrastructure, or circumstances beyond smjl's reasonable control.
5.3 Withdrawal Method Consistency
smjl's default policy is to return withdrawals to the same payment method used for the corresponding deposit. Where this is not practicable, smjl's compliance team will assess appropriate withdrawal methods on a case-by-case basis, subject to AML compliance requirements.
5.4 Withdrawal Conditions for Bonus Funds
Funds credited to your account as bonus amounts, promotional credits, or free bet winnings are subject to applicable wagering requirements before withdrawal is permitted. Details of applicable wagering requirements are set out in the specific terms of each promotion and are binding on acceptance of any bonus or promotional credit.
GCash Withdrawals
smjl processes GCash withdrawals 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including Philippine public holidays. Subject to verification status and the absence of any pending review, most GCash withdrawals complete within 30 minutes of request submission.
6 Bonuses & Promotions
6.1 General Bonus Terms
smjl offers various bonuses and promotional incentives to registered players from time to time. All bonuses are subject to the specific terms and conditions of the applicable promotion, including but not limited to: minimum deposit requirements, wagering requirements, eligible games, time validity periods, maximum bonus amounts, and maximum withdrawal limits derived from bonus winnings.
6.2 Wagering Requirements
Unless otherwise specified in the terms of a particular promotion, the standard wagering requirement for smjl bonuses is twenty-five times (25×) the sum of the deposit and bonus amount before any withdrawal of bonus-derived winnings is permitted. Wagering contributions from different game categories are as follows: live casino games (baccarat, roulette, blackjack, color game) — 100%; slot games — 100%; sports betting — contribution rate as specified per promotion; virtual games — contribution rate as specified per promotion.
6.3 Bonus Abuse
smjl reserves the right to void bonuses and any winnings derived therefrom, and to suspend or permanently close accounts, where it determines in its reasonable judgment that a player has engaged in bonus abuse — including but not limited to: exploiting promotional terms through low-risk bet strategies designed to minimize variance while satisfying wagering requirements; registering multiple accounts to obtain the same promotional offer more than once; or any other activity that smjl determines to be contrary to the spirit of a promotion.
6.4 Promotional Availability
smjl reserves the right to modify, withdraw, or discontinue any promotional offer at any time without prior notice, subject to honoring all commitments made to players who have already accepted and partly or fully satisfied the conditions of an offer at the time of modification or withdrawal.
7 Gameplay & Fair Play
7.1 Game Integrity
All games offered on the smjl Platform use certified Random Number Generator (RNG) technology or, in the case of live dealer games, are conducted by trained human dealers using physical game equipment captured on live video. smjl's game infrastructure is subject to regular third-party audits to verify RNG integrity and correct game function. Published Return to Player (RTP) percentages are accurate and derive from the same certified game data.
7.2 Fair Play Rules
You agree not to use any software application, device, or method that: (a) automates gameplay decisions or bet placement; (b) exploits software errors or vulnerabilities in any Platform game; (c) manipulates communication between your device and smjl's servers; or (d) provides any unfair advantage relative to the game rules as published. Violation of this clause constitutes grounds for immediate account suspension and forfeiture of any balance.
7.3 Disputed Game Outcomes
If you believe a game outcome is incorrect, you must notify smjl's support team within forty-eight (48) hours of the relevant game round via the Platform's live chat or by email to [email protected]. smjl will review all relevant game logs and data to assess the dispute. smjl's determination, based on server-side game records, will be final and binding in all cases where the server-side record and the client-side display differ.
7.4 Betting Limits
smjl reserves the right to impose minimum and maximum bet limits on any game or game category at any time. Applicable limits are displayed within each game interface. smjl further reserves the right to apply individual account-level betting restrictions where it determines, in its reasonable judgment, that abnormal or potentially abusive betting patterns warrant such measures.
8 Responsible Gaming
smjl is committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. smjl provides a suite of responsible gaming tools accessible from account settings, including deposit limits, session time limits, loss limits, cooling-off periods (24 hours to 30 days), and permanent self-exclusion. These tools can be activated at any time by the account holder. Self-exclusion once activated for its designated period cannot be reversed prior to expiry.
smjl reserves the right to initiate responsible gaming interventions — including temporary account suspension — where it identifies betting patterns or account activity that may indicate problem gambling behavior, acting in accordance with its obligations as a PAGCOR-registered operator. Where a player has formally self-excluded from smjl, they will not be permitted to re-register for the duration of the exclusion period. Any attempt to circumvent a self-exclusion by registering a new account constitutes a breach of these Terms.
smjl strongly encourages players who believe they may have a gambling problem to make use of the self-exclusion facility and to seek assistance. For further information, please visit smjl's dedicated Responsible Gaming page.
