Account Questions

Creating a hi88 account is quick and easy. Click the hi88 Login link in the navigation menu and select the registration option. You'll need to provide a valid email address, a mobile number, and create a secure password. Once submitted, you'll receive a verification code via SMS or email. Enter the code to activate your account. The whole process takes less than 3 minutes — and you can be playing your favourite JILI slots right after.

In accordance with Philippine gaming regulations, you must be at least 21 years old to register and play at hi88. Age verification is required during the KYC (Know Your Customer) process. Any account found to belong to a person under 21 will be immediately suspended. We take underage gambling very seriously — if you suspect someone underage is using hi88, please contact [email protected].

KYC (Know Your Customer) verification is required before you can make your first withdrawal. To complete KYC, log in to your hi88 account, go to Account Settings > Verification, and upload a clear photo of a valid Philippine government-issued ID (such as a PhilSys ID, passport, driver's license, SSS ID, or UMID). You'll also need to submit a selfie holding your ID. Most KYC reviews are completed within 24 hours. Players in Manila, Cebu, Davao, Makati, and Quezon City can also use their local government IDs.

On the hi88 login page, click "Forgot Password?" and enter your registered email address or mobile number. You'll receive a password reset link or OTP within a few minutes. Follow the instructions to set a new password. If you don't receive the reset email, check your spam folder. If you're still having trouble, contact our support team at [email protected] — we're available 24/7.

No. hi88 strictly allows only one account per person. Creating multiple accounts (also called "multi-accounting") is a violation of our Terms & Conditions and may result in all associated accounts being permanently suspended and any winnings being voided. If you believe a duplicate account was created in error, contact [email protected] immediately to resolve the issue.

Deposit Questions

hi88 accepts a wide range of Philippine payment methods, including GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, Metrobank, and 7-Eleven over-the-counter payments. All transactions are processed in Philippine Peso (₱). We're constantly adding new payment options to make it easier for Filipino players across all regions to fund their accounts.

The minimum deposit at hi88 is ₱100 for most payment methods, including GCash and PayMaya. Bank transfer minimums (BPI, BDO, Metrobank) may vary slightly. There is no maximum deposit limit for verified accounts, though very large deposits may require additional verification for security purposes.

GCash and PayMaya deposits are instant — your hi88 balance is updated in real time. Bank transfers (BPI, BDO, Metrobank) typically take 15 to 60 minutes during banking hours. 7-Eleven OTC payments are usually credited within 30 minutes of payment confirmation. If your deposit hasn't appeared after the expected time, contact [email protected] with your transaction reference number.

hi88 does not charge any fees for deposits. However, your payment provider (e.g., GCash, your bank) may apply their own transaction fees. We recommend checking with your payment provider before making a deposit. hi88 credits the full amount received to your account — we never deduct a processing fee on our end.

Withdrawal Questions

To withdraw, log in to your hi88 account and go to Wallet > Withdraw. Select your preferred withdrawal method (GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, or Metrobank), enter the amount, and confirm. Make sure your account is KYC-verified before requesting a withdrawal — unverified accounts cannot process withdrawals. Withdrawals are processed to the same payment method used for your most recent deposit where possible.

GCash and PayMaya withdrawals are typically processed within 15 to 30 minutes after approval. Bank transfers (BPI, BDO, Metrobank) usually take 1 to 3 business days depending on your bank. Withdrawal requests submitted on weekends or Philippine public holidays may take slightly longer. hi88 aims to process all withdrawal requests within 24 hours of submission.

The minimum withdrawal amount at hi88 is ₱200. There is no maximum withdrawal limit for fully verified accounts, though large withdrawals may be processed in batches for security purposes. If you have a high-value withdrawal request, our VIP support team can assist you directly — contact [email protected].

Common reasons for a delayed withdrawal include: incomplete KYC verification, an active bonus with unmet wagering requirements, a mismatch between your account name and your payment account name, or a withdrawal request submitted during peak hours. If your withdrawal has been pending for more than 24 hours, please contact [email protected] with your withdrawal reference number and we'll resolve it promptly.

Bonus Questions

hi88 offers a generous welcome bonus for new Filipino players on their first deposit. The bonus amount and terms are displayed on the promotions page at the time of registration. To claim it, simply register, make your first qualifying deposit, and the bonus will be credited to your account automatically. Always read the bonus terms — particularly the wagering requirements — before claiming any offer.

Wagering requirements (also called "rollover" or "turnover") specify how many times you must wager your bonus amount before you can withdraw bonus-derived winnings. For example, a ₱500 bonus with a 20x wagering requirement means you need to place ₱10,000 in total bets before the bonus converts to withdrawable cash. Wagering requirements vary by promotion — always check the specific terms of each bonus offer at hi88.

Yes! hi88 regularly offers reload bonuses, cashback promotions, free spins on selected JILI slots, and special event bonuses tied to Philippine holidays and major sporting events like PBA, NBA, and boxing. Check the Rewards section of the site for the latest active promotions. VIP players also receive exclusive personalised offers from their dedicated account manager.

New games are added regularly. Whether you're in Manila, Cebu, or Davao, you'll always find something exciting to play at hi88.

Security Questions

Yes. hi88 uses SSL encryption across the entire platform to protect all data transmitted between your device and our servers. Your personal information and financial data are stored securely and never shared with unauthorised third parties. We also employ advanced fraud detection systems to protect your account from unauthorised access.

To enable 2FA, go to Account Settings > Security and toggle on Two-Factor Authentication. You can choose to receive your OTP via SMS to your registered Philippine mobile number. We strongly recommend enabling 2FA — it adds a critical extra layer of protection to your hi88 account, especially when logging in from a new device.

If you suspect your hi88 account has been accessed without your permission, change your password immediately and contact [email protected]. Our security team will review your account activity, freeze any suspicious transactions, and help you secure your account. Never share your password or OTP with anyone — hi88 staff will never ask for your password.

Responsible Gaming Questions

Log in to your hi88 account and go to Account Settings > Responsible Gaming. From there you can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits and loss limits. Limits take effect immediately when reduced. Increasing a limit requires a 24-hour cooling period to give you time to reconsider. We encourage all Filipino players to set limits before they start playing.

Self-exclusion is available in Account Settings > Responsible Gaming > Self-Exclusion. You can choose a period of 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, or permanent exclusion. Once activated, your account is immediately suspended and cannot be reopened during the exclusion period. Any remaining balance will be returned to your registered payment method. Self-exclusion cannot be reversed — this is intentional, to protect you.

hi88 supports responsible gaming in line with Philippine regulations. For additional support, PAGCOR (Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation) provides responsible gaming resources for Filipino players. The DOH National Mental Health Crisis Hotline is also available at 1553 (toll-free, 24/7) for players experiencing gambling-related distress. You can also visit our full Responsible Gaming page for more information and tools.
