About GXGX
GXGX publishes independent guides about slots, scatter mechanics, bonuses and payments for players in the Philippines. We are a publisher and comparison site. We do not operate a casino, accept bets, or hold player funds — ever.

What we are trying to do
Most casino content aimed at Filipino players exists to trigger a deposit. It leads with jackpot screenshots and buries the wagering multiple four clicks down. We took the opposite position: explain the mechanic, price the cost in pesos, publish the number that makes the offer look worse, and let the reader decide. That approach converts less. It is also the only version of this site worth running.
How we review
Every operator or product we describe is assessed against five weighted criteria:
| Criterion | Weight | What we check |
|---|---|---|
| Licensing & safety | 30% | Named regulator and verifiable licence number; clear corporate entity; published complaints route |
| Payments | 25% | Real withdrawal timings from reader reports, fee transparency, PH channel support |
| Bonus fairness | 20% | Wagering basis, max-bet clause, win caps, exclusion lists, expiry |
| Player protection | 15% | Deposit and loss limits, cooling-off, self-exclusion, how visible the 21+ rule is |
| Games & experience | 10% | RTP transparency, mobile performance, data use |
Notice that games are weighted lowest. Whether an operator pays you matters more than how pretty the lobby is.
Our red-flag list
Any one of these and we will not recommend a site, whatever the commercial terms:
- No named regulator or an unverifiable licence number.
- Bonus terms that are not readable before registration.
- No deposit limit or self-exclusion tooling.
- Marketing that implies gambling is an income source.
- Any targeting of under-21s, or an absent age gate.
- A pattern of unresolved withdrawal complaints from readers.
How we make money — and what it does not buy
GXGX earns commission from partner links. That funds the research and it costs readers nothing extra. What it does not do is change a score, remove a criticism or buy a placement. Rankings follow the weighted criteria above; commercial relationships are disclosed on the affiliate disclosure page and marked wherever they appear. If you ever find a page where those two things appear to conflict, tell us and we will publish the correction.
AI assistance and human editing
We use AI tools for research synthesis, drafting and structuring. Every article is then reviewed, fact-checked, corrected and approved by Max Curban before publication. Figures, legal points and operator terms are verified by hand against primary sources — an AI draft that cannot be verified does not ship. Our full policy is on the disclaimer page.
Corrections policy
Errors get fixed at the top of the affected page, dated, and described. We do not silently edit. Report one at mcurban@gxgx.com or through the contact page.
21+ only. Nothing on GXGX is financial advice or encouragement to gamble. Gambling has a mathematical house edge and should be treated as entertainment spending. See Responsible Gaming for tools and support, and the warning-signs guide if any of it sounds familiar.
