The platform operates under a Cura\u00e7ao eGaming license, which permits international services but does not equate to authorization within the Philippines.<\/p>\n<p>In the Philippines, the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) is the official body responsible for regulating and licensing gambling operations.
