Online gaming platform Casino Plus said it processed more than ₱1 billion in validated jackpot payouts during the second quarter of 2026, underscoring its commitment to providing a secure and transparent payout process for players.
The company said approximately ₱263 million in jackpot payouts were distributed in June alone. All reported figures represent completed and validated withdrawals and exclude pending balances.
“At Casino Plus, player safety is at the heart of everything we do. We are committed to providing a fair, transparent, and secure digital gaming environment where players can enjoy responsible entertainment with confidence and experience the ease of withdrawing their winnings,” said Casino Plus CEO Evan Spytma.
Spytma was recently recognized with the Hall of Game distinction at SiGMA Asia.
As part of its responsible gaming initiatives, Casino Plus has integrated PAGCOR's 24/7 National Problem Gambling Helpline and self-exclusion resources into its Help Center. The platform said the program, developed in partnership with Seagulls Flock Organization Inc., is intended to make counseling and support services more accessible to players and their families.
Separately, Casino Plus has launched the 2026 Baccarat Grand Championship, a five-month tournament organized in partnership with Bingo Plus and LaVie Resort & Casino, offering a total prize pool of up to ₱41.3 million.
The competition officially opened on July 1, with monthly finals scheduled from July through October. The top three finishers from each leg will earn spots in the live Grand Finals on November 28 at LaVie Resort & Casino.
Licensed by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR), Casino Plus said the tournament is designed to reward consistent performance while building anticipation toward the championship event, which will bring together qualified players, VIP guests, brand ambassadors, and entertainment personalities.
“With the Baccarat Grand Championship, we are connecting the scale of online competition with the excitement and prestige of a live finals event. This is where the industry is headed,” Spytma said.
The tournament follows the company's Second Baccarat Tournament Grand Finals held in January at Newport World Resorts in Manila, which featured a ₱52-million prize pool, including a ₱30-million top prize, making it one of the country's largest live baccarat tournaments.
“As we continue to elevate regulated entertainment, responsible gaming remains at the center. Player protection is not just a compliance requirement for us. It is built into every stage of the player experience,” Spytma added.
