Account & Registration

fchai is a digital-first online gaming platform designed specifically for Filipino players. It brings together a wide selection of casino games — including slots, bingo, live blackjack, and more — all in one place, accessible from your desktop or mobile browser without needing to download an app. You register an account, verify your identity, fund your wallet using GCash, Maya, or a Philippine bank transfer, and you're ready to play. fchai is built around the idea that online gaming should be fast, fair, and fun — the same way digital banking has transformed how Filipinos manage money.

Visit the fchai Login page and click the "Register" option. You'll be asked to provide your full name, email address, mobile number, date of birth, and a secure password. After submitting your details, you'll receive a verification email — click the link inside to activate your account. You'll then be prompted to complete KYC (Know Your Customer) verification by uploading a valid Philippine government-issued ID such as a PhilSys card, passport, driver's license, or SSS/GSIS ID. Once verified, your account is fully active and ready to use.

You must be at least 21 years old to register and play on fchai. This is a strict requirement under Philippine law and PAGCOR regulations. During registration, your date of birth is collected and verified against your government-issued ID. Any account found to belong to a player under 21 will be immediately suspended and any funds will be returned. There are no exceptions to this rule — it exists to protect young Filipinos from the potential harms of gambling.

Go to the fchai Login page and click the "Forgot Password?" link below the login form. Enter the email address associated with your fchai account and click "Send Reset Link." You'll receive an email within a few minutes with a secure link to create a new password. The link expires after 30 minutes for security reasons. If you don't see the email, check your spam or junk folder. If you're still having trouble, contact our support team at [email protected].

fchai requires a valid Philippine government-issued photo ID for KYC verification. Accepted documents include: PhilSys National ID, Philippine Passport, Driver's License (LTO), SSS/GSIS ID, PRC ID, Voter's ID, and Postal ID. You'll need to upload a clear photo of the front and back of your ID, plus a selfie holding the ID. Documents must be current and not expired. Verification is typically completed within 24 hours on business days.

Yes, you can update your contact details through Account Settings after logging in. For security purposes, changing your email or mobile number requires re-verification — you'll receive a confirmation code to both your old and new contact details. If you no longer have access to your old email or number, please contact our support team at [email protected] with your account details and a copy of your ID so we can assist you securely.

Deposits & Withdrawals

fchai supports the most popular Philippine payment methods: GCash, PayMaya / Maya, and bank transfer via BPI, BDO, Metrobank, UnionBank, Landbank, PNB, and Security Bank. Debit cards linked to these banks are also accepted. All transactions are processed in Philippine Peso (₱). Please note that credit card deposits for gambling are not permitted under current Philippine regulations, and fchai does not accept cryptocurrency of any kind.

The minimum deposit on fchai is ₱100 for GCash and Maya transactions. For bank transfers, the minimum is ₱500 due to processing fees charged by banks. There is no maximum deposit limit set by fchai, though your chosen payment provider may have their own daily transaction limits — for example, GCash has a standard wallet limit of ₱100,000 per day for verified accounts.

GCash and Maya deposits are processed instantly — your fchai wallet balance updates in real time as soon as the transaction is confirmed. Bank transfers typically take 1 to 3 business hours during banking hours (Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM). Transfers made on weekends or public holidays may take until the next business day. If your deposit has not reflected after 3 business hours, contact our support team with your transaction reference number.

Log in to your fchai account and go to the Wallet section. Select "Withdraw," choose your preferred method (GCash, Maya, or bank transfer), enter the amount, and confirm. Withdrawals are processed to the same payment method you used to deposit — this is a standard anti-fraud measure. GCash and Maya withdrawals are typically processed within 1 to 4 hours. Bank transfers may take 1 to 2 business days. Your account must be fully KYC-verified before any withdrawal can be processed.

Yes. The minimum withdrawal amount is ₱200 for GCash and Maya, and ₱500 for bank transfers. There is no processing fee charged by fchai for standard withdrawals. However, your bank may charge its own transfer fees for incoming transfers — please check with your bank for their current fee schedule.

Yes — and we strongly encourage it. fchai's responsible gaming tools let you set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from your Account Settings under the "Responsible Gaming" tab. Once your limit is reached, no further deposits are accepted until the period resets. Lowering your limit takes effect immediately; raising it requires a 7-day cooling period to prevent impulsive decisions. Visit our Responsible Gaming page to learn more about all available tools.

Games & Gameplay

fchai offers a diverse game library built for Filipino players. You'll find hundreds of slot games from leading providers, bingo rooms with multiple ticket options, Double Exposure Blackjack where both dealer cards are face-up, live dealer tables, and more. The full game catalog is available on the fchai Casino page. New games are added regularly, so there's always something fresh to try.

Double Exposure Blackjack is a popular blackjack variant where both of the dealer's cards are dealt face-up — giving you full information before you make your decision. This sounds like a huge advantage, but the game balances it out with adjusted rules: blackjack pays even money (instead of 3:2), the dealer wins all ties except a player blackjack, and some splitting and doubling options are restricted. It's a strategic, skill-based game that Filipino players who enjoy blackjack tend to love.

Yes. All games on fchai use certified Random Number Generator (RNG) technology to ensure that every outcome is completely random and unpredictable. Our game providers are independently audited by recognized testing laboratories. Live dealer games are streamed in real time from professional studios with physical cards and equipment, providing an additional layer of transparency. fchai operates within the PAGCOR regulatory framework, which includes standards for game fairness and integrity.

Absolutely. fchai is fully optimized for mobile browsers — no app download required. Simply open your preferred browser (Chrome, Safari, or Firefox) on your Android or iOS device and visit fchai. The platform automatically adjusts to your screen size for a smooth, responsive experience. Whether you're in Manila, Cebu, Davao, or anywhere in the Philippines with a mobile data connection, you can play your favorite games on the go.

Bonuses & Promotions

fchai offers a welcome bonus for new players on their first deposit. The specific bonus amount and terms may vary depending on current promotions — check the Promotions section after logging in for the latest offer. All bonuses come with wagering requirements that must be met before winnings can be withdrawn. Always read the bonus terms carefully before claiming any offer so you understand the conditions attached.

A wagering requirement (also called a rollover) is the number of times you must wager your bonus amount before you can withdraw any winnings derived from it. For example, if you receive a ₱500 bonus with a 20x wagering requirement, you need to place a total of ₱10,000 in bets before the bonus converts to withdrawable cash. Different games contribute differently to wagering — slots typically contribute 100%, while table games like blackjack may contribute less. Check the specific bonus terms for contribution rates.

Bonuses can be forfeited for several reasons: the bonus expired before the wagering requirement was met (most bonuses have a 7 to 30-day validity window), you made a withdrawal before clearing the wagering requirement, or your account was flagged for bonus abuse. fchai's bonus terms prohibit creating multiple accounts to claim bonuses more than once. If you believe your bonus was cancelled in error, contact our support team at [email protected] with your account details.

Security & Privacy

Yes. fchai uses industry-standard SSL/TLS encryption to protect all data transmitted between your device and our servers. Your personal and financial information is stored securely and never shared with unauthorized third parties. We also use two-factor authentication (2FA) as an optional but strongly recommended security layer for your account. For full details on how we handle your data, please read our Privacy Policy.

Go to Account Settings after logging in and select the "Security" tab. Toggle on "Two-Factor Authentication" and choose your preferred method — either SMS OTP to your registered mobile number or an authenticator app (such as Google Authenticator). Follow the on-screen setup steps. Once enabled, you'll need to enter a one-time code every time you log in from a new device or browser. We strongly recommend enabling 2FA to protect your account and your funds.

Act immediately. Change your password right away via the fchai Login page using the "Forgot Password" option. Then contact our support team at [email protected] and report the unauthorized access — include the date and time you noticed the suspicious activity. Our security team will review your account logs, temporarily freeze the account if necessary, and work with you to secure it. Never share your password or OTP codes with anyone, including people claiming to be fchai staff.

Responsible Gaming

Log in to your fchai account, go to Account Settings, and select the "Responsible Gaming" tab. Under "Self-Exclusion," choose your preferred exclusion period — options range from 6 months to 5 years, or permanent exclusion. Once confirmed, your account is locked immediately and you will not be able to register a new account during the exclusion period. fchai will also stop all marketing communications to you. Self-exclusion is a serious tool and we process all requests with full respect for your decision. Learn more on our Responsible Gaming page.

Gambling is addictive. Know when to stop. If you or someone you know is struggling with gambling, help is available. You can contact fchai's 24/7 support team at [email protected] to activate responsible gaming tools or request self-exclusion. PAGCOR also operates a responsible gaming helpline — contact details are available on the official PAGCOR website. The National Center for Mental Health (NCMH) in Mandaluyong City provides counseling for behavioral addictions. You can also visit our dedicated Responsible Gaming page for a full list of tools and resources.

Yes. fchai offers a cooling-off period feature that temporarily suspends your account for a period you choose — from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. During this time, you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. This is a great option if you feel you need a short break but aren't ready for a longer self-exclusion. You can activate it from the Responsible Gaming tab in your Account Settings. The cooling-off period cannot be cancelled once activated — it must run its full course.

Technical Support

First, check your internet connection — a stable connection of at least 5 Mbps is recommended for smooth gameplay, especially for live dealer games. Try refreshing the page or clearing your browser cache (Ctrl+Shift+Delete on most browsers). Make sure your browser is up to date; fchai works best on the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. If the issue persists, try a different browser or device. If a specific game is consistently unavailable, it may be undergoing maintenance — check back in a few hours or contact support.

fchai's platform saves your game state in real time. If you get disconnected mid-game, simply reconnect and reload the page — you'll be returned to the game exactly where you left off, with your bet intact. For live dealer games, if a round was completed while you were disconnected, the result will be recorded and your balance updated accordingly. If you believe a disconnection caused an incorrect outcome or a bet was lost unfairly, contact our support team with the game name, date, and approximate time.

fchai is compatible with all modern browsers including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Safari. It works on Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS devices. For the best experience, use the latest version of your browser and ensure your device has at least 2 GB of RAM. No plugins or software downloads are required — everything runs directly in your browser. If you're on an older device and experiencing performance issues, try closing other browser tabs and apps to free up memory.
