PAGCOR

The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) is a 100 percent government-owned and controlled corporation under the Office of the President of the Republic of the Philippines.

The Corporation was created during the Martial Law years by virtue of a Presidential Decree (PD1067-A) issued by then President Ferdinand Marcos in response to calls for the Philippine Government to put a stop to the growing proliferation of illegal casino operations in various parts of the country then. The law creating PAGCOR was later amended and consolidated under PD 1869 otherwise known as the PAGCOR Charter

In 2016, PAGCOR took bold steps to enforce stricter gaming regulatory policies in its aim to curtail the proliferation of illegal online gaming activities and to ensure that they are properly regulated. In order to safeguard the welfare of Filipinos, at the same time meet the agency’s revenue targets to help fund the government’s nation-building programs and soci-civic projects, PAGCOR took over the licensing of online gaming operations.
