Maya (PayMaya) Online Casinos in the Philippines: Which PAGCOR-Licensed Sites Publish Maya Support (2026)
Two of the five PAGCOR-licensed platforms we cover state Maya (formerly PayMaya) support on their own channels: ArenaPlus and OKBet. For Solaire Online, BingoPlus and GGPoker.ph we could not confirm Maya from a first-party page, so the table below says so instead of guessing. One thing applies to all five: since August 2025, when BSP ordered gambling links stripped from wallet apps, you cannot reach a casino from inside the Maya app — you go to the operator's own cashier and pay from there.
We rank by how strong the operator's own evidence is, not by how loudly an affiliate page claims "instant Maya". An unverified row here is not an accusation; it means the cashier sits behind a login or a geo-block and we would not stand behind a number we did not see.
One thing to square before you click through: our platform pages list Maya as a payment method on all five, because those listings carry what each operator publishes about its own cashier. This page is the narrower claim — what we could still see on a first-party page when we went back to check, which was two of the five. Where the two disagree, the cashier you reach after logging in is the version that counts.
The five platforms, and what we could actually verify
| Platform | Maya support | Minimum deposit | Other funding confirmed | Where it sits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ArenaPlus | Confirmed — operator's own PH App Store listing | Not published | — | Sportsbook first (PBA, NBA, PVL), casino attached |
| OKBet | Confirmed — okbet.com's own site description | Not published | — | The widest spread: JILI slots, perya colour game, sports, esports |
| Solaire Online | Indirect — Bloomberry's sister platform names Maya; Solaire Online's own cashier not verified | Not published | DragonPay (on the sister platform) | The premium resort brand, quieter and VIP-leaning |
| BingoPlus | Not verified — site blocks overseas visitors; same operator as ArenaPlus | Not published | Not verified | Live bingo and tongits, the most local product of the five |
| GGPoker.ph | Not verified — PH cashier is behind a login | Not published | Not verified | The only PAGCOR-licensed poker room |
Confirmed in this table means the operator's own page publishes Maya support; we did not log in and test any cashier. The two dashes in the funding column are deliberate: GCash's own Help Center says licensed gaming top-up and withdrawal services were removed from GCash effective 16 August 2025, so this site does not list any platform as a GCash option.
Where those two confirmations came from
- ArenaPlus. The ArenaPlus listing on the Philippine App Store, published by AB Leisure Exponent, Inc. — the DigiPlus subsidiary that runs the platform — says the app offers "fast deposits and withdrawals via … Maya", and repeats it as a bullet feature. The listing was updated in August 2026. (We trim both operator quotes to the Maya part; the note under the table explains why.)
- OKBet. The site description okbet.com serves on its own pages reads "Enjoy fast payments via … Maya". That is OKBet describing OKBet, which is the standard we want.
- Solaire, the honest version. Solaire Online's cashier is not publicly readable. What is readable is FUNaloMAX, the separate online platform Bloomberry Resorts launched in July 2026 and markets as "a product of Solaire": its App Store listing names "Maya and DragonPay" as its payment gateways. Same company, different product. Treat it as a strong hint about Bloomberry's payment stack, not as proof about Solaire Online.
No operator publishes a minimum Maya deposit on a page we can read, so every cell in that column says so. Affiliate pages quoting a tidy ₱100 are quoting each other. Check the figure in the cashier before you fund anything, and see our payment methods comparison for how the methods stack up on fees and speed.
How you actually pay with Maya now
Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas Memorandum M-2025-029, issued 14 August 2025, ordered BSP-supervised institutions to suspend in-app gaming access. Maya switched off the gambling links in its Games feature at 8pm on 16 August 2025; GCash did the same to GLife at the same hour, and the GCash Help Center still carries the notice. BSP said the suspension holds until it finalises its policy on online gambling payment services — more than a year later, it has not been lifted.
What that killed was the doorway, not the payment. Two different things:
- Gone: opening a casino from inside the Maya app, and pulling gaming-account funds back through it.
- Still there: logging in at the operator's own site or app, choosing Maya in the cashier, and approving the push payment in Maya.
So the flow is now: fund your Maya wallet first, then go to the casino directly. Our guide to cashing in to Maya without paying fees covers the first half — the free bank-linked lane and the 2026 Visa cashback promo — and the GCash deposit guide walks the same push-payment mechanic step by step if you have never done it. What else changed in 2026 is in casino deposit rules.
Maya's own site is worth reading before you size a deposit. It advertises raising your monthly wallet limit "from ₱50K to ₱100K" after an account upgrade, and it does not list gambling merchants anywhere — consistent with the post-memorandum world, where Maya is a rail and the casino is the storefront.
Which one fits you
ArenaPlus — start here if you bet on games, not reels
The Maya evidence is the cleanest of the five, and the product is honest about what it is: a sportsbook with PBA, NBA and PVL at the centre and a casino bolted on. If your weekend already revolves around a PBA fixture, the operator's own listing puts Maya in the app (check it in the cashier), and the betting basics guide gets you through your first slip. Not for you if you want a deep slot library — the casino section is the side dish here, not the main course.
OKBet — the widest menu, if breadth is what you want
OKBet publishes Maya support on its own site, and it spans more categories than anything else on this list: JILI and PG Soft slots, live perya colour game, sportsbook, esports. That breadth is the reason to pick it. It is also the reason to be careful — a platform that offers a rebate on every vertical makes it easy to drift from the one game you came for into four you did not plan on.
Solaire Online — a familiar resort brand, with an evidence gap
Solaire is one of the most widely recognised resort names in the Philippines, and the online product leans premium and quiet rather than promo-heavy. We simply could not verify its Maya cashier ourselves. If Maya is your only funding method, open an account and check the cashier before you plan around it; if you are comparing it against the rest, our five-platform comparison has the wider picture.
BingoPlus — the most Filipino product here, unverified on Maya
Live-streamed bingo and tongits, PBA and PVL sponsorship, and 10 million-plus players by the operator's own count. It is the platform that feels least like an imported casino skin. But its site blocks overseas visitors, so we could not read its cashier. It shares an operator with ArenaPlus, which makes Maya support likely — likely is not verified, and we are not going to print it as fact.
GGPoker.ph — for poker players only
The only PAGCOR-licensed poker room in the country, which makes it uncontested rather than merely good. Its Philippine cashier sits behind a login and its public domain redirects overseas visitors elsewhere, so Maya is unverified. Worth it if you actually want to play Hold'em — our GGPoker.ph starter kit covers the first session. Pointless if you wanted slots.
What About "PayMaya Games" Inside the Maya App?
There are no casino games inside the Maya app any more. Maya's Help Center, checked on 3 November 2026, says its Lucky Games feature "has been disabled since August 16, 2025", in line with the BSP directive to disable links to online gambling sites. Our GCash and Maya policy timeline puts that date next to the BSP memo and PAGCOR's later rules.
What the app calls games today is something else. Maya's Help Center describes a Stream and Play Marketplace, opened from the Services screen, whose currently available games are JeepneyRush and BlockBlast, casual puzzle titles that are free to access with optional paid extras. The app also sells gaming pins for video games, and Maya runs a Maya XP Gaming Cashback deal on eligible video game spend until 31 December 2026. None of that involves betting.
So if you searched for PayMaya casino games, the games sit with the operator, not the wallet: you open a PAGCOR-licensed platform's own website or app, confirm its exact domain on PAGCOR's register, and check its cashier for Maya before you plan a deposit. Players must be 21 or over.
What Maya is bad at
- The policy is provisional. BSP framed M-2025-029 as a suspension "until the BSP finalises the policy on online gambling payment services". A future circular could narrow casino payments further, and a method that works this month may not work next month.
- Published support is not a tested cashier. The two Confirmed rows rest on what ArenaPlus and OKBet publish about themselves. We did not log in and test either cashier, and we could not confirm from official pages that any licensed cashier is processing Maya today, so check the cashier before you plan a deposit. For GCash, the wallet's own Help Center says licensed gaming top-up and withdrawal services were removed effective 16 August 2025, so we do not list any platform as a GCash option. GCash versus Maya has the head-to-head.
- Wallet limits bite before casino limits do. A ₱50,000 monthly wallet ceiling on an un-upgraded Maya account is a real constraint that has nothing to do with the casino.
- Nothing here is a speed promise. We found no operator publishing Maya deposit or withdrawal times on a page we could read. Anyone quoting you "1-3 hours" for all five platforms is quoting a template. Real times are in our withdrawal times comparison, where they are attributed.
How this page was checked
The platform table and the platform-by-platform notes were verified on 1 September 2026 from operator-controlled sources — App Store listings published by the operators themselves, the operators' own site metadata, the GCash Help Center notice, Maya's own site, and the text of BSP Memorandum M-2025-029. The "PayMaya games" section was checked on 3 November 2026 against Maya's own Help Center and deals pages. Three of the five operator sites are unreachable from outside the Philippines, and we marked those rows unverified rather than filling them in from affiliate pages.
If you find a cashier that contradicts this table, it is our page that is wrong, and we would rather correct it than leave it standing. Payment support changes without announcement, so treat any table like this — ours included — as a starting point you confirm in the cashier.
Online gambling in the Philippines is for players 21 and over. Deposit only what you can afford to lose, and use the deposit-limit and self-exclusion tools your platform provides. If play has stopped being entertainment, call (02) 8248-9568, the National Problem Gambling Helpline, which PAGCOR publicises but which is not a PAGCOR number, and read our responsible gambling page.
