The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) has announced it will extend the validity period of casino licenses issued to offshore gaming operators (OGOs) until the end of 2027. This regulatory adjustment is intended to provide greater stability within the Philippine offshore gaming industry as it adapts to evolving market dynamics. By prolonging license terms, PAGCOR seeks to support the sustained growth and maturation of the country’s online gaming sector. The move underscores the government's recognition of the economic significance of offshore gaming licenses amid regional competition and regulatory challenges. Industry stakeholders view this extension as a positive development that will encourage continued investment and operational certainty in the online gaming market in the Philippines.
