Hann Casino taps PhilWeb to scale regulated online gaming in the Philippines

Hann Casino Resort has entered into a strategic partnership with Philippines-listed eGames service provider PhilWeb Corp to strengthen and expand its regulated online gaming operations in the Philippines, as licensed operators increasingly seek established technology partners to scale their digital platforms amongst closer regulatory scrutiny.

In a statement filed with the Philippine Stock Exchange on Thursday, PhilWeb said it had ‘entered into a strategic partnership with Hann Casino for the operation and management of Hann Casino’s regulated online gaming platform in the Philippines.’ Under the arrangement, PhilWeb will provide operational and technical support, drawing on its experience and track record in the local gaming industry.

PhilWeb said the partnership is intended to support the platform’s compliance with applicable regulatory requirements while enhancing operational efficiency and system performance. The company added that its involvement is expected to ‘enhance platform performance, improve player experience and boost overall operational efficiency.’

Hann Casino will continue to oversee its regulated online gaming business and remain responsible for governance, regulatory compliance, and responsible gaming standards. 

According to PhilWeb, Hann Casino ‘remains responsible for ensuring adherence to responsible gaming standards, governance policies, and regulatory obligations,’ with PhilWeb’s role designed to complement these objectives through technical and operational capabilities.

The partnership follows Hann Casino’s acquisition in 2024 of a Philippine Inland Gaming Operators (PIGO) license from the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp (PAGCOR), enabling it to operate a regulated online gaming platform. As of March 2025, the platform hosted 103 random number games, alongside remote gaming options for live table games and online slot machines under its unified Hann Live Online offering.

Hann Casino described the tie-up as a long-term collaboration focused on sustainable growth as the regulated digital gaming segment gains traction among licensed operators.

Operated by Hann Philippines Inc., Hann Casino Resort is the first fully integrated resort in Central Luzon. Located on an 11-hectare site at the Clark Freeport Zone in Pampanga, the property features 274 table games and 1,721 gaming machines, as well as more than 800 hotel rooms under the Swissôtel Clark and Clark Marriott brands.

PhilWeb Corp is a gaming technology provider, listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange, which provides services to private clients as well as PAGCOR and the Philippines Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR).
