cowins requires identity verification (KYC) before you can make withdrawals. Accepted documents include a valid Philippine government-issued ID such as a PhilSys National ID, passport, driver's licence, SSS ID, GSIS ID, PRC ID, or Voter's ID. You will also need to submit a selfie holding your ID. Documents are reviewed within 24–48 hours. KYC is required to protect all cowins players and comply with Philippine anti-money laundering regulations.

No. cowins strictly allows only one account per player. Creating multiple accounts is a violation of the cowins Terms & Conditions and may result in the suspension of all associated accounts and forfeiture of any balances.

On the cowins login page, click Forgot Password and enter the email address or mobile number linked to your account. You will receive a reset link or OTP. Follow the instructions to set a new password. For security, cowins recommends using a strong, unique password that you do not use on other sites.

You can update most personal details — such as your contact number, email address, and address — from the Account Settings section after logging in to cowins. Some changes, such as your legal name or date of birth, may require additional verification documents. Contact cowins support via live chat if you need assistance with a name or date-of-birth correction.

cowins supports the most popular payment methods used by Filipino players: GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, and Metrobank. GCash and PayMaya are the fastest options for both deposits and withdrawals. Bank transfers via BPI, BDO, and Metrobank are also available for players who prefer traditional banking. cowins is continuously working to add more payment options for the convenience of Filipino players nationwide.

The minimum deposit at cowins varies by payment method. For GCash and PayMaya, the minimum deposit is ₱100. For bank transfers (BPI, BDO, Metrobank), the minimum is ₱500. All deposits are credited to your cowins account instantly or within a few minutes. There are no deposit fees charged by cowins, though your bank or e-wallet provider may apply their own transaction charges.

GCash and PayMaya withdrawals are typically processed within 1–3 hours after approval. Bank transfers to BPI, BDO, or Metrobank may take 1–3 business days depending on your bank's processing schedule. All withdrawal requests are subject to a security review.

cowins does not charge withdrawal fees on standard cashout requests. However, your bank or e-wallet provider (GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, Metrobank) may apply their own transfer fees. The minimum withdrawal amount is ₱200 for e-wallets and ₱500 for bank transfers. cowins recommends using GCash or PayMaya for the fastest and most cost-effective withdrawals.

Withdrawal requests may be pending for several reasons: your KYC verification may be incomplete, there may be an active bonus wagering requirement on your account, or the request may be undergoing a routine security review. Log in to your cowins account and check the Cashier section for the status of your withdrawal. If your request has been pending for more than 24 hours, contact cowins support via live chat for assistance.

Wagering requirements (also called playthrough requirements) specify how many times you must wager a bonus amount before it can be withdrawn as real cash.

Always read the bonus terms before opting in.

No — bonus funds must meet the wagering requirements before they can be withdrawn.
