PESOMAX Casino License Check: Reading PAGCOR's Own List
A casino license check means matching a site's exact domain against PAGCOR's published registered-brands list, then reading the administrator, main brand and sub-brand columns for that row.
Key facts and contents
- Step 1
- Copy the exact domain
- Step 2
- Open PAGCOR's current registered-brands list
- Step 3
- Search the PDF for the domain, not the brand
- Step 4
- Read the row across every column
- Step 5
- Note the "as of" date on the list
Casino license check, done properly, is a five-minute document search, not a guess based on a logo. It’s one of the four checks in the full guide to checking if an online casino is legit, pulled out here in detail. This page walks through the exact steps against PAGCOR’s own registered-brands list, using entry 3 of the 27 August 2026 list — Pesomaxfun — as the worked example throughout.
Casino license check: the five-step process
Run these five steps on any domain you’re unsure about.
- Copy the exact domain from the address bar.
- Open PAGCOR’s current registered-brands and domains PDF.
- Search the document for the domain string, not the brand name.
- Read the full row: administrator, brand, root word, sub-brands, domains.
- Note the list’s “as of” date before trusting the match.
Skipping step 3 in favour of a name search is the most common mistake — a copycat site can reuse a brand name freely, but it cannot put itself on PAGCOR’s own domain list.
Pagcor license: what each column of the list proves
A pagcor license, as PAGCOR publishes it, is not one line — it’s a row with several columns, and each one proves something different.
| Column | What it proves |
|---|---|
| Administrator | The accredited company PAGCOR licensed |
| Game offering | Which categories (e.g. electronic casino games, sports betting) are covered |
| Main brand | The primary brand name registered to that administrator |
| Root word | The shared naming root across that administrator’s brand family |
| Sub-brands | Additional brand names registered under the same administrator |
| Main domain / listed domains | The exact web addresses the registration covers |
A brand name alone proves nothing on its own — it is the domain column that ties a registration to a specific website.
Reading entry 3: Pesomaxfun as a worked example
PAGCOR’s registered-brands list, as of 27 August 2026, entry 3, reads like this:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Administrator | Bloomberry Resorts and Hotels, Inc. (Solaire Resorts and Casino) |
| Game offering | Electronic Casino Games, Sports Betting, Specialty Games, Traditional Bingo Games, Electronic Bingo Games |
| Main brand | FUNaloMAX |
| Root word | FUN |
| Sub-brands | Pesomaxfun, LoveFun, OnlyFun |
| Main domain | funalomax.com |
| Listed domains | pesomaxfun.com, www.funalomax.com, lovefun.com, onlyfun.ph |
Reading that row: Pesomaxfun is listed as a sub-brand of FUNaloMAX, entry 3, under Bloomberry Resorts and Hotels, Inc. The listing names pesomaxfun.com specifically — it does not cover pesomax.com or pesomax.io, which are different domains from the one registered on this list.
Pagcor licensed online casino: matching a brand to its sub-brand family
A pagcor licensed online casino often operates several sub-brands from one administrator, which is why the root-word column matters. Bloomberry’s FUNaloMAX family shares the root “FUN” across Pesomaxfun, LoveFun and OnlyFun — three separate consumer-facing names registered to the same administrator and covered by the same accreditation.
That structure means checking “is this brand licensed” sometimes means finding it as a sub-brand rather than a main brand. Search the sub-brands column as well as the main brand column before concluding a domain is missing.
Where to find the pagcor list and how current it is
The pagcor list lives on PAGCOR’s Electronic Gaming Licensing Department pages as a dated PDF, refreshed periodically rather than continuously. Three things to check when you open it:
- The publication date printed on the document — the 27 August 2026 date used throughout this page.
- Whether the domain you’re checking is on the main-brand list or nested under a sub-brand.
- Whether a newer version has since replaced the one you’re reading.
An old copy of the list, saved and reshared, can miss updates that PAGCOR has since published.
Common mismatches this check catches
The brand name matches, but the domain does not appear anywhere on the list.
Treat the domain as unregistered. A name match with no domain match usually means a copycat site borrowed the brand name.
The domain is close to a listed one but not identical (an extra word, a different extension).
Do not round up. PAGCOR’s listing covers the exact domain string printed in the document — a near-match domain is a different registration, or none at all.
You found the brand under a sub-brand you didn't expect.
That’s a normal outcome. Read the administrator and root-word columns to confirm the sub-brand genuinely sits under that accreditation before moving on.
Once the domain check is done, the full four-part legit test covers the other checks worth running — the terms, the age gate and the cashier — before you decide the site is trustworthy. The casino age limit Philippines page covers the eligibility side PAGCOR enforces alongside its brand list, and the game providers page explains how a studio’s own licensing sits apart from an operator’s PAGCOR accreditation.
FAQ
How do I run a casino license check myself?
Copy the exact domain from the address bar, open PAGCOR's current registered-brands and domains PDF, and search the document for that string. Match by domain, since brand names get copied but registered domains do not repeat across entries.
What does a pagcor license actually cover?
It covers the accredited administrator and the exact brands and domains PAGCOR lists against that administrator. It does not cover a similarly named domain that is missing from the list, even if the brand name matches.
Where is the pagcor list published?
On PAGCOR's Electronic Gaming Licensing Department pages, as a dated PDF of registered gaming system administrators, brands and domains. The date printed on the document — 27 August 2026 in this page's example — tells you how current the row is.
Is Pesomaxfun a pagcor licensed online casino?
PAGCOR's list, as of 27 August 2026, registers Pesomaxfun as a sub-brand of FUNaloMAX under Bloomberry Resorts and Hotels, Inc. (Solaire Resorts and Casino), at entry 3, on the domain pesomaxfun.com. That is what the list shows for that exact domain.
