ArenaPlus – the flagship sports platform of DigiPlus Interactive Corp., the country’s pioneer and leader in digital entertainment – gathered its most loyal players last week for its first-ever appreciation events in Pasay City, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to creating a safe, rewarding, and player-first gaming experience.
The festivities kicked off with the Champions VIP Circle Night on Dec. 12 at the Chairman’s Lounge at Okada Manila in Entertainment City, where high-profile players are treated to a select night of premium hospitality and direct interaction with the ArenaPlus leadership team.
The next night, Dec. 13, the Champions Prime Circle Night at Solaire’s Baccarat Room next door brought together a community of ArenaPlus users whose practices and insights continue to shape the arena’s ongoing features and prize development.
“We are the largest sportsbook in the Philippines and we strive to dedicate ourselves to bringing you the best experience,” said ArenaPlus Head Erick Su. “I am proud that you have joined us and we will be committed to giving you more this (next) year.”
“We will have a new loyalty program next year, and we will give you an additional privilege – access to special events… all sports tickets,” Su continued.
These gatherings highlighted ArenaPlus’ latest enhancements, with enhancements designed to reward loyalty, deepen engagement and provide a personalized entertainment experience.
Along with the development, ArenaPlus also announced strengthened responsible gaming practices. New tools now include customizable deposit limits, playtime reminders, self-withdrawal features, and access to 24/7 customer support. These enhancements reflect the brand’s position that responsible gaming is part of its identity and its long-term relationship with players.
Asian Diamond Soul singer Siren Nina performed her hits and soulful covers in front of the Okada crowd, while pop star Joey G kept the energy high for Solaire guests with his powerful renditions of popular chart-toppers. Both nights featured amazing spreads, free-flowing drinks, and a fun atmosphere on the game floor that also saw two big raffle winners walk away with trips to the United States and Japan.
“All of this really shows that ArenaPlus really cares about its players,” said the VIP Circle winner from Manila, who will also have the opportunity to meet ArenaPlus ambassador and former NBA MVP Derrick Rose.
“I also have to think carefully about which shoe I’m going to sign D-Rose,” added the 35-year-old, who has been on the platform for two years, with a chuckle.
ArenaPlus Marketing Manager Hannah Bagui wrapped up two nights of appreciation on Saturday with additional prizes ranging from fashion vouchers to huge ArenaPlus gaming credits.
“Tonight is our way of saying thank you. You have set the standard for ArenaPlus – your expectations keep us sharp, and your integrity drives us to deliver faster, better, and with greater purpose,” Ms. Bagui told the guests.
As the genre enters 2026, ArenaPlus is preparing to release more initiatives that match the needs and preferences of a diverse user base, ensuring a secure, engaging, and most importantly, responsible gaming genre.
“We will expand in the coming new year when you will continue your engagement and stay with us. And in return, we will give you more and bring you more value. So, everyone, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!” said Mr. Su.
