A livestream can now be more than something to watch on a screen. With the launch of FollowBet x VMX Live, OnlyFun.PH is introducing an experience where users can watch featured personalities, join the conversation, and play games alongside the streamer while the broadcast is still happening.
The new feature is led by Vivamax stars Angeli Khang and Robb Guinto, who have been named official brand ambassadors. Both will host regular livestreams during scheduled time blocks, giving fans a chance to interact with them in real time. OnlyFun.PH also plans to welcome more VMX personalities to FollowBet in the coming weeks.
FollowBet brings live entertainment and gaming together in one platform. Users do not need to leave the livestream to take part in games, making the experience more immediate and interactive. The approach reflects the growing popularity of creator-led content and social livestreaming, where audiences are looking for ways to participate rather than simply view a broadcast.
The partnership is also an example of mainstream entertainment talent exploring new digital formats. Jay Montelibano, Vice President of Viva Communications, said the collaboration with OnlyFun.PH brings pop culture and digital entertainment together. Khang shared that she is excited to have an avenue to hang out, chat, and play with fans, while Guinto said the feature can help create a community around shared live experiences.
OnlyFun.PH said the experience is supported by safeguards intended to protect users and streamers. FollowBet operates under the license and regulation of the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR). Its livestreams are subject to content monitoring and broadcast guidelines, and the platform includes Know-Your-Customer identity verification, data protection, and responsible gaming controls. According to Suzy Polyanska, Vice President for Player Engagement at OnlyFun.PH, the age-gated environment is meant to offer an alternative to open public platforms, where age restrictions may be harder to enforce.
At the official launch, the platform also introduced “Streamer for a Day,” a booth that allowed users and aspiring creators to experience hosting a live gaming stream and interacting with an audience. The feature follows the October 8 announcement of OnlyFun.PH as part of FUNaloMAX’s growing digital portfolio.
