Safe Gaming

Kirikeya's Responsible Gaming Guidelines

Gaming is at its best when it's a source of joy. At kirikeya, we want you to always stay in control, have fun, and play safely. Responsible gaming isn't just a rule — it's a commitment we stand by.

Our Responsible Gaming Program

Kirikeya's responsible gaming framework is built on 6 core pillars, each designed to keep your gaming experience safe and enjoyable.

Setting Personal Limits

At kirikeya, you can set your own deposit, wagering, and loss limits. Choose daily, weekly, or monthly limits that work for you and stay within your budget.

Session Time Control

Set a time limit for each gaming session. kirikeya will send you automatic reminders when your set time is up, helping you maintain a healthy balance with real life.

Breaks & Cooling-Off

Feeling like you need a breather? Use kirikeya's cooling-off feature to take a break from gaming for anywhere between 24 hours and 30 days. You're completely in control.

Self-Exclusion Benefits

For a long-term break, use kirikeya's Self-Exclusion option. Once activated, your account will be suspended for a period of 6 months to 5 years.

Professional Support

Kirikeya's trained support team is available 7 days a week to assist with any responsible gaming concerns. Don't hesitate to reach out whenever you need help.

Real-Time Spending Tracker

Your kirikeya dashboard gives you a full picture of your gaming activity — time spent, bets placed, and more, all presented transparently.

Kirikeya believes gaming is entertainment, not a source of income. Playing responsibly means knowing your limits, enjoying the experience, and staying in control.

1 What Responsible Gaming Means

Responsible Gaming is a mindset where a player treats gaming purely as entertainment and maintains full control over their time, money, and emotions. At kirikeya, the definition is simple: only wager what you can afford to lose.

Millions of players enjoy gaming on our platform every day. Most of them play for fun and maintain a healthy balance in their lives. However, gaming habits can sometimes become problematic. kirikeya's responsible gaming program is here to help prevent and address those issues.

The core principles of responsible gaming are:

  • Play for Entertainment: Don't treat gaming as a source of income. Winning and losing are both part of the game.
  • Set a Budget: Only bet what you can afford to lose without it affecting your daily life.
  • Manage Your Time: Set dedicated time for gaming and make sure it never comes at the expense of family or work.
  • Don't Chase Losses: Chasing losses with bigger bets is a dangerous warning sign.
  • Take a Break: Take regular breaks and enjoy life outside of gaming.

All responsible gaming tools at kirikeya are completely free and available at any time. Using them is not a sign of weakness — it's a mark of a smart gamer.

2 Signs of Problematic Gaming

Gaming addiction develops gradually and can be difficult to recognize in its early stages. If you or someone you know shows any of the signs below, it may be time to seek help.

⚠️
Warning Signs

Spending more time or money than planned, chasing losses with bigger bets, hiding gaming activity from family, feeling restless when not playing.

🚨
Urgent Warning Signs

Gambling with borrowed money, neglecting work or family, being unable to enjoy life without gaming, lying to continue playing, or having thoughts of harming yourself or others.

More common signs of problematic gaming:

  • Trying to stop gaming but being unable to.
  • Lying or being secretive about gaming.
  • Disruption to sleep, eating, or social life.
  • Only feeling good when you're winning at gaming.
  • Experiencing financial hardship due to gaming.
  • Feeling angry, depressed, or restless when not gaming.

If you notice any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, contact kirikeya's support team without delay or use the Self-Exclusion feature. Seeking help takes courage.

If you answered "Yes" to two or more questions, we recommend using kirikeya's limit-setting or self-exclusion features.

4 How to Set Limits

Setting limits at kirikeya is simple. Go to Account Settings and navigate to the "Responsible Gaming" section, where you can set any of the following limits at any time:

Deposit Limit

Daily / Weekly / Monthly

Betting Limits

Maximum Amount Per Bet

Loss Limit

Maximum Loss Limit

Session Time Limit

Daily Maximum Gaming Time

Cooling-Off Period

24 hours to 30 days

Reality Check

Session Time Reminder

Increasing a limit takes some time (typically 24–72 hours), while decreasing one takes effect immediately. This is intentional — designed to make it harder to raise limits in an impulsive moment.

5 Self-Exclusion Process

Kirikeya's Self-Exclusion feature is designed for players who need a complete break from gaming for an extended period. Once activated, the account cannot be reactivated before the chosen period ends.

1
Go to Account Settings

Log in and go to the "Responsible Gaming" section from your profile menu.

2
Select Self-Exclusion

Click the "Self-Exclusion" option and select your preferred duration: 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, or 5 years.

3
Verify Identity

Verify your identity with your password and OTP for security.

4
Confirm Request

Self-Exclusion takes effect immediately upon final confirmation. A confirmation message will be sent to your email.

5
Get Support

While self-exclusion is active, kirikeya's support team can provide you with information about professional help resources.

Do not attempt to open a new account while self-exclusion is active. kirikeya verifies your details and will automatically block any such attempts.

6 Support for Family & Loved Ones

Gaming addiction affects not just the individual but the entire family. If someone close to you is displaying problematic gaming behavior, there are steps you can take.

  • Speak Directly: Talk calmly, without anger or blame. Messages like "I'm worried about you" tend to be far more effective.
  • Gather information: Learn about gaming addiction so you can offer the right kind of support.
  • Report at kirikeya: If you have concerns about a loved one's account, you can reach out to our support team.
  • Seek Professional Help: Don't hesitate to consult a mental health professional.
  • Take care of yourself: While supporting a loved one, don't forget to take care of your own mental health too.

Kirikeya's support team is also ready to assist family members. If you're concerned about a loved one's gaming habits, please reach out to us.

7 Protection of Minors

Kirikeya is strictly for individuals aged 18 and above. Keeping minors away from gaming is both a parental responsibility and a firm policy we enforce.

  • Age Verification: Age is verified at the time of registration. Additional documents may be requested in cases of doubt.
  • Parental Controls: Use parental control software on your device.
  • Keep Your Password Private: Keep your login credentials secure and out of reach of children.
  • Log Out: Always log out of your account after each session.
  • Have an open conversation: Talk to your children about the risks of online gaming.

If a minor registers on kirikeya, the account will be closed immediately and any deposited funds will be returned.
