Why Responsible Gaming Matters

Online gaming is fun — there's no doubt about that. But like any form of entertainment, healthy boundaries matter. The people who play on kariya are more than just users to us; they're like family. That's why their wellbeing and peace of mind always come first.

Responsible gaming doesn't mean less fun. It means playing on your own terms — with limits you set yourself — so gaming always stays enjoyable and the rest of your life stays unaffected.

Kariya offers a range of responsible gaming tools that you can activate directly from your own account. Learn more about each of them on this page.

kariya's responsible gaming policy is built in line with international gaming organization guidelines.

Kariya's Responsible Gaming Tools

Here are the tools kariya provides to help keep you protected:

Deposit Limit

Set a maximum deposit amount on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Once the limit is reached, no further deposits will be allowed.

Session Time Limit

Decide in advance how long you want to play. Once that time is up, the system will automatically alert you.

Benefits of Taking a Break

Take a self-imposed break from 24 hours up to 30 days. You will not be able to log in to your account during this period.

Self-Exclusion

Exclude yourself for an extended period or permanently. Once active, you will also stop receiving any promotional emails from kariya.

Loss Limit

Set a loss limit so you stop playing once you reach a certain amount. Keep your financial losses under control.

Reality Check

You will receive periodic reminders showing how long you have played and how much you have spent.

How to Set Your Limits

Setting limits on kariya is simple. Log in to your account and follow the steps below:

Click the profile icon in the top right corner.

3

Reducing a limit takes effect immediately. However, increasing a limit may require a waiting period of 24 hours to 7 days — this is intentional, and is there to protect you.

Healthy Gaming Limit Examples

Experts recommend spending only a portion of your entertainment budget on gaming. Here are some examples:

Daily time (2 hours recommended)Healthy
Weekly budget (5% of income)Healthy
Daily time (6+ hours)Concerning
Weekly budget (20%+ of income)Concerning

These are general guidelines only. Every person's situation is different.

Recognize the Signs of Addiction

Gaming addiction often develops gradually and can be hard to recognize on your own. Watch out for the following signs:

  • Continuously playing to recover lost money ("chasing losses")
  • Exceeding your set gaming budget
  • Taking time away from family, friends, or work to game
  • Playing secretly or hiding the amount from others
  • Feeling restless, irritable, or uncomfortable when not playing
  • Using money set aside for essential expenses or savings on gaming
  • Repeatedly trying to cut back on gaming but failing to do so
  • Seeing gaming as the only way to escape stress or emotional pain
If you recognize three or more of the above signs, seek professional help promptly. Gaming addiction is a mental health condition, and it is treatable.

Self-Assessment

Ask yourself the following questions. This is a simple self-assessment tool only — not a professional diagnosis.

Did you go over your gaming budget last month?

Never Sometimes Often Always

Do you feel restless or irritable when you're not gaming?

No, never Sometimes Yes, often

Have you ever hidden the amount of time or money you spend gaming from family or friends?

Never Once or twice Several times

Have you placed bigger bets to try to recover money you've lost?

Never Sometimes Often
If you answered "Often" or "Always" to more than one question, consider speaking with kariya support or setting limits on your account.

Self-Exclusion & Break Details

Kariya provides two key protection tools to help you take a temporary or permanent break from gaming.

Cooling-Off Period (Temporary Break)

Take a break for 24 hours, 72 hours, or 30 days. During this time, account access and all transactions will be suspended. Your account will be reactivated automatically once the break period ends.

Self-Exclusion

Exclude yourself for 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. Once self-exclusion is active, all marketing communications from kariya will also stop. Permanent exclusions cannot be reversed.

Third-Party Request

A family member or someone close to a player may submit a self-exclusion request on that person's behalf. In such cases, please contact kariya Support with supporting evidence.

FAQ

Limit reductions take effect immediately. Increasing a limit, however, may take anywhere from 24 hours up to 7 days. This delay is intentional — it helps prevent impulsive decisions to place larger bets.

Yes. Before self-exclusion is activated, you will have the opportunity to withdraw any verified balance in your account. Bonus balances are generally forfeited.

No. While a cooling-off period or self-exclusion is active, kariya will not send any bonus offers, promotions, or marketing emails. This is to ensure you are not tempted in any way.

Start with a calm conversation and offer your support — avoid forcing the issue or placing blame. You can submit a third-party self-exclusion request through kariya Support. It is also advisable to seek guidance from a mental health professional.

After a temporary break, your account is reactivated automatically once the set period ends. After a long-term self-exclusion (6 months or more), you will need to contact kariya support and complete an assessment before returning. Permanent exclusions cannot be reversed.

Yes. Age is verified at the time of registration on kariya, and KYC documents are requested in cases where there is doubt. If anyone under 18 is identified, their account is closed immediately. If devices are shared within a household, we recommend enabling parental controls on the browser.
