Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment
At Kairos Coaching, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming. It is important to understand that gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Casino games are games of chance, and the house always has a mathematical advantage. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose.
Age Verification
In the United Kingdom, you must be 18 years of age or older to participate in gambling activities. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time. It is illegal for anyone under 18 to gamble, and we do not permit underage gambling on our platform.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, problem gambling may be present:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to try to recover money lost
- Hiding gambling activities or lying about the amount of time or money spent gambling
- Neglecting family, work, education, or other responsibilities due to gambling
- Experiencing mood swings or irritability when unable to gamble
- Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same level of excitement
- Unsuccessful attempts to cut back or stop gambling
- Borrowing money to gamble or gambling with money needed for essentials
- Feeling anxious, depressed, or stressed when not gambling
- Using gambling as an escape from problems or negative emotions
- Friends or family expressing concern about your gambling habits
If you experience any of these warning signs, please seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools and Controls
We provide a range of tools to help you maintain control over your gambling:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to deposit within a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly).
- Loss Limits: Establish a cap on losses you are willing to accept within a set timeframe.
- Reality Checks: Enable regular reminders during your gaming session to help you stay aware of time and money spent.
- Session Time Limits: Set automatic reminders or session timeouts to encourage regular breaks.
- Self-Exclusion: If you feel you need to take a break from gambling, you can self-exclude from our platform for a period of your choice (ranging from days to years).
These tools are designed to help you play responsibly. Please use them proactively if you feel your gambling is becoming problematic.
