Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Kaoisushi, we believe that online gaming should be fun, exciting, and entertaining. Gambling is a form of entertainment and should never be viewed as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and always set limits on your time and spending.
Age Verification
We are committed to protecting minors. Online gambling in Canada is restricted to individuals who are at least 18 years of age or older, or the legal gambling age in your province, whichever is higher. Some provinces have set the legal age at 19. By using our site, you confirm that you meet the legal age requirement in your jurisdiction.
If you are under the legal age, please do not use this website.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone. Review the following checklist. If you recognize any of these behaviors in yourself or someone you know, help is available.
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Gambling with money needed for essentials (rent, food, bills, medications)
- Hiding or lying about gambling activities and spending
- Experiencing mood swings or irritability when unable to gamble
- Neglecting family, work, school, or personal responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money or increasing debt to fund gambling
- Feeling a need to gamble with increasing amounts to get the same excitement
- Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
- Relationships suffering due to gambling habits
If any of these apply to you, please reach out for help immediately.
Self-Help Tools
Most online casinos, including those we recommend, offer built-in responsible gaming tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose during a session or time period
- Betting Limits: Restrict the maximum stake per bet
- Session Reminders: Receive alerts after a certain period of play to help you track time
- Reality Checks: Pop-up notifications displaying your current balance and playing time
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently ban yourself from accessing your gambling account
- Account Cooling-Off Period: Take a mandatory break from gambling for a set number of days or weeks
We encourage you to use these tools proactively. Speak with your casino's support team if you need assistance setting up any of these features.
