Each week, our expert editorial team and in-house reviewers—trusted by more than 12,000 visitors—evaluate four online casinos through real-money testing. As mystery shoppers, they experience everything from sign-up to cash-out, delivering honest, player-focused insights. Our ratings are grounded in these firsthand reviews and supported by in-depth research into each casino’s background, legal compliance, and reputation within New Zealand’s online gaming community.
Gambling should be fun—not a source of income. Play responsibly by setting limits, managing your budget, and never chasing losses. If you're in New Zealand and need help, free and confidential support is available 24/7 from Gambling Helpline NZ at 0800 654 655 or gamblinghelpline.co.nz.
The online casinos listed on this site are intended for players aged 20 and over. In New Zealand, the legal gambling age is 20, as specified in the Gambling Act 2003 and its amendments. Individuals caught gambling underage may face fines of up to NZ$500. If you're visiting from outside New Zealand, please adhere to the legal gambling age in your country.
