How we Rate

Every week, our expert editorial team and in-house reviewers—trusted by over 11,000 visitors—assess four online casinos through real-money testing. Acting as mystery shoppers, they explore the full player journey to deliver genuine, experience-based insights. Our ratings reflect these firsthand evaluations, combined with thorough research into each casino’s background, legal compliance, and reputation among New Zealand players.

Gambling Responsibility

Gambling is meant to be a source of entertainment, not a way to make money. Play responsibly—set limits, manage your budget, and avoid chasing losses. If you're in New Zealand and need help, free and confidential support is available 24/7 through Gambling Helpline NZ at 0800 654 655 or online at gamblinghelpline.co.nz.

20+

The online casinos featured on this site are intended for users aged 20 and over. In New Zealand, the legal gambling age is 20, as established by the Gambling Act 2003 and its amendments. Individuals caught gambling underage may face fines of up to NZ$500. If you're accessing this site from outside New Zealand, please ensure you comply with your local legal age requirements for gambling.

Name’s Ivor. Christchurch born and bred. I’ve spent over a decade in the high-stakes scene — first as a VIP relations manager for a major iGaming brand, now as the guy who reviews live casinos, dissects NZ gambling law, checks RNG fairness, and rips apart loyalty programs that treat whales like interns. I don’t hand out fluff; I tell you exactly how a platform treats you when you’re betting big and the chips are down.
