How we Rate

Every week, our skilled editorial team and in-house reviewers—trusted by over 13,000 visitors—put four online casinos to the test using real-money accounts. Acting as mystery shoppers, they assess the full player experience from registration to withdrawal, offering transparent, firsthand insights. These evaluations are backed by comprehensive research into each casino’s background, legal compliance, and standing within New Zealand’s gambling community.

Gambling Responsibility

Gambling is meant to be a form of entertainment—not a way to make money. Always play responsibly: set personal limits, stick to your budget, and avoid chasing losses. If you're in New Zealand and need assistance, free and confidential support is available 24/7 from Gambling Helpline NZ at 0800 654 655 or gamblinghelpline.co.nz.

Underage gambling may result in fines of up to NZ$500. If you are accessing this site from abroad, please ensure you comply with your local age restrictions for gambling.

I’m not your pastor, and I’m not here to save souls. But after years studying digital user behavior, working inside a gaming startup, and seeing NZ gambling law, RNG fairness, and bonus T&Cs twisted to hook players, I can’t sit quiet. I know how mobile casinos are built — I helped design some of the hooks. Now I tear them apart, call out the scams, and show players (especially the young ones) where the fun stops and the trap begins.
