How we Rate

Each week, our experienced editorial team and in-house reviewers—trusted by more than 10,000 visitors—evaluate four online casinos by conducting real-money tests. As mystery shoppers, they go through the entire user experience, from sign-up to withdrawal, providing honest, player-focused insights. Our ratings are based on these hands-on reviews, supported by detailed research into each casino’s background, legal standing, and reputation within New Zealand’s online gambling community.

Gambling Responsibility

Gambling should be enjoyed for fun—not as a way to earn money. Please gamble responsibly: set limits, stay within your budget, and never chase your losses.
