How We Review Casinos — Our 7-Point Methodology

Every casino review on this site goes through the same 7-point test before publication. We don't accept guest content from operators and we don't sort by affiliate payout. See our full editorial policy for the detailed methodology.

  1. Licensing & regulatory verification — clickable verification link to the licensing register (Curaçao GCB, MGA, UKGC, Anjouan).
  2. Real-money deposit + withdrawal test — we deposit our own NZD or crypto, play, and time the full withdrawal cycle.
  3. Bonus term verification — reading the full T&Cs and cross-referencing operator marketing claims.
  4. Game library audit — provider count, RTP transparency, crash games, live dealer, provably-fair availability.
  5. NZD-native banking — deposit NZ$200 and confirm an exact NZ$200.00 balance (no hidden FX). See our POLi alternatives guide.
  6. Responsible gambling tools — deposit limits, time-outs, self-exclusion, reality checks all findable within two clicks.
  7. Customer support test — live chat response time, knowledge, follow-up.

How to Use These Reviews

Each casino review on this site includes:

Had a Bad Experience with a Brand We Recommend?

Our reviews evolve based on real player experience. If a brand we cover has slipped — stalled withdrawal, KYC dragged out, T&Cs changed after deposit — we want to know. See our Complaints & Escalation page for the full 5-stage process: casino support → licensing regulator → AskGamblers/ThePOGG → NZ DIA → our editorial team.

We don't accept money for ranking changes. If a partner brand fails our methodology, they get dropped — affiliate revenue notwithstanding. See our Casinos We Won't Recommend list for the brands we've refused, with documented reasons.
