About us
There is a single subject here: which offshore casino brands accept New Zealand dollars, and in what order they deserve to be read. Each position comes with the reasoning that put it there. It is put together in Wellington by a group of four people who have spent longer than they intended reading terms and conditions. Tane Ohakune signs off what goes live.
The order on the front page comes out of a fixed procedure rather than a discussion. A reviewer registers, deposits through POLi, plays until the balance moves, and files a withdrawal request with the hour of arrival noted against it. The licence number in the operator footer is looked up on the register that issued it. The bonus terms are transcribed, wagering multiplier and expiry included, because those two figures decide whether an offer is worth anything.
Seven things are scored: the licence, whether Kiwi players are accepted without argument, the payment menu, NZD handling, how long a payout really takes, how the lobby behaves on a phone, and how honest the bonus terms are. Payout speed weighs heaviest, since that is what readers email about. A brand sitting eighth is told why in its own review, not left to guess.
Some of the operators listed pay us a commission when a reader signs up. It buys nothing beyond the link. Positions move when the measurements move, and a brand that starts taking three days to pay drops regardless of the contract. The whole list is re-measured each quarter, and sooner if a licence, a payment method or a headline offer changes.
