By using Online-pokies.nz you accept these terms. Please read them before you use the site. Their purpose is to make clear what the site is, and what it is not.
Last updated: October 2026.
About the site
Online-pokies.nz is an information site about online pokies and online casinos for readers in New Zealand. The site is represented by the website’s owner.
Our purpose is to provide fact-based information. We do not operate any gambling service, we do not act as an agent for gambling, and we do not accept deposits, stakes or bets.
How the site is funded
Online-pokies.nz is funded through affiliate links. Some links to gambling operators are commercial, and we may receive a commission if you register or make a deposit after following one. You pay nothing extra for using such a link.
Commercial arrangements do not determine what we write about an operator. Reviews and comparisons reflect our own editorial assessment at the time of writing.
Information only – not advice
The content on Online-pokies.nz is general information. It is not financial, legal or personal gambling advice, and it is not an invitation to gamble.
Reviews, ratings and rankings describe operators as we found them when the page was last updated. They are not a guarantee of how an operator will treat you. Any decision to gamble is always your own, made at your own risk.
The law and your own responsibility
The rules for online casino gambling in New Zealand are changing. The Online Casino Gambling Act 2026 sets up a licensing system administered by the Department of Internal Affairs.
It is your responsibility to check that an operator is allowed to offer its services to you before you sign up, and to follow the laws that apply where you live. A mention of an operator on this site is not a statement about its licence status in New Zealand at the moment you read the page.
Limitation of liability
We aim for all information to be accurate and up to date, and we check facts against reliable sources. Even so, details can become outdated or contain errors, for example when an operator changes its bonus terms, wagering requirements, payment methods or payout times.
We therefore give no guarantee that the content is complete, correct or current at all times. Always confirm bonus terms, fees, limits and licence details on the operator’s own website before you act on them.
To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for losses or damage that arise from relying on information on this site, or from your dealings with any gambling operator. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under New Zealand law that cannot be excluded.
Links to other websites
The site contains links to external websites, including gambling operators, public authorities and support organisations. We are not responsible for the content of those websites or for how they handle personal information.
Any account you open, and any deposit, bonus, withdrawal or dispute, is a matter between you and the operator concerned. We cannot step into disputes or recover money on your behalf.
Age limit and responsible gambling
Online-pokies.nz is intended for adults aged 18 and over. In New Zealand, the minimum age for online casino gambling is 18, and you must be 20 to enter a land-based casino.
Pokies are games of chance. They should be treated as entertainment and never as a way to earn money.
If you or someone close to you is having problems with gambling, help is available. The Gambling Helpline offers free, confidential support 24 hours a day on 0800 654 655, or by free text to 8006. You will find more services and practical tools on our responsible gambling page.
Intellectual property
The content on Online-pokies.nz, including text and graphics, belongs to the website’s owner unless stated otherwise. The names and logos of casinos, games and game studios belong to their respective owners and are used for identification only.
You are welcome to link to our pages, but the content may not be copied or republished without permission.
Privacy
How we handle personal information is described in our privacy policy, and our use of cookies in our cookie policy.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. The current version is always published on this page, with the date of the latest update. By continuing to use the site, you accept the terms that apply at the time.
If you have questions about the terms, you are welcome to get in touch through our contact page.
