Land-based casinos

The casino segment of New Zealand is compact and concentrated in large and tourist centers: SkyCity Auckland (flagship), Christchurch Casino, SkyCity Hamilton, SkyCity Queenstown (incl.

Wharf Casino) и Grand Casino Dunedin.

The sites operate as multidisciplinary complexes with restaurants, bars, hotels and event spaces.

Playset - slots/EGMs, roulette, blackjack, baccarat, poker tables and VIP areas; calculations in NZD, the share of cashless is growing.

Access mode is hard: 20 + to enter the casino, KYC/eKYC, AML/CFT, host responsibility programs, self-exclusion and risk notifications are required; video surveillance and technical certification of equipment are in effect.

In addition to casinos, a network of Class 4 machines is located in pubs and clubs under separate limits and harm-minimization rules.

Tourism (Auckland, Queenstown) and the event calendar maintain a steady flow of guests, and competition between venues stimulates the renewal of the slot park, the development of gastronomy and MICE offers.
