Online casino

In New Zealand, the online sector is modeled on limited monopolies.

According to Gambling Act 2003, only: TAB NZ (sports betting/horse racing) and Lotto NZ (lotteries) can legally offer interactive products to residents.

Online casinos (slots/roulette/live games) are not licensed domestically; foreign sites cannot be advertised in NZ and are not subject to local supervision.

Age thresholds: 18 + for bets and lotteries, 20 + for casinos (offline).

KYC/eKYC, AML/CFT, advertising restrictions, responsible gaming tools (self-exclusion, limits, risk warnings) are required.

Payments - in NZD, transparent conditions and quick payments from authorized operators are valued.

The basic logic of regulation is to minimize harm and protect consumers while maintaining strict control over the online offer.
