About our reviews

How do you review an online casino?

We capture the operator’s terms, bonus terms and cashier pages with the date of capture, extract the withdrawal ceiling and every stated processing window, and run both through the Exit Ledger — what a NZ$10,000 win costs in instalments and elapsed days. We price the welcome offer from its own stated wagering basis, resolve the licence number on the regulator’s own register, audit the RTP configuration of around forty headline titles, count the live floor at 9pm NZT and test support at four times of day, all from a New Zealand connection. Then we score against six published weights. Figures are re-checked monthly.

Do you only review casinos that pay you?

No. We review operators readers are searching for, whether or not we have a commercial relationship, and reviews without one carry no link and are marked as such. We would rather a reader find an accurate assessment here than an inaccurate one somewhere else.

Which casino review should I read first?

Spinjo if you want the best all-round option for a New Zealander. Kingdom if getting paid quickly is your priority. Smash if you actually intend to clear a welcome bonus. Roby Casino if you want to see what a negative review looks like on a site funded by affiliate commission.

How current are these reviews?

Each review carries a last-updated date derived from a content hash, so it moves only when the content actually changes rather than every time the site is rebuilt. Bonus terms and payout times are checked monthly; full re-tests are quarterly. Operators change terms without notice, so always read the current terms on the operator’s own site before depositing.

Why are some casinos ranked low but still listed?

Because readers search for them. A search for “Roby Casino review” that finds only pages failing to mention the missing licence disclosure is worse for that reader than finding ours. We rank low, flag clearly, and explain why — which is more useful than quietly omitting a brand.

Tama runs the desk and signs off every figure on this site that has a dollar sign in front of it. The question that organises the whole masthead — how long does a real win take to reach a New Zealand bank account — is the one Tama got tired of not being able to answer anywhere else, and the Exit Ledger is the answer we built.
