New Zealand edition, amounts in NZ$. The Gambling Act 2003, administered by the Department of Internal Affairs, gives an offshore online casino no route to a New Zealand licence, so WinSpin is not licensed here and no New Zealand regulator supervises it or hears player disputes.

Licensing & Compliance in New Zealand

Online casinos operate under a licence from a gambling regulator, and that licence determines which players can legally register and what consumer protections apply. WinSpin Casino states on its own homepage that it is licensed by the Anjouan Gaming Board — an offshore regulator in the Comoros, with lighter-touch oversight than the UK Gambling Commission or the Malta Gaming Authority. For New Zealanders, this matters because the Gambling Act 2003, enforced by the Department of Internal Affairs, gives an offshore online casino no route to a local licence — so WinSpin is not licensed here, and no New Zealand regulator supervises it or hears player disputes.

That is the operator's own claim, and we report it as one. The licence number and the legal pages that would allow anyone to check it against the regulator's register load only inside the site's JavaScript application, so no independent cross-check is possible from outside an account. Our full read on this sits in the WinSpin Casino review.

How we treat licensing information

Licence numbers and regulator names can change — an operator may add or drop a licence for a specific market over time. Rather than publish a specific licence number here that could go stale, we point to the operator's own registration page, where the current licence is displayed, and encourage you to confirm it before depositing.

What a licence means for you

  • Player funds should be handled per the regulator's rules on segregation from operating funds.
  • Games run through licensed software should be independently tested for fairness.
  • A dispute-resolution path exists through the regulator if the operator doesn't resolve an issue directly.

Checking a licence yourself

Most regulators publish a public register of licensed operators. If in doubt, search the regulator named on the operator's site against that regulator's own official register rather than taking any third-party claim (including ours) at face value. For a New Zealand player, the Department of Internal Affairs is the local authority to consult if you want to understand the legal landscape here.
