Licence on the regulator's register
A logo in the footer proves nothing. The licence number and company name must appear on the regulator's own register, with the same domain.
Copy the licence number from the casino's footer and search it on the regulator's public register. Some regulators publish no searchable register; then ask support for the certificate.

Welcome offer
What a welcome offer at Playzilla is worth
We have no current welcome offer on file for New Zealand. If the casino shows one, enter the bonus from your first deposit and the wagering from its bonus terms, and the worksheet does the rest.
Playzilla offer worksheet
WorksheetSet the bonus part you would claim. The default is a first-deposit example, not the casino's terms.
You must bet $4,000 before the bonus turns into cash. At 96.0% RTP that costs $160 on average, so the bonus is worth about -$60.

Our review
Playzilla review in full

For players in New Zealand
Playzilla accepts players from New Zealand, according to the casino. It does not hold a New Zealand licence. The Online Casino Gambling Act 2026 has been in force since 1 May 2026, and from 1 December 2026 offshore casinos that have not applied for a licence must stop offering online casino games to New Zealanders.
Check before every deposit that Playzilla still takes New Zealand players. If it closes New Zealand accounts, withdraw your balance straight away rather than leaving money on the site.
Licensed New Zealand sites will not be allowed to take credit card deposits. Offshore sites still do, but paying by debit card, POLi or a prepaid voucher keeps your spending to money you already have. More on the new rules in our report on New Zealand's licensing and tax plans.
Licence and safety
Playzilla holds a licence from Curaçao. It launched in 2018.
Curaçao overhauled its gaming law, and licences are now issued by the Curaçao Gaming Authority, which publishes a register. Find the licence number in the casino's footer and check that the register lists the same domain.
Expect to send ID and a proof of address before your first withdrawal. Upload them right after you register so the check does not hold up a win. Why new casinos ask for ID explains the process.
Games and studios
The pokies lobby includes Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Play'n GO, Microgaming and Nolimit City. Live dealer games come from Playtech. Beyond pokies, the categories listed include roulette, blackjack, baccarat, poker, game shows, crash games and Keno.
Check the RTP in each game's info panel. Many pokies run at several RTP settings, and a casino can pick a lower one. How to choose a new casino game covers what to look for.
Deposits and withdrawals
Deposits are listed for POLi, Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay, Paysafecard, Neosurf, Skrill and Neteller, plus crypto.
Withdrawals are listed for Mastercard, Visa Debit, bank transfer, Neteller, Bitcoin and USDT. Casinos usually pay back to the method you deposited with, so a prepaid voucher deposit needs a second method for payouts.
How to deposit
- Register and upload your ID and proof of address.
- Open the cashier and pick a method, such as POLi, Visa or Mastercard.
- Check the minimum deposit for the bonus and any fees before you confirm.
- Set a deposit limit in your account before you play.
How to withdraw
- Make sure your account is verified.
- Check that no active bonus still has wagering left; it can block or cancel the payout.
- Choose the method you deposited with where you can.
- Ask for a small first withdrawal and note how long it takes.
Bonus and wagering
Whether the welcome offer is worth taking depends on the terms, not the headline. Check these in the bonus terms before you opt in:
- the wagering multiple, and whether it applies to the bonus or to bonus plus deposit
- the maximum bet per spin while the bonus is active
- which games count towards wagering, and by how much
- the time limit to finish wagering
- any cap on winnings from the bonus or free spins
Questions
Playzilla: questions
Does Playzilla accept players from New Zealand?
Yes, according to the casino. It does not hold a New Zealand licence, so check before each deposit that it still takes New Zealand players as the new licensing rules come in.
Is Playzilla licensed?
It holds a licence from Curaçao, not a New Zealand one.
Can I play in New Zealand dollars at Playzilla?

How do I withdraw from Playzilla?
Withdrawals are listed for Mastercard, Visa Debit, bank transfer, Neteller, Bitcoin and USDT. Verify your account first and ask for a small amount the first time.
Can I deposit with POLi at Playzilla?
Yes, POLi is on its deposit list. It moves money straight from your New Zealand bank account.
Is Playzilla a new casino?
It launched in 2018. That gives it some history, though it is older than most casinos on our list.
What should I check before taking the bonus?
