Spin Casino New Zealand Review (2024)

Products Online casino
License Malta Gaming Authority, MGA/B2C/145/2007
Founded 2001

Yes, Spin Casino and Spin Palace Casino are the same establishments. When you’ve been around the betting block as long as Spin Palace Casino has been then the slightest of twitches it makes is likely to throw a few flutter seekers off their stride. For that reason, let’s lay to rest any misconceptions around the Bayton Ltd-registered online casino owner’s intentions of putting its 2001 creation of Spin Palace Casino through a facelift to launch Spin Casino in 2009. CityViews Group owns and operates Spin Casino, which comes under the umbrella of the Palace Group.

The upshot of it all is a refreshingly contemporary casino for a swag of high-twitch fibre generation of Aotearoa New Zealand gamblers. Spin Casino hangs its hat on the pillar of the Malta Gaming Authority registration and eCOGRA’s spin-dry cycle of fairness/randomness tests of its online casino’s games.

While Spin Casino beckons on its website, it’s not until Kiwi players enter the neon concrete jungle landing page that they’ll begin to savour the richness of what’s on offer. The online casino’s overall Return to Player (RTP), or payout percentage, is a handsome 96.5%.

Range of Games

Spin Casino will leave you spoilt for choices from a collection of more than 700 online casino games that include jackpots, pokies (slots), and table varieties. The most popular online pokies on the Spin City leaderboard are 9 Pots of Gold, Wheel of Wishes, Thunderstruck II, and Ivory Citadel. Just when you think you’ve exhausted the choice of traditional games in a genre, Spin Casino will surprise you by h topping up its library with new releases every other week. The Mega Millions, Thunderstruck II, and Mega Moolah are setting the pace among the progressive jackpot front runners at Spin Casino. The wagering requirement at Spin Casino is a demanding x50 but not as steep when compared with the x70 merchants.

Pokies

Spin Casino pokies (slots) catalogue offers 529 online games. New Zealand gamblers will be hard-pushed to find that sort of range among Spin Casino’s rival online platforms.

The frontrunners are Mega Moolah, Jungle Jim, Gonzo’s Quest, Cool Buck — 5 Reel, and Tarzan.

Some of the Kiwis’ other favourite online pokies include:

  • 9 Masks of Fire
  • Breakaway
  • Break Da Bank
  • Immortal Romance
  • Starburst
  • Thunderstruck II
  • Tomb Raider™
  • Wheel of Wishes
  • Wolf Gold

Table Games

When it comes to Spin Casino, you can’t argue with its service — the pledge of an around-the-clock, 365-day (one more in the leap year) of 112 table and card games for its New Zealand bettors. On the platform of snazzy designs comes Spin Casino’s assurance that it isn’t shy to raise the roof on betting limits so that Kiwi players can maximise their winning thrills. 

Blackjack

Spin Casino boldly declares on its online website that blackjack is the runner-up to pokies on its popularity stakes list of table games Kiwis love to play. So, you’re not savvy enough or familiar with online blackjack just yet? Don’t stress. Spin Casino will ease you into the game with sobering advice on what beginners can opt for in a game also known as Twenty-one. The advice is to pick the European variant — as opposed to the American one — because its “lower house edge” offers you better odds of winning some cash.

Here are some of the other favourite games:

  • Atlantic City Blackjack
  • Big Five Blackjack
  • Bonus Blackjack Gold Series
  • Classic Blackjack
  • Double Exposure Blackjack
  • European Blackjack Gold Series
  • Hi-Lo 13 European Blackjack
  • Spanish Blackjack Gold Series
  • Vegas Blackjack Gold Series
  • Vegas Downtown Blackjack

Roulette

Low stakes are finding some elbow grease, so Spin Casino offers table statistics to put the Kiwi players’ mind at ease. That means, with each hit you can customise your bet. That’s why Spin Casino is rated the best for low-stakes online roulette casino games in 2022, while its sister online casino, JackpotCity, occupies the top rungs of the high-stakes one with the likes of betway365, PlayAmo, and LeoVegas.

While playing second fiddle to JackpotCity in the welcome bonus stakes of roulette, Spin Casino matches the former in the random number generator (RNG) games (10), live-dealer ones (16), and mobile games (26). However, New Zealanders must tick a few boxes on what entry lever suits their game preferences and desired level of play.

Here are some of the virtual games Spin Casino offers:

  • Diamond Edition Roulette
  • European Roulette
  • French Roulette
  • Premier Roulette
  • Multi-Wheel Roulette

Live dealer

Spin Casino isn’t sparing its budget in offering high-definition streaming among its library of 82 live-dealer games, thanks to award-winning technology from Evolution Gaming. Combine custom-built equipment with professionally groomed croupiers/dealers and it’ll leave New Zealand players frothing around the mouth for a taste of realism that RNG games can’t offer with their virtual roulette.

The crisp sounds and larger-than-life images provide cutting-edge real-time live-dealer experiences. Recognising the popularity of the live blackjack games, Spin Casino makes them available at standard, VIP, and Party Tables.

Baccarat, roulette, and poker variations are also available with TV game show-inspired Live Dream Catcher, the cherry on the HD streaming cake. Spin Casino creates an avenue for live chats that will enable Kiwis to interact with other players. 

  • Baccarat
  • Blackjack
  • Casino Hold ’Em
  • Caribbean Stud
  • Dream Catcher
  • Football Studio
  • Ultimate Texas Hold’em
  • Dragon Tiger Live
  • Roulette
  • Shangri La Roulette
  • Lightning Roulette  

Payout Percentage

The overall average percentage payout of 96.5% (among the top five online casinos in New Zealand) at Spin Casino is a good indicator of its reputation but bear in mind that doesn’t mean their games will necessarily match that rate — it could be higher or lower.  No doubt, Kiwis wanting to play the RTP “real money” games will find it pays to factor in an optimum level of payout percentage, lowest betting wagers, variety of themes, and the number of machine reels as well as free spins.  

On the flip side, the Spin Casino games will have a “smaller house edge” — that is, the higher the payout percentage, the lower amount of wagering money that it’ll keep. That makes it a win-win situation for New Zealand bettors because they won’t have to fork out large sums of money in trying to become familiar with the games.

Gamblers need to comprehend that Spin Casino doesn’t place a threshold on how much they’ll pocket from wagering. That’s the job of the renowned game software developers. From the production floor, responsible online casino operators like Spin Casino subscribe to eCOGRA’s fair-play rules. Unlike JackpotCity, Spin Casino doesn’t reveal the RTP percentage of its individual games. Kiwis will have to register to enter its website to find out more specifics, although they can surf the internet to find similar games that other rival online casinos have disclosed. Needless to say, Spin Casino is not far behind JackpotCity’s impressive credentials in that department.

Software Providers

To be among the elite of the online gambling industry, you have to be up with the game of technology. Spin Casino knows that, so it isn’t cutting any corners in banking on the expertise of award-winning software manufacturers Microgaming and Evolution Gaming. That means New Zealand gamblers win even before they place a wager.

Microgaming, which is renowned for surprising online casino players with an exciting new game just about every week, is the brain box behind the popularity of 9 Masks of Fire, Thunderstruck II, and Wheel of Wishes on Spin Casino’s Pokies platform.

However, Spin Casino knows no boundaries when it comes to serving its customers. It doesn’t confine its pokies platform to Microgaming because the online casino knows New Zealand gamblers enjoy variety to break the monotony of traditional favourites. Enter the other dynamic software game creators who are striving to match the excellence of Microgaming, if not eclipse it. They include Australian entities Big Time Gaming and NextGen Gaming which should have knowledge of Kiwi and Aussie gambling tastes.

  • Big Time Gaming (Founded 2012; Australian newcomer)
  • Blueprint Gaming (Founded 2008; UK company and part of Germany’s Gauselmann Group)
  • NetEntertainment (Founded 1996; Sweden; Mega series makers)
  • NextGeneration Gaming (aka NYX Gaming; established in 1999 and based in Australia; working with SG Digital)
  • Red Tiger Gaming (Founded 2014; NetEnt’s baby; Malta HQ)
  • Yggdrasil Gaming (Founded 2013; Sweden)

When it comes to online table games at Spin Casino, Kiwis will be the first to raise their hand to acknowledge “real croupiers/dealers” tend to jump out of their desktop and mobile screens in “real-time” for that unforgettable experience. That sort of world-class exclusivity is the domain of Evolution Gaming.

But don’t take our or Spin Casino’s word for it. The Swedish genius, born in 2006, took a punt with live casino software and never looked back on the way to becoming the multi-billion-dollar conglomerate it is today. Its global reputation comes on the heels of numerous accolades, including engraving its name on the EGR Live Casino Supplier of the Year Award for 10 years on the trot. That isn’t lost on the Hawk-eyed Kiwi gamblers when opting for live-dealer engagement in Spin Casino’s field of financial dreams.

Here are some of the other awards that Evolution has clinched to lend credence to its unrivalled quality standards:

  • Casino Content Supplier of the Year
  • Casino Supplier of the Year
  • Game of the Year
  • Multi-channel Supplier of the Year
  • Service Provider of the Year
  • Software Rising Star of the Year

Loyalty Programme

Not only does Spin Casino offer a loyalty programme, but it also provides an avenue for Kiwi bettors to scramble up the rungs of its VIP club. Those who wager in the real currency will automatically be extended a warm membership to the loyalty programme. If you’re the indecisive type, you’ll be hard-pushed to resist the temptation of Spin Casino’s 500 free loyalty programme points to put you in the mood while helping you find a groove, the second you create a real money account.

How exclusive it is for New Zealanders to play on the Spin Casino platform is reflected in the online casino’s list of 21 countries whose players aren’t able to enter its domain, including Belgium, Denmark, France, Spain, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

Every player defaults to the bronze tier of Spin Casino’s loyalty programme where no points are required but they are granted invites to exclusive tournaments. On accruing 2,500 points, Kiwis enter the silver tier and, exponentially, become eligible for gold, platinum, diamond and prive´ tiers — on mustering 5,000 to 500,000 points.

Spin Casino’s loyalty programme is no different to the majority of its kind. Kiwis will earn points on every real money wager they place. Place $NZ10 and earn a point. A high engagement level equates to bumper points that will catapult players up the rungs of the VIP ladder. Consequently, the number and quality of perks that Kiwis can claim will rise dramatically.

A major incentive for New Zealand gamblers is the opportunity to trade points for cashback. Kiwis can claim $NZ10 for every 1,000 points they bank. The system encourages a game of patience — that is, the longer a player resists the urge to exchange points the more cashback (credits) he/she will bag. A word of caution, though, so Kiwis don’t trip here. Don’t wait too long because points have a use-by date of 90 days, from the last time one plays at Spin Casino.

The VIP club has a hint of exclusivity about it. It helps if Kiwis hold VIP memberships at other casinos because that tends to authenticate the gambler’s ability to maintain the sophistication required to knock on the Spin Casino club’s door. Failing that, it’s the longer route of mustering 150,000 loyalty points and depositing at least $NZ10,000 to have the VIP club consider your eligibility before extending an official invite.

Here’s what Kiwis stand to gain from Spin Casino’s VIP treatment:

  • Smart time dispatch of cash-outs

  • No-fuss elevation to a Platinum perch for a month

  • Select VIP promotions

  • VIP tournament perks

The high rollers can make the cut for travel-related perks by virtue of belonging to the top 66% of the membership.

Mobile Sites/Apps

Spin Casino prides itself in catering to the demands of the 21st Century breed of gamblers, including those in Aotearoa New Zealand. For those who have cultivated the grid for desktop devices, mobility becomes the key to that contemporary claim. Spin Mobile Casino app makes a compelling argument that with sound software. Rated among the top 10 mobile gambling casinos in New Zealand, Spin Casino proudly pins the badge of “Top Casino for Mobile Devices” on its label. 

Whether it's smartphones, electronic notebooks, or tablets, Spin Mobile Casino has the software prescription so New Zealanders don’t have to go sniffing elsewhere for on-the-go traction. The hero feature in all of this is that most online casino games are compatible with mobile derivatives. The software manufacturer has done its homework to ensure Kiwis will receive glitch-free, pinch-free graphic images on compact mobile screens, such as iOS, Android, and Windows gadgetry.

The Android and Apple faithful will brainstorm the merits of which device provides a better engagement, but Spin Mobile Casino isn’t about to wade into that debate anytime soon. As far as it’s concerned, Spin Casino’s app will hum the minute New Zealand gamblers download its software to play blackjack, live dealer games, pokies, progressive jackpots, and other online table teasers akin to roulette. Register, download the Spin Mobile Casino app from the website and tap away to lose yourself in the maze of Mega Moolah, Mermaid Millions, Avalon, and Tomb Raider™.

As always, safety and security are paramount, so Spin Casino is affiliated with international banks that subscribe to digitally encrypted technology to safeguard its customers’ private and financial information.

Step-by-step guide for downloading the Spin Mobile app

Like many rivals’ apps, the Spin Casino isn’t available on Google Play Store for Android devices. Therefore, save a shortcut link to the Spin Casino website via your mobile browser where a recycling video invites you to engage. It’s imperative you register and make a deposit before downloading the green Spin Casino APK button.

Android Steps

  1. Enter the Spin Casino mobile landing page through your device browser.
  2. Locate the “Casino App” drop-down arrow and click on the "Android app" thread.
  3. The four stark diagrams guide you like beacons to open and install the Spin Casino App. Go to settings to “enable unknown sources” before signing up or logging into your account.
  4. When dusted, Spin Casino promises you’ll never have to go on the prowl for “casino.com android” ever again. Amen! 

iOS Steps

The Spin Mobile Casino iOS app is the key that opens the iPhone chamber of delights for the Kiwi faithful. The flashing 18+ responsible gambling video introduces gamblers to Spin Mobile Casino’s answer to a stress-free App Store.

  1. Simply go on the Android landing page and tap on the black-and-white App Store icon to download on your iPhone.
  2. Tap “get” to begin the downloading process.
  3. Another tap to “Open” for the fun and games to begin.
  4. Use your details to log in or create a fresh account for the mobile gaming world to fit the palm of your hand.

Customer Support

“If you build it, they’ll come,” is a business mantra etched in stone. Well, that’s the sort of edict Spin Casino embraces when dealing with its New Zealand customers. The online casino operator’s infectious mentality seems to be: “If you treat the Kiwis right, they’ll remain loyal.”

To put its money where its mouth is, Spin Casino provides a customer support crew via live chat and email without fail every day of the year, including public holidays. The absence of phone contact shouldn’t be a deterrent to prompt answers to players’ queries in 16 different languages. The cordial support crew responds via live chat within minutes, while via email support@thepalacegroup.com can be up to 24 hours.

The only drawback seems to be that Kiwis will have to sign up as members to access this excellent service. Ideally, Spin Casino would have gifted this support before New Zealand gamblers become a member because they may encounter issues leading to a sign in.

Payment Methods

Deposits and withdrawals can feel like potholes on the journey to blissful gambling. Spin Casino does everything conceivably possible to ensure New Zealand players spend as minimal time as possible to carry out payment methods, so you can dive into your favourite games. In fact, it sets the tone in the online casino industry in New Zealand via Neteller and Skrill. The cashier at the online operator’s website provides convenience, flexibility, and protection when helping Kiwis perform transactions.

A minimum $NZ10 deposit is a must for each transaction. Debit card tends to be popular with New Zealand gamblers, but Spin Casino offers diverse payment methods, including PayPal. For those who wish to mix and match paying methods, Spin Casino won’t stand in their way. For instance, Kiwis using Neteller will find they are unable to claim welcome bonuses. Don’t sweat it. Just use your debit card for the maiden deposit, then switch to Neteller thereafter.

Withdrawing from Spin Casino is for the best part no different to depositing. Kiwi gamblers can claim their winnings within three days, although an e-Wallet will whittle down that withdrawal time to within 24 hours.   

Deposit methods 

  • Bank transfers
  • iDebit
  • Maestro
  • MasterCard
  • Neteller
  • PayPal
  • Paysafecard
  • Skrill
  • Trustly
  • Visa

Withdrawal methods

  • Bank transfers
  • MasterCard
  • Neteller
  • Skrill
  • Trustly
  • Visa

It’s important for New Zealand gamblers to note that it isn’t always about the fastest deposit and withdrawals. They must become familiar with the transparent terms and conditions that spell out the minimum deposit amounts, betting limits, and wagering requirements for the bonuses.
