New Zealand is gearing up for a major overhaul of its gambling laws with a new bill to regulate online casino gaming. The Online Gambling Bill, introduced in Parliament, proposes a licensing system allowing up to 15 approved operators. The goal is to curb offshore gambling, protect consumers, and boost tax revenues. Strict measures include age verification, advertising restrictions, and fines reaching NZ$5 million for violations. If passed, the new framework is expected to take effect by April 2026, marking the country’s first move toward a regulated online casino market with player safety at its core.
