Responsible Gaming
Last updated:
1. Our Commitment
At KiwiLuck NZ, we are committed to providing a safe, enjoyable, and responsible entertainment experience. While our Platform is a free social casino that involves no real money gambling, we recognise that casino-themed content carries inherent responsibilities. We take these responsibilities seriously.
We are dedicated to promoting awareness about responsible gaming practices and ensuring our Platform remains a positive space for all users.
2. This Is Not Gambling
It is important to understand that KiwiLuck NZ is not a gambling platform:
- No real money is required to play any game.
- No real money, prizes, or rewards of any monetary value can be won.
- Virtual credits and in-game currencies have no real-world value.
- Game outcomes are random and are provided for entertainment purposes only.
- There is no way to cash out, exchange, or transfer any virtual winnings.
Despite being free, we still encourage all users to approach our games with a mindful and responsible attitude.
3. Age Restriction — 18+ Only
Our Platform is strictly restricted to users aged 18 and over. We enforce this through:
- An age verification gate that appears upon first visit to the Platform.
- Clear 18+ notices displayed throughout the website.
- Terms of Use that require users to confirm they are at least 18 years old.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor has accessed our Platform, please contact us immediately so we can take appropriate action.
4. Responsible Play Tips
Even in a free entertainment environment, we encourage healthy habits:
- Set time limits: Decide in advance how long you want to play and stick to it.
- Take regular breaks: Step away from the screen periodically to rest and refresh.
- Remember it's entertainment: Our games are designed for fun, not as a way to practise or prepare for real money gambling.
- Don't chase outcomes: Since there are no real stakes, there is nothing to "win back." Enjoy the experience for what it is.
- Stay balanced: Gaming should complement your life, not dominate it. If you find it taking up too much time, take a step back.
5. Recognising Problem Gambling
While our Platform does not involve real money, we believe in raising awareness. Signs that someone may have a gambling problem include:
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended.
- Feeling restless or irritable when trying to stop.
- Gambling to escape problems or relieve negative feelings.
- Lying about gambling activity to friends or family.
- Jeopardising relationships, jobs, or education because of gambling.
- Relying on others for money to cover gambling losses.
If you or someone you know shows these signs, please reach out to a professional support organisation.
