WinSpirit Casino Review

While researching this WinSpirit casino review, I felt that it is the perfect online casino for Kiwi players given my findings which I will detail in this review.

The casino opened in 2022 and is owned by Complete Technologies N.V. which has a valid certificate of operation with a gaming license application under process with the Curacao Gaming Control Board.

They currently have over 5300 online casino games which include esports, roulette, online video poker, jackpot pokies, blackjack and live dealer casino games.

PlayZilla Casino is available in 6 different languages but also has English versions localized to NZ, India and Canada.

The website has a user-friendly design with a dark blue background and green accents, providing easy navigation to the main sections of the website.

The site is optimized for both desktop and mobile users, allowing access across various devices.

I had mixed feelings because I initially felt that the site was a little bit cluttered, but once I started looking for what I wanted, I realized that it was actually helpful having so much information on the home page as everything was at my fingertips, so I didn’t have to do endless searching.

I also liked the fact that the casino support information was clearly shown on the home page, without me searching through various pages to find it. But I will go more into the support side of things further in this review.

WinSpirit Casino offers a wide array of game types to suit different players.

The extensive collection includes online pokies, available in demo mode for practice or real money play.

Below are a handful of the many games available:

Table Games: Table game players can enjoy various versions of roulette, including American Roulette and 3D Roulette, as well as multiple blackjack variants like 3D Blackjack and 21 Burn Blackjack.

Live Games: The live casino section features live blackjack, live roulette, live baccarat, live poker, and exciting game shows such as Sweet Bonanza Candyland and Crazy Time.

Pokies: Most of the games at WinSpirit Casino consist of online pokies which are in various categories such as Megaways, Drops and Wins, Jackpots, Recommended, Bonus Buy and more. Remember they are all available to play in demo mode first to give them a test run.

Alternatively, you can play for real money if you like what you see.

Crash Games: These are all the rage nowadays and need you to have staying power and courage to decide when to cash out before your mode of transport crashes and burns.

Bingo: Who doesn’t love a game of good old bingo? Well, WinSpirit has a great selection of bingo games with a twist. Take a look for yourself.

Scratch Cards: Or scratchies as we Kiwis like to call them. A firm favourite of New Zealand players, you will certainly enjoy the selection of scratchies at WinSpirit Casino.

WinSpirit Casino has some great promotions for new players from New Zealand.

WinSpirit Casino supports a variety of payment methods to accommodate New Zealand players.

Options include Visa/Mastercard, Neosurf, Mifinity, Flexepin, PayDo, Interac and cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin.

The minimum deposit is $20, with withdrawal limits of up to $5,000 per week for credit cards and up to $10,000 per week for e-wallets. Deposits are processed instantly, while withdrawals may take between 1 to 3 days, depending on the method you choose.

Here are some of the main payment methods on offer:

• Cryptocurrencies: WinSpirit offers quite a lot of cryptocurrencies which include BitcoinCash, Bitcoin, Doge, Tether, Litecoin, Ethereum, Ripple, Dai and many more. The ERC20 network is used to process withdrawals.
• Mifinity: This is a secure e-wallet that allows for quick deposits and withdrawals. Its user-friendly interface and compatibility with various currencies make it a popular choice for Kiwi players.
• Neosurf: This is a prepaid voucher system that offers anonymity and ease of use for casino deposits. You can buy vouchers without sharing your financial details with anyone.
• Interac: While primarily used in Canada, it is starting to become quite popular among New Zealand players because it enables fast and secure payments directly from bank accounts, simplifying the deposit and withdrawal process.

I found a decent selection of software providers while doing my WinSpirit Casino review. There were too many to go into detail on each one, but below I have chosen a handful to tell you more about them:

• Netent: These guys are very well-known for producing pokies like Spinata Grande, Gonzos Quest, Starburst, Narcos and others. NetEnt is also one of the older providers and is right up there with Games Global ( Microgaming) WinSpirit has 141 Netent games.
• Playson: Playson offers a wide range of themes and features, from classic fruit machines like Fruits & Jokers and Sevens & Fruits to modern video slots such as Solar Queen and Buffalo Power: Hold and Win. Their games offer bonus features like multipliers, free spins, and jackpot mechanics. WinSpirit Casino currently has 89 titles in its library.
• VoltEnt: Their portfolio includes popular titles like Electric Wilds, a thrilling slot with multipliers, and Neon Reels, which offers a retro aesthetic combined with modern bonus features. VoltEnt also experiments with interactive game mechanics, such as cascading reels and expanding wilds. There are 218 VoltEnt pokies at WinSpirit.
• 3 Oaks Gaming: 3 Oaks Gaming incorporates advanced features like free spins, jackpots, and multipliers. Some of their titles are Sun of Egypt 3 which has a hold and win feature and Sticky Piggy which is full of features. WinSpirit currently has 96 3 Oaks gaming pokies titles in its library.

When choosing an online casino, safety is one of the most important aspects in my opinion, because I need to know the money that I deposit will be safe.

But more importantly, I also need to know that my winnings will be safe too! Imagine winning a very large amount only to find that you don’t get it in the end due to a security breach.

Luckily player safety and trust are paramount at WinSpirit Casino. The platform uses SSL encryption to protect personal and financial information and sticks to a comprehensive Privacy Policy detailing data handling practices.

Another very important factor is the elephant in the room, namely problem gambling.

While most of us know when to stop, there are unfortunately the odd person who can get in a little over their head and may need support.

WinSpirit promotes responsible gambling, offering resources and support for players to maintain control over their gaming activities.

If you ever feel that you are losing control of your gambling, please go to their Responsible Gambling link at the footer of their website.

There is a wealth of helpful advice on this page, including a questionnaire which you can ask yourself to determine whether your gambling may be getting out of control.

The WinSpirit Casino app is one of the best casino apps I have seen. Using advanced PWA (Progressive Web App) technology, you can install the app directly from your browser on any device with no extra downloads needed.

With the app, you only need to log in once and can quickly access all the games,  bonuses, and promotions right from your phone, tablet, or computer screen.

Plus, when you install the app, you’ll get 20 free spins on a top pokie as a welcome gift! Just activate them in the Bonuses tab of your profile, and you’re ready to play. The spins have no deposit requirement, with a bet of 10c and a x40 wagering requirement.

Installing the app is quick and simple. On Android, open Chrome, go to the WinSpirit website and select “Install App” from the menu.

For iOS, use Safari, tap the Share icon, and choose “Add to Home Screen.” If you’re on Windows or macOS, use Chrome or Safari and follow the easy instructions to add the app to your device.

For an even faster setup, you can scan the QR code provided on the site. Once installed, you’ll enjoy lightning-fast loading times.

To become a player at WinSpirit Casino, follow the steps below:

• Click on the green Sign Up button which is located on the top right of all of the pages throughout the site.
• You will then need to complete your email address, create a password, and enter your country of residence and currency.
• You also need to confirm whether you want to receive promotional offers and tick to confirm you are over 18. Click the green Next Step button.

• Enter your first name and surname, mobile phone number and date of birth and then click the green Next Step button

• You will receive a confirmation email which will have a link in it. You need to click this link to confirm your account which will then be opened for you, and you can make a deposit and start playing.

WinSpirit offers 24/7 support which is handy when contacting them from New Zealand due to us being in different time zones to the rest of the world.

You can contact them in the following ways:

• Live Chat: At the bottom left of the website, there is a green link which says Live chat 24/7. If you click on this, it will open up the live chat. However, I found myself talking to a chatbot instead of a live person which I wasn’t crazy about. But to be fair, the chatbot was able to answer all my questions so a human wasn’t really needed.
• Email: You can also contact them via email at support@winspirit.com
• FAQs: There is a full page dedicated to frequently asked questions. Topics covered are things like forgotten passwords, verification, how to open an account and other common questions.

We did not find a phone number which seems to be the norm among New Zealand online casinos nowadays, but they do have a WhatsApp channel.

I feel comfortable recommending WinSpirit Casino to fellow Kiwi players, as I appreciated that they are transparent about the fact that they only have a certificate of operation and not a fully-fledged gaming license yet.

Many casinos would have kept quiet about that. Having said that, if I come back to update my review in a few months and see they still don’t have their license, then this would ring warning bells.

They have a decent selection of games and banking options, although I would have liked to have seen Neteller, Skrill and Paysafecard as options too.

Overall they offer everything I would look for in an online casino and the fact they also offer sports, esports and a live casino is a big plus as well, as they are pretty much a one-stop gambling shop!
