1. Introduction and Scope of Agreement
These Terms and Conditions govern your use of BluffBet Casino, operated by BluffBet Ltd, registered and headquartered at Level 5, 2 Hunter Street, Wellington Central, Wellington 6011, New Zealand. By registering an account, accessing the platform, or placing any wager through bluffbet-casino-nz.com, you confirm that you have read, understood, and accepted these Terms in their entirety.
These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you (the player) and BluffBet Ltd. If you do not accept any part of these Terms, you must not use our services. BluffBet Casino reserves the right to update these Terms at any time. Continued use of the platform after any such update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
2. Eligibility and Account Registration
2.1 Age Requirement
You must be at least 20 years of age to register an account and participate in real-money gaming at BluffBet Casino. This age restriction is consistent with New Zealand’s Gambling Act 2003, which prohibits gambling services from being provided to persons under the legal gambling age. By creating an account, you confirm that you meet this requirement.
BluffBet Casino may request proof of age at any point during your registration or subsequent use of the platform. Failure to provide satisfactory documentation will result in the suspension or permanent closure of your account.
2.2 Residency and Jurisdiction
Our services are made available to players located in New Zealand. It is your sole responsibility to ensure that accessing and using online gambling services is legal in your jurisdiction. BluffBet Casino does not accept registrations from players in jurisdictions where such services are prohibited.
2.3 Account Creation
Each player is permitted to hold one account only. Duplicate accounts are strictly prohibited. When registering, you are required to provide accurate, complete, and up-to-date personal information, including:
- Full legal name
- Date of birth
- Residential address in New Zealand
- Valid email address
- Phone number
Providing false or misleading information during registration is a breach of these Terms and may result in the immediate termination of your account and forfeiture of any funds held within it.
2.4 Account Security
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account login credentials. BluffBet Casino will not be liable for any unauthorised access to your account resulting from your failure to keep your credentials secure. If you suspect that your account has been accessed without your authorisation, you must notify us immediately at support@bluffbet-casino-nz.com or by calling +64 4 474 7955.
3. Identity Verification (KYC)
BluffBet Casino operates under a strict Know Your Customer (KYC) policy in accordance with New Zealand’s Anti-Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism Act 2009 (AML/CFT Act). Before processing any withdrawal or at any stage deemed appropriate by our compliance team, we may require you to submit the following:
- A government-issued photo ID (e.g., New Zealand passport or driver licence)
- Proof of residential address (e.g., a utility bill or bank statement dated within the last three months)
- Proof of payment method ownership (e.g., a bank statement or screenshot of your e-wallet account)
- Additional documentation where required under AML/CFT obligations
We reserve the right to withhold withdrawals until verification is satisfactorily completed. Accounts that fail verification may be closed and relevant information reported to appropriate authorities as required by law.
4. Deposits, Withdrawals and Currencies
4.1 Currency
All transactions on BluffBet Casino are processed in New Zealand Dollars (NZD). This ensures full transparency and avoids any hidden currency conversion costs.
4.2 Deposits
Deposits can be made using the payment methods available in your account dashboard, which include Visa, Mastercard, and other accepted options. All deposits must come from payment methods registered in your own name. BluffBet Casino does not accept deposits from third parties under any circumstances.
Minimum and maximum deposit amounts apply and are displayed at the time of each transaction. BluffBet Casino does not charge deposit fees; however, your bank or payment provider may apply their own charges.
4.3 Withdrawals
Withdrawal requests are processed to the same payment method used for your most recent deposit, where technically feasible. Requests are reviewed within one to three business days, subject to completed identity verification. BluffBet Casino reserves the right to extend this period if additional verification is required.
Minimum withdrawal thresholds apply and are stated within the cashier section of your account. Winnings derived from bonus funds are subject to the wagering requirements outlined in Section 6 before being eligible for withdrawal.
4.4 Suspicious Transactions
Any transaction that BluffBet Casino reasonably believes to be connected with money laundering, fraud, or any other criminal activity will be reported to the New Zealand Police Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) and the relevant regulatory authorities. The account involved will be suspended pending investigation.
5. Gameplay and Betting Rules
5.1 Game Availability
