Gambling in New Zealand is illegal unless it is authorised by or under the Gambling Act 2003. In addition to this rule there are certain forms of gambling that are specifically prohibited under the Act:

Remote Interactive Gambling Prohibited

Advertising Overseas Gambling Prohibited

Prohibited Gambling Excerpts of the Gambling Act 2003

Prohibited Prizes

Section 9(2)(b) of the Gambling Act 2003 prohibits remote interactive gambling. The definition of remote interactive gambling includes "gambling by a person at a distance by interaction through a communication device."

Communication devices include such things as computers, telephones, radios and similar devices. To fall into the definition of gambling the participant must pay something to participate (directly or indirectly) and there must be an element of chance in order to win money or a prize. The prohibition would include selling lottery tickets on the Internet and would also include a New Zealand casino website.
New Zealand’s Gambling Act 2003 only prohibits online gambling from operators based in New Zealand. It is, therefore, not illegal for anyone to play in online sites that are based offshore. However, although it is not illegal to play in offshore casino operators or poker sites, it is considered an offense in New Zealand for these offshore sites to blatantly advertise and promote gaming in the country. Gambling Amendment No.2 in 2007 reinforced the 2003 law and brought additional accountability to owners and gambling operators to ensure that operators are part of a clean well-run sector.
