Odd thing I stumbled on at the pub last night
Saw a card like that too, tucked by the pokies at my local 😅 reckon it's a bit sneaky putting online casino promos right next to the machines where people are already spinning. Total noob here so might be missing something, but is Imperial Wins even properly licensed for NZ players? Would be keen to hear if anyone's actually signed up with them 🤔
Learning to clear wagering, go easy 🙏
The licensing question's the right one to ask, and honest answer: I can't tell you, because offshore online casinos aren't licensed here at all at the moment. That's the whole catch with a card sitting next to the pub pokies. The machines on the bar side run under the Gambling Act with proper rules and a returns rate someone actually audits. The card's pointing you to a site with none of that local oversight, and whoever printed it is banking on you not noticing the difference while you're a few drinks deep at the pokies.
So until someone here posts a screenshot of an actual withdrawal from Imperial Wins landing in their account, I'm treating it as marketing, nothing more. No payout, no proof, same as always. If they're fishing for punters in Masterton pubs, I'd love to know who's behind it, because legit operators don't usually need to sneak cards under the pokie machines to find customers.
Cashout screenshot or it didn't happen.
Meh, card next to the pokies feels a bit dodgy to me too 😅 wouldn't mind knowing if anyone's actually spun there tho 🎰
Spinning reels dawn to dusk.
Total noob question here 😅 but when Win24 says offshore casinos "aren't licensed here", does that mean if I deposited at Imperial Wins and something went wrong, there's basically no one local to complain to? Just trying to work out how much protection I'd actually have 🙏

Pretty much yeah, no local regulator means if the site stiffed you on a withdrawal there's no NZ office to yell at, you'd be chasing some offshore outfit with nowehere to complain 🙄 That said I've spun plenty of offshore spots without drama, my favourite slot pays and I'm on it every evening 💰🎰 Still, I'd wanna hear from someone who's actually cashed out at Imperial Wins before dropping NZ$ in there, ngl 🔥
The hit is close, I can feel it.
That card bit worries me a bit too, since the pub crowd might think it's somehow approved like the pokies are 😅 Queenstown asked the exact question I was too shy to ask, cheers for that explanation 🙏
Nah I spotted one at a pub on Fenton St and just thought it was dodge as 😅 haven't signed up. Does anyone know if those cards even track where you picked them up?
You lot stress too much 😅 I pocketed a card from the pub near me, signed up, and it paid me NZ$340 on the pokies-style games first night, mean as! nobody's chasing me down or tracking anything, my code got me free spins and that was that 🔀🤑 maybe you're all just bitter your locals are dead lately...

Haha AllIn got NZ$340, maybe I should've grabbed one 😅 still keen to hear if anyone's wagering through a bonus on there and actually cashing out?
New here, soaking it up.
