ReelGazette score
out of 10 · Methodology
New Zealand: the operators on this page hold offshore licences (Curaçao or Anjouan), not a New Zealand licence. Check the DIA for the current status of New Zealand’s online casino licensing regime before you play.
Licence & legal status
Availability (New Zealand): not excluded by the operator’s terms. New Zealand is not on the Terms §4.1.3 list. Rainbet holds no New Zealand licence. Source
Anjouan (Union of Comoros) offshore gaming licence — ALSI-152406029-FI2, Internet gaming licence — validator status VALID; register status Active.
Verdict
For New Zealanders, Rainbet is an offshore crypto casino whose terms allow NZ players. It scores 8.2 on our public-data checklist: licence, terms, cashier and bonus rules are published and support is 24/7. Points are lost for a terms clause naming a different licensing body, no general minimum deposit and no deposit limits. It holds no New Zealand licence.
What we like
- Anjouan licence verifiable in the regulator's register (Active) and validator (VALID).
- New Zealand is not on the restricted list in Terms §4.1.3.
- Operator claims crypto withdrawals in 5–15 minutes.
What to watch
- Offshore: no licence from New Zealand's Department of Internal Affairs.
- Until KYC is fully approved, deposits are capped at EUR 500 and withdrawals are blocked (§20.1).
- Licensing-body name in §21.6 contradicts the rest of the terms.

Offshore, and what that means in New Zealand
Rainbet is operated by Rain Group Ltd under Anjouan licence ALSI-152406029-FI2. That licence lets it operate from the Comoros; it is not a New Zealand authorisation. Disputes would go to the operator and its offshore regulator, not to a New Zealand body.
Payout speed and limits
Rainbet says withdrawals are typically sent within 5–15 minutes after one-confirmation deposits. The rules that actually decide how fast you get money out are in the terms: a 1x wager lock on crypto deposits (§8.7), a $15 minimum withdrawal (§8.1), and the KYC rule that blocks withdrawals while an account is only “Temporarily Approved” (§20.1). Rainbet can request verification at any time.
Bonuses
Two welcome paths are described on the homepage, both with a $30 minimum deposit: a 40x-wagered three-deposit match, and a “no wager lock” path that releases bonus funds gradually as you play. Terms §9.2 caps withdrawable winnings from welcome promo codes at $50.
For fast-payout alternatives with sourced figures, see our fast withdrawal casinos page.
Not yet verified
- Terms §21.6 names "Gaming Services Provider N.V." as licensing body for complaints, while §1 and the validator name an Anjouan licence — inconsistent.
- No general minimum deposit published (the $30 figure applies only to the welcome offer).
- Fiat options ("Bank Transfers, Gift cards") are mentioned on the homepage without per-country detail.
