Best Apple Pay casinos this July

As a team, we have decades of experience in the casino industry, and we use this, along with our 25-step review process, to rank and rate the best Apple Pay casinos. When specifically looking at Apple Pay casinos, there are a few factors that are more important. Below is an in-depth look at those factors.

• Deposit limits

  Apple Pay casinos need to cater for every bankroll to rank highly. The average minimum deposit at New Zealand casinos is $10, but some sites, like our top three Apple Pay casinos, accept $5 deposits. The lower the minimum deposit, the higher I rate a casino.

  🧠 Expert insight: "Even though a casino may accept a $5 deposit, the welcome offer may require a $10 or $20 deposit. Make sure you know the minimum deposit if you want to claim a bonus."

• Withdrawals

  Minimum, maximum and withdrawal speed are all taken into account in our casino rankings. Low minimums, high maximums and quick withdrawals are rated highly. On average, the minimum withdrawal is $20, while maximum withdrawals can reach $60,000.

  🧠 Expert insight: "If you value fast withdrawals, cryptocurrency is your best option. They often arrive back in your crypto wallet within hours while bank transfers can take up to a week."

• Bonuses

  The average offer in NZ is a 100% match up to $1,000, so look for anything higher than that, along with a wide range of existing customer offers. We also take into account wagering requirements and other terms like time and game choice. We rate flexible bonuses more highly.

  🧠 Expert insight: "When you take a welcome offer, always note the wagering requirements. The NZ average is 30x-40x, so anything higher than that and you may struggle to claim any real value."

• Safety, security and fairness

  All casinos we recommend hold reputable licenses from international regulators along with industry-leading SSL encryption. We also look for casinos that have third-party audits, such as eCOGRA, to ensure games are fair.

  🧠 Expert insight: "Licensing and player-safety technology should always be front-and-centre of an online casino. If it's hidden or hard to verify, we recommend you play elsewhere."

• Fees

  Deposits shouldn't come with fees. Fees are more likely to be applied to withdrawals. On the whole, the casinos we recommend do not charge withdrawal fees.

  🧠 Expert insight: "Always check the T&Cs before requesting your withdrawal to avoid any hidden fees."

• Games

  A casino is only as good as its game library, with the average size in NZ anywhere between 1,000 and 2,000. It's not just size we analyse with a strong selection of providers (100+) rated highly to give you true variety.

  🧠 Expert insight: "At most NZ casinos, you can try their games before even signing up or depositing with demo mode. Take advantage of this to ensure the casino is the right one for you."

• Overall rating

  A great casino is a great all-rounder. It shouldn't have low deposit and withdrawal limits, and it needs a strong game selection to deliver a truly excellent experience from start to finish. The casinos we recommend most excel in all areas.

  🧠 Expert insight: "You can go beyond our rankings and ratings to get a flavour of what users are thinking by browsing Reddit, Trustpilot or Apple App Store ratings."
