Wagering requirements (also called “playthrough requirements”) define how many times a bonus amount must be bet before it can be withdrawn. Key rules:

- Game contributions: Slots โ 100% ยท Crash games โ 10% ยท Live dealer games โ 10% ยท Table games (RNG) โ 20% ยท Video poker โ 10%. Some games may be excluded entirely from wagering contribution.
- Real money first: During gameplay with an active bonus, all wagers are first deducted from your Real Money Balance. Bonus Balance is used only when Real Money Balance is exhausted.
- Forfeit option: You may forfeit your bonus at any time by contacting support. Forfeiting a bonus cancels any bonus-derived winnings that have not yet cleared wagering.
- Expiry: If wagering requirements are not completed within the applicable time limit, the bonus and any associated winnings are forfeited. Real Money Balance is unaffected by bonus expiry.
All casino games available at Wheelz Casino NZ operate in accordance with the following principles:
- RNG certification: All slot and table games use certified Random Number Generator (RNG) software, independently tested and audited by accredited third-party testing laboratories. Game outcomes are random and not influenced by the player’s history, bet size, or any other factor.
- Published RTPs: Return-to-Player percentages are published by the game developer and verified by regulators. RTPs represent long-term statistical returns across all players and are not a guarantee of individual session outcomes.
- Crash games: Crash games (including Aviator) use Provably Fair algorithms where applicable. The crash point for each round is determined by a cryptographic combination of server and client seeds established before the round begins.
- Live dealer games: Live dealer games are streamed in real time from licensed studios. Physical cards, wheels, and other game equipment are used and are subject to regular inspection and certification.
- Game malfunctions: In the event of a technical error, network failure, or software malfunction during a game round, the round is void and the stake is returned to the player’s account. Wheelz is not liable for losses resulting from service interruptions beyond our reasonable control.
- Disputed outcomes: In the event of a dispute about a game outcome, the result recorded in our server logs is definitive. Players may submit a formal complaint through our complaints procedure (Section 16).
- Game availability: Wheelz reserves the right to modify, remove, or temporarily suspend any game without notice for maintenance, regulatory, or commercial reasons.
