Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: January 2026

Welcome to cpl.org.nz, your independent guide to the best online casinos in New Zealand. Transparency and integrity are paramount to us. In accordance with standard advertising guidelines and consumer protection practices, this disclosure explains our commercial relationships and how they fund the operation of this website.

1. Affiliate Links and Commissions

cpl.org.nz operates as a commercial affiliate website. This means that some of the external links on our site are "affiliate links." If you click on one of these links and subsequently register an account or make a deposit at an online casino operator, we may receive financial compensation (a commission) from that operator at no extra cost to you.

2. Editorial Independence and Review Integrity

While we earn affiliate commissions, these partnerships do not dictate, influence, or bias our editorial content, casino ratings, or review criteria. Our rankings are determined solely by our independent assessment of each operator, including safety standards, licensing, payout speed, game selection, bonus terms, and overall suitability for Kiwi players. An operator cannot pay to achieve a positive review, alter our scores, or conceal genuine drawbacks.

3. How to Identify Affiliate Links

To ensure full transparency for our readers, you can identify affiliate links on cpl.org.nz through the following indicators:

• Call-to-action buttons such as "Play Now," "Visit Casino," "Claim Bonus," or "Sign Up."
• Hyperlinks directed to third-party casino operators within our comparison tables and dedicated review pages.
• Text links that redirect through tracking parameters designed to register referral activity.

4. Regulatory Compliance and New Zealand Standards

We are committed to fair trading, truth in advertising, and responsible communication. We align our marketing and disclosure practices with the relevant standards for New Zealand consumers, including the principles set out by the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) of New Zealand (specifically the Advertising Standards Code and Guidance on Commercial Communications) and the Fair Trading Act 1986. We only feature online casino operators that hold recognized international gambling licenses and accept players from New Zealand.

5. Reader Responsibility and Safer Gambling

All information provided on cpl.org.nz is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute financial or legal advice. It is your responsibility as the player to:

• Ensure you are of legal gambling age (18+ or 20+, depending on the activity and jurisdiction).
