Online Pokies NZ
Always an innovator and one of the most imaginative online casino operators around, Mr Green has picked up numerous industry awards, most recently IGA Gaming Operator of the Year and EGR Nordic Operator of the Year in 2017. There is enormous online pokies variety on offer, with games by a large number of leading producers, and this is backed up by an excellent mobile casino, live casino and sports betting site as well, so you always get plenty of choice with Mr Green when it comes to online gaming experiences.
WELCOME BONUS
When you sign up for a new real money pokies account at Mr Green, you can choose one of two different Welcome Bonus offers.
If you go for the online casino signup bonus, your first deposit receives a 100% match (up to the value of $100), and you also get 200 free spins on the ever-popular NetEnt pokie Starburst. You receive the first 100 free spins when you set up your account, and this is followed by twenty more each day for the next five days.
On the other hand, if you opt for the live casino signup bonus, when you make a deposit of $20 or more and then wager all of this amount on Mr Green live casino games, you get 50% cashback (up to $50) if you don’t come out ahead. As part of this signup offer, you also get 20 free spins per day for five days on Starburst.
With the Mr Green online casino Welcome Bonus, there is a 35x wagering requirement, which is currently lower than at many of our recommended casinos. However, only online pokies help you to meet the playthough, where the contribution to clearing the bonus is 100% — other games don’t help you to meet the wagering requirement at all. There is no wagering requirement with the Mr Green live casino signup bonus.
Overall, this is a straightforward and easy to understand introductory offer that gives new pokies players good value. With a low playthrough of 35x and pokies casino contributing to the wagering requirement 1:1, it’s a deal where most players should be able to take advantage and clear the full bonus amount.
PROMOTIONS
The promotions at Mr Green are one of the many things they’re noted for, and with a programme that changes quite often, it’s a good idea to stay in touch and check the Promotions page regularly to get the latest offers.
For instance, Mr Green has just released a new, exclusive 6 reel, 6 row Cluster Pays slots game called Emojiplanet, and to celebrate there are some great promotions. You can win free spins, cash prizes and a trip to Japan as part of the release, and there is also an Emojiplanet tournament with a huge cash prize for the winner — all of this simply for playing the game.
Mr Green also has the ongoing Reel Thrills promotion, daily mini pokies tournaments that run every fifteen minutes and are played on selected slots games. The more you play and win, the higher you progress up the leaderboard, with each Reel Thrill winner getting a cash prize that is automatically credited to your account.

BANKING
New Zealand players at Mr Green can operate accounts in NZD$ and there are several payment methods available. You can use Visa credit and debit cards, direct bank transfer, and Neteller and Skrill e-wallets to make both deposits and withdrawals. Deposits can also be made using pre-paid PaySafe Card, while MasterCard credit/debit cards can theoretically be used for deposits and withdrawals, although some NZ banks don’t allow you to withdraw from a casino account to MasterCard, so it pays to check in advance.
When you deposit funds, you can expect your cash to be available to play with immediately. Withdrawal times, however, can be on the slow side, and can take anywhere up to 5 working days to process.
You can make one free withdrawal each week, but if you make any more than this you will be charged a fee. Up to $100, the fee is $1, and over $100 you are charged 1% of the withdrawal amount (up to a maximum of $10).
CONCLUSION
For New Zealand pokies players who want variety, high quality games and a good selection of progressive jackpot slots, Mr Green ranks with the very best online casinos that we list. When you throw in the Mr Green live casino and the sports betting site, most players have everything you need in the one brand. The Mr Green casino apps and mobile casino also provide a huge number of gaming options, while the Welcome Bonus is accessible for most players and has a comparatively low playthrough of 35x. The only real drawback is the slower than average payout times, and the fact that you might have to pay a withdrawal fee on occasion, but these are the only real negatives and so we can recommend Mr Green with great enthusiasm.
