About Daily Wonders

Daily Wonders exists to give New Zealand players honest, experience-based casino reviews they can trust. We test every operator with real NZD deposits and document what actually happens when you sign up, play, and try to withdraw.

Too many casino review sites rank operators based on affiliate commissions. We don't. Our rankings are based on real testing results — if a casino fails our deposit test, bonus claim check, or withdrawal speed audit, it doesn't make our top 10 list.

We focus on the New Zealand market because regulations, payment methods, and player protections are different here. A casino that works well in the UK might have slow NZD withdrawals or poor support for Kiwi players — and we're here to test that.

Daily Wonders is run by two casino testers who handle all reviews, testing, and editorial content:

• Sophia Novakivska — Lead casino tester and bonus auditor. Sophia handles deposit testing, bonus claim verification, and wagering requirement audits for every casino we review.
• Mark Dash — Senior reviewer and withdrawal tester. Mark runs withdrawal speed tests, customer support checks, and RTP audits for slots and table games.

We don't outsource reviews to freelancers or use AI-generated content. Every word on this site is written by Sophia or Mark after hands-on testing.

Our review process is built around real-money testing. We don't just research casinos — we sign up, deposit, play, and withdraw like a normal player would. This takes time, but it's the only way to know if a casino actually works.

Our 7-step review process includes:

• Licence verification — confirming the casino holds a valid licence from a reputable regulator
• Real NZD deposit — testing payment methods, deposit limits, and processing speed
• Bonus claim test — verifying bonus terms, wagering requirements, and eligibility
• Wagering audit — playing through bonus funds and checking game contribution rates
• Withdrawal speed test — requesting a payout and measuring approval/processing time
• Customer support check — testing live chat, email response times, and agent knowledge
• RTP verification — checking published RTP rates for slots and table games

We do earn affiliate commissions when readers sign up to casinos through our links — but commissions don't determine rankings. Our top 10 list is based purely on testing scores.

If a casino offers us a higher commission rate but fails our withdrawal speed test or has unclear bonus terms, it doesn't get ranked. We've turned down partnership offers from operators who wanted guaranteed top 5 placement.

Our income model is simple: we test casinos fairly, rank them honestly, and earn a commission if readers choose to sign up. That only works long-term if we're giving accurate recommendations.
