Does Betway offer sports betting in New Zealand? - Betway Review

Unfortunately, no. Betway does not offer sports betting to players in New Zealand as of 2025. As a result of recent regulations, like many well-known online gaming brands, they have moved to only offer their online casino to customers in New Zealand.

So although you have likely seen their brand associated with various sporting properties or teams, they can only offer you their top-tier online and live casino experience. If you'd like to know the top online sports betting brands that remain open to Kiwis, see our other notes here, or read about our top New Zealand sportsbooks.

About Betway New Zealand

Established in 2006, Betway does indeed legally serve customers in New Zealand, but only with their casino games, from their platforms based in Malta. You may recognize their brand from numerous advertisements and partnerships across top-flight football leagues, or various NBA clubs, perhaps most notably, they are known as the long-time shirt sponsor of West Ham United of the Premier League.  With millions of customers around the world and plans for further expansion into regulated markets including the US, Betway was also the subject of a SPAC merger, and is now part of the parent company, "Super Group", which is listed on the NYSE under symbol "SGHC".  

Does Betway have New Zealand dollar accounts?

Yes. Since Betway's site is based in Malta, Betway has the flexibility to offer more currencies to its players. Happily, NZD is one of the currencies that is available when setting up your account at Betway, so Kiwis may avoid the expensive and usually hidden FX charges. Again though, only for casino play.

Betway New Zealand's online & live casino

Betway offers one of the top casino sites for New Zealand, with a wide array of both Random Number Generated online casino games, which can include slots, jackpots and table games.  They also offer a wide array of live-dealer casino games that are run by a real-life person as the dealer or croupier of your game, on camera.

Betway New Zealand bottom line: Top class

Betway truly offers one of the best online casino platforms on the market today for customers in New Zealand.
