Terms of use

Social Pokies Play is for adults aged 18 years or older. By entering the site and confirming your age, you declare that you meet this requirement. If you are under 18, please do not use the site.

Social Pokies Play is a free-to-play social gaming website offering original browser games for entertainment only. It is not a gambling service: we are not a casino, a betting operator or a gambling provider of any kind, and nothing on this site constitutes gambling under the Gambling Act 2003 or any other law.

There are no payments, no purchases, no deposits, no withdrawals and no prizes of any kind on this site. Nothing you do here can win or lose you money or anything of value.

Our games use virtual coins, points and scores. These are play tokens with no real-world value. They cannot be bought, sold, traded, exchanged, transferred or redeemed for money, goods or services — by us or anyone else. We may change, reset or remove virtual balances at any time as part of operating the games.

Game results are generated on your device for entertainment. They are designed for fun, do not represent real gambling odds, and are not connected to any real-money gaming system. No outcome on this site should inform any real-world gambling decision.

The Register and Log in pages are a visual preview only. No account system is active: the forms do not submit, transmit or store any information you type, no passwords are saved, and no accounts are created. All games are available without an account.

The site uses storage in your browser to remember your age confirmation, your storage preference and — if you allow it — virtual balances, scores and game settings. This data stays on your device and can be removed at any time through your browser settings. See our cookies & storage policy for details.

By using the site you agree not to:

• use it if you are under 18, or help anyone under 18 access it;
• attempt to sell, trade or assign virtual coins, points or scores;
• use the site to promote gambling, betting or any real-money gaming service;
• interfere with, copy, scrape or reverse-engineer the site or its games;
• misrepresent the site as a gambling product or as offering real prizes.

The games, artwork, logo, text and design of Social Pokies Play are our original work and are protected by copyright. You may enjoy them on this site; you may not reproduce or redistribute them without our written permission.

The site is provided “as is” and “as available”, free of charge. To the maximum extent permitted by New Zealand law, we make no warranties about availability, accuracy or fitness for purpose, and we are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of the site — including loss of locally stored virtual balances or scores. Nothing in these terms limits rights you may have under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 where it applies.

Although no real money is involved here, we encourage balanced play: short sessions, regular breaks, and stepping away whenever play stops feeling fun. If gambling elsewhere is causing you or someone close to you harm, see our responsible play page for free New Zealand support services.

We may update these terms from time to time as the site evolves. The latest version will always live at this address, and continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
