DashTickets online gambling magazine’s editor-in-chief Mark Dash has announced a newly established partnership with BGaming that is supposed to help New Zealanders find the best online pokies easier. 

"DashTickets and BGaming have agreed to safely exchange relevant data to help local players quickly find the best available pokies. Our team will include this data in our reviews and base our DashScore around it as well. We believe that this agreement will save thousands of hours and ensure that our compatriots get to vastly improve their casino experience,"

says Mark Dash, editor-in-chief of DashTickets.

Introducing DashTickets

Created by a small team of casino experts in 2009, DashTickets became one of the most popular niche websites in New Zealand, providing lists of the best available casino and online pokies options that cater to the unique needs of New Zealanders.

Nowadays, DashTickets online pokies magazine boasts thousands of active readers who rely on the website to quickly find online pokies options and learn more about the casinos that provide them. 

The team behind DashTickets has come up with its own signature DashScore to speed up this process even further and increase convenience and accessibility for players. Thanks to the recent agreement with BGaming, now it takes just a few minutes to skim through all of the available online pokies and learn about their bonuses, benefits, and downsides.        

"We are proud of what DashTickets has become over the past years, since it took us a lot of work to convince players that what we do is different from what they’re used to at this point. Sadly, most casino-related outlets in the industry exist only to post paid PR articles and advertisements and provide little to no value to actual players. We always wanted to change that and create a positive example that other media in the niche could follow,"

says Mark Dash, editor-in-chief of DashTickets.

Helping local players at all times

As Dash explains, one of the key reasons the project achieved this level of success (outside of its focus on providing unbiased reviews from the player’s perspective) is the fact that DashTickets aims to address the most common issues New Zealand players have to deal with when playing in offshore online casinos. 

For instance, one of the prevalent problems is that most websites don’t allow players to use NZ dollars, meaning that they will have to pay expensive fees for currency exchange. Another example is problems with withdrawals associated with locally available payment gateways.

“We believe that when a casino enters our market, it has to provide the same level of service to New Zealanders as to any other player. However, a lot of the time this is not the case, and sometimes local gamblers have to jump through hoops to be able to enjoy their favorite pokies (for example Crazy Time, Lucky Jet, Book Of Dead, Gates of Olympus). Our reviews and lists base their final scores on this — the better the casino adjusts to local players’ requirements, the higher we will rate it, and vice versa. This way, we help our compatriots find websites that truly provide the best experience suited specifically for them, not just to a general English-speaking player,”

says Mark Dash.  

“There are a lot of things we want to talk about outside of the best online pokies providers. Legal matters, problem gambling, industry news, gameplay strategies — the niche is pretty rich when it comes to topics, and we want to provide a comprehensive overview. Admittedly, this would require a bit of preparation and maybe hiring some extra staff, but we are slowly getting there, so make sure to check our updates from time to time,” says Edward Howarth, author at DashTickets.

Considering how reputable DashTickets has become in the last few years, the team aims to use this popularity to grow the project further, providing a broader picture of the local casino industry to players and keeping them informed on the most important changes and updates in the niche.
