Curaçao Document Leak Reveals How New Zealand's Top Online Casino Used Influencers
A massive leak of internal documents from Curaçao shows the methods by which New Zealand's leading online casino expanded its market through local influencers.
The leaked files, originating from the Caribbean island of Curaçao, detail the operations of thousands of offshore gambling sites, including the strategies of New Zealand's biggest online casino. The documents illustrate how the casino leveraged influencer partnerships to drive growth while exploiting the island's lax licensing and limited corporate transparency. Curaçao hosts over 8,000 registered casinos despite its small population, creating a fertile environment for such practices.
Why it matters
The leak shows how offshore gambling exploits weak regulation and influencer marketing to grow, raising concerns for consumer protection and oversight.
