Learn how to use Entropay at Online casinos

By the end of 2018, Entropay was available in more than 120 countries, including New Zealand. This means that it was widely accepted on dozens of websites as a form of payment during withdrawals and deposits. Since October 2018, however, due to restrictions imposed by the issuer of the cards, Visa, the company has ceased to operate in several countries, including New Zealand.

This means that New Zealanders who owned a card had their accounts cancelled and were unable to make new payments on the platform. Today it is no longer possible for New Zealand residents to register on the platform.

Since the end of 2018, o Entropay it is only available in European Economic Area (EEA) countries and Norway .
