Ruby brands, with AceLucky first
Ripper Casino stays the main login on this desk. If you want a different site, these four are the Ruby brands we send New Zealand readers to. AceLucky is first. Offers and country rules are decided on each brand, not in this paragraph.

First among the Ruby brands
AceLucky
AceLucky is a casino-led site with a sportsbook on the same account. The public address is acelucky.com. Public write-ups place it with ProgressPlay Limited, the operator behind a large set of similar brands, and Ruby Affiliates has listed New Zealand among the countries its programme promotes. That is a reason to look, not a guarantee the signup form will accept a New Zealand address today.
Use it when you wanted Ripper’s pokies lobby and would rather have tables, live games, and sport under one login. Read the live promotion after you arrive. We are not repeating a dollar figure or a code, because those change by country and we will not invent an NZ-only offer.
Tracked link. Password is typed on their site only. 18+.
BetNeptune
BetNeptune (betneptune.com) is the sportsbook-leaning brand in the same set, with a casino attached. Players who care about in-play markets look here after AceLucky. It is publicly associated with the same ProgressPlay group. Country access is a check on their registration form. A Ripper account does not carry over, and neither does a balance.
LekkerBets
LekkerBets is the awkward one to explain honestly. The tracked link opens lekkerbets.co.za, a South African address. Public reviews describe UK Gambling Commission and Malta Gaming Authority licensing for the operator. Confirm the seal on their footer yourself. If the registration form does not offer New Zealand, stop. Being listed here does not mean the cashier will take an NZ customer. We list it because it is one of the four Ruby brands in this programme, and people search the set together.
AfricaSports
AfricaSports.com is the sportsbook, casino, and bingo brand in this Ruby four. It is the operator’s site, not a reviews magazine that happens to use a similar name. The same country-gate warning applies. Open it if you want sport first and a casino second, after you have looked at AceLucky and BetNeptune. Do not assume a rand, pound, or dollar offer written for another country is the one you will be shown.

Shared cautions before anyone joins
- You must be 18 or over. The helplines are on the responsible gambling page.
- Each brand has its own login. Reusing a Ripper password is a bad idea even when the sites look related.
- Welcome offers inside the ProgressPlay group are often capped. If you already joined several sister sites, the new-player deal may be withheld. Their terms say so when that rule applies. Read them.
- None of these four, and not Ripper, is described on this desk as holding a current New Zealand online casino licence. Check the Department of Internal Affairs register as that market opens through 2027.
- This page earns a commission if you register through a /go/ link. The order above is the order we chose for NZ readers. AceLucky first is not a paid placement label hiding inside a star rating. There is no star rating.
If you still need the original account, go back to the Ripper Casino login or the short Ripper briefing.
Questions about the Ruby four
Why is AceLucky first?
It is the Ruby brand this desk puts in front of New Zealand readers who want a casino-led alternative to Ripper. That is an editorial order, not a score out of ten, and it is not a promise that AceLucky will accept every NZ signup.
Are these the same company as Ripper Casino?
No. Ripper is sent through a different affiliate path. AceLucky, BetNeptune, LekkerBets, and AfricaSports are the four Ruby brands on this desk. They are alternatives, not extra doors into a Ripper account.
Will my Ripper password work on AceLucky?
No. Each brand has its own account. Never reuse the same password across them, and never type any of those passwords into this website.
Can I claim every welcome offer?
Do not assume so. Brands in the ProgressPlay family often limit how many of their casinos will pay a new-player offer. Read the terms on the brand you open.
