Gaming Machine StatisticsThe information below is posted on the Department's website at quarterly intervals. It shows the numbers and types of societies licensed to operate approved gaming machines at approved venues on that day. It does not include any gaming machines, societies or venues that were, or may become, the subject of an amendment or new application to operate gaming machines and were therefore unlicensed on the date shown.For more information about the latest gaming statistics, please read our media release: Annual pokie spend continues down (20.07.10) Society, venue and gaming machine numbers:* Summary graphs of gaming machines by society:* Summary graphs of gaming machine venues by society:* Timeline of gaming machine numbers from June 1994:* Gaming machine venues, numbers and expenditure by territorial authority:* Note: From June 2010 the 'summary of expenditure by district' and 'difference in expenditure by district and society' statistics will be available in Excel spreadsheet and PDF format.
If you are looking for statistics dating back further than those listed above, please see our Archived Gambling Statistics page. This table lists the sites/venues that were on a society’s schedule of sites on 17 October 2001. Sites or venues that were on a society’s licence on 17 October 2001, and have not been without a Class 4 venue licence for a period of six months or more, may operate up to a maximum of 18 gaming machines. The actual total will depend on the number of notified gaming machines shown in the table below. Contact the Gambling Compliance Group to find out if there has been a period of six months or more during which no licence was held. The following table lists the number of gaming machines notified as being operated at named venues as at 22 September 2003. Where this number is less than 18, and the venue is one which is subject to s.92 of the Gambling Act, a territorial authority consent is required to increase gaming machines numbers from that notified.
Gambling Expenditure StatisticsThe following document shows the amount spent on the four main types of gambling activity - racing, New Zealand Lotteries Commission, gaming machines (outside casinos) and casinos - between 1985 and 2009. For more information about gambling expenditure, please read our media release: Annual pokie spend continues down (20.07.10)Key Trends over the 2008/2009 PeriodIn 2008/09 gambling expenditure (player losses) decreased by less than one percent (by 0.3%, from $2.034 billion to $2.028 billion). This is a result of an increase in expenditure on Lotteries Commission products, but decreases in expenditure on racing and sports betting, non-casino gaming machines and casino gambling. The 2008/09 figure is below the peak expenditure figure of $2.039 billion in 2003/04.
