Cheque (change topic)

You can top up your Trade Me account by sending us a cheque. It can often take a few days for this to appear on your Trade Me account as we are reliant on postal services.

Please do not send cash – cash payments will NOT be credited to your Trade Me account.

If you would like to credit your Trade Me account by cheque, please select "Pay by other means" from the ‘Credit my Trade Me account’ page. 

Note: cheques are subject to normal bank clearance.

We recommend making payments directly online into your Trade Me account. This is instant and the most secure method of topping up your account.
