We understand there is current a problem with the credit card processing network for Visa. This is causing some credit card transactions to be declined. The banks are aware of the issue and are working to fix it. If your credit card is declined please try again shortly.

We announced some big news for Trade Me back in August.

There are still lots of rules around what we can and can’t say, but we wanted to let you know Fairfax Media Limited, our parent company, has officially announced its plans for Trade Me today.

You can check out today’s release from Fairfax Media Limited here, and there is a microsite that has just gone live over at ipo.trademe.co.nz. More...

We hate delaying any new initiative, but sadly we won’t be kicking off the 1-day powered Daily Deals on 1 November as planned.

Delivering a strong consumer-centric mix for Daily Deals is critical and we’re not quite there yet. As a result we will continue with the existing form of Daily Deals, and hold fire on the relaunch until next year. Apologies for any inconvenience.

Meanwhile if you’ve got some quality products in good numbers that you can offer to our members at a great price we’d love to hear from you. Just flick us a note through the Daily Deals contact page.
