Scheduled Maintenance
Just a heads up that Trade Me is going to be unavailable between 2:00am and 3:00am tomorrow morning for scheduled maintenance and upgrades. All auctions that are due to close between 2:00am and 4:00am will be extended by two hours.
We apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause.
New Pay Now process rolling out wider
Back in May we rolled out a new Pay Now process for multiple-quantity listings (MQLs) which allowed buyers to enter their payment details in one quick and easy step. The initial roll-out just applied to listings with Pay Now as the only payment option.
The good news is that in early July we’re extending this feature to apply to all MQL listings with Pay Now as a payment option. For buyers, it means speedier purchases and deliveries. And for sellers it means faster sales and less hassle.
We’ve got more enhancements to Pay Now planned later in 2013, and we’ll let you know when these are happening. More...
Category change: Boats
Hi ho sailor, we’re back with more changes to the way we categorise items on Trade Me. There’s a plethora of items on the site at any one time, so it’s important that we have them sorted correctly.
Next week we’ll be making a number of changes to the Boats & marine category, to more accurately reflect the range of marine-related products available. We’ve added a number of new categories and have taken the opportunity to update some of the old category labels as well. We'll automatically move any listings in all categories that are affected into the most logical categories.
We’re aiming to make these changes next Thursday 6 June. More...
