Issue with push notifications
We've just discovered an issue that was affecting push notifications over the weekend and into this morning. Certain notifications wouldn't have been received during this time, including 'auction closing', 'you've been outbid', 'question answered', and 'question asked'.
This has now been fixed, and push notifications should be working as normal.
We're sorry for any trouble caused.
Scheduled maintenance
Trade Me will be unavailable on Saturday, 26 May between 2am and 5am for scheduled maintenance. All auctions that are due to close between 2am and 5am will be extended by four hours. We apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause.
Scheduled outage: Courier Post
Courier Post won't be available through our 'Book a courier' service between 5pm Saturday 26 May, and 6am Sunday 27 May, due to some scheduled system maintenance.
Fastway couriers will still be available for bookings, if your pick up is an urban address.
Couriers booked before this time are unaffected and will go ahead as normal, however you may not be able to view the booking info for Courier Post packages during this time. More...
