Our new instant payments system Ping
Today we launched a new instant payment system for Trade Me members called Ping.
We’ll be releasing Ping to all members over the next few months. But, if you’d like to be amongst the first to try it out, you can apply for early access which will begin from next week.
Ping is a massive upgrade to how you currently make payments on Trade Me, and it’s going to make buying and selling on Trade Me even easier, faster and safer. More...
Upcoming terms and conditions change
Today we launched Ping – our new service to make payments even easier, faster and safer.
The Ping terms and conditions and direct debit terms and conditions come into effect on 22 March 2017 and will be incorporated into the standard terms and conditions.
As Buyer Protection will be available through Ping, we’ll also be making some related changes to our Buyer Protection policy (including clarifying when we share information in disputes) and to our standard terms and conditions. More...
Motors pricing has changed
As we announced last week, today we've changed the listing fees for classified listings on Trade Me Motors. All other fees on Trade Me Motors will remain the same.
We’ve reduced the listing fee for vehicles under $5,000, including adding a new $9.99 listing fee for vehicles under $1,000. We've also added two new pricing tiers and increased the listing fees for vehicles over $5,000.
You can see the new pricing over on our fees help page.
