Video: 24 Hours at Trade Me
Whether you’re browsing during your lunch break, thumbing through your watchlist while on the throne, or finding yourself in a 3am shopping trance, Trade Me is open around the clock and there’s always somebody here to make sure the ship keeps sailing. Join Trade Me’s staffers as they take you behind the scenes of the 24/7/365 operation at Trade Me.

New: Recommended for You
We’ve recently added a new Trade Me homepage stripe called ‘Recommended for You’.
Recommended for You is a tool that makes recommendations for things you may be interested in based on your activity on Trade Me. We think it’s a cool way to help you discover listings in categories you have an interest in.
At the moment, the new stripe will only suggest listings from our general items categories and won’t include suggestions for Property, Motors, Jobs, Services, Flatmates wanted and Businesses for sale listings. More...
Trade Me Property pricing has changed
As we announced two weeks ago, we’ve made some changes to listing fees and promotional fees for private sellers listing property for sale, for rent or car parks on Trade Me Property.
To find out what fees have changed, please check out the tables in our original announcement, or on our fees page.
Please note: in our announcement two weeks ago, we made a mistake saying that properties for rent under $450 per week will have a listing fee of $99. This should have said properties for rent under $400 will have a listing fee of $99. Properties for rent between $400-$799 have a new fee of $139. More...
Trade Me Jobs pricing has changed
As we announced two weeks ago, today we’ve made some changes to casual and job pack listings on Trade Me Jobs.
Casual listings
The price to purchase a casual job listing has increased from $146.96 + GST ($169 incl. GST) to $154.78 + GST ($178 incl. GST).
We’ve also given casual listers the ability to increase their brand’s exposure by adding their logo, banner images and a short description to their listings. More...
Update: new Jobs listing page design
A couple of weeks back we released a new Jobs listing page design to 50% of our members. We’ve looked at the results from this trial and tweaked the design based on feedback we received. Today we’re excited to roll out the final refreshed listing page design across all Trade Me Jobs listings on the desktop site.
What’s changed?
We’ve refreshed the design to ensure the important information is visible in the right places where we think users need it. It’s a cleaner, more contemporary design.
There aren’t any functional changes with the new design so if you have a job listed, you don’t need to make any changes to your listing. More...
