About Trade Me

Trade Me is a New Zealand auction website. It launched in 1999 and operates at trademe.co.nz. The site is classified as both an online auction platform and an e-commerce business.
Trade Me is New Zealand's main online marketplace, running auctions, fixed-price listings, and classifieds since 1999. When problems appear, they usually involve login trouble, slow search, checkout errors, or the app freezing mid-listing. This status page tracks reported issues across the website and mobile apps so you can see whether a fault sits with the platform or with your own setup.
Trade Me lets people buy and sell across New Zealand through auctions, fixed-price offers, and classified ads. It covers everything from cars and property to small household items, with payment and shipping handled through the platform. Users browse, bid, list, and check out on the website or through the mobile apps. Most reported problems fall into a few groups. Search can return slow or incomplete results during busy periods. Checkout and payment steps can stall after a card entry. The app may freeze after an update, refuse to open, or drop the server connection. Product pages and shopping carts can fail to load correctly. Photo uploads on new listings are another common snag. A few checks on your side save time. Make sure the app is updated to the latest version and restart it if it hangs. A slow connection often looks like a site fault, so try switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data. Clear your browser cache if product pages load oddly, and confirm you are logged in before blaming checkout. If listings or bids appear stuck, give the page a manual refresh before reporting it.

Questions

Is Trade Me down right now?

According to reports on this page, Trade Me looks fine for most people. Isolated failures still happen — report yours if you are stuck.

When was the last mass outage?

Why does the Trade Me app freeze when I open it?

A frozen app usually points to an outdated version or a corrupted cache on your device. Update the app first, then force-close and reopen it. If the problem continues, reinstalling the app clears leftover data without touching your account.

What should I check before reporting a checkout error?

Confirm your payment details are current and that you are logged into the right account. Refresh the listing page to make sure the item is still available, then retry once on a different network or browser. This rules out local connection problems before you file a report.
