Learn about listing fees and success fees when selling your car, motorbike, boat and more with Trade Me Motors.
Car listing fees
Selling a car on Trade Me Motors is different from listing a general item. You pay a listing fee upfront and there are no success fees when your car sells. We have three options to choose from when listing your car: basic, standard, and premium.
The price depends on:
- the asking price you set for your vehicle
- whether you choose a classified or an auction
- the number of cars you sell within a 12 month period.
Listing durations are up to 90 days. Relisting within 90 days is free.
If you sell 1-9 cars per 12 months
- Relisting within 90 days is free.
- After 90 days, upgraded listings have a reduced renewal fee. Relisting must be done within 45 days of the listing expiring.
Find out how much it costs to list your car by visiting the list a vehicle page and entering your listing details.
If you sell 10 or more cars per 12 months (Trader plan)
Members who qualify as a Registered Motor Vehicle Trader and/or have listed 10 or more cars in any 12 month period on Trade Me qualify for our Trader plan.

Price testing
From time to time, we test new pricing on fees by raising the price or offering a discount. Price changes may run for a limited time, and be specific to a particular category, promotional extra, listing method, success fee or withdrawal fee.
We sometimes A/B test our pricing, so some members will be offered a different price than others. If you have any questions about this, please contact us below.
