NZD Bank Account
Answered
Hi there,
Some months ago we opened an account in TradeMe.
We are an Australian business registered in Australia and with our headquarters in AUstralia.
We didn't continue our integration with TradeMe since our bank details were rejected by TradeMe.
We shared with TradeMe our Wise bank account in NZD but they didn't accept it.
I have been talking with colleagues in the industry and they told me that a lot of Australian Businesses sell in TradeMe and they just use their AUD account to receive payments.
We do have several accounts in Australia including CBA, Macquarie Bank which are in AUD.
Can anyone confirm if that is possible? It seems impossible to get confirmation from support.
Regards

The T&C require you to...
[To sell] from a country other than New Zealand, you'll need to offer buyers the option of paying by at least one of: Ping, Pay Now, Afterpay, or payment to a domestic New Zealand bank account.
Unfortunately scammers have been using Wise NZ accounts to scam Trade Me buyers, so not too surprised that if Trade Me gets a whiff that it is a Wise account they will deny you.
You may talk to Westpac, ASB or ANZ about setting up a local New Zealand account from in Australia, I think it might be possible with one of them, I forget which, although you might have to make a trip to finalise it.
