Services
NZU services designed for buyers, sellers and holders
Carbon Trader gives you a straightforward way to sell NZUs, buy units, store holdings and move funds, all through one New Zealand based platform.
Sell NZUs through auctions and listings
Create an account, enter the details of your auction or listing, and publish NZUs for sale through the platform. Other users can bid or buy outright, while Carbon Trader facilitates the trade and keeps you updated throughout the process.
Buy NZUs through Buy Requests
If you want to purchase a specific amount of NZUs, you can create a Buy Request and wait for a seller to fill it. Carbon Trader then facilitates the trade in the same way, helping both sides stay informed from request to completion.
Store NZUs in a digital wallet
Units can be stored in your digital NZU wallet with Carbon Trader, giving you a practical option for holding NZUs online. This creates flexibility for users who want to keep units ready for future activity on the platform.
Transfer NZUs to your ETS account
If you prefer direct control of your units, Carbon Trader can transfer settled NZUs to your ETS account. This gives buyers and holders a clear path between platform activity and ETS account storage.
Settle funds by bank account or Airwallex
Payments for NZUs can be made using standard credit cards, Airwallex, or bank account transfer, with fees potentially applying depending on the method used. Once a trade is completed, funds can be transferred to your nominated bank account or your Airwallex account.
