Market data, watchlists and alerts
CarbonTrader includes market visibility tools so users can follow public activity, notices, watchlists and alert rules from one account area.
Market pulse
The public market pulse page gives visitors a quick view of available summaries and notices. Account users may access additional analytics depending on their entitlements and data subscription settings.
Watchlists
Watchlists help users monitor carbon market activity that matters to them. This is useful for teams that want a structured place to record thresholds, interests or preferred activity.
Alert rules
Alert rules can support timely notification when selected conditions are met. This helps reduce the need to manually check every marketplace page throughout the day.
Professional reporting fit
Market data tools sit alongside reporting, exports and enterprise API access. Together they help active users keep carbon information aligned with internal processes.
Where this fits in the wider ETS environment
CarbonTrader is designed to support marketplace and settlement workflows, while the official ETS system remains the record infrastructure for unit holdings and transfers. Participants can read more about ETS accounts through the New Zealand Emissions Trading Register and should make sure their own account details are accurate before requesting delivery outside the CarbonTrader wallet.
Using this part of CarbonTrader responsibly
This page is part of a wider trading and settlement platform, so it should be read with the broader account journey in mind. Public information helps users understand what the platform offers, but important actions such as bidding, responding to buy requests, creating organisation records, changing settlement instructions or using reporting tools require authenticated access and the right permissions.
Before taking action, users should check that their profile is complete, their ETS and bank details are accurate, and any organisation authority has been confirmed internally. Carbon trading can involve operational, accounting, tax and compliance considerations, so clear records matter. CarbonTrader is designed to support those records through account history, notifications, wallet activity, settlement events and reporting tools.
The platform does not provide financial, legal, tax or investment advice. Users should make their own commercial decisions and seek professional advice where appropriate. For official information about the New Zealand emissions trading environment, refer to the New Zealand Emissions Trading Scheme and the New Zealand Emissions Trading Register.
For active users, the account area is the best place to keep work organised. It groups verification, profile details, wallet settings, organisations, forestry workflows, RFQs, market data, enterprise reporting, government auction invitations and notifications into clear tabs so users do not need to scroll through every tool at once.
What to do next
New users should start with verification, then complete the trading profile in the account area. Existing users should sign in before taking action so the platform can apply the correct account status, organisation role, wallet preference, settlement instruction and notification settings.
For businesses, it is sensible to decide who is authorised to create opportunities, approve settlement instructions, review reports and respond to notices before active trading begins. That preparation reduces delays when an auction, buy request, RFQ or settlement record needs attention.
