Referral terms vary by region and account state.
ChangeNOW does not publish a single headline fee, so this page collects the terms it does publish and links every claim to its source (last checked August 4, 2026). ChangeNOW accepts sign-ups from New Zealand at the time of our last check. Verification rules are summarised below straight from the official help pages, so you know what the platform asks for before you commit an email address. The service has operated since 2017, which we treat as track record, not as an endorsement. New Zealand users generally get full access to global venues, with NZD funding depending on each platform's fiat support.

The table below is the public entry-tier snapshot for ChangeNOW: published fees, verification rules, and account terms, each linked to the official page it was read from and dated August 4, 2026.

Using ChangeNOW from New Zealand
Signing up from New Zealand puts ChangeNOW under a local rulebook, and it is not what the fee table alone tells you. Financial Markets Authority (FMA) oversees retail crypto financial services in New Zealand; 'crypto asset service providers' is a named FMA service category, and crypto CFD providers need an FMA derivatives issuer licence. No bespoke crypto licence: NZ-based crypto exchanges fall under 'operating a value transfer service' and must be registered on the Financial Service Providers Register (FSPR) under the Financial Service Providers (Registration and Dispute Resolution) Act, plus AML/CFT Act obligations. How money actually reaches the order book here: Domestic NZD bank transfer: direct credits and automatic payments cleared through the Bulk Electronic Clearing System (BECS) administered by Payments NZ are the standard way to move money between New Zealand bank accounts. New Zealand retail banks began a phased rollout of a Confirmation of Payee service (payee-name checking before sending money) from late 2024, tightening bank-transfer security for deposits. On tax treatment in this market: Inland Revenue treats cryptoassets as a form of property for tax purposes; taxable cryptoasset income is returned under ordinary income tax rules (there is no separate crypto tax, and buying or selling cryptoassets is not subject to goods and services tax). None of this market context changes the ChangeNOW figures in the table above — it decides how you act on them.
