Referral terms vary by region and account state.

SideShift 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 July 11, 2026). SideShift 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 2019, 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 SideShift: published fees, verification rules, and account terms, each linked to the official page it was read from and dated July 11, 2026. Logged-in tiers, promotions, and regional product lines can differ from the public schedule, so treat these numbers as the starting point for New Zealand and confirm inside the account before moving size.
