Before you pay
Featured costs NZ$5 total: the NZ$1 listing plus a NZ$4 upgrade. All prices are in New Zealand dollars, with no added charges. Choose your package on the submission form.
Every advertisement needs administrator approval. Payment does not guarantee publication; rejected paid ads are refunded. Reach and enquiries are not guaranteed. After 7 days the ad expires; renewing is a separate paid purchase and review.
Stripe securely processes classifieds payments; The Waikato Advocate is the seller. See our Terms & Conditions, Refund Policy and Privacy Notice.
Other ways to support the site
Reading news is free. Koha is optional support, not an advertising package. Death notices and paid memorials are separate services; paid memorials use separate external Stripe links. Business sponsorship packages are arranged separately with the newsroom.
