A secure escrow marketplace for New Zealand services and trades
Hire with confidence. Post any job (building, plumbing, electrical, cleaning, landscaping or digital work) and get quotes from verified local tradespeople and operators. Your payment is held safely in escrow and only released as milestone progress payments when the work is signed off.
Find trades work and get paid. Operators and tradespeople can find work near them, quote in seconds, and know the money is already secured in escrow before they start, with same-day payouts straight to a New Zealand bank account.
Escrow built for NZ. Funds are held in NZD, GST is handled correctly, and every milestone is protected end to end. It is a safer alternative to paying deposits up front or chasing invoices.
Frequently asked questions
- What is COIN?
- COIN is a New Zealand task marketplace and escrow service. Clients post jobs and get quotes from verified tradespeople and service operators, then pay through secure milestone-based escrow so money is only released when work is approved.
- How does escrow work and is my money safe?
- When you fund a job, your payment is held in escrow in NZD rather than going straight to the operator. Funds are released milestone by milestone as each stage of work is approved, and our dispute resolution process protects both sides if something goes wrong.
- How do I find trades work or get jobs on COIN?
- Sign up as an operator, complete verification, and browse the job marketplace to quote on tradies and services work near you. Because every job is funded into escrow before work starts, you know the money is there before you pick up the tools.
- How do I hire a tradesperson or get quotes?
- Post your job for free, describe what you need, and verified operators send you quotes. Compare profiles and prices, choose who you want, fund the job into escrow, and release payment as the work is completed.
- What does COIN cost?
- Posting a job and receiving quotes is free. COIN charges a transparent service fee on completed work, shown up front before you fund a job, with same-day bank payouts available to operators.
- Is COIN available across New Zealand?
- Yes. COIN works nationwide across New Zealand for trades and services, with all payments handled securely in New Zealand dollars (NZD).
