You feel inflation at the supermarket long before you read about it in the news. A trolley that ran you $200 a year ago is closer to $206 now. That might not seem like much, but the increased power bill, the higher insur
Picture the Sunday-night version of this. One partner has the banking app open on the couch, the other is squinting at a Hnry summary on their phone, and there's a Google Sheet on the laptop that stopped being accurate a
A BNZ ad for a 1.6% "high-interest" savings account. That doesn't even keep pace with inflation. The default narrative is that a savings account means whatever your own bank put in front of you — and on the four big bank
The most expensive thing about being self-employed in New Zealand isn't tax. It's the deductible business expense that came off your personal credit card in November and never made it to the accountant in March. A self-e
If you've got a trust, a rental or a side business, you know the March routine. Your accountant emails asking for the year's transactions, the rental statements, and "any receipts you've got." You lose a weekend exportin
A decade ago, as Opes Partners' Ed McKnight puts it, "every man and his dog had a trust." That default has quietly collapsed — three regulatory shifts (the Trusts Act 2019, the 39% trustee tax rate, and tighter IRD discl
Search traffic for "when to see a financial advisor" in NZ has doubled in the last year. The question almost every SortMe user eventually asks is some variant of: is my situation complicated enough to warrant an advisor
Most NZ households know their credit score matters when they apply for a mortgage — but the number that actually runs their life is the one they look at once a month and interpret from vibes. Apps tell you how much you s
You earned an extra $20,000 this year. Twelve months on, the bank balance is roughly the same, the car is a year newer, the family went somewhere warmer in July, and the kitchen finally got the renovation that was always
Sharesies, Hatch, and Kernel turned the NZ share market from something Kiwis read about in the Weekend Herald into something you can open on the couch — fractional shares of Apple or Nvidia from $5, an S&P 500 ETF bought
Should you keep your money joint, separate, or somewhere in between? After thousands of onboarding calls and customer interviews with NZ households, SortMe Founder & CEO Carl Thompson thinks that's the wrong question. Th
Budgeting every dollar sucks. It's also impossible. Traditional budgeting apps ask you to pre-allocate "lunches: $80" or "kids' activities: $50" in January and expect reality to obey — one week leftovers are free, the ne
If you've been saving for your first home, the recent NZ housing headlines probably gave you whiplash. January and February both posted year-on-year declines in sales volumes — the first back-to-back drop in nearly three
For NZ households who've outgrown bank apps and spreadsheets, PocketSmith vs SortMe is often the next comparison they hit — both NZ-built, both go well beyond basic budgeting, and both are recommended by financial adviso
Working out your real net worth sounds simple — add up what you own, subtract what you owe. The catch is that for most NZ households, no one actually sits down to do it until something forces the question: tax time, a mo

If you're searching "mortgage break fee NZ", you're really asking one question: is it worth paying the fee to get a lower rate now? The honest answer is "it depends on three numbers, and most households don't have them i
91 octane in Auckland sat at $2.50 a litre at the start of March. Six weeks later it's $3.04 — a 20% jump on a non-discretionary line item with no warning, and economists are openly discussing $4 a litre as a realistic s
The Reserve Bank has cut the official cash rate nine times — from 5.5% in August 2024 down to 2.25% — and Westpac's economists are calling it an "economic turning point" for New Zealand. On paper, the recovery is here. B
