Terms of use

These terms apply when you use squares.nz, whether you're buying a square or running a fundraiser. squares.nz is operated from Aotearoa New Zealand.

Buying squares

  • A square is a contribution to the named fundraiser and, where there is a prize draw, one entry in it. Squares are not tax-deductible donations.
  • You must be 18+, or an adult buying on behalf of someone younger.
  • Prices are in NZD. Card payments are processed securely by our payments provider.
  • Pictures you add must be yours to use, family friendly, and have the consent of anyone shown. We may remove any picture.
  • Refunds are at the fundraiser's discretion, or where a campaign can't proceed.

Running a fundraiser

  • You must tell the truth about who you are and what the money is for.
  • You're responsible for running any prize draw lawfully under the Gambling Act 2003 and for delivering prizes.
  • We review every campaign before it goes live and may pause or close a campaign at any time.
  • We keep the platform fee shown on our pricing page.

Liability

We provide the platform "as is". To the extent the law allows, we're not liable for losses arising from a fundraiser or a prize. Nothing here limits your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act or Fair Trading Act.
