Supplier listing terms

Operating rules for claimed listings, supplied media, deals, events and paid partner tiers introduced from 1 July 2027.

Last updated 5 September 2026

Free basic listing

A basic verified business listing is intended to remain free. Rarotonga.co.nz decides the directory structure, categories, independent description and whether a listing meets inclusion standards.

Claiming a listing

A claimant must be authorised to represent the business and provide accurate contact and listing information. Rarotonga.co.nz may request reasonable verification before granting supplier access.

Photos and logos

By supplying photos, logos or other media, the supplier confirms it has the right to provide those assets and grants Rarotonga.co.nz permission to use them for the business listing and related Rarotonga.co.nz promotion. The supplier may request removal or replacement of supplied media.

Deals and events

Submitted deals and events must be genuine, current and accurately describe material terms, dates and restrictions. Rarotonga.co.nz may refuse, edit for presentation, expire or remove submissions that are unclear, stale or misleading.

Founding Partner period

Enhanced Founding Partner features are free through 30 June 2027. Any later paid product will be optional and communicated before charges apply. A business will not be automatically enrolled into a paid plan.

Editorial independence

Claiming or paying for a listing does not give a supplier control over independent rankings, comparisons, recommendations or editorial conclusions. Sponsored or featured visibility will be labelled.

Referral reporting

Partner reporting may include aggregated profile views, map interactions, saves and outbound clicks. Reporting is indicative of website activity and does not guarantee bookings or revenue.

Rarotonga.co.nz may update these terms as supplier services develop. Material changes affecting claimed listings will be communicated before they take effect.
