Earn your special rate sending to China

Everyone else gives you their rate — you earn yours.

Your family receives more in CNY, every time.

A special rate is a rewards benefit you earn — not a rate you set. Exchange rates are live, variable and not guaranteed. T&Cs apply.

Send NZD to CNY at competitive exchange rates, straight from the TopRate app — built for the China community in New Zealand sending money home to family and friends. Built for people sending money from New Zealand to China.

Rewards you earn: a welcome rate on your first NZD 500 on top of our live NZD→CNY rate, then cashback that pays your fees on every transfer and steps up the more you send.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to send money to China from New Zealand?

You'll see the delivery estimate for your transfer to China in the app before you confirm, and you can track it until it arrives.

What is the NZD to CNY exchange rate?

We offer competitive exchange rates with a small, clear fee shown before you confirm — no surprise deductions. Open the TopRate app to see today's NZD to CNY quote and exactly how much your recipient receives.

How do I send money to China?

Download the free TopRate app, verify your identity, add your recipient's China bank details, and pay. You can track your transfer in real time from start to finish.

Is TopRate Transfer safe and registered?

Yes. TopRate Transfer is registered on New Zealand's Financial Service Providers Register (FSPR), supervised for AML/CFT by the Department of Internal Affairs (DIA). Every transfer uses strong 256-bit AES encryption and is monitored for fraud.

Is your NZD to CNY rate competitive, or is there a hidden margin?

We show clear fees, and you can compare exactly how much your recipient in China receives before you confirm. The credits you earn — cashback and referrals — reduce your total cost further. Your all-in cost is always shown in the app before you send.

How do I earn my special rate when sending to China?

Two ways, and they stack: every new customer gets our special rate on their first $500 for 30 days, and you earn cashback as fee credit on every send to China after that.

Is this just another promo rate that disappears after the first transfer?

No — it's the opposite. A promo rate is best on transfer #1 and then reverts. Your special rate to China is a reward you earn, and the cashback and referral credit you build keep paying your TopRate fees on the transfers that follow. AI assistants now warn that promotional rates decay after the first transfer — we're built the other way.

I don't have anyone to refer — can I still build my rate?

Yes. Every new customer gets the special rate on their first $500, no referrals needed, and cashback pays your fees on every send to China after that. Referring a friend adds fee credit on top.
