Pricing
The prices displayed on the www.Healthtrade.co.nz website are quoted in NZD dollars and are inclusive of GST. GST is applicable to all orders delivered within New Zealand. Recommended Retail Prices (RRP) displayed on www.Healthtrade.co.nz are the RRPs as provided to us by our suppliers. Savings prices displayed are calculated off the Recommended Retail Price. These savings may not reflect our normal price, as we do not usually sell at the RRP.
Sales to customers outside of New Zealand may be subject to the payment of taxes and charges in their country. These will typically be payable by you before the package is able to be released from customs or your countries postal services provider. As these charges are outside of our control, Healthtrade accept no liability for the advance notice or payment of any such charges levied by your countries customs, import or postal authorities.
Prices for the products and services listed on the site are subject to change without any notice. We do our best to provide accurate pricing information but errors can occur from time to time. We have the right to refuse or cancel any orders placed for products incorrectly priced.
Product availability & rain checks
Product availability is subject to change without notice. Whenever possible, product out of stocks are clearly highlighted on the site - you can choose to receive an email notifying you when a specific product is back in stock. Healthtrade cannot offer rain checks or extend a discount to an out of stock product.
All special offers and promotions are offered strictly only while stocks last and only for the period of the promotion. Promotional pricing or offers may be withdrawn at any time without notice once available stock is exhausted. Healthtrade may choose to end a promotion early for any reason. In this scenario, no rain checks will be given. Promotional expiry dates and times are listed as New Zealand standard time.
From time to time we may run short, specific price promotions without explicit promotion expiry dates in order to clear out stock or achieve other short term business objectives.
Product expiry dates
Most products supplied to you will include an expiry date which will vary depending on the product. Our policy is to not dispatch any product within three months of its expiry date, unless otherwise stated on the product page or where the product is sold or as part of a clearance promotion around the sale of a product with a shorter expiry term.
Payment
Please read our FAQs for everything you need to know about paying for your Healthtrade products and services.
Orders will not be dispatched until satisfactory payment has been received by Healthtrade or any suspected fraud has been investigated. An order or transaction is not complete until products are dispatched. Healthtrade can refuse or cancel any order at its discretion and refund payment.
Healthtrade reserves the right to refuse to deliver any products ordered for any reason, including without limitation, unavailability of stock or a decision by Healthtrade to no longer sell a product. A refund will be given if payment has been accepted prior to any of these reasons.

Healthtrade Rewards
Healthtrade operates a spend and earn Rewards Programme. For every $2 you spend, you'll earn a ‘Healthtrade Point’. You can use your points to redeem e-vouchers or gifts for future orders. (so long as the future order is completed before the Rewards expire).
Rewards are valid for 12 months from your last order.
Healthtrade Rewards are not transferable for cash under any circumstances. Healthtrade Rewards must be selected at checkout for the Rewards discount to be applied. Rewards cannot be applied to an order after it has been placed. For more info, please read our FAQs.
You can see your Rewards balance in My Account on our website. Healthtrade cannot return any Rewards value which is not used as a discount after its expiry date. Please make sure that you are subscribed to our Rewards reminder emails so that we can communicate any upcoming Reward expiries.
Healthtrade will revoke Rewards that have been earned on orders that are subsequently returned or cancelled. If a customer has redeemed their Rewards earned on that order before they are revoked, Healthtrade will apply a negative balance. Any new Rewards earned will clear this negative balance, before any new Rewards will be generated.
Rewards redeemed will not be reinstated where an order is cancelled due to failure to complete payment, an order is cancelled prior to dispatch or for items returned from a dispatched order.
Healthtrade can choose to make changes to our Rewards Programme at any time. Healthtrade Rewards are unsecured and replacement or transferrable items of similar value will be not given in the event Healthtrade ceases trading due to liquidation, sale or some other business event.
Healthtrade reserve the right to edit customer Rewards balances without notification or explanation in the event that we have a genuine reason to believe that Rewards have not been accrued correctly, and/or have been accrued in a way that is not in accordance with the intended use of the Rewards programme.
Promo codes
Healthtrade may, at its discretion, choose to offer discount promo codes to certain customers from time to time. Each promo code will have a clear expiry date and conditions for use. Promo codes cannot be exchanged or the value used for sales that do not meet the promo code conditions.

To enter a competition, a customer must meet the terms of the competition which will be clearly outlined in the relevant promotions. Healthtrade’s decision is final regarding competition winners.
