‘Categories’ is now 'Marketplace'
Last week we gave you a heads up about a couple of changes we were testing on the desktop site with 50% of members. Today we're making these changes for all members:
• The ‘Categories’ tab on the Trade Me homepage, will now be called ‘Marketplace' and is a new colour.
• If you click on the ‘Marketplace’ tab, you’ll find a new section dedicated to buying and selling on Trade Me. We’ll be trying out some different page designs so you may see this change over time.
These changes are part of some wider work we’re doing to make it easier to buy and sell on Trade Me. We hope you like them! More...
