What is SmileCity?
SmileCity is an online rewards program exclusively for New Zealanders, where you can earn rewards
and have lots of fun.
- Any resident of New Zealand can join. You need to be 14 years or older and have a valid email address. If you are between 14 and 17 years of age, you must have your parent's or guardian's permission to join.
- As a member, you can earn reward points for doing a whole range of things, including online shopping, reading email, answering surveys, clicking on links, and more.
- Once you have accumulated enough reward points, you can redeem your reward points for real money or great merchandise.
- There's lots of fun to be had and a sense of community at SmileCity. Meet new people and discuss all sorts of interesting topics. You can interact with real people, and yet maintain safety and anonymity. Plus there's games and competitions, and lots of other things going on all the time.
What kind of rewards can I get?
Once you've
earned your points, there are a number of different options you have to redeem your rewards.
- Redeem your reward points for a real $30 cheque from the Cash Out page (deposit it in your bank account just like any other cheque).
- Redeem your reward points for a payment card or voucher.
- Bid at SmileCity Auctions. Often the final bid is well below retail. Items up for auction usually include CDs and DVDs, computer software and accessories, fashion, fragrances and much more.
- Donate your rewards to Charity.

I did not receive the membership activation email. Can you send it to me again?
If you have completed the first step of joining but have not yet received the activation email, try the following steps:
- Check your email program's junk mail folder to see if the activation email was filtered by your junk mail filter by mistake. 99% of the time this is the reason why someone can't find their activation email.
To ensure that future emails from SmileCity do not get sent to your junk mail folder, you should add SmileCity to your safe list.
- If you cannot find the activation email in your junk mail folder, you can have a new one sent to you. Request a new activation email.
- If you still do not receive an activation email after requesting a new one, you should try signing up with a different email address.
