The table below summarizes the core facts about Mitre 10 Trade Hub for quick reference.

What is Mitre 10 Trade Hub?

Mitre 10 Trade Hub is the online portal for trade customers in New Zealand to access pricing, ordering, and account management. It’s a new, improved version of the original trade platform designed for business on the go.

Overview of features

Once logged in, trade account holders can create estimates, manage orders, handle staff details, and adjust custom settings—all from a mobile-friendly interface. The portal pulls live Mitre 10 pricing, so quotes reflect current stock and trade rates rather than retail estimates.

Differences from standard Mitre 10

Standard Mitre 10 accounts serve general consumers. Trade Hub login requires business verification, including a NZ GST number, and grants access to exclusive trade pricing tiers not available to retail shoppers. According to Mitre 10 Trade (their official trade portal), this separation ensures contractors get competitive bulk rates while everyday shoppers still find what they need at Mitre 10 stores.

What are the benefits of a Mitre 10 trade account?

The trade account opens doors that consumer accounts simply don’t have. Here’s what being inside actually delivers.

Account perks

Trade Hub login grants access to exclusive trade pricing tiers, bulk ordering capabilities, and dedicated account management. Support is NZ-based, available 8am-5pm weekdays, so help comes from people who understand local project timelines and supply challenges.

• Dedicated staff support at 84 stores nationwide
• Get the job done on budget and time with trade-exclusive pricing
• Free login with no additional fees for basic access

Support for trades

Mitre 10’s trade programme includes dedicated staff trained to handle contractor queries, plus online resources covering everything from GST registration to delivery scheduling. Login issues can be resolved via customer support at trade@mitre10.co.nz, with technical requirements posted on the official portal for smooth access.

How to use SmartMate?

SmartMate is Mitre 10’s cloud-based trade management software built for New Zealand trade professionals. Over 5,000 NZ trade businesses already use it alongside their Trade Hub accounts. The platform integrates directly with Mitre 10 Trade for seamless quoting and ordering.

Getting started

To login to SmartMate, users need credentials linked to their Mitre 10 Trade account. The SmartMate login guide recommends using single sign-on (SSO) for existing Trade Hub users, which means one set of credentials covers both platforms. Two-factor authentication is enabled for SmartMate logins linked to Trade Hub, providing an additional layer of security.

Cash accounts FAQs

SmartMate provides job costing, invoicing, and Mitre 10 product integration post-login. The integration allows users to pull live Mitre 10 pricing directly into their job management dashboard. SmartMate offers a free trial for approved Mitre 10 trade accounts, though pricing for premium features beyond the free tier is unclear from current documentation.

Is Mitre 10 trade only?

This is a common misconception worth clearing up directly. The Trade Hub itself is trade-only, but Mitre 10 as a retailer serves everyone—the trade portal is simply a separate access layer for professionals.

Eligibility

Trade accounts must be approved by Mitre 10 before accessing the Trade Hub login. The approval process requires business verification including a NZ GST number for NZ users. Non-trade customers can apply to become trade customers via the Mitre 10 Trade site if they meet the business registration requirements.

Who can apply

Tradespeople, construction businesses, and account holders who can demonstrate legitimate business activity qualify for trade accounts. The platform operates New Zealand only—no regional variations exist outside NZ for Mitre 10 Trade Hub or SmartMate. Australia has a separate Mitre 10 AU trade portal with no SmartMate integration.
