Notes on the Pre-support page:

(1) It might be useful, if possible, to embed the existing pre-support lookup functionality into the page, rather than telling people to go to a different page.  Any time people wander off, there’s always a possibility of losing them, instead of them coming back.

(2) The payments section says that US bank transfers are supported, but the payments page only seems designed for NZ bank transfers (and explicitly says that).

 

Notes on the payments page:

(1) It says we’re using Paypal, and doesn’t say anything about Stripe.

(2) The currency converter is really hidden all the way at the bottom of the payments page, where nobody will find it.  It should probably be more findable.

 

But, in general, it all seems fine.

It will also be interesting to see how much the credit card surcharge that NZ has (and that nobody else does) will affect the balance between cash / check / credit card.

As a foreigner, I didn’t expect my hotel bill to get a 3.5% surcharge for using an American Express card to pay my bill (I changed to a Master Card, but still got hit for 1.5%).

Many people in the US still write checks.  A lot fewer than before — and mostly don’t mail them.  But they’re far more common in person than in the mail.
