Your Guide to Everyday Life in New Zealand

Lifetimes.co.nz is a New Zealand website dedicated to making everyday life easier for Kiwis. We provide free, practical guides, articles, and tools to help you navigate everything from finances and health to careers and family life.

What We Offer

  • In-Depth Guides & Articles — Practical, well-researched content covering money, tax, KiwiSaver, health, property, work, and more.
  • Free Calculators & Tools — NZ-specific tools including salary calculators, tax estimators, mortgage planners, BMI calculators, unit converters, and dozens more.
  • Current NZ Data — All our tools use up-to-date New Zealand tax rates, regulations, and figures so you get accurate results.

Who Is This For?

Lifetimes.co.nz is built for everyone in Aotearoa:

  • Everyday Kiwis managing finances and life decisions
  • Students figuring out loans, budgets, and career options
  • Workers calculating salary, leave, and entitlements
  • Families planning budgets, childcare, and household costs
  • Homeowners & Renters comparing options and costs
  • Newcomers settling into life in New Zealand

Why We Built This

We noticed that finding reliable, NZ-specific information often meant trawling through multiple government websites, outdated blogs, and generic overseas tools that don't account for New Zealand's unique tax system, employment laws, or cost of living. Lifetimes.co.nz brings it all together in one place — free, easy to use, and always up to date.

Our Commitment

  • Always free — Every tool and guide on this site is free to use, no sign-up required.
  • NZ-focused — Built specifically for New Zealand with local data and regulations.
  • Regularly updated — We keep our rates, figures, and content current.
  • Privacy-first — Our calculators run in your browser. We don't store your personal financial data.
