Does my listing have to go live right away?

No. You can complete and pay for your listing without publishing it straight away.

At checkout, choose either:

• Publish as soon as possible
• Hold the listing until I let you know

You can also arrange a future publication date.

If you chose to hold it, your listing shows as Pending in your account. When you're ready, click the green Activate button on the listing. Don't use Add listing at your address for this: that starts a brand new, separate listing for the same property.

If you request immediate publication, our team checks the listing before it first goes live. Complete listings are usually published within the hour during our support hours: 9:00 am–5:30 pm AEST, seven days a week.

Once a listing is live, routine updates can be submitted and sent to the portals 24/7.
