From 1 December 2022, it will no longer be free to list as an escort with NZ Rent Boys. This is partly to reduce the number of fake profiles and to make sure that everyone who lists with us genuinely wants to make sex work their career.
However, in some circumstances we will offer a free listing. If you would like to be considered for a free listing, email us at nzrentboy@gmail.com
You will have to meet some requirements to get a free listing – we’ll tell you about those when we reply to your email. They are mainly about pictures, your availability, and the type of work you want to do.
Remember, you must be aged at least 18 years to supply sexual services for payment and you must practice safe sex always. That means using a condom.

1/. Create an account and profile on our registration page — Register to become an escort
2/. Verify your email address – make sure you check your spam or junk folders for the verification email.
3/. Pay the fee to activate your account. The cost is only $2 a month ($12 for 6 months or $24 a year).
4/. Email NZ Rent Boys if you would like to be considered for a free account.
5/. Upload at least 3 pictures of you.
6/. If you upload at least 10 pictures of you, your profile may be be upgraded to ‘premium’. Contact us to see if you qualify.
7/. Contact us if you have trouble loading any pictures – this happens sometimes.
If you are serious about escorting, you must have pictures you are willing to share. It doesn’t have to be your face or your cock – but images of your body, nipples, in your underwear – to give potential clients an idea of what they are paying for.
If you haven’t uploaded at least 3 pictures of you within 12 hours of creating your profile, it will be deleted, even if you have paid the registration fee.
There is no excuse for not having a picture. Clients are paying you, so they will want to see what they are getting. You don’t have to show your face or your penis but a body shot or even a closeup of your chest is totally acceptable.
And remember, sometimes less is more. Maybe showing your dick to all might be less enticing than a picture of your bulging cock hidden by briefs.
The better the quality, the more likely you are to attract clients.
Sometimes your pictures may not load properly. Often this is because the file size is too big or our security system rejects your images. When that happens, your profile may freeze, and you won’t be able to update or view it. But don’t panic. Email us to let us know and we will sort the problem for you. You will need to email us the pictures so that we can load them for you.
This is what clients base their choices on. What you say, how you look, the services you offer, and the price they will pay. You don’t need to go into a lot of detail but ask yourself ‘What is my point of difference? What sets me apart from other escorts listed here?’ ‘What will make clients choose me?’
We can’t load videos of you direct to your profile but we can link to them. You will need to email us the video file. The video must be of good quality and we reserve the right to reject any videos without explanation.
Some clients may choose to use our internal mail system rather than text or call you. These are sent to the email address you used to register on the site. It’s almost 100% guaranteed these messages will end up in your spam or junk folder. So as well as regularly checking your inbox, also check your spam folder. Make NZ Rent Boys a safe sender and the messages will be less likely to go to your spam folder.
Besides a well-written profile with quality pictures – the number one way to get bookings is to answer texts and messages as quickly as possible. When clients are looking for an escort, they are horny and if you keep them waiting too long or don’t reply at all – they will get frustrated and choose another escort. And they are unlikely to ask you again.
Your aim should be to secure regular clients – and you will only get those with good communication. One way to let clients know you are available is to use our online indicator – when you are logged in, your profile will show a flashing ‘online’ button to let everyone know. There is also a separate search category showing escorts that are online.
Yes – there will be time wasters – they go with the job. Develop strategies for dealing with them politely but firmly.
As mentioned, the online indicator button will show and flash on your profile whenever you are logged in to the site.
It tells clients that you are around and more likely to respond to messages and texts.
Log in whenever you are looking for business – you just never know who is around. It could be the job you’ve been waiting for.
Only registered users of the site who have paid a fee can see your contact details and message you. We have done this to help make the site a safer place for you. It should also reduce the number of timewasters. However, we won’t stop you from adding contact details within your profile if you choose. And note that if you add a Snap or other social media account to your profile then obviously, potential clients will be able to contact you directly.
As mentioned, the internal message system sends you an email with the client’s message but these are likely to go to your spam or junk folders – so check them often.
You can either pay for a premium escort profile, or if you have loaded 10 pictures or more of yourself, you may qualify for a free upgrade. Email us at nzrentboy@gmail.com to see if you qualify.
Premium profiles always show on the home page and display first when clients do a search. So you will get noticed more easily.
Being a premium escort also tells clients that you are serious about sex work and more eager for business than other escorts.
It costs just $3 a month to be a premium escort. ($18 for 6 months).
Feature spots appear at the very top of the website in the slider. Any escort can pay for a feature spot. It’s a way to be noticed and to tell clients that you are actively seeking work.
You might do it to give your profile a boost, to advertise a special event, a tour to another city, or just to remind clients how good you are.
It costs just $9 a month (about 30 cents a day) to take a feature spot but note that places are limited.
Use our ‘tour’ system to let clients know when you are visiting another location. It’s free for everyone to use. When you are planning a tour, make sure you also change the wording on your profile so that clients know about the days and times you will be in their location.
A feature spot is a good way to draw attention to your tour.
If you are going on holiday or want to take a rest from sex work, you can set your profile to ‘private’. This will remove it from public view and searches.
Alternatively, ask us to put a note at the top of your profile to say that you are taking a break.
If you no longer want to be listed, set your profile to private, and then email us asking for your information to be permanently deleted.
We usually action these requests within 48 hours. Once we delete your profile, it cannot be retrieved. If you wanted to re-list, you’d have to create a new profile.
We are run by a small volunteer group, so we can’t always reply instantly. But we are happy to get your questions and help with anything at all about the site or escorting in general.
