HOW DO I GET HELP?
There are a couple of ways to get help.
Contact the ESNZ Office on 04 499 8994 or email [email protected]
You can checkout our frequently asked questions and how-to videos too.
WHY HAVE I RECEIVED MORE THAN ONE EMAIL WITH INSTRUCTIONS TO RESET MY PASSWORD?
If you have received more than one email with instructions to reset your password for the new database, then this would indicate that you have a duplicate account. ESNZ staff did their best to find and remove as many duplicate files as possible before migrating, but we know we may not have captured them all.
If you receive more than one email, please contact the ESNZ Office on 04 499 8994 or email [email protected] so that we can merge your accounts and ensure that you only have one account going forward.
WHY IS MY PASSWORD TO THE PREVIOUS DATABASE NOT WORKING ON THE NEW DATABASE?
A person’s password is private to them and so could not be transferred from the previous database to the new database. Members will need to set a new password for the HorseReg system.
HOW DO I RESET MY PASSWORD?
To reset your password, go to horsereg.com, click login, enter your email address and then click the reset password link and follow the instructions.

WHY IS MY DATA NOT ACCURATE?
ESNZ undertook a lot of data cleansing in order to move to the new database – namely horse height, horse colour and horse breed.
Please double check your horse’s data and if it is not accurate, please let us know via one of the following methods:
Contact the ESNZ Office on 04 499 8994 or email [email protected]
Or log a ‘Change request’ from the database – you can do this by clicking on your name in the top right-hand side, then horses – manage – change request.


Or checkout our video on how to do this.
HOW DO I GET BACK TO MY DASHBOARD?
The dashboard is the central place to kick-off everything you need to do in the database.
To get back to your dashboard, you can click on the ESNZ logo in the top left-hand side on your screen to take you back.
You can also click on ‘View ESNZ dashboard’ from the home page to take you back.

WHY CAN I SELECT MORE THAN ONE TYPE OF MEMBERSHIP?
This is a new feature in the database and enables ESNZ to capture all the information it needs from those members that have many roles within the sport.
You can select as many of the membership options that apply to you, but you will only ever pay for one of them, and defaults to the highest fee.
HOW CAN I MANAGE THE REGISTRATIONS FOR MY OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS INVOLVED?
You can manage the registrations for all of your family members from the one account.
From the home page you can ‘choose a different profile to manage’ and then select the family member to wish to manage.

Or under the horses tab, you can choose ‘Manage horses for:’ and switch between family members.

HOW DO I SEARCH FOR ANOTHER MEMBER AS A SECONDARY OWNER?
When creating a new horse, you can choose people under your account to be associated with the horse.

If you wish to look up other people (not associated with your account), you will need to know their email address and date of birth. HorseReg uses name, email and date of birth to reduce creating duplicate accounts.
Enter the person’s details in the ‘look up other people associated with this horse’ fields and click search.

It will then search for this person in the database and return any matches. Select the person you wish to add and enter their email address to proceed. If you do not remember the email address associated with the person, a notification email will be sent to the them.

WHAT FORMS OF PAYMENT WILL BE ACCEPTED IN THE DATABASE?
The HorseReg system is built to only accept payment via Credit or Debit Card.
Please note that a 4.8% transaction fee applies. The fee is broken down as follows:
-
Interpodia/HorseReg software transaction fee 0.5%
-
Merchant (Stripe) fee: 2.8%
-
ESNZ Development (Database) fee: 1.5%
WHAT ARE THE FEES ASSOCIATED WITH THE NEW DATABASE?
Please note that a 4.8% transaction fee applies. The fee is broken down as follows:
-
Interpodia/HorseReg software transaction fee 0.5%
-
Merchant (Stripe) fee: 2.8%
-
ESNZ Development (Database) fee: 1.5%
WHY IS THE DATE AND TIME ON MY RECEIPT IS INCORRECT?
The HorseReg database is a Canadian product, therefore that date and time on your receipt will be showing the date and time that your transaction when through in Canada. Canada is currently 21 hours behind NZ.
HOW CAN I CHANGE MY HORSES NAME?
If you wish to change your horses name, you can do this by clicking on your name in the top right-hand side, then horses – manage – name change.


WHY IS MY HORSES BREED BEEN CHANGED TO UNKNOWN?
ESNZ have updated the breed details to remove information on cross breeds. If your horse was a cross breed its breed will now show in the new database as ‘unknown’.
We have also updated the database so that the breed is no longer a free text field. Instead a dropdown menu of breed options is available.

WHY IS MY MEMBERSHIP STILL SHOWING AS PENDING?
As part of the new ESNZ database all members are required to sign a waiver agreeing to the rules and general regulations of the sport. If you are an official you will also be asked to sign a health and safety waiver.
Members that renew their membership online via the database will be asked to sign these waivers as part of the registration process. However, if you contact the office to have them complete your membership, this waiver will be emailed to you for signing from the database – you must then click on the link to sign the waiver. Until the waiver is signed your membership is not complete.
If your membership is showing as “processing” and you have missed or deleted the waiver email, please get in touch with the ESNZ Office on 04 499 8994 or email [email protected],nz and the team will email it to you again.
