Promo tiles give a preview of priority content. They consist of a title, description and image.

Promo tiles can be a variety of widths. They can display across the space available in groups of 1, 2 or 3. On extra small screens they snap to full width.

Where tiles are used

Govt.nz has promo tiles on 2 sections of the home page to link to timely or new information.

Promo tiles are owned and managed by the Govt.nz team. Tile placement is decided according to business needs, the timeliness of the content, and user priorities.

Under ‘More on Govt.nz’

These tiles link to distinct topic areas, or timely information that is usually delivered on Govt.nz.

Govt.nz displays up to 6 promo tiles at any one time.

Under ‘New government services and tools’

These tiles link to new services or tools to help with initial promotion, and to help gather feedback from users.

These links are not permanent navigation points, and are only provided for a fixed term (usually 1 month).

Govt.nz displays up to 3 promo tiles in this area at any one time.
