.nz zone data gets refreshed every hour on the hour. If your transaction
was processed before the hour, it's highly likely it will make the next
zone push.

The process more or less is:

- on the hour pick the data from the registry and generate the dataset
needed to create the zone (domains, nameservers, ip addresses, DS records)
- Pass the data to the servers that build the zones
- Pass the new zone data to the signers for signing
- Signers pass the signed zone data to the distribution masters
- Distribution masters load the signed zone data, and send NOTIFYs to
all slaves (local and international)
- Zones get transferred and new data is available

Between the first and the last step usually 6 minutes pass, so you
should expect to see new data in the DNS after that.

I hope this is clear enough, not the first to ask this recently.


Cheers!
