Does anyone have any experience or know if I can use the bulk of my KiwiSaver in a relationship agreement to offset other payments e.g. house?

Apart from retirement and buying your first home, there are a few (narrow) reasons you can withdraw from KiwiSaver. See: https://www.ird.govt.nz/kiwisaver/kiwisaver-individuals/getting-my-kiwisaver-funds-early

You will probably have to talk to your lawyer though.

In case anyone wants to know in the future. Simplicity is the fund I am with and it allowed to me withdraw almost my full balance to pay off my ex

Thanks for the update! Sounds like that was the result you were hoping for, so I'm glad it worked out for you.
