Plans for New Zealand range from 1 to 50 GB and 7 to 180 days, plus day plans with a fixed daily allowance. You pay once. No contract, no roaming bill.
Prefer a daily allowance? 1 GB per day · 7 days for $11.19: full speed up to 1 GB a day, then 512 Kbps until the next day.
Picked like in our shop: the cheapest plan with about 0.7 GB a day. Live prices for New Zealand.
One NZ (5G). Coverage and speed depend on where you are.
Yes, 5G on One NZ. Your phone needs to support 5G; where there is no 5G signal, it uses 4G/LTE.
Yes, if your phone supports eSIM and is not locked to one carrier. Most iPhones from the XS and XR onwards do, as do recent Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel models. Check yours in our list of eSIM phones.
No. It is data only: no phone number, no calls or SMS. Your own SIM stays in your phone, so WhatsApp and iMessage keep working with your usual number.
About 0.7 GB a day covers maps, messages, social media and some video, so around 5 GB for a week. Our pick for one week: 5 GB · 30 days for $12.19.
1 GB · 7 days for $3.69 is the lowest-priced plan. The lowest price per GB is 50 GB · 180 days at $0.99 per GB. A single day with 0.49 GB costs $2.29.
Plans run for 7, 15, 30 or 180 days. Day plans can be booked for 1 to 30 days.
When your phone first connects to a network in New Zealand, not when you buy or install the eSIM. So you can install it at home before you travel.
Not at full speed. Day plans come closest: up to 10 GB a day at full speed, then 384 Kbps until the next day.
Yes, your phone can share the connection with a laptop or a second phone. Everything you share counts against your plan. Whether a network limits sharing depends on the plan, so ask us before you buy if it matters. More in our hotspot guide.
Yes, on plans marked “Top-up possible”: add data under My eSIMs while the plan is still valid. No new eSIM needed.
On day plans you get full speed up to the daily allowance. After that, the speed drops to between 384 Kbps and 1 Mbps, depending on the plan, until the next day.
Depending on the plan, your connection runs via the United Kingdom. Websites and apps, such as banking or streaming services, may then treat you as being there.
eSIM purchases are final. If something isn’t right, write to us in Help and we’ll take care of it.
