Network, phone and 5G

The three main networks, One NZ, Spark and 2degrees, all sell prepaid plans. Many prepaid SIMs are 3-in-1 cards, so check the size your phone needs. All One NZ prepay SIMs are 4G and 5G enabled, but your phone must support 5G too.

Rules and guarantees

The Consumer Guarantees Act covers products and services bought for personal or household use in New Zealand, so a SIM or plan bought for home use comes under it. Keep your receipt and ask the seller what happens if the card fails.

Season and travel

Summer runs from December to February, the peak travel months, so visitors arriving then should buy an eSIM or a 3-in-1 card before they land or in the first city, and check the plan length against their stay. A 2026 migrant guide we found puts standard prepaid data at about NZ$5 to NZ$6 per GB, so compare the data in each plan before you pick it.

What to write in the request

Say which network you want, or whether any network is fine, and whether you need a new SIM, a swap or an eSIM. Add whether you keep your current number, how many lines you need, the plan size, and where the SIM should go: Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Hamilton or Tauranga. Give your budget in NZ$.

Creating a request is free for buyers. Describe what you need in your own words in the chat, and BlaBlaPrice's AI asks for missing details and looks through sellers' websites and price lists in New Zealand. Sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice reply with their own offer, and your contacts stay hidden until you choose whom to exchange contacts with.
