eSIM for New Zealand
From Auckland's harbors to Queenstown's adventures, stay connected throughout New Zealand.
Mobile internet in New Zealand
An eSIM for New Zealand lets you sort your mobile internet before you even leave home. You can choose from 29 data bundles from €6.99, with sizes ranging from 1 GB to 100 GB. Need a lot of data? Unlimited bundles are available too.
In New Zealand your eSIM connects to local networks such as Spark New Zealand and Vodafone New Zealand Limited, with 4G and 5G speeds where available.
How much data you need depends mostly on what you do while travelling. For navigation, WhatsApp and the occasional scroll through social media, 1 to 3 GB is usually plenty for a short trip. The smallest bundle for New Zealand starts at 1 GB, so you never pay for more than you need. If you stream a lot of video or share photos every day, pick a larger bundle or an unlimited option.
With an eSIM you pay a fixed price up front and avoid nasty surprises on your phone bill. There is no shop to find for a local SIM, and you keep your own number for messaging. The installation QR code lands in your inbox within minutes.
