2degrees launches unlimited Travel SIM service for visitors
2degrees has launched an innovative new plan for visitors to Aotearoa, designed to make sure they stay connected to friends and family – and (maybe more importantly) Instagram and Google Maps. unlimited Travel SIM New zealand
“Our new Travel plan is simple and easy – it offers unlimited calling and texts to NZ and Aussie, along with unlimited data every day. All customers need to do is select how many days they want, which can be anywhere from three to 30, and they are good to go,” says Zac Summers, 2 Degrees Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer.
“We saw a real gap in the market – a simple plan that takes the guesswork out of how much data you need to buy while travelling. It’s frustrating as a traveller to try and work out how much data you need to, say, use online maps for two weeks. This makes it easy – just pick the number of days and enjoy a stress-free holiday. Jump in the rental, fire up maps, crank up Spotify and start exploring.”
Summers said the Travel SIMs are available at select airports, popular tourist destinations, and 2 Degrees retail stores.
“We know some travellers end up staying longer in NZ than they expected, which is more than understandable; why wouldn’t you? So we have made it easy to add more days too.” unlimited Travel SIM New zealand
The SIM cards stay active for 12 months from the last use, so are ideal for repeat visitors too.
Users can also hotspot and tether on the plan, making it even more useful for people who travel with multiple devices.

Who else offers unlimited travel SIM for visitors in New Zealand?
In addition to 2degrees, two other providers offer unlimited travel SIM cards for visitors to New Zealand: Spark and Skinny.
Here’s a comparison of the three providers:
Provider | Unlimited Travel SIM | Price | Data | Calls and texts | Other features |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
2degrees | $59/week | Yes | 20GB | Unlimited | Data rollover |
Spark | NZ Travel Packs with SIM | From $29 | 3GB | 300 minutes | |
Skinny | $49/week | Yes | 20GB | Unlimited | Data rollover |
As you can see, all three providers offer unlimited calls and texts, but 2degrees and Skinny offer more data for their unlimited plans. 2degrees also offers data rollover, which means that any unused data will carry over to the next week.
The best provider for you will depend on your individual needs and budget. If you need the most data, then 2degrees is the best option. If you’re on a tight budget, then Skinny is a good choice. And if you’re looking for a balance of data and price, then Spark is a good option.
