FAQS
Looking for a getting started guide?
Is the physical SIM free?
Yes, the SIM is free and the cost of delivery to you anywhere in the world is free. 2degrees are hoping that their fantastic service & plans will mean you will keep using the SIM and of course refer to friends and family. eSIMs are not free as we sell these preloaded with plans already on them.
What plans are there and how much are they?
There are plans starting from just NZ$10. The three most popular are $10, $19 & $30. Go here for more details. For a full list of 2degrees plans go here.
