nextSIM eSIM Data Plans for New Zealand

No, nextSIM does not provide a true unlimited data eSIM plan for New Zealand. The plans that carry the “Unlimited” name in their titles all have a fixed high‑speed data allowance of either 1GB or 2GB, and after that limit is reached the speed drops to a reduced level (512 kbps or 2000 kbps). For travelers who need more than this, nextSIM offers fixed‑data plans such as the 100GB 30‑day New Zealand Standard plan or the 20GB 30‑day New Zealand Economy plan, which give larger data allowances without the speed throttling that accompanies the “Unlimited” names.

nextSIM does not offer any New Zealand eSIM that includes a local phone number or SMS capability. The provider only sells data‑only eSIM plans for travelers visiting New Zealand.

To make voice calls or send messages while using a nextSIM eSIM, travelers can rely on VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage, which operate over the data connection.

nextSIM offers 28 single‑country data plans for New Zealand and 50 multi‑country plans that include the country. The plans range in price from about $2.29 to $1,276.89 and provide data caps between 1 GB and 100 GB, with validity periods from 1 to 30 days. Some plans use a daily data cap while others provide a fixed data amount, allowing travelers to choose between predictable usage and flexible daily limits.
