Nomad eSIM Data Plans for New Zealand

Nomad does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM plan for New Zealand. All of the plans available for the country have a specific data cap, even though some are named “unlimited.” Those names mean the user receives high‑speed data up to the capped amount; once that limit is reached the data rate is throttled to a lower speed.

For travelers who need a large amount of data, Nomad offers fixed‑data plans such as the Regional APAC 5‑day plan with 37.5 GB, the 10‑day plan with 75 GB, or a 50 GB plan valid for 45 days. Choosing a fixed‑data option can be more cost‑effective for most users, unless they require an extremely heavy data consumption that exceeds these limits.

Nomad does not provide an eSIM plan for New Zealand that includes a phone number or SMS capability. The only options available are data‑only eSIMs.

Travelers who need voice or text messaging can rely on VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram or iMessage, which work over the data connection provided by the eSIM.

Nomad offers nine single‑country data plans and 28 multi‑country plans that include New Zealand. Across these options, data allowances range from about 1 GB to 75 GB, prices run from roughly $4.50 to $170 USD, and validity spans from three days up to a full year.
