  • Maximum of 4 Passes per connection
  • Does not work with proxies, VPNs or external DNS
  • Fair use policy applies for excessive usage
  • If you run out of data, you are unable to access the apps included in your pass (a positive data balance, or the ability to use casual data on your plan is needed at all times to use the Pass).

    This is so that we can ensure you stay connected (some service still require data not included in the pass to allow content to be displayed correctly. E.g. advertising, notifications, content hosted by other sites, analytics, app updates).  

    If you don't have a positive data balance or casual data on your plan, you will need to purchase additional data to use the Pass.

  • One NZ Passes are available for use within our network only. If you roam overseas, data charges will apply.
    This includes using your monthly data allowance as part of $5 Daily Roaming or your Prepay roaming bundle.

How does the One NZ Pass work?

The Pass provides endless data for using official apps included in the video, social, music or chat categories. Data used outside the included apps is deducted from your normal plan data allowance.
