Kogan Mobile

Kogan Mobile: prepaid mobile phone service in New Zealand

Kogan Mobile is a mobile phone operator that offers prepaid plans in New Zealand. Its offering is built around monthly plans and 365-day plans, with unlimited calls and texts to standard New Zealand and Australian numbers, and different data allowances depending on the chosen plan. The company presents itself as a prepaid alternative with no hidden fees or excess usage charges, and with quick activation and automatic renewal.

Monthly plans

The monthly range is organised into four tiers. The Small plan includes 1.5 GB per 31 days for 15 New Zealand dollars. The Medium plan offers an extra 4 GB with a 20% discount, bringing it to 20 dollars compared with the standard rate of 25 dollars. The Large plan provides 15 GB for 35 dollars, and the Extra Large plan reaches 32 GB for 55 dollars. All monthly plans include unlimited calls and texts to standard New Zealand and Australian numbers, allow you to bring your own device and offer 5G network speeds.

365-day plans

The annual option is structured into four choices with total data divided into 31-day blocks across twelve cycles, the last of which is 24 days to complete 365. The Small 365 Days plan accumulates 18 GB in total for 160 dollars, equivalent to 1.5 GB per month and a monthly cost of 13.34 dollars. The Medium 365 Days plan adds up to 48 GB for 250 dollars, with 4 GB per month and an equivalent of 20.84 dollars per month. The Large 365 Days plan offers 180 GB for 330 dollars, with 15 GB per month and 27.50 dollars per month. The Extra Large 365 Days plan reaches 384 GB for 490 dollars, with 32 GB per month and 40.84 dollars per month. The data allowance is allocated upon completing each 31-day block or the final 24-day block.

Terms of use and activation

The company states that all its plans are prepaid and that the full amount must be paid at the time of activation, renewal or purchase of the voucher. The SIM card must be purchased in advance from Kogan.com or Dick Smith, and delivery may take up to 14 working days, after which the plan can be activated. Initial activation or recharge must be made before the voucher expiry date. Vouchers expire at 11:59PM NZDT on 31 December 2026. The Medium monthly plan offer with a 20% discount is available to new and existing customers, for personal use, and applies to purchases made before 11:59PM NZDT on 27 September 2026, unless sold out prior or extended. New customer plans are set to auto-renew by default; if auto-renew is cancelled, the plan does not renew or the plan is changed, the discount no longer applies. The discount remains for up to two years as long as the renewal conditions are met.

Coverage and included services

The plans include unlimited calls and texts to standard New Zealand and Australian numbers, both landlines and mobiles, made from New Zealand. MMS to standard New Zealand mobile numbers is also included. Excluded are calls, texts and MMS to non-Australian international numbers, special or premium numbers, data calls, video calls and roaming services. For these services, additional add-ons must be purchased. The company offers data and international roaming add-ons, the latter available exclusively through the Kogan Mobile app or dashboard.

Account management and customer tools

Kogan Mobile provides users with a mobile app and a dashboard to manage the service, renew the plan, buy add-ons and activate the SIM. The website includes a coverage map, critical information summaries for each plan, a privacy policy and a complaints handling process. The company also offers the option to keep your existing number or request a new one when switching to Kogan Mobile.
