New Zealand mobile proxies on One NZ, Spark and 2degrees for Trade Me pages
A mobile login with -cc-nz leaves through Spark, One NZ or 2degrees, the networks that held 96.8% of New Zealand’s mobile subscribers in June 2025. Rotate per request or keep one exit for up to 6 hours, at $3.99 → $2.19 per GB.
Mobile exits sampled11
One NZ 6, Spark 4 and 2degrees 1, through our gateway on 27 October 2026.
On three networks96.8%
The share of mobile subscribers on Spark, One NZ and 2degrees in June 2025; 16 MVNOs had the other 3.2%.
5G population coverage51%
The networks’ average for 2025, about 2.7 million people. 4G reached 99.0%.
Longest session6 h
A session key holds one New Zealand exit for up to 21,600 seconds.
The market
Three networks, and sixteen MVNOs that rent them
In June 2025 the Commerce Commission (ComCom) counted 38% of New Zealand’s mobile subscribers on Spark, its Skinny brand included, 37% on One NZ and 22% on 2degrees. Only One NZ gained share, and ComCom says it could draw level with Spark in its next report.
Sixteen MVNOs, Kogan Mobile, Warehouse Mobile and Mercury among them, rent capacity on those three networks and had 221,000 subscribers. Prepaid leads among consumers: 58% of residential mobile customers were on it in 2025, using just under 3 GB a month on average.
Carriers
Spark, One NZ and 2degrees in an IP lookup
Each network carries its phones and broadband on one main ASN, and ipinfo.io tags all three as mobile. APNIC’s user estimate counts both kinds of line and ranks 2degrees above One NZ; ComCom’s mobile count does the opposite.
| Network | Holder in a lookup | ASN | Mobile subscribers, June 2025 | NZ users | IPv6 | Our sample |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spark (with Skinny) | Spark New Zealand Trading Ltd. | AS4771 | 38% | 32.59% | 0.56% | 4 of 11 |
| One NZ | One New Zealand Group Limited | AS9500 | 37% | 20.33% | 39.4% | 6 of 11 |
| 2degrees | Two Degrees Networks Limited | AS9790 | 22% | 22.37% | 45.6% | 1 of 11 |
Mobile subscribers: ComCom’s 2025 Telecommunications Monitoring Report (29 June 2026); MVNOs held the other 3%. NZ users: APNIC Labs, 25 October 2026, counting every line on the ASN. IPv6: share of users able to use it (APNIC, 26 October 2026). Our sample: the test of 27 October 2026, not the pool. New Zealand logins take no carrier key (those exist for the US, the UK and Germany), so the code below reads the carrier from each exit’s ASN.
Coverage
4G and 5G coverage in New Zealand, 2025
Averages of what the three networks reported to ComCom. 5G reaches half the population but little of the land, since it went into denser areas first.
ComCom, from the networks’ own coverage models. One NZ reported 5G for 64% of the population in September 2025 and Spark for 50%+ in June 2025; 2degrees counted 549 5G sites. The shared rural towers are built by the Rural Connectivity Group, the three networks’ joint venture.
Uses
New Zealand platforms to check from a carrier address

For developers
Find a Spark exit, then reuse it for the whole job
The function keeps opening sticky sessions on ap_a1b2c3-cc-nz-sid-…-time-… until ipinfo.io places one in New Zealand on AS9500, AS4771 or AS9790, and the same proxy URL then serves the rest of the job. Time is set in seconds from 60 to 21600, so -time-3600 is an hour. HTTP goes to port 7000 and SOCKS5 to 7001, with the credentials shown on the dashboard’s Mobile page.

Pricing
What New Zealand mobile traffic costs
A 50 GB purchase is billed at $3.19 per GB for all 50, and gigabytes you leave unused stay on the account.
| Traffic you buy | Price per GB | For example |
|---|---|---|
| 1–9 GB | $3.99 | 5 GB for $19.95 |
| 10–49 GB | $3.49 | 10 GB for $34.90 |
| 50–99 GB | $3.19 | 50 GB for $159.50 |
| 100–249 GB | $2.89 | 100 GB for $289.00 |
| 250–499 GB | $2.59 | 250 GB for $647.50 |
| 500–999 GB | $2.39 | 500 GB for $1,195.00 |
| 1,000+ GB | $2.19 | 1,000 GB for $2,190.00 |
Residential is $0.50 per GB cheaper at each tier. Every tier and the free-trial terms are on the pricing page.
Carrier IPs
Spark on IPv4, the other two partly on IPv6
Spark is close to IPv4-only: APNIC put its IPv6-capable users at 0.56% in October 2026, while One NZ had 39.4%, 2degrees 45.6% and the country 32.75%. We found no Spark statement on address sharing; with so little IPv6, we take it that many subscribers share each public IPv4 address, so space out requests on a Spark exit.
Reverse DNS says more than the ASN. Spark’s mobile ranges resolve to names ending mobile.spark.co.nz and its broadband to sparkbb.co.nz. Many One NZ addresses still resolve to vf.net.nz or vodafone.net.nz, names from its Vodafone years, and 2degrees’ broadband answers as vocus.co.nz, orcon.net.nz or callplus.net.nz; 2degrees merged with Vocus in 2022.
Choose the type
Which New Zealand proxy type fits the job
The same three companies run the mobile networks and carry most New Zealand home lines, so a residential exit can sit on the same ASN as a mobile one.
Mobile
One NZ, Spark and 2degrees
- Shared addresses on the three national networks
- Country key
-cc-nz; the carrier shows in the ASN - Rotation per request, or a session of up to 6 hours
- From $3.99 down to $2.19 per GB
Use it for app tests, ad checks and accounts you manage.
Residential
New Zealand households
- 62K+ residential IPs in the pool, October 2026
- Mostly 2degrees, One NZ and Spark home lines
- Region and city keys, described on the New Zealand proxies page
- $3.49 → $1.69 per GB
For Trade Me, grocery and property data at volume.
Static
ISP and datacenter IPs
- Rented per IP, one customer each, the address fixed for the term
- Datacenter IPs by the term, $0.50 for 3 days to $2.00 a month; ISP $4.00 per IP / month
- Countries with static ISP and datacenter IPs are listed on the order page
For one address that has to last.
The Privacy Act and mobile work in New Zealand
The Privacy Act 2020 covers personal information however it is gathered and is policed by the Office of the Privacy Commissioner. IPP 3A, in force from 1 May 2026, adds a duty for indirect collection: an agency that obtains someone’s personal information from another source must take reasonable steps to make them aware, unless an exception such as publicly available information applies.
Profiles, posts and photos on social apps are personal information. A project that uses faces for recognition or similar biometric processing also falls under the Biometric Processing Privacy Code 2025, binding on new processing since 3 November 2025 and on existing processing since 3 August 2026. Prices, ad placements and your own app’s screens hold no personal information.

New Zealand mobile proxy questions
A proxy that hands your traffic to a One NZ, Spark or 2degrees connection, so sites and apps see a New Zealand phone network. It pays off when that matters: your app on local carriers, Trade Me’s mobile site, ads on Facebook or TikTok, your own social accounts.
We publish no New Zealand mobile count; the dashboard lists what is available once you create a mobile login. The exits come from One NZ, Spark and 2degrees, the three national networks.
Not with a login key. Read the ASN of each sticky session and keep the one you want: AS9500 is One NZ, AS4771 Spark, AS9790 2degrees. Kogan Mobile and the other MVNOs run on those three networks, and the login has no MVNO choice either.
4G covered 99.0% of New Zealanders in 2025 and 5G an average of 51%, and since April 2026 no 3G network is left. The login has no say in which one an exit uses, and a lookup does not show it.
Mobile traffic is bought by the GB on the dashboard: $3.99 per GB for 1 to 9 GB and $2.19 from 1,000 GB, with the tier’s rate applied to every gigabyte of that purchase. Traffic does not expire, and the pricing page lists the tiers in between.
You set it with -time-, from 60 to 21600 seconds: -sid-akl1-time-21600 holds one exit for six hours unless the device behind it reconnects first. Each new session name brings a different exit, and without one requests rotate.
For Trade Me, grocery and property pages at volume, residential: 62K+ residential IPs in the pool, October 2026, region and city keys, and $0.50 less per GB at each tier. Pay the mobile rate when an app, a mobile ad or an account normally runs on a phone.
City placement on mobile is where available: open the dashboard generator to see which New Zealand regions and cities it offers, then confirm an exit’s town in the IP checker.
The Privacy Act 2020 governs what you do with personal information, whatever connection carries it, and since May 2026 IPP 3A asks agencies to make people aware of indirect collection, with an exception for publicly available information. Each site’s terms apply as well. Not legal advice.
Yes, for your own or your clients’ accounts, kept within each platform’s rules. Pin each account to one sticky session on New Zealand exits for as long as you work in it. Setup notes: TikTok proxies.
Nobody tells you who runs a free proxy, and its operator can read or change your traffic. Look the address up first: a New Zealand mobile exit sits on AS9500, AS4771 or AS9790. Cloud networks carry few real users there, Amazon’s only 0.25% in APNIC’s table, so a free New Zealand exit on a cloud ASN is a server.
