No data? No problem.

Did you know, you can access the websites of health, social services, education, housing and more for free from your smart phone? Just make sure data is turned on and visit zero.govt.nz

The purpose of Zero Data is to allow New Zealanders to access essential information and digital services on their smartphones, even when they don’t have any available data.  

Zero Data is available to anyone using a mobile device connected to the Spark, Skinny, One NZ, 2degrees, Warehouse Mobile, Slingshot or Orcon mobile networks.  

If your mobile device is connected to a participating network, none of the mobile data you use when you visit websites through Zero Data will count against your data cap or incur any charges. All data usage will be charged back to the government agencies that sponsor the websites you visit.  

All you need to do is make sure your mobile data is turned on before you visit Zero Data. You’ll know you’re on Zero Data when you see a green ribbon across the top of the website.  

Some of the agencies available on Zero Data include: 

  • Te Whatu Ora  
  • Te Aka Whai Ora  
  • Healthpoint  
  • Healthify  
  • Plunket  
  • Kāinga Ora  
  • myMSD  
  • and many more.
