How did Mobile Compare come about? 

In late 2020, a Commerce Commission review for the telecommunications market revealed that Kiwi consumers are significantly spending more than they have to on their mobile plans. 

The Commission urged mobile network providers to ensure that they provide more comparison information to consumers so that they can better understand how much they actually need to spend on their usage. 

“We want to see the [telecommunications] industry catch up to other sectors, like electricity, where consumers and comparison websites are making good use of the ability to compare usage and pricing,” says Tristan Gilbertson, Telecommunications Commissioner.

“Our work [the review] shows that consumers need to ask themselves how much money they could be saving. Most mobile plans can now be changed monthly so it just might pay to shop around to see if you can find a better deal,” says Gilbertson.

NZ Compare had been working on the relaunch of Mobile Compare for a while leading up to this. NZ Compare joined with the Telecommunications Forum and the Commerce Commission to work with providers to get what Kiwis needed in order to compare.

It’s clear that Kiwis need a place to easily compare mobile plans so they can find the best deal and avoid overspending. So, NZ Compare created a website where you can do just that! 

Mobile Compare is here to ensure that Kiwis are picking the right plan for their needs! 

Kiwis can say goodbye to being misled or confused by marketing tactics. They no longer have to feel exhausted going store to store and being sold into a plan on the spot. 

By using Mobile Compare, Kiwis will have the power of knowledge. They’ll be able to make an informed decision on what’s best for them. Ultimately, this means that Kiwis will easily be able to find the perfect plan for their budget and lifestyle!
