In the red corner, weighing in as the new kid on the block, we have Kiwi Mobile..
A plucky contender who’s been in the ring for just a few months. And in the blue corner? The established heavyweights of the industry, with years of experience, big-name recognition, and even bigger budgets.
Against the odds, Kiwi Mobile came out swinging, and took home the coveted NZ Compare People’s Choice Award 2024!
Who doesn’t love a plucky underdog story right?
We entered the mobile market not just to challenge (and at times annoy) the big dogs, but to help Kiwis save money.
Our goal is simple: stop people wasting cash on fast data they don’t use while ensuring they never have to worry about running out.
It’s pretty damn epic that this sentiment (along with the award-winning service you’ve come to expect from us) has struck the right chord with the members of the public who voted.
We’ll keep moving and making things even better based on feedback. In fact that’s what we did very recently with our Choice Plan. The top tier has now been upgraded from 100GB to UNLIMITED fast data (at the same daily price for that tier). Fair use policy applies.
We won’t be getting complacent, and safe to say there is more to come.
Kiwi Mobiles’ win in the Peoples Choice Mobile category is a remarkable achievement. The public voting has highlighted the immediate impact and trust that they’ve built as a brand new offering in the market.

The grizzled veterans at Electric Kiwi have still got it
Under the Electric Kiwi banner we also took home the NZ Compare award for Best Customer Support – Power.
This one was decided by a panel of expert judges rather than the public – but it’s just as satisfying. In the midst of what’s likely the most tumultuous power market conditions we’ve ever seen, it’s great to be recognised for delivering top-notch service.
Awesome service aside, we’re focused on delivering innovation to help Kiwis save on their power bills. Our Hour of Power and off-peak rates reward you for shifting power to cheaper, greener times of the day. Our hot water automation can even do it for you.
And as always, we will keep the pressure on the government and regulators to fix this broken market!
What’s the story with NZ Compare and their awards?
In their own words “NZ Compare came to fruition on the belief that Kiwis deserve to make fully informed choices about their utility bills and purchases.“
They have a range of user friendly comparison platforms that are designed to help Kiwis compare and save, without bias or obligation. Which in our books, sounds like a win.
For those avid bargain hunters out there amongst us, they’re the same folks behind Priceme.
So why not give Kiwi Mobile a go?
You’ll get all the fast data you need, exactly when you need it – and you only pay for what you use. Plus, unlimited standard texts and calls to NZ and Australia. All with no contracts, no sneaky notice periods, or any of that nonsense.
Check out https://www.kiwimobile.co.nz/ for all the details. There’s even a handy little slider on the page to give you an idea of how much you could save.
To prove the People’s Choice award win wasn’t a fluke, we recently asked current Kiwi Mobile customers to rate their experience with us. The result? An epic average rating of 8.4 out of 10! Just in case you needed a little extra encouragement.
