Where the Oceania plan works
The Oceania plan is one profile across Australia, New Zealand and Tonga. It’s a short list, and that’s the honest state of the catalogue rather than a curated selection.
Plans run from $6.50 for 1 GB over 7 days to $49.50 for 20 GB over 30 days. A month of driving both islands and the Australian east coast wants 10 GB ($30).
The network choice matters more here than almost anywhere. In Australia the plan attaches to Telstra, whose rural and outback footprint is far ahead of the alternatives. On a coastal city trip any network is fine; on the Stuart Highway or across the Nullarbor it is the difference between having a phone and carrying one. New Zealand runs on Spark.
Coverage: 5G in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. Solid LTE along the Australian highway network and both New Zealand islands’ main routes. Then nothing — the Nullarbor, the Tanami, the Kimberley, Fiordland, the Great Walks and the alpine passes.
A word about remote Australia. No mobile plan covers the outback properly, ours included. If you’re driving genuinely remote routes, carry a satellite messenger or a PLB. That’s what locals do, and it is not a substitute a data plan can offer.
Single country? Australia from $5.50 and New Zealand from $6. Wider trip? The Asia plan from $11.50 or the Global plan from $14.

How to install it
- 1
Buy in a minute
Pick a Oceania plan and pay. Your QR code arrives by email in seconds — no account, no shipping.
- 2
Install on Wi-Fi
Scan the code before you fly. The profile sits alongside your normal SIM and stays switched off until you need it.
- 3
Land connected
Turn on data roaming for the TravelNet line when you arrive. The plan starts counting down on that first connection, not at checkout.
Will my phone work?
You need an eSIM-capable, carrier-unlocked phone: an iPhone XS or newer, a Pixel 3 or
newer, or a recent Samsung Galaxy S, Z or A-series flagship. Dial *#06# — if
an EID number is listed alongside the IMEI, the phone has an eSIM.

One profile, one allowance, no swapping SIMs at a border.
Oceania eSIM questions
Which countries does the Oceania plan cover?
Three: Australia, New Zealand and Tonga. It's a short list — these are the Pacific destinations the old TravelNet catalogue carried, and we'd rather show three honestly than pad the number.
Is it cheaper than country plans?
It's line-ball. Australia starts at $5.50 and New Zealand at $6, against $6.50 for the regional plan. If you're doing both — which most people on this route are — the regional plan saves you a second install and a switch mid-trip.
Which network will I be on?
Telstra in Australia, Spark in New Zealand, Digicel in Tonga. In Australia the choice genuinely matters: Telstra's rural and outback coverage is far ahead of the alternatives, which is exactly what you want on a road trip.
Is 5G available?
Yes in Australian and New Zealand cities and larger towns. Regional areas run on 4G/LTE, which in Australia reaches surprisingly far along the highway network. Tonga is 4G/LTE.
How much data do I need for a month in Australia and New Zealand?
10 GB ($30) for a month of driving with all-day navigation. 5 GB ($19.50) for a couple of weeks based in cities with hotel Wi-Fi. Both countries are heavy on maps and booking apps.
Will I have signal in the Australian outback?
Along the main highways and in the towns, yes — Telstra's reach is genuinely good. Off the highway is a different country: the Nullarbor, the Tanami, most of the Kimberley and large stretches of the Stuart Highway have nothing. Anyone driving remote routes in Australia should carry a satellite messenger, not just a phone plan. That's standard local advice, not a disclaimer.
What about New Zealand's South Island?
Towns, the main highways and the tourist routes are covered — Queenstown, Wanaka, Franz Josef, Te Anau. Fiordland, the Great Walks and the alpine passes lose signal quickly. Download offline maps for any tramping.
Does it cover Fiji, Samoa or the other Pacific islands?
No. Only Australia, New Zealand and Tonga are in this plan. The wider Pacific isn't in the catalogue — if that changes, it'll be listed on the destinations page rather than quietly folded into this one.
Do I need to register the eSIM?
No. Australia requires identity verification for locally bought prepaid SIMs; a roaming eSIM doesn't trigger it.
Can I tether?
Yes, in all three. Useful on a campervan trip, where the eSIM is often the only internet you have.
