For viewers in New Zealand, the useful comparison is the channels, languages and viewing times in their household. Make a shortlist of the local and international programmes you actually watch, then compare the current catalogue and total plan cost with your existing TV package.
Test playback in New Zealand on the device and network you normally use, including your usual evening viewing time. This page does not establish regional server performance or a service history in New Zealand. A 4K or 8K label is not a guarantee for every programme: confirm the available feed and playback quality during your trial.

Internet connection: If you use Spark, Vodafone NZ, 2degrees, Orcon, Slingshot, Trustpower or another provider in New Zealand, test on that actual connection. An ISP name or advertised download speed does not establish playback quality. Check your usual Wi-Fi or wired setup during the trial.
VPN use: If you use a VPN, test your chosen configuration separately. This guide does not establish VPN performance, access in a particular region or a remedy for an ISP issue. See Help if playback needs troubleshooting.

FAQ — IPTV in New Zealand
Is IPTV legal in New Zealand?
This guide does not establish permission to distribute a particular channel or programme in New Zealand. A working stream or a channel name is not evidence of those permissions. Check current local guidance and ask the provider for rights information before purchasing. Our legal guide explains questions to ask.
Do you have local New Zealand channels?
Use the local names above as a checklist. Confirm the specific station, regional feed and language in the current trial catalogue or with support; this guide does not promise every local channel.
What internet speed do I need?
Test the channels and resolutions you want on your normal connection. Available speed, stability, Wi-Fi, the device and the feed can all affect playback; a speed figure alone does not establish the result.
Can I pay in local currency?
Plans are priced in USD. Review the currency and final converted amount shown by your chosen payment method before confirming payment.
What if I need help?
Our 24/7 support team is available via live chat and email. Visit our Help Center or Troubleshooting Guide.
