Renewing your pack
All our Value Packs and Data Lovers Packs are set to auto renew every 4 weeks.
You can Auto Renew with debit or credit card which automatically buys your extra from your debit or credit card each month. Or you can renew automatically with your prepaid balance. Go to Ways to top up
To ensure you have sufficient balance we recommend you set up Auto Top Up. If your balance is less than needed we'll text you to let you know you need to top up. If you don't top up we will text you to let you know the subscription has been placed on hold for up to five days. You will be charged at the Prepaid Plans casual rates over this time. If you don't top up we will text you to let you know the subscription has not been renewed and then you'll be able to top up and re-purchase a subscription. If you do top up during this 5 day period please note your original renewal date will stay the same (for example if you purchased your Value Pack on 21 October and did not have enough credit to automatically renew on 18 November but you top up on 22 November your extra next renewal date will be 16 December). To make the most of your Value Pack we encourage you to top up before your renewal date.
If your Auto Renew card payment fails your Value Pack or Extra will be put on hold for five days. You'll need to top up to complete the purchase of your Value Pack or Extra.
Things you should know - Rollover
How Rollover works
Prepaid Rollover only applies to minute and data allowances included in Spark Rollover Prepaid Packs. Endless and Unlimited allowances, Socialiser Data, Mobile extras. You may use your Rollover allowance while you remain on a Rollover Pack. If you move to an ineligible Pack, extra or Casual Rates (including where your eligible Pack failed to renew at the end of its cycle) your Rollover allowance will be frozen. A 365 day expiry period applies to rollover allowances, including when frozen will continue to run. If you purchase an eligible Pack within the expiry period, you can continue using your Rollover allowance up until expiry and also accrue new Rollover allowances.
The maximum amount of Rollover you can accumulate is 3.5GB of data and 500 NZ minutes. Once you’ve reached the Rollover maximum, any new quantity will replace the corresponding quantity of oldest data or minutes. Rollover allowance is used in order of expiry, and quantities expiring soonest will always be used first.
The allowances available to you will be used in the following order:
- Any allowance included in your Pack or extra, in order of expiry
- Any rollover allowance accumulated
You can use the Spark App or the MySpark dashboard to check accumulated rollover and expiry dates.
