It’s easy! Just pop into your nearest 2degrees store at a time that suits you. Because we need to have a look at your employment ID before we sign you up, we’re unable to complete the process over the phone or online. (For Teacher Aides, a teacher registration letter or Ministry of Education registration letter is required. This does not include student teachers as we already provide a student discount.
When you join us, you’ll see Kiwi Hero Plan price on your first bill.
If you’re already with us, you’ll see your Kiwi Hero Plan price on the first bill you receive after you’ve signed up.
Yes, you can have a Kiwi Hero Plan as the Group Plan leader and add Group Plan members, you can ask our Care team for more details.
No problems, since you’ve done your bit for NZ we think it’s only fair you keep the specially discounted Kiwi Hero Plan pricing for as long as you stay on an eligible Kiwi Hero Plan with us.
