Teased by One as “something exciting coming soon”. Does anyone know what this is?

Yes.

It’s “Your new way to your next phone”. But that’s all I can say.

On the main screen of the My One NZ app you should have a “One Wallet (Beta)” tile. AFAIK there isn’t any other public facing mention of this.

Well, that page says pretty much all you need to know:

 

 

It’s a digi-wallet in the My One NZ app, where you build a balance of One Wallet dollars to put towards your next phone.

 

When it’s time for an upgrade, head into one of our participating stores to use your balance and spread what's left to pay over a 12, 24 or 36 month interest free term, with an eligible Pay Monthly plan.

Looks like a reward points scheme that gives you a discount on the next phone you buy from One. Bit thin on info as to how to acrue the points in the first place, other than claiming offers in the app.

I don’t think this is meant to be publicly visible yet… it’s not linked in the site nav and doesn’t come up in search.

Also, this hasn’t launched yet (not even internally) so anything you see about it now will be subject to change.

Elite hacker nothing, obvious url must rank a close second to leaving the edit history available in a Word doc as a classic mistake.

I think he was being sarcastic.

As noted obvious URL is... Obvious.

Yikes this complicated, admin heavy and way too much for the typical person. Tradein programs are easier.

Yay just what we all wanted.....another rewards apps and card etc etc... 

 

Yeh, I know... its something for nothing (well thats the illusion).  

 

 

 

and dare I say... yet another spam email each week telling us what our balance is and whats happening in the world unrelated to anything...
