About Skinny in New Zealand
Skinny is one of the 4 prepaid networks operating in New Zealand, with the dial code +64. Refills are denominated in NZD and settle on the carrier under 60 seconds after our payment confirms on chain.
You don't need a Skinny account, the New Zealand MyCarrier app, a local bank or any in-store kiosk — just the phone number and the crypto. The credit shows up on the SIM exactly the same way as if you'd topped it up at a corner store.
Skinny mobile top-up · FAQ
Can I top up Skinny with Bitcoin?
Yes. Pay in Bitcoin (BTC), Monero (XMR), Ethereum (ETH), USDT (TRC/ERC/SOL), Litecoin (LTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Solana (SOL), Dogecoin (DOGE), Dash (DASH), Tron (TRX) or BNB. The Skinny line in New Zealand gets credited within minutes of your deposit confirming on chain.
How fast does the Skinny credit land?
Carrier-side, Skinny typically posts the credit within 30 seconds of our settlement message. End-to-end (you click pay → SIM has credit) it's usually 1-3 minutes on fast chains (LTC, TRX, SOL), up to 10 minutes on slower ones (BTC).
What's the cheapest crypto for a Skinny refill?
For small refills (under $50 USD-equivalent), USDT-TRC20, Tron (TRX), Litecoin (LTC) or Solana (SOL) keep network fees to single cents. Bitcoin works fine but BTC fees can be disproportionate for small top-ups — pick a cheaper chain instead.
Do I need a Skinny or New Zealand account?
No. We talk to Skinny on the back end with the phone number alone. No MySkinny portal login, no SIM swap, no local bank, no in-store kiosk. Just enter the number, pick the amount, pay in crypto.
Will Skinny or the recipient see I paid in crypto?
No. Skinny sees a routine top-up at the local face value (NZD). The recipient sees the new balance on their SIM. Neither sees the funding source, your email, or any other payment metadata. From the SIM's side it's identical to a corner-store refill.
