The easiest way to get low-cost home broadband
Kāpiti Libraries believe that everyone deserves equal opportunities to learn and thrive in our digital world. We have partnered up with the Skinny Jump service to provide super-affordable broadband to Kāpiti homes.
Skinny Jump is flexible, affordable prepaid broadband. When you sign up, you'll receive a modem with 35GB of data; after that, each top-up costs $5 for 35GB of data, with a maximum of 6 plan renewals per month. You'll get a modem at no cost, but you'll need to return it if you stop using Skinny Jump.
Is Skinny Jump for you?
Skinny Jump is for those who don't have a broadband connection at home because cost is a barrier.
We specifically support those most at risk of digital exclusion, as identified in the government's digital inclusion blueprint. If one or more of the following sounds like you, then you will be eligible for the service:
- Families with children
- Job seekers
- Seniors
- People with disabilities
- Refugees and migrant communities
- Those residing in social housing
You will also need to have Skinny mobile network coverage at your home address.
