Business VoIP & Cloud Phone Systems in New Zealand

MintPhone is hosted in New Zealand, supported by a New Zealand team, and built for how Kiwi small businesses actually use phones. Cloud phones from $13 + GST per user per month.

When your phones stop, you want the people who run them on the line. MintPhone runs in New Zealand datacentres, your data stays onshore, and our own team answers when you call.

Built here. Hosted here. Fixed here.

We've been dealing with phones for New Zealand businesses for over a decade, so we know what you need when it comes to your phones.

That's why we built MintPhone. Our own apps, our own platform, running right here in Aotearoa New Zealand. No more bloated systems built for overseas needs.

  • Your calls stay in NZ

    MintPhone runs from New Zealand data centres. Your calls, recordings, voicemails and transcripts stay onshore. That's important if you hold client or patient information.

  • Call routing that fits

    Set up menus, queues and after-hours rules using our call flow builder around how your business takes calls. No overcomplicated setup. Callers reach the right person faster.

  • A local team that picks up

    When something's wrong, you talk to the people who run your phone system. No reseller in the middle. No waiting on an overseas vendor to reply.

  • AI that's actually useful

    Searchable transcripts and call summaries included with every plan. Find what was said without scribbling notes. We build our AI agents around how small businesses really work.

  • Ours, start to finish

    We run it, we support it and we build the features. When something needs fixing, we fix it. No hand-off to someone else's helpdesk.

  • Everyone gets their own settings

    Each person can manage their own phone. They can change things like voicemail, call forwarding and available hours without raising a ticket.

Microsoft Teams Phone, done properly

Some businesses live in Microsoft. If that's you, Teams Phone puts calls where your team already works. We'll set it up and look after it properly.

When Teams Phone makes sense

  • Your business runs on Microsoft 365, and your team spends all day in Teams
  • You need calls to work closely with your other Microsoft tools
  • You want calls, chat and meetings in one app

What we do for you

  • Supply your numbers and calling
  • Move your existing numbers across on a date that suits you
  • Set up your call menus, queues and routing
  • Support it with the same New Zealand team that looks after everything else

What it costs

  • Teams Phone Standard licence: $19.44 + GST per user per month
  • Number and routing: $9.99 + GST per user per month

That's $29.43 + GST per user per month all up.

No specific reason to take calls through Teams? MintPhone is usually the simpler, cheaper option.

Phone and internet FAQs

What is a cloud phone system?

It's a phone system that runs over the internet, so there's no box on the office wall. Your team answers on a desk phone, laptop or mobile, wherever they've got a connection.

Can I keep my existing phone numbers?

Yes. We bring your landline and 0800 numbers over, and your customers keep dialling the same numbers they always have.

How much does a business phone system cost?

MintPhone starts at $13 + GST per user per month for the app, or $19 + GST with a desk phone. Unlimited calling to NZ and Australia is an extra $20 + GST per user, and prices drop once you pass 35 users. Use the phone and internet calculator to work out a total for your team.

What happens to calls if the internet goes down?

Your calls divert automatically to mobiles or another number. We can also set up a backup connection to keep your desk phones working. See internet failover.

Can you do Microsoft Teams Phone?

Yes. We supply the numbers and call routing, then set it up and support it.

Should I choose MintPhone or Microsoft Teams Phone?

MintPhone suits most small businesses because it's simpler and cheaper. Go with Teams Phone if your team lives in Microsoft 365 and wants calls inside Teams.

How much does Microsoft Teams Phone cost?

It's $29.43 + GST per user per month. That covers the $19.44 Teams Phone Standard licence plus $9.99 for your number and call routing.

Where is my phone data stored?

In New Zealand. We keep your calls, recordings, voicemails and transcripts in NZ datacentres, so nothing goes offshore.

Are there contracts?

No. You're month-to-month, and you only need to give one calendar month's notice if you want to leave.

Ready for phones that just work?

Use the calculator to see what it would cost for your team, or tell us what you have today and we'll show you how a cloud phone system would run in your business.
