Spark Sport customers will be paying more for their sport with a hike in price coming in time for New Zealand's summer of cricket.
From September, Spark Sport's monthly subscription will rise from $19.99 to $24.99, the sports streaming provider said in an email to customers today.
However, those on an eligible Spark Pay Monthly mobile or Broadband plan can add Spark Sport to their Spark bill for $24.99 per month and automatically receive a $5 monthly credit on their monthly Spark bill.
A spokeswoman for Spark Sport said the new price point was still great value for customers and very competitive in the market.
