How to Order and Pay for Starlink Internet in Nigeria 

Published

on

Since Elon Musk revealed via Twitter that Starlink, the Internet Service Provider operated by his business SpaceX, is expanding to Nigeria, the internet has been a hive of activity in classic Elon Musk fashion. Thirty-two nations presently have access to Starlink’s services, which offer internet connection via low-earth orbit (LEO) satellites.

1,500 of the more than 2,000 satellites that Starlink deployed last year are in use. It is now simpler for remote communities and locations that cannot reach by ordinary service providers to have internet connectivity thanks to these satellites.

Is Starlink better than other Nigerian internet providers?

Nigerians often use data bundles from providers like 9mobile, Airtel Nigeria, Spectranet, and MTNN to access the internet. However, customers of these services commonly express frustration over their poor internet connections and ongoing, inexplicable outages.

In stark contrast to the typical cellular internet speed of 17.38Mbps, Starlink is recognized for its amazing 104Mbps internet speed. Additionally, using LEO satellites should significantly reduce internet outages and the absence of network signals in remote locations.

How much does Starlink cost in Nigeria?

In less than 30 minutes, a Starlink device may be set up and ready to use. A one-time equipment fee of roughly $599 (or roughly N438,000), $60 (or roughly N25,000) for shipping, and a monthly subscription of $43(N31,390) make up the cost of Starlink in Nigeria.

The whole kit for the premium service costs close to $2,500 (N1.375 million) and a monthly fee of $500 (N275,000). 

The Starlink kit, which includes a wifi router, terminal, and mounting tripod, is easy to assemble.

How can I order Starlink from Nigeria?

You can pre-order the Starlink kit by paying a deposit on Starlink’s website using a domiciled dollar card.
