Is Starlink too expensive for Africa? 2025 pricing breakdown for Nigeria and Kenya
- Starlink offers high-speed internet access to underserved rural communities in Africa.
- The Starlink Standard Kit costs approximately ₦590,000 ($406.83) in Nigeria and KSh 49,900 ($386.07) in Kenya.
- Monthly subscription fees for Starlink in Nigeria start at ₦57,000 ($39.29) and in Kenya at KSh 4,000 ($30.95).
While Starlink has the potential to revolutionize internet access in remote areas of Africa, its current pricing strategy limits its reach to only a small segment of the population. A reevaluation of pricing or subsidized options could enhance its role in promoting digital inclusion and bridging the connectivity gap.
