Breaking: Starlink doubles subscription price in Nigeria to ₦75,000
- Starlink has doubled its base subscription prices in Nigeria.
- The standard residential plan now costs ₦75,000 ($48), up from ₦38,000 ($24).
- Local roaming costs have increased to ₦167,000 per month from ₦49,000.
The steep price increases for Starlink services in Nigeria suggest a lack of competitive pricing strategies compared to other markets like Kenya. This could alienate existing customers and deter potential new subscribers, especially in a region already struggling with high inflation. Starlink may need to reconsider its pricing model and introduce more flexible options to remain competitive.
