Starlink reveals service plans and costs ahead of launch

Elon Musk’s Starlink is set to launch its satellite internet service in Ghana by the end of August 2024, offering various service plans tailored to meet different user needs. 

This marks a significant development in the country’s internet landscape, with Starlink poised to become a formidable competitor in the global market.

Starlink’s internet service relies on a network of low-earth orbit (LEO) satellites, which are capable of delivering internet speeds exceeding 100 Mbps in certain areas. 

This advanced technology provides faster and more reliable connections compared to traditional satellite services.

To access Starlink’s service, customers will need to purchase the required hardware, priced at GHC5,390, with an additional shipping fee of GHC354.

Below is a breakdown of the available service plans:

Standard Plan:

• Cost: GHC770 per month

Priority Plan:

• Cost: GHC1,078 per month

Mobile Plan:

• Details: Targets remote workers, campers, and businesses operating across various locations. It offers unlimited mobile data within Ghana, with prices increasing based on the required level of priority data.
