About 18 months after customers first started signing up, SpaceX has increased the fees for its internet-from-space Starlink service.
SpaceX’s Starlink internet service has raised its prices for the first time since it started serving customers in October 2020.
So, for new customers, the starter kit comprising the satellite dish and other equipment now costs $599, up from $499, while the monthly service fee will rise to $110 per month, up from $99, for all customers. “Due to excessive levels of inflation, the price of the Starlink kit is increasing from $499 to $549 for deposit holders, and $599 for all new orders,” Starlink said in the email to customers, adding that the new price will begin applying to subscriptions on April 22, 2022.
