Starlink rolls out instalment payments for internet kits in Kenya
- Starlink introduced instalment payments for mini kits in Kenya to reduce upfront costs.
- The new plan requires an upfront payment of KES 6,750 plus activation and shipping fees.
- The monthly payment for the kit is KES 4,500 over six months, making it more affordable.
Starlink's move to introduce instalment payments is a strategic response to market challenges and could enhance its competitiveness in Kenya. However, the company must address capacity issues and consider expanding its infrastructure to regain momentum and fend off competition from established telcos.
