The Starlink constellation is currently offering a one-year subscription for free if you would like to test out satellite internet
A more and more common option for connecting anywhere is satellite internet. It's very useful for travel, camping, second homes, and more. The most well-known company is Starlink. It offers coverage in most parts of the world for a monthly subscription. However, the cost of acquiring this setup has always been high. Now, you can save yourself that.
If you subscribe to Starlink for at least 12 months, the kit will be free. You'll be able to try it out without having to make a significant financial investment. We'll talk to you about this. We'll let you know if this is a truly interesting option for web browsing.
Until now, to sign up for Starlink, you had to pay for the kit. This included the antenna and the router. This was a significant investment, costing €349. For someone who wanted to try it, this could be a deterrent and may result in a rejection of the service.
Now, Starlink has decided to offer the kit free to all subscribers of the service for 12 months. This way, anyone who wants to try it will avoid paying a lot of money for the kit.
But does this mean you'll have to pay more each month? The answer is no. The monthly rate will remain the same. Therefore, these benefits are only available to every customer who decides to subscribe to Starlink where this new feature is implemented.
If for any reason you decide to cancel your subscription before those 12 months, you will have to pay the proportionate portion. For example, if you are there for six months, you will pay half the cost of that package. Logically, the most important thing is to remain a subscriber throughout the year and benefit from being exempt from having to pay those €349.
Another interesting point is that you can try Starlink for a month without having to pay anything. After that time, if you don't want to continue, all you have to do is return the kit and you won't have to pay anything extra. These 30-day trials are another way the company is building trust and encouraging more users to try its services.
The monthly price will depend on the subscription you choose. Currently, Residential Lite is €29, and Residential Lite is €40. There are also roaming rates, meaning you can use it in different locations. In this case, the price is €40 per month with up to 50 GB of roaming and €72 per month with unlimited roaming.
