Elon Musk’s SpaceX rolled out new prices for domestic Starlink clients based on the company’s capacity to deliver service, according to emails to clients reviewed by AFLM.
The changes, outlined on Tuesday, resolve residential users of its satellite internet service into areas of “ limited capacity ”and “extra capacity. ”Prices will rise $10 per month, to$ 120, for users in limited capacity areas, while prices will drop $20 a month, to $90, for those in extra capacity areas. The new pricing will take effect on April 24.
The company also made changes to pricing for its RV clients, adding the service cost by $15 a month to $150.
The price adjustments come about a year after SpaceX hiked prices across the board for products and services, citing “extreme situations of inflation.
SpaceX continues to expand its Starlink network through regular satellite launches, with nearly 4,000 launched to date. Its service reached 1 million subscribers in December and it’s steadily expanding its product offerings selling services to residential, business, RV, maritime and aviation clients.
before this month, SpaceX leadership enunciated that Starlink “had a cash flow positive quarter ”in 2022 as it works to make the business profitable.
