The presence of Starlink in the African internet market is more than just a pricing battle—it represents a shift in how internet access is delivered. With cheaper satellite options, countries with weak broadband infrastructure have an opportunity to accelerate connectivity without massive ground-based investments. As competition heats up, traditional ISPs may have to innovate and restructure their pricing models to remain relevant. Meanwhile, for consumers, more options mean better access to affordable and reliable internet, a crucial step toward closing the digital divide across Africa. For now, in countries like Zimbabwe, Ghana, Kenya, and Cape Verde, Starlink is setting a new benchmark for affordability. Whether it will continue to disrupt pricing in places like Botswana and Zambia remains to be seen, but one thing is certain—Africa’s internet landscape is changing, and Starlink is at the heart of this transformation.
