Leading pay television service provider MultiChoice Nigeria plans to offer a support package for DStv and GOtv subscribers. In a message to subscribers on Monday, the company stated that starting from 1 March, new tariffs will apply to DStv and GOtv packages.
According to the company, DStv and GOtv subscribers who renew their subscriptions before the expiration date will be exempt from the new rates for a specified time as a reward for their loyalty. Additionally, subscribers on both platforms can take advantage of extra benefits through the Step Up offer, which began in January and will continue until March 31.
The Step Up offer expands access to premium content by enabling both active and disconnected DStv and GOtv subscribers to enjoy content beyond their current package through an automatic upgrade to a higher package on payment for a package above their current subscription.
As part of the palliative package, MultiChoice will announce a reduction in the subscription for Showmax, its streaming service, on 28 February. This aims to provide customers with more affordable access to live sports, movies, and general entertainment.
The latest price review puts the cost of DStv Compact bouquet N19,000 and Compact Plus at N30,000. DStv and the Premium subscription will rise to N44,500.
Similarly, GOtv Supa customers will henceforth pay N16,800, while those on Supa will pay N11,400. The tariff on GOtv Max moves to N8,500, while that of GOtv Jinja moves to N3,900.
These adjustments come as MultiChoice seeks to balance operational costs with continued access to premium entertainment for its subscribers.
