Starlink Maritime Pricing by the Gigabyte

Starlink Maritime data works out at anywhere from $0.50 to $7 a gigabyte in this table, with monthly bills running from $250 up to $5,150 depending on the plan and the provider. The cheapest rate is Starlink's own Global Priority 500GB plan, $250 a month for 500GB. The dearest is Global Satellite's 10GB reseller plan, $300 a month for 10GB, which comes to $7 a gigabyte.

This table covers the monthly price, data allowance and cost per gigabyte for Starlink's own plans and for two resellers, each checked against a dated source. It does not cover coverage, hardware, installation, contract terms or real-world speeds, and where a top-up rate is quoted without a published base monthly price, that price is marked as not published rather than estimated.

How to read this table

Price per gigabyte here depends mostly on volume and on markup. Starlink's own Global Priority 500GB plan comes to $0.50 a gigabyte against $5 a gigabyte for its 50GB plan, though the pattern is not perfectly consistent: the 1TB plan at $650 works out at $0.65 a gigabyte, more than the 2TB plan at $1150, which comes to $0.575.

For steady, heavy use, the Starlink Global Priority 1TB or 2TB plans bought direct beat resellers on price: Global Satellite's 1TB plan at $1,400 a month comes to $2.50 a gigabyte, well above Starlink's own $0.65. For light or occasional use, Satellite Phone Store's 50GB plan at $275 a month, $5.50 a gigabyte, keeps the flat monthly bill low.

The main trap is the top-up rate once a plan's allowance is used up. Starlink's Mobile Priority and Roam Unlimited both charge $2 a gigabyte over the plan, but the Roam Unlimited top-up rises to $6 a gigabyte for data used from 27 September 2026, and Starlink Personal Maritime already charges $6 a gigabyte on top of its $185 a month base. None of these publish a base monthly price for direct comparison.

How these numbers are collected

Every row above comes from a vendor or reseller plan table, with the date we last read it in the Checked column and a link to the page it came from. The dollars-per-gigabyte column is arithmetic on those two published figures, not a quote from the seller. Rows marked ⚠ disagree with another dated reading of the same plan, and both are left in on purpose: a price that moved between two checks is information, not an error to hide.

This page is a snapshot taken on 2026-09-11, not a live feed. Satellite plans change without notice, and a reseller can quote a different number on the phone. Treat it as the starting point for a quotation, and check the source link before you commit a vessel to a contract.
