DStv and GOtv package prices in Kenya (2026)
By David Wachira · MultiChoice Kenya hub · paybillke is an independent guide and is not affiliated with MultiChoice Kenya.
From 5 November 2026 DStv Kenya has four packages: Starter KES 750, Select KES 1,500, Sports KES 3,000 (every Premier League match) and Ultimate KES 7,300 a month, according to DStv Kenya on 26 October 2026. Until 4 November the current prices apply: DStv runs from KES 750 a month (Lite) to KES 11,700 (Premium). GOtv runs from KES 299 (Lite) to KES 3,199 (Supa+). Both ladders below were read off dstv.com/en-ke and gotvafrica.com/en-ke on 13 September 2026. The paybill takes the exact package amount, not a round number.
Pay the exact amount
The GOtv Lite trick nobody prints
GOtv Lite is the only Kenyan pay-TV package sold on three billing cycles, and GOtv publishes all three: KES 299 monthly, KES 650 quarterly, KES 1,500 annually. Nobody converts those to a like-for-like monthly figure, so here it is.
- Monthly: KES 299 a month.
- Quarterly: 650 over three months, so KES 217 a month. You save about 27%.
- Annual: 1,500 over twelve months, so KES 125 a month. You save about 58%.
Paying for a year up front costs less than five months at the monthly rate. If GOtv Lite is what you watch and the cash is there in one go, the annual plan is the largest single saving available anywhere on the Kenyan pay-TV ladder. The trade is liquidity: KES 1,500 you cannot get back if you move house or switch provider in March.
