DStv subscribers in Zimbabwe will see slight increases in their subscription fees beginning June 1, 2025, following an official price adjustment announced by MultiChoice Zimbabwe.
In a notice released on Monday, the broadcaster confirmed that while some subscription packages will maintain their current prices, several popular bouquets will experience modest increases ranging between US$1 and US$2. The company did not provide a detailed explanation for the changes.
Subscribers to the DStv Premium and Lite packages can breathe a sigh of relief, as these two offerings will remain unchanged. The Premium bouquet will continue to cost US$75 per month, while the budget-friendly Lite package will hold steady at US$9.
However, several mid-tier and entry-level packages will see price increases. The Compact Plus bouquet will go up from US$45 to US$46, the Family bouquet will rise from US$20 to US$21, and the Access bouquet will increase from US$15 to US$16. The most notable adjustment affects the DStv Compact package, which will increase by US$2, from US$30 to US$32 per month.
Specialised content packages, including the Indian and Portuguese offerings, will remain unaffected. The Indian Stand Alone (Premium) will continue at US$39, the Indian Add-on at US$25, the Portuguese Stand Alone at US$45, and the Portuguese Add-on at US$25. The HD PVR service also remains unchanged at US$13.
MultiChoice Zimbabwe confirmed that the revised pricing will apply to both satellite and streaming subscriptions. The company has not issued a specific justification for the selective adjustments but noted that the changes are part of its ongoing review of services and costs.
